Who will win the YouTube battle for #1?

[islandguy11]

Joey King of DYI, was the first aquarium related YouTuber to reach 1,000,000 subscribers, quite a milestone love/hate him. He currently has about 1.2 million subs. Paul Cuffaro, who is much younger and started quite a bit later, has now skyrocketed to 1.1 millions subs (even if quite a few more experienced fish keepers think he's kind of a joke and bad influence on naive young kids).

By contrast Cory from Aquarium Co-Op, while also growing at a pretty fast clip, just hit a 'mere' 300,000 subs -- despite very arguably knowing more about proper fish keeping than the other 2 put together (not that I love everything about his style either) -- which imho just goes to show how important looks/appearance usually are to 'super' YouTube success (of course we can see the same with female YouTubers as well).

Anyway I'm not making this post to turn any YouTuber into a punching bag (we know where that will lead lol) -- at that level it's really a lot of work/time/energy pumping out videos, and they all have their good and bad points -- I'm mostly wondering who do you think will come out as the YouTube aqua champ?

Also feel free to mention your favorite fish keeping-related channel even if they're not currently at the top (Ben Ochart, Predatory Fins and Prime Time Aquatics are 3 that I often watch, as well as DebTim a Canadian Girl, she's such a sweet lady).

No clue, but I do watch those 3 guys, if not religiously.

My favorite has actually become Dexter's World.

It's a view into a world far, far from mine, where this guy takes you into the world of primitive fishkeeping in the Philippines.
He's a sort of charity worker too, going out to the jungle to buy fish and help breeders in primitive conditions.
Dexter has 290k subs, so pretty well known.

I'm not jealous of you, I'm jealous of my damn fish. I risk my life in extreme sports videos and am lucky to get 500-2,000 views and 4 or 5 likes. My Kamfa's best video has over 46,000 views and 354 likes sob...

And you now have 2 subs -- you (and my darn Kamfa) are on your way to YouTube stardom bro!

I watch the three of them Joey and Paul are kinda both DBs while Cory to me is more down to earth and likable. Joey is more energy a different kind of show and tbh Paul is ok I've watched him a few times but far more joey (love to hate) and cory (good guy trying to help).
If I had to guess its going to be Joey one more reason for me to hate him lol.

I'm not a fan of Joey.
