My Tank Sprung a Leak: Huge Fish Evacuated!!!

[@Craig.catfish]

Josh is such a skilled catcher the average person has no idea how strong some of these fish are.and he does it with ease❤

[@terrietime]

1st🎉 Good Morning From Texas Stay Fishy 🇨🇱

[@jasonmayer9879]

I would love to see you build a plywood tank!!!

[@SebastianSimonDE]

Big Richhhhh, spill the beans on the new tank build! 😂

[@shanna1534]

He wanted to talk about it so bad lol

[@ohio-fish-rescue]

Lmao, there is always reasons. This one will blow your mind

[@blakehaselberger3308]

the dogbone is my favorite tank and im so sad to see it without fish! I would have loved to see it as a live pond one day!

[@samscalz]

An emergent paludarium would be awesome

[@resetgang6638]

@@samscalz now that's a good idea.

[@wheelman024]

Glad you were able to catch the leak before it became a complete disaster. Good luck repairing/replacing the tank. Thanks for the work you guys do.

[@Raven_Claw-g9b]

Love seeing OFR use the sock net. Every pro fishkeeper should invest in one. Or 10. Nice nettin’, Josh!!

[@debbieoakes8845]

Good morning Josh and Bigrich. Good save there. There's a couple of big boys there. Enjoy the rest of your day. Play safe have fun. 😊😊😊

[@chrissiee]

I always enjoy watching your videos. Its obvious the welfare of the fish is important to you.

[@joshpriceofr]

It's a must when you have pets

[@sarahbutler8730]

Great to really see these fish. The dog bone petting tank doesn’t do them justice, only seeing them from above.

[@keldaMouse]

really think you have a great opportunity to put a bigger tall tank there. Love how the tanks are looking. The rescue and seeing the fish up close was a great video. Blessings!

[@msjadeli]

Josh, I have complete confidence in your fish wrangling abilities. You got quite a soaking there. Glad you saw the leak.

[@juliuscaesar3346]

Excellent eyesight spotting the fault in the tank ,it’s great seeing Jerry pop in and out of the video, looking forward to seeing if you get the new tank ,❤️💚👍🇬🇧

[@MrAjonut]

When you said the datnoid is an 18 incher and put him in the tank. I couldn't help but remember and marvel about Anubis. I have never fully understood or appreciated his size. He must have been a real specimen. Kudos to you guys and the original owners for giving him a good life. Oscars are what got me in the hobby in 1994....😊

[@samscalz]

I thought I mentioned that it looked like it was starting to separate! Sorry to see that tank go! ❤

[@razinfishes1918]

Never a dull moment at the OFR my gosh it takes so much dedication to juggle all the things you guys have to deal with. I love you guys keep up the awesome work you do.

[@soumiksamanta1376]

Ooo... The goonch is really a beast. Wish to see him in his full glory one day. Last Friday a goonch was caught from a local river. It weighed 53 kg and sold in the local fish market for approximately 860USD, that's close to 75kINR..

[@resetgang6638]

Sheesh that's 116 pounds! The goonch is definitely one of my favorites

[@jimmyvagell]

I have been watching you guys since 2019.❤ the videos stay fishy my friends.

[@MakoyUnggoy]

The problem with the dogbone tank is how low it is, it's more like a pond...The datanoid looked 100% more impressive once he was 'upgraded'

[@Demon-mi3rv]

The problem with the dogbone tank is that you can't see/appreciate the fish. I've always wanted a better look at that Adonis pleco! If you're going to rebuild/reseal it and make a new stand, it needs to be a much taller stand, 3 or 4 feet tall, which would give you lots more storage space underneath and perfect viewing height. I don't like it in that spot either. I'd rather see your new idea go in that spot.

[@Mistress_Wolf]

Goonch was like "F*** off Dad, this my dog bone tank. If I die, it is my choice." Hahaha

[@92083Barb]

what a great video!!Thank Big Rich and Josh I was laughing so much at the water fun.Sorry the tank broke

[@fritskroon9285]

Wow that is some more work coming up fore you Big Rich and Josh, hope you can find fast a good solution, i have compleet fate you will, nice video keep it up

[@Goose00123]

Those fish look way bigger now they are in new tanks. 😮🎉❤

[@panaque]

Man, I am surprised that tank lasted that long

[@SebastianSimonDE]

Well done catching all the plecos, Josh!

[@mattordiway8631]

I have kept fish for over 20 years. And not until this last 2 years, I never had a tank leak. Now I have had 2 different 50 gal tanks leak or break on me. Never fun. Good thing you caught it before it completely emptied. Guess it's time to retire the dog bone tank. Too bad. Was a unique tank. Great video.

