Nick Bingo at it again

[ThatPhillyReefer]

I have seen this topic before a about Nick and I thought I should get my anger out a little.

If you dont know who Nick Bingo is, he is a youtuber who vlogs and loves to keep fish and other exotic animals. He is most known for his Saltwater Pool Pond, Yes a saltwater pool pond.

He recently uploaded a video of him stocking his new 200g saltwater tank. Though the video he shows himself picking out new fish for the tank (Not to mention he is just picking fish he likes but doesn’t know how to care for). As he is picking his fish he picks up a Ribbon Eel, if anyone doesn’t know Ribbon Eels are very picky and if not fed properly they will eat the small fish in the tank. Nick also picks out some clowns and 2 firefish. Lastly Nick picks 3 tangs, Hippo Tang, Powder Blue, and Powder Brown.

If you put two types of Acanthurus Tangs together they will fight til the death, but Nick doesn’t care and still adds them together.

The reason I am making this is to tell anyone in the hobby to not take advice from him PLEASE. He is giving wrong advice to his viewers who then will go do the same and hurt these animals. I hate talking about anyone but when you go and give wrong advice to people who “trust” you its sad.

If this offends anyone I am sorry, I just wanted to make people aware of what he is doing is wrong.

YouTube is the devil

Its sad that there are some people out there who dont care about the animals just views and money

Yeah Nick and his buddy Paul are disgusting. This is the fourth time he's stocked that 200g and I think he's on the third pool pond at this point, every time he's re stocked them he either says nothing or says 'the fish got too big'. In the beginning he would openly show very sick fish and talk about how happy and healthy they are as they gasp at the surface, and every nano tank he's kept has disappeared inexplicably. All of his reptiles have died too.
People of this latest generation have no brains, coming from one of them. Some crap happened between now and 20 years ago and it seriously knocked the nuclear family out of balance.
The biggest problem with these people is that they have no limits on money. Nick lives with his rich parents and they buy him everything he wants, and Paul was the same deal (he lives in his own house now, but his folks pay for it). They were babies their whole lives and have yet to feel the consequences of anything they do wrong, because their parents pay them out of their problems.

Nick, Paul, and anyone they call friends are cancerous and do not take advice from them. They are yuppy rich boys who can't take failure and like getting what they want, nothing more and nothing less.

Thank you for posting! I agree, Youtube has destroyed so much and continues to do so.
If those were dogs or roosters, he'd be in jail...

Slippery slope when you start yelling and telling ppl how to spend their money.

You have zero control in this situation.

Well I guess you could move to his township, run for a County Commissioner seat and vote in an Ordinance

Worry about your own tank bruh....lol

I believe the main point of this thread is to bring awareness to his crap, I for one went overboard with it though, sorry about that. I feel no need to justify what I said, but I do acknowledge that it was uneccesary.

i said nothing about how he spends his money. I was warning fellow hobbyist about what he is doing and don’t learn from him

 

[Karen00]

While I don't agree with calling out how people spend their money I do believe in calling out people who are promoting bad practices (in this hobby or any other hobby) and even more so if they're harming living creatures.

 

[Cell]

So stop giving him views.

Exactly, i could care less how people spend their money but i seen he was slowly harming these beautiful fish i had to say something

I think you are overestimating his influence on knowledgeable reefers

There plenty on r2r that do the same

Amen Amen Amen

Pointing out bad things only promotes it

It's not the knowledgable reefers I'm worried about. ;-)

They are not yuppy, rich boys who only care about money, I don't approve of his ways either but that doesn't mean he only cares about the money. You can tell he cares about his fish and is actually a very nice person in general. Same with Paul but he is actually educated and stuff.

It hasn't destroyed every thing, there some really good YouTubers out there in the fish keeping hobby, and reptile keeping and any other hobby you can think of

did you join the forum to make these comments? Your account is pretty new, plus you've not introduced yourself yet, plus this thread is over a month old.

Welcome to the forum BTW, glad to have some new blood. No hard feelings, I'm just a bit confused by the circumstances.
