Titans in training - caring for the giant sea bass in the Monterey Bay Habitats exhibit

[@fossilfighters101]

i love that charlie likes the feeling of sand

[@rizzbusiness]

these videos sometimes bring me to tears. i used to work with sea lions and i miss it every day. i never felt more aligned with my purpose than when i was taking care of them.

[@ddtex4954]

I am sorry. Why don't you still?

[@vedakota5869]

It's always so heartwarming to see how much care and thought go into taking care of each and every animal at the aquarium! Giant sea basses are such sweet creatures and it's awesome to see you guys treat them with as much love as they deserve :D

[@bonnylouwho76]

Oh my word. I had no idea that you could "train" a Giant Sea Bass like this! And you started with Theo when he was just a baby. How fascinating! I will tell my son about this. They have enough income to be able to travel to see things like this. I wish I could go with them this is marvelous!

[@TheErik249]

I love these sea bass. They're the stars of the Monteray bay aquarium north pacific species exhibit. Big, ominous, and natural stoic beauty. In the wild... They rule with an iron fin and REALLY big mouth.

[@jackson4274]

I like how they all have different patterns and habits

[@rogertemple7193]

That is an awesome giant Sea Bass and I have never seen one that big before until now thank you.💞🐠💞

[@archdukegordy2189]

Fish are so biologically different from us and we rarely get to observe them up close/interact with them, so it's always a treat to see what their behaviors and personalities are. It took me a long time to realize fish can be super intelligent! They look so primitive, so it can be hard to recognize their body language unless you work with them every day like the folks at the Aquarium do. Thank you for sharing a small glimpse into their life!

Gorgeous protecting all animals

[@cambuxton6835]

Sea bass and groupers are surprisingly nice to humans if given a chance to make friends.

[@markmarsh27]

Feeding scallops to baby manta rays at The Monterey Bay Aquarium was one of the most amazing experiences of my life! Everyone should have this place on their 'Bucket List.'

Very caring team.

Great video! Very sweet and interesting, I love them big fish. Cute!

I had no idea these fish start out so tiny, it's adorable!

Wow great stuff MBA!

Amazing, I didn’t know I needed this

[@samaelnorris7421]

i feel better about the world knowing you can train giant sea bass and I dont know why

[@Just_a_Goth]

'Cause it's cute to train a big ol' feesh.

[@plankface]

I immediately wanted to know their names 🤷🏻‍♀️ “Blue, Charlie, Delta and Theo” 😊

[@bretfisher7286]

Many fish have very primitive expressions to our eye, and some seem rather monstrous-- and some *are* monstrous!-- being aggressive carnivores. In any case, they're quite fascinating and even the strange ones are beautiful in their own way.

@juicesipper9896 Seriously, I'm sorry you found it necessary to expose your ill temper to all the world as you just did. And all over a.. fish. Try to find better solutions for your meaninglessness, all right? Try sweeping the porch of an old woman in your neighborhood. That always works.

I love how three are named after the velociraptors from Jurassic World. Blue, Delta, and Charlie.

[@irmawesterback2930]

Thank you for your video. Your seabasses are giant. It is nice that fish can also been cranky😅.Years ago I had a fish thank and one of the angel fish was always cranky👿

[@moltenmermaid1517]

C Bass? I'd give it an A+. =P

[@Neptuno22no]

so cool!! reminds me of the giant groupers we have in aussie waters, and in the great barrier reef here :))

[@rlvids9889]

I love that you include the staff’s pronouns, I’m glad to be able to know how they identify and it makes me feel seen myself. I also love fish cognition!

[@thedopplereffect00]

Are you blind? If you can't tell who they are by their name and appearance you need help

[@sforza209]

They didn’t include the fishes pronouns! WHAT HAPPENED TO THE RIGHTS OF THE FISH! Cancel Monterey Bay Aquarium noooooooow!

They are not gentle giants, they will eat anything that will fit in their mouths. They are beautiful creatures in which i'm drawn to watching.

[@annsmith5625]

So neat

[@moonpleco5083]

Basses, those from seas and freshwater, are awesome! Intelligent fish, they deserve to know them more. They are friendly, shouldn't be catch on hook 😥

Are these related to Goliath Groupers?

Why the hell do you feel the need to include pronouns next to everyone’s name? Everyone watching knows what these people are even if they don’t.

Stopped watching the video then disliked it and unsubscribed from the channel the moment I saw “she/her” pronouns listed beside the “biologist”.

Lol, imagine being so insecure you’re offended by pronouns. Snowflake.