[@heleninglis9961]

Holy 💩 that Goonch could move!😂 great job Josh, as always x

[@jerryjohnson4525]

No extra charge for the shower and entertainment 😂

[@Chuck59ish]

Just a normal day at OFR....NOT! Good job spotting the leak and Hubert will have a blast in his own tank. SFMF!

[@oceanofjelly]

The Jau catfish talk reminds me of Vic's massive one that rules his more aggressive 4,500 gallon tank. A recent feeding video he did demonstrates the power of their mouths. You can feel the smack of it's mouth through the youtube video!

[@shanna1534]

I woke up to a flooded bedroom floor today. Not from a tank but from my window busting a leak during the big storm we had here. Just got done cleaning that up. A few months ago, my 30-gallon sprung a leak... it always sucks when that happens. Luckily, I was able to save the fish and plants and managed not to wake anyone up, lol

[@parkersplace6372]

Josh...pull up ya drawers!😂

[@ohio-fish-rescue]

Youd think my camera man would give me a heads up lol

[@samscalz]

Lol. They don't make belts his size.

[@Birdman_Backus]

lol I don't think Josh knows how to wear pants correctly 😂😂😂

[@saltnessmonster]

I will miss the Dog Bowl, reminds me of a public aquarium and lets visitors interact with the fish and Hebert. But it’s in a state right now.

[@charlesschneider1891]

Hope you are able to repair the tank soon .

[@MFoster392]

What a pro fish wrangler Josh is , being serious though, I'm glad you caught it before the fish were hurt or killed :)

[@joshpriceofr]

That goonch took way to long lol

[@xix94]

Will you get rid of the broken tank ?

[@catzilla90]

Great video

[@samscalz]

Adonis is saying hi to old friends!

[@Gil334]

Great job! That Goonch was so fast, I didn't think you'd catch him. It'll be nice to see more of that Datnoid now. How come you didn't move the bottom dwellers to the monster pond?

[@shanna1534]

Not big enough yet

[@ohio-fish-rescue]

You would never see them :)

[@samscalz]

Those Jau are real monsters! About 7 feet max! 225 pounds

[@Signis30]

“Hey Jerry” Jerry- “😛😛😛😛😛😛” 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@angelpossesed2592]

Scary but cool catch......

[@orfeyo130]

Great update on the goonch, thanks 👍 how's the paroon sharks?

[@joshpriceofr]

Fantastic! They were in the last underwater video last week

[@Birdman_Backus]

Does Josh know how to wear his pants correctly 😂😂😂 great vid thx

[@josephkrug8579]

Good job, the only thing I would have done differently (to avoid a full 650 gallons on the floor) was to lower the water in huberts tank half way. But you know far better than me on what works in your fishroom. :) Thanks for always sharing the good and bad parts of being fishkeepers. I do not remember from the build video, but is there a floor drain in that room to catch and drain some of the water when it gets to the floor?

[@jerryjohnson4525]

I pop in and out because It's my job 😂😂 I don't video well and my voice is a monotone.

[@wheresthefish8910]

Gotta catch em all son 🔥🔥😂

[@D.TruthRaven]

imagine dashing to save the fishes life when yur drawers fall off and we all giggle till tomorrow...lol

[@fcasillas3963]

Been a while hope all is well hope Tracy is good big rich how are those Fred Flintstone toes. Any missing

[@Randykoch-t6f]

Jeremy Wade would use that goonch for bait on River monsters.

[@samscalz]

BigRich, I'll come out and help if I'm available!

[@samscalz]

Just wait until Goonch is a dangerous beast!

[@chefcamsey1375]

😊❤

[@zootallures6470]

I am happy the Datnoid is out of that tank. He needed deeper water which he has now.

[@resetgang6638]

The dogbone works for Hubert but it's too hard to see the fish with all those angles.

[@EarthEuphorias]

What are those beautiful angelic white goldfish calld you have in one tank?

[@jerryjohnson4525]

I think you are asking about the koi in the 500g cube tank

[@surpurr12]

Flex seal!

[@rathansherigar4527]

nice video. saw the detnod after a long time. he had the most beautiful eyes..even Reaper ignored him so long..

