‎ Cory visited Aquahaus-Gaus, probably the largest African cichlid wholesaler on the planet with more than 2500 aquariums holding over 1 million liters of water. This warehouse also serves as a Malawi cichlid breeding facility and general fish store for the public. If you are looking for a specific African cichlid species, color variant, and size, they probably have it. Amazingly, this giant facility is technically a mom-and-pop store that is run by a husband and wife with only 3 employees. Find out how this small team is able to run such a high end and massive operation.

*Are you an African cichlid keeper? What was your favorite species spotted on screen?*

[@amazingaquaticsandexotics3030]

yellow labs

[@CopperCanyonTerrapins]

I would love to be able to order some of their yellow labs and demansoni!!

[@michealfaulkner5612]

The Lethrinops Red Caps. I really enjoyed this video as an African Cichlids keeper and would say that’s has to be the single best collection of those under one roof. Period.

[@gordonband1284]

Red Cap Lethrinops

[@jawjagrrl]

I used to be..mostly Mbuna. Really loved that one that I don't think got named, but it's head looked like rainbow sherbet. Never seen one anything like that before. Seeing adult demonsoni, etc was really great too. I wish there was a time machine to FF the US hobby somewhere remotely on the level of Europe and Asia.

[@Dracobear13]

As a 30 yr mbuna keeper, I probably would have thought I died and went to heaven in that place. Thank you Corey. 😊

[@flippyj3608]

🤣

[@crazy12lol]

Man they should have lazy boy chairs! I could spend days there! 😂 Just saw the chairs!

[@niva8043]

I think we all can appreciate to watch a well kept facility whether you are into cichlids or not :)

[@DonnaArnold1981]

This place has to be the best looking and cleanest breeding/wholesale/ fish store I’ve ever seen. It is beyond amazing and looks so relaxing too. Whoever owns that place gets a 10/10 for all their hard work. I’d be in my element looking at all those beautiful fish.

[@andginisin]

That place is like a cathedral. The holy land for African cichlids

[@terrirodriguez8929]

Look at the organization!!! It's like a library of cichlids!!!!

[@sarahwoodring5587]

I'm stunned by how clean this facility is! I wonder how many hours per week those five people work to keep it looking like this?

[@fishmanhari]

Imagine the water bill 😅

[@bencharisse4079]

I‘ve been there 3 months ago … it is a 3 hour drive… i was so stunned… the Most amazing thing i have ever seen in the Aquarium Hobby … nothing comes even close

[@lyrieth8833]

That place looks so peaceful, I would just like to sit for an hour let the world melt away. Even if you don't keep or love cichlids they are still just beautiful. I love seeing these kinds of videos.

[@DBZTCG]

Thank u for my order 🚚 SO WELL PACKED, arrived extremely quick 2 1/2 weeks to Australia 🇦🇺 awesome experience GREAT WORK Coop 👍thanks heaps

[@ErikWhyRock]

Dan's fish has been getting imported from here!!! Excellent fish!!! ❤❤❤

[@ccizot]

I am all Malawi cichlid and thanks to you I just ordered the most expansive plastic Vals in my life....I hope they worth it....great video!!!!

[@MrConjuror]

Dear god...that place is incredible. So quiet and clean..I could spend days walking around that place. Absolutely stunning

[@coolslc]

African Cichlids have been the coolest Fish I’ve kept, it’s been years though, have Salt Water now, but man… they have the best personality, easy to keep, easy to breed! 💯👏🏽

[@ryankursehuston]

I’m in awe. This place is just incredible for anyone in the hobby. I’m sure those of us who don’t keep Cichlids can all still appreciate this impeccable facility.

[@Jeffdoeswhat]

That place is massive. Would love to visit it one day.

[@tillweber1729]

I've been there, the huge store is luckily only an hour from my home....simply spectacular and I swear you've never seen anything like it in the world! They also have fish from South America etc

[@davidcaruso4859]

Where is it located ?

[@tillweber1729]

@@davidcaruso4859 90 minutes north of Frankfurt

[@aquadiaryofficial]

Wow! This is bigger than the city aquariums that we pay to visit! Looks new, must be recently built!

[@Dirt_Magirt]

i love african cichlids ,so do my dovii's ...them colorful fish make great feeders for my big boys

[@Kaityscichlids]

It's so great to see African Cichlids being shown on your channel!! What a dream 😍 I wish they shipped to Australia

[@tropicalpdx1341]

First video from your channel I’ve watched in months. Do more like this please. What a facility, absolutely amazing, they know how to do it right. Would love to see a video showing some of the rare species, not the common ones.

