I support your cause-not skipping any ads ever. You all stay safe.

[@joaomendes1330]

Just discovered this channel, and it's a joy seeing all these magnificent and huge fish being taken car in such an incredible and dedicated way. Please keep up the awesome work guys!

[@ohio-fish-rescue]

Thank you! We try our best

[@YaoiScene]

Meanwhile, your puffer is still the cutest, goofiest fish in the whole place.

[@mchrome3366]

The sign of a well done video is not keeping track of the time especially when it’s about a subject I don’t usually watch videos of. Very informative and no nonsense. Thanks.

[@vspec17]

Dude, you repaired the swim blatter on a fish, that's gangster business.

[@frankhite9849]

awsome show!!!!! very informative!

[@OhhWeOhh]

Funny story, when I was 12ish after watching Jaws 1, 2 & 3 I was dared to jump in the lake (northwest Ontario) & was attacked by a 4' Northern Pike lol

[@ThePersia450]

Had my toes nibbled on by some pike before haha. Only freshwater fish I've had try and attack me and open water was a muskie. Pretty shady haha

[@gtaquatics9366]

That Aba Aba knife is really cool

[@nicolenicolerson5200]

Well you answered the question I wanted to ask of have you ever been bitten. Glad you didn't lose your foot! lol Awesome video

[@deborahcheney432]

Thank you Josh for education everyone on these predatory fish that need to stay in the wild. God bless you and your family for all you do for these fish!!

[@vicaroo001]

I love these kinds of videos! I also love that your tell us stuff based on YOUR experience... not common fish lore!

[@Jerry-lj3cf]

Josh what a great video you absolutely kicked this one out of the park. You my friend are getting better and better on every video you're doing. Keep up the great work 👍. Love you guy's like family, how is your mom doing today ❤, continuing to pray for her and all of you guy's.

[@ohio-fish-rescue]

All we can do is strive to be better 💪. Mom is doing much better at the new place. Update every Friday on the live stream

[@TheKris2384]

The way the black Diamond rays all bunched up together near you was adorable! They seemed really happy to see you! (Or hungry)

[@laurensvonk3937]

This video is AWESOME. You should do a top 5 oldest fish or most expensive at the rescue.

[@ohio-fish-rescue]

I like that

[@Shaden0040]

Alligator Gars, can live in both fresh water up the Mississippi and live in salt water in the gulf of Mexico and can travel as far north as Cape Cod. Fish that can transition between salt and fresh water and back again are known as euryhaline fish.

[@soobie5243]

Pittsburgh!!! He's looking great!

[@wise9022]

Good stuff josh. Love the knowledge/information and the hilarious stories. Keep it up

[@heatherfranklin47]

Awesome video Josh. This was really informational. I remember when the paroon shark ate the leperanus 🙂

[@trekabe9745]

I like how you did it from 1 to 5....luv the fishes!!

[@cpufrost]

I had a redtail swallow an alligator gar. The catfish was about 32" and the gar was 15". Never thought it was possible! Redtails will literally put anything in their mouth. And they're quite vocal when pulled out of the water sometimes sounding like a sea lion barking! Large iridescents do too.

[@janecharette9990]

I been looking all morning for this to drop i missed it for breakfast but its good for lunch

[@juliestevenson9151]

Very educational

[@jaysav3893]

Great talk, thank you, top water puppies please? Jayne

[@lolavanenburg1647]

You’re so informative Josh..love all your excellent Videos..greetings from Liverpool uk🇬🇧

[@dax8753]

those silver fish with pink fins are stunning

[@jackanddan]

The Ava Ava is Jack’s favorite....he really is gorgeous Josh! It would be amazing to see one 4 feet long holy smokes....great update dude!

[@mellewedin8221]

Bro any fish that has a tail like them sharks are built for nothing but speed. They are mad powerful fish and can hit hard enough to kill most fish on impact.

[@savagei6130]

I agree with you on the Crystal Eyed Catfish. I had one and had to put him in his own tank.

[@ShaneWisecup]

Well done Mr. Josh. Like your top five and the stories to go with it. You guys keep up the great work. God Bless!

[@davewest3137]

Great video guys big love to tracy hope shes doing well stay safe as always 😁😁😁

[@mattunes5823]

I remember you siliconed that black devil catfish. It made so much sense that I wouldn't have thought of it. Lol.

[@ohio-fish-rescue]

Improvise. Overcome, Adapt, and stay fishy

[@NinjaTofu0]

That was super interesting, thanks! I had to pause the video and read the wiki for each fish XD

[@savagei6130]

The most aggressive fish I've owned were Dovii, Crystal Eyed Catfish, Wolfish, Red Snakehead and the Golden Dorado.

[@ayee6174]

Having aggressive fish that need huge tanks all to themselves must take a toll on the rescue. Can't have too many of those.

