I think we're a part of the "dedicated fanbase" audience which will appreciate whatever Adam does as long as he's dedicated to it. We aren't really the majority of people who bring in the big bucks and views or whatnot (unless Adam sets up a Patreon), but we're the ones who watch fish videos and listen to podcasts on Taylor Swift and working out. An estimation of our numbers could probably be drawn out from the podcast listens and recent fish video views, so maybe that's worth looking into and measuring to see the difference between the "general audience" and the "dedicated fanbase"

There's a cool farm I saw in the Philippines. In tagalog it is called Palay-isdaan. Rice paddies surrounded with fishes, acted as both pest control and nitrites from fish poop provided natural nitrogen feeds to the rice paddies.

Wild story in relation to the topic of eating medaka. Tatsuki Fujimoto (the creator of the series Chainsaw Man) once had a pet medaka. When it eventually died his girlfriend told him to bury it, but the soil was too hard, so he left it on the ground. The sight of ants carrying away the fish made him sad, so he got rid of the ants and proceeded to eat the medaka. The next day he had gastroenteritis and lied to his girlfriend about what caused the illness.

All the fish vids lately have been great; count me in for the build video. You definitely have me thinking about starting a new tank, and I'd really like to try my hand with some Medaka.

The grain crop that typically yields the highest calories per acre is corn (maize). Corn is known for its high carbohydrate content, which contributes to its high caloric density. This makes it an efficient crop in terms of calories produced per unit of land. Other grains like rice, wheat, and soybeans also have significant caloric yields, but generally, corn is the leader in terms of calorie production per acre. This efficiency is one of the reasons corn is a staple crop in many agricultural systems around the world.

@@runwords_ adding onto this thought that most corn grown is as feed for livestock, esp for finishing cattle before slaughter. this type of corn too is less useful for human consumption, and has to be processed, eg milled into flour and nixtamalized. corn does however have a unique photosynthetic pathway that enables it to use much less water than most plants, and there has been novel research into inducing this in other plants by transferring the correct genes over.

Since you mentioned Indonesia in your video, any chance you might explore a little bit about some of Indonesian cuisine? Especially when you want to make one of the best soup Indonesia has to offer: Rawon. It is made using Kluwak (or Keluwak), which gives the soup its black colour and is poisonous if not treated correctly. You will probably have fun exploring the chemical properties of the plant and why it is used.

Wow, these rice fish are like the unsung heroes of the aquatic world! But you know what's even more fascinating? The way that eel-looking guy (who's not an eel) casually gulps air - talk about living life on the edge. Reminds me of the "What happened to our stash?" dilemma from "We Need Cash." Anyway, it's like the rice fish are the secret agents of the aquarium world, thriving in conditions others find challenging. And that 18th-century painting with the girls and the madaka in a glass beaker is practically an ancient version of an Instagram post - timeless and quirky. By the way, have you ever tried preserving rice fish like anchovies? Apparently, it's a thing, and they describe it as pleasantly bitter. Life in a fishbowl just got a whole lot more interesting!

Speaking of inbreeding, I had 4 generations (it took roughly more than 1 year) which resulted in bent spines and fish that are out of shape after a succession of keeping them in just 1 or 2 tanks (I wasn't experience of them then). It's best to separate them but it's hard to tell newer generations apart. Colorful varieties can also lead to beige off-springs, which is their natural color, or even a white/silver color.