[@ianolbison1363]

Is the albino Gooch still around

[@joshpriceofr]

Of course

[@ianolbison1363]

@joshpriceofr can they be housed together or are they aggressive

[@joshpriceofr]

@@ianolbison1363 if they are close in some yes

[@GarC170]

Goonch looks like he’s seen a battle or two in his life

[@Kernowcatches]

When a tank fails it’s a amazing excuse to go bigger and better, 2 1000g like 3 ft tall on a rack would be amazing

[@thisspaceforrent5737]

Well, it's something different to make a video about, but probably not what BigRich had in mind. Glad it was caught in time. What about a series of videos called OFR Spotlight or something, that's like a deep dive each time about a different species. You could cover all kinds, from nano to monster. Where do they come from? What's their natural habitat like? What do they eat? What eats them? Any interesting characteristics? Considerations/warnings for keeping them? Fish they play well with / fish they'll attack / fish they'll be attacked by? Could be interesting.

[@matthewcagley3955]

Do you know about how old that datnoid is?

[@megamills150]

👍🐟👊💯

[@MeltingCashew92384]

You aren’t worried that the Bone aquarium fails completely and all that water ends up on the floor?? 😮

[@Unit_225]

🤟🤟

[@NekoKotorii]

I thought THE Goonch was the name of the individual fish rather than his species.

[@MrAjonut]

If you guys say its a strong ass fish, It is some serious strength. And here I am saying my 12 " oscars are monsters......😃. Hilarious.......

[@jennifermartin506]

Catfish nipped the pleco.

[@jasonstaples4364]

Beast

[@WolverineGaming-wk8oh]

Are those tiny white fish inside the tank u put the datnoid in Josh🤔

[@puirYorick]

With OFR already maxing out its available floorspace, the weird shallow dogbone footprint has become an inefficient use of that area. It served its purpose for long enough. Maybe offer the pieces to someone as a rehab project if they will come to take it away. I'm happy all the fishy residents are safely housed in other tanks now. It probably wouldn't take much to rehab the dogbone material into a shallow vivarium for someone with amphibious pets and enough open floor area. Dogbone theme - corporate pet food brands looking for a centrepiece attraction in their building lobby?? Any takers?

[@freshwaterfishes2794]

Wheres the live stream lol

[@jerryjohnson4525]

A lot of comments about concern for the pets first. Always the primary goal. If they are in my care and pass it's usually something that I did or didn't do. In the wild they live until something kills them (no fixed life expectancy)captivity is no different.

[@bennyg4101]

Dudes got weird toes

[@gunnermuzzammil]

just drain the damn thing put hubert in the pool behind teslas tank why take the risk of flooding the fish room

[@wallyandjilly375]

Stay fishy my friends ❤

[@thebazgaz]

Hope that catfish leaves the pleco alone. Personally im not keen on the dogbones, lot of floorspace per volume of water - you could get 1 huge or 2 slim but deep tanks in there. Incidentally is that 2 wooden framed tanks that have gone in a few week's ? Have you checked thats definitely only a coincidence?

[@ohio-fish-rescue]

Considering this stand was original and the tank is over 25yrs old. I've owned it for over 15yrs myself. I've gotten my money's worth. Everything has an expiration

[@Demon-mi3rv]

Idea...with a taller stand, could the dogbone tank be used as the PERFECT tank for the electric eel? I'd like to see him have more room, maybe a sand bottom and some big pipes to swim thru. Only thing I wonder about is if the tank isn't DEEP enough for him, looks shallow?

[@samscalz]

No cover. The Eel absolutely requires a snug cover!

[@Demon-mi3rv]

Yep, they'd need to make a cover for it.@@samscalz

You know I like the job being out like where you put them now we get to see him in that dog bone now we got to see was a dark silhouette at the top well you got to realize those goons they live in Swift running water so yeah they got to be powerful cuz if not they're going to get swept down by the current

[@cathyhendrix7552]

Well Josh....I got to see your CRACK again. At 7:01, 7:06, and at 9:30 something, I think. You either need smaller jeans or you're wife needs to learn how to make country cookin'. That's basically everything fried in bacon grease. Oh and gravy made with bacon grease and your veggies either fried in bacon grease or seasoned with it, too. AND you have to smother EVERYTHING with the gravy. Oh and don't forget the homemade biscuits. Ya got to have them to. Plus ya got to season the beans with bacon grease and put it in the iron skillet so your cornbread don't stick and make sure you fry your taters in bacon grease to. Now that's the food that'll put some meat on your bones. LMAO

[@OSUBucknado]

You can use lard if someone used up all the grease from the coffee can on top of the stove

[@cathyhendrix7552]

@OSUBucknado YEP. Ya sure can. 🤔 But usually that's what's used fur the biscuits. Ya shouldn't really run out of bacon grease so long as you're eatin' bacon ever morning 😋 fur breakfast. Ya got a full day's worth there. 😉 So....... ya need ta eat more 🥓 bacon Fer yer lunch to if'n ya run out ever'day.