[@georgiamoonproductions979]

Just now watching this...Love the Vid all together Josh...Keep me informed on what not to get..🤔🤔🤣🤣🤘🤘♥️🐟💯

[@maximuslucifer4556]

my personal Top 5 : Parachromis Dovii Cichlid , serrasalmus Elongatus (piranha) , Hydrolycus scomberoides ( vampire tetra fish) , Hoplias Malabricus ( wolf fish) and Hydrocinus Goliath ( Goliath Tiger Fish)

[@MCrvngraddip2013]

I love Pittsburgh and Betty ❤

[@williamamely7038]

These Gars have been known to battle Alligators. I have heard of them growing to nine feet, rather than twelve, but I am sure some do get that big. They are still fascinating fish, but should never be kept by beginners or in Aquarium smaller than 125 gallons. I love watching all the fish you have rescued. Thanks for sharing. My thoughts and prayers are with Tracy🙏🙄❤️

[@benjaminmorley1007]

What about the giant snakehead? Do you consider them to be aggressive compared to the other fish you keep?

[@chrischiappetta1815]

Hey Josh! What about Big Bill!? I’ve personally been to Antonio’s and seen Bill and his fish first hand! Some of his Oscars I brought him as well. He has some of the biggest Oscars I’ve seen in person. Id love to see an update on Big Bill! Great video! Keep up the great work!

[@ohio-fish-rescue]

HES A HUGE FISH BUT THIS WAS ABOUT THE AGGRESSIVE FISH, BIG BILL IS A BIG BABY :) HE DONT BOTHER NO ONE :)

[@chrischiappetta1815]

I’d love to see a quick underwater video of Bill in the pond in one of your videos soon! I remember petting Bill in Antonio’s pond years back and he would come straight to the surface to be pet, such an awesome, personable fish!Antonio and Bill are the reason I got into monster fish. Of all the fish y’all have he’s definitely my personal favorite! In the next few months I plan to bring y’all 2 of monster cats that are outgrowing they’re winter housing, during the summer they live in my 4,000gal koi pond here in NC. By this fall they’ll be pushing 44”+ each. Ive had one about 3 years with a small gap in between. But it’s gonna be time for a larger home for them very soon. One is a TSN x Achara Catfish that is 39”, and the other is a 42” Ripsaw. The Hybrid I raised from 1” to 13”, rehomed him when I moved out of state, ended up getting him back and having him shipped down 6 months later due to him eating my ex’s alligator gar. He was 22” at that time, a year later he has exploded in growth and when I measured him in November he was 39” long. The Ripsaw someone actually dumped in my pond without me knowing, I’m not sure how long he was in there before I noticed him, as he rarely is seen. I found him under a ledge cleaning the pond this past summer. Amazing such a large fish can go unseen for who knows how long. But regardless, I think Ohio Fish Rescue will be the perfect forever home for these fish if you all would like them. We have a beautiful Platinum Butterfly that is over 15 years old! I haven’t measured her but she’s easily 27” long not including her giant long tail! Her and a male normal colored common carp with butterfly koi fins have bred in my pond 2 or 3 times this past year! They were local rescues as well from a local drainage ditch on the side of my road after the hurricane last year. I’d love to donate them to the rescue as well if Tracy would like to add them to her wonderful collection!

[@joshuagilbuela4919]

Hi everyone I'm new here. 🥰😆 I was stunned and amazed of how Ohio Fish Rescue handle different kinds of fishes 😱🤯

[@dennisfeldmann7399]

I did like video countdown was interesting. Stay Safe. Stay Fishey.

[@savagei6130]

I haven't looked at the video yet, but I'm gonna guess the Dovii and Red Devil will be in the mix.

[@LacoteCohen]

The guppy should have been on the list🤣, great video as always

[@kellenkirkpatrick]

I love this video, just like your other videos, there all awesome! I hope to get into the hobby soon. Its also my sisters birthday today! The way the Aba Aba Knife fish swims is just so beautiful and awesome

[@ohio-fish-rescue]

Happy birthday

The Piraiba- Catfish is one of the biggest Freshwater-Species of Fish and able to swallow a Human if they reached their Maximum-Lenght of 3 meters or more...

[@sergiomeza5937]

Love the video

[@savagei6130]

I've only had experience with a 18" Alligator Gar and I found it to be very passive.

[@debbieoakes8845]

Ii also watch River Monster. They can be so dangerous. So like I always say. Play safe have fun.

Super cool I love monster fish don't have the space yet

Number 4 his fine remind me of a Spanish dancer who has a flowing gown looks when they spin. So beautiful !!

[@wu718tang]

Great video. That aba aba knife needs a bigger tank though!

[@stevenmotchan2048]

I thought Betty Gangster would be on the list. She makes one phone call and you'll be swimming with the fishies.