[@stoneysscapes7544]

You should make that video and then you can make it just as great as this one was !!! 🥇

[@jawjagrrl]

You should look at some of the other store tours from his German trip. Made me quite jealous as an American hobbyist, especially seeing US brands marketing things I was to the Euro market and not offering for sale domestically.

[@charles_king]

watch the one about goliad farms in texas. absolutely the opposite, equally amazing :)

[@nic8879]

Aaaahhh yessss Aquahaus-Gaus. Thanks Cory for uploading this video, i've been waiting for this vlog

[@audrameyer9558]

That was quite awesome to see. The level of cleanliness is nuts!

[@johnpiccioli650]

Just incredible! A dream come true for African Cichlid aficionados. I want to go there!!!

[@StrikesPerception]

This looks really good. I have kept almost all the fresh water fish and never seen something that big, clean and well-orginized. I am sure they worked very hard to make this place look good like that.

[@lizzieb6311]

Pristine and INCREDIBLE! So amazing!

[@ThomasOwl]

I don't think I'll ever keep African cichlids but I love this video!

[@MasterPhotographer]

That facility is off the charts! It’s amazing!

[@catherinesanchez1185]

While I think they’re pretty , I’m not into cichlids . However , I think anyone who keeps fish can totally appreciate a facility like this . Amazing !!! Like you , I couldn’t get Over how clean it was !! Cool tour

[@leftyo9589]

neat place. most impressive that it is run by only 5 people.

[@FlyTyer1948]

Clearly the workers must roller skate around to feed the fish & maintain all those tanks. Amazing!

[@TopShelfAnimals]

Fantastic Video. Super excited to see a tour video at the world-famous Aqua Gaus. I have been importing cichlids from them for some time now and it's always breathtaking quality. always an exciting day when an order comes in😀🇨🇦

[@justme.9711]

Hey Cory, the way they have it set up with the timers and every other thing they do would be a GREAT info vid for people to use in their home set ups or fish rooms/garages and allow people to have more tanks/fish because it's more efficient.

[@aishanirmala4835]

This is what i called Kingdom of Chiclids !! :)

[@pagewhite8177]

Stunning fish!

[@shawnsshrimpcorner3169]

Just a beautiful store. I wish there was something like that near me! Great video, thanks Cory!

[@2-trueman918]

Wow, that place is next level

[@jamesdeane8131]

Visiting this place is on my wish list (I'm from the UK) I am aiming to travel there next year. This place is unreal and is more like a dream, as a hap and peacock lover this is my safe haven. It really really frustrates me that the UK left Europe meaning shipping to the UK is very difficult or can not be done. Thank-you for sharing this video and also Thank-you to the owner for creating this dream facility.

[@mysticalfishplant]

That place is a fish heaven ❤️

[@Harta23]

Thanks for great sharing 💕💕 look amazing VIDIO Full watched here'always

[@RenegadeLK]

I'm not into African Cichlids but this facility looks amazing!

[@aquapuncture]

Immaculate facility! OMGosh! 😱 Zenzo must be sooooo jealous! 😍 He didn't get to see this in person, right?

[@crittergirl3647]

Love facility tours, no matter the fish type. Keep them up!

[@codesempireunleashed7899]

That's unreal! Thanks for sharing this! I fell in love with mbuna roughly 25 years ago and to see something like this is a dream come true! Amazing! 😍👍👍👍👍

[@danielrachbuch2301]

remarkable. More african tours! this was epic!

[@jenskarlsson4744]

African cichlids are funniest fish too keep !!!And the coulor amazing !

[@oakharts]

That doorbell got me out of my chair real quick as I wait for some fish supplies to come in.... DOH

[@cosmicshy637]

Such a clean, tidy, fish-packed place! Very nice. 💜 🐟

[@Cichlids23]

What an amazing place, thanks so much for sharing Cory!!! The Deep Waters I love and the Flavescent's have always been a fave of mine...

[@charlesfranklin3533]

This Store is Very Impressive I Didn't See Not One Bad Aquarium. Their All are Top Notch Aquarium's. All of their Fish Look Very Healthy And Colorful. I Would Love To Visit This Shop. Please Include Where You Are Located???? Kudo's To The Owner's Of This Shop.

[@tmargosian]

That place is gorgeous! Can’t believe how clean everything is!!!! Awesome!

[@tommybunk2292]

Awesome !!! Thank you for sharing Cory 👍

[@Redpulsar2011]

All is soo clean !!🤩

[@platty9237]

A room like that would be awesome for a movie set. Imagine someone being chased and getting lost in there. As the villain searches around, the moving fish make it hard to spot their victim, adding to the suspense. You could also CGI some sort of massive crash and splash scenario.