[@spandexmicrophone]

🤣🤣🤣

[@terri1150]

loved the video, absolutely gorgeous fish😍. I dont own fish anymore but i used to have alot, amongst which were 4 catfishes that a store sold me and they claimed they were wild caught and they didnt know what they were, they then went on to say they could not really house them anymore so i got them fairly cheap, one turned out a bit smaller than the other 3 eventually and had to be held separate, they were insane eaters and fun watching em gobble food pellets, but they were quite fun, theyd follow my every move if i was walking near the tank as well as my fingers if they were moving along the glass, but something i loved most about em was that if i put my hand in the tank theyd come up to it and go belly up for a “bellyrub”. They grew super fast but i had a nice tank setup for em so that was ok, they were amaZing fish though, I loved all my fish but those were possibly my favorites, along with a black molly female i had that grew to almost double size that was nuts too, I really miss the hobby so so much.

[@terri1150]

oh yeah one time dad caught a pike while fishing and he thought hed play a joke on me by testing when i would spot it being in there with my cats, needless to say i wasnt all that pleased with the fish just being dumped in there from him catching it from a river, but most sad thing was that the pike was a tiny bit smaller than the cats and fell victim to them before i got up and saw the shenanigans, so by the time i was feeding my tanks the pike was reduced to a head, i immediately took that out ofcourse and put the tank in quarantine but it was alright.

[@jeffbeatty6325]

Great Video Josh! 👍

[@S_0_R_R_Y]

Can’t wait till they get huge I remember all those videos

[@cannon420cannon8]

“Fun story, I got brutally attacked by an alligator gar”😂

[@gtaquatics9366]

When he said “funny story” I thought he was going to say the fish was attacking the glass or something, not “I got brutally attacked by an alligator gar.

[@ParthaAquatics]

Wow josh... quiet an interesting video... these guys are really harmful at times yet so sweet 🐠 💙 enjoyed watching the video! Let's stay fishy 😎

What is the silver catfish at 15:38 I have one and no idea what it is and I need to know

[@thisislargemouth5566]

I'm not sure what it is but if he keeps it on that tank you better watch out lol I imagine it's going to get pretty big.

[@thanrose]

I think you are asking about a piraiba catfish, Josh shows it as a runner up meanie at about 19:10 .

[@amazingaquaticsandexotics3030]

u mean the 4 line pictus catfish

[@maxhusa6872]

@@amazingaquaticsandexotics3030 Dude thank you! You are exactly right. You have solved my 5 year mystery

[@TRaiiN420]

Are gar and pikes related ?

[@duneydan7993]

Yes and no. They are both fishes, that's all. Let me explain. The groupe of fishes that gars are members of separated from the groupe of fishes that contains pikes (and most other fish species) +/- 300 millions years ago. To give you an evolution time scale, Mammals separated from reptiles also +/- 300 millions years ago. Gars and pikes are both fishes but they are as related to each other as you are related to a lizard. Hope that answer your question!

[@Denmoro10]

Fun fact that alligator gar called pike in russian

[@toddwilson3919]

ya... about the big eyez. my 10in vampire tetra(payara) bit one of the eyes of one of my oscars. But thanks for telling me now.

[@JasonBowen]

I enjoyed that, do more educational videos :)

[@hownowbrowntrouttasmania7389]

GREAT TANK:)

[@bestofsmall]

very interesting Josh! good video but now I have a question..are All Knife fish blind and as dangerous as #4? I may be wrong but isn't there another knife fish in a different aquarium too? I hope you do more videos like this just telling about more fish and interesting things about them! Stay safe sending prayers for Tracey.

[@WondrousMindTrick]

I think you're confusing aggression with predatory behavior. Aggression is out of dominance or just a pure instinct to kill. Predation is a strong desire to eat.

[@azzaxjs]

i once had a red claw crab who was a total git! and a demonic dwarf rainbow fish who just tired to muller everything in the tank even the rest of its shoal!

[@greensun1334]

What about the Goonch-Catfish?

[@Shashankmk]

Aggressive fish and killer fish and big eaters are two different segments. Mostly cichlids are the most aggressive, mean and active all the times.

[@lightninlarry8936]

Nice

[@Evo1122]

Snakehead Toman also very aggressive

[@Trending_topics_worldwide]

What about Golden Dorado or Goliath Tigerfish and Giant Snakeheads?

[@StanTheObserver-lo8rx]

If you put tight netting over the pool...Dont Gars jump also? I spent some time covering the 240 openings today.Added Giant Danio's. Oh,they will jump no matter how much room they have. So,have jumping fish on my mind.

[@ohio-fish-rescue]

they have never jumped for us, only when they were in smaller tanks, they dont jump in the canals of florida so ....... ?????

[@StanTheObserver-lo8rx]

@@ohio-fish-rescue Oh,they do. Just that like all other leaping fish..they have miles of water around them-lol. Put those little hatchet fish in an open aquarium and they will all end up on the ground sooner and not much later. But,they have lived millenia in the wild. If you ever did need to cover? Maybe those portable chain link fences around the pool?..6' tall would stop most fish. Paint them green or something. You could leave enough room to walk inside all around the pool..and room for fish to flop back into the pool. Just an idea. I hate when I lose fish to accidents. Like stuck behind a rock...desease is one thing..you know?