[@evan_rifkind]

Wow now I need to go to Germany! I LOVE seeing African cichlid content on the CoOp. And this is AMAZING African cichlid content.

[@Dylamos]

I've never been into african cichlids other than the shelldweller species. But I can't ever deny why people might like them. Great video

[@dlioncoulthurst778]

So Cool and Amazing bro....Hailing from Barbados....Hoorah!!

[@Gobrian44]

Truly incredible. Thank you for sharing!

[@marcdalton8488]

Please show more of this footage no matter how long it is

[@nataliravn]

You are so good at finding absolute gems. Great job!

[@kenithburnett8074]

This place is so awesome thanks for showing us this

[@billyd.8753]

been keeping African Cichlids since the mid 70's. I have never ever seen anything like that here in the States. a real shame that we have nothing even close to that. All the good stuff is all going through Europe first. We can't even get some species here. I'm into Tanganyikians about the past 25 yrs or more and some of the rarer Petrochromis are very difficult to get now here yet I see the European folks posting all the time on FB all the good stuff.

[@tnaqua5630]

Absolutely beautiful facility

[@jimmyreese4740]

Awesome video what an amazing store the fact this store is so clean is amazing!

[@articunian1816]

Cichlid Nirvana! amazing place, nice video

[@rajishmaharaj7552]

I'm mesmerized by the entire facilty. Fish look great and there tanks are spotless. Very beautiful. I'm in awe at what was shown.

[@SaadAli-tu9wp]

This is the heaven cichlid fans!

[@scottmckay3948]

I would love a 5 hour tour video, dang that's on my bucket list for sure.

[@thominaduncanson7596]

Makes me want a tank of African cichlids. Alas, no where for such a large tank. Thank you for the tour-it was awesome!

[@RussMcCord]

SPECTACULAR! Thank you for sharing.

[@traceyreynolds312]

Very colorful cute little guys

[@bensantos3882]

Love this channel and the hobbyist dedication!

[@paulbryan1094]

Awesome Cory. Those Featherfins were incredible. Would have loved to see some Tropheus.

[@fourknotsnowhere]

that was cool seeing cobue in a tank. ive been breeding them for about 2 years now. one of my favorites

[@juanlopez-xr9wd]

Most beautiful Store ive seen, i would die of joy her🥹😭

[@mayukhbera]

Mind blowing facility!

Amazingly awesome place. ❤️

[@lewisspeed3041]

[@Elsuper68]

Where is this great exhibition of beautiful fish.

[@shadabAquaticlife]

The best Aquarium factory I have ever seen in my life, what quality African chiclids, amazing store , wow just wow, such highly maintained store simply awesome, love 💕💕💕.

[@joshhibbs_nola]

It is like IKEA for African Cichlids! 🙌🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

[@TheRocketpony22]

I'm not a cichlid fan but this really is amazing and is making me consider keeping some of the smaller ones in the future.

[@ekoed]

That is amazing. Good to see some cichlids on the best aquarium channel!

[@PagoCitiesSkylines2]

I may not be an African cichlid keeper, I am more of a tetra fanatic. However, this vid makes me want African cichlids.

[@raygv1]

The level of organization is amazing even every tank has its own net meticulously placed on top of each tank I likes it.

[@patrickforget5088]

I love African cichlids they're the rainbow of the fish of all fish they're the most colorful

[@darrylmoore5847]

Holy cow that place is incredible.

[@gigi3242]

Zenzo has to be drooling. Thanks for the video, the place is amazing.

[@Ghostuga]

amazing! tks for sharing this diamond with us! it's fish keeper heaven for sure

[@vampgaia]

OMG! I don't keep African cichlids, but I would happily spend a day just looking. Wow!

[@scrubjay93]

Such an amazing place! They should be very proud of it.💙

[@fishkeeperuk4198]

That’s the most insane shop I have ever seen, there is nothing big here in the U.K…… just tiny shops! Great video!

[@stoneysscapes7544]

Quality & Quantity is not the easiest way , but when every aquarium is pearling and the fish are all smiling & living the dream ....you just know they are another level and I am going to make my fishroom to resemble a few of the many great Innovative ideas and the cleanliness of a great facility and like you said " not 1 dead fish "

[@Jman-un8vg]

Yes, some African Cichlids! I've got a 150 gallon Hap tank with Hornwort. I love their big beautiful colors, as well as my smaller planted tanks. 🤩

[@cayleweldon5021]

Awesome mate !!!

[@ambrishnayak7826]

Bro I have never seen such an amazing store. Heaven for cichlid lovers. Love from India.

[@DennisEhv]

It really looks amazing 🥰
