U could always spend money to visit or donate, then maybe he can upgrade the camera. U know in between taking care of all these fish and whatever time he has left over for his personal life

[@debbiehorn8263]

Wow This young man knows A LOT about all these wonderful fish . Very impressive .

[@P2Zip]

Excellent tour. Josh was very knowledgeable about all of his fish. All the fish look very healthy and that speaks volumes about Josh.

[@usamaaliansari_]

Hey Katie, I must say, this video was absolutely captivating! Every moment of it was delightful, and I've been a devoted follower of Josh's channel for the past month or two. Surprisingly, I had no idea they had such a spacious place with a beautiful koi pond and everything. Thank you so much for giving us this fantastic tour.

[@Kaityscichlids]

That's so fantastic! I'm so glad that you enjoyed it so much and were able to see a bit more of the place 😄 Thank you heaps and I appreciate the support 😊🙏

[@usamaaliansari_]

No, Thank you. I'm thoroughly enjoying all the videos from your trip to the US, and I hope you're having a fantastic time as well.

[@matthewcaldwell1384]

I’m very impressed, I love seeing passionate people sharing their passion! Stay curious and know how appreciated you are.P.S. I’m a guy with long hair ,I recently cut 6 inches and personally I’m glad I did.👍

[@nicksavage4763]

RICH/Josh Should do a Coffee table book with lots of photos of such Unique Setup

[@Kaityscichlids]

That would be super cool! I would definitely be buying a copy

[@jacobmorales4448]

I was hoping you knew that we can tell that you are a very hard worker. And the aquarium hobby isn’t going to be the same without you keep going there’s people like you that are irreplaceable you always produce great content and traveling all over the world with collaborations with almost everyone in the hobby. Hope you never stop making videos

[@PureAndShrimple]

That big tank is phenomenal 😮❤

[@cyndifalk]

Really enjoyed this tour with Josh! It was watching OFR that kept me from getting baby monster fish early in my hobby - before that I'd know idea how big some of these guys really got!

[@Kaityscichlids]

I'm so glad to hear you enjoyed it!! And yes they've had great success on KZbin, it's really awesome to see 😊

[@mrcarl5481]

Such an amazing tour! Glad I’ve found time to sit down and watch it in one go 😊 I love how the cichlids just sneak everywhere and breed, and so many huge fish. Loved you went on the zip line too! Will definitely marry you at Ohio Fish Rescue if I had the chance 😂😂😂

[@Kaityscichlids]

Thank you!! I'm so glad you were able to find time to watch it 😄 And yes I absolutely loved that zipline lol. I'll go on it when I get married 😂😂😂

I'm an American with Australian family and it's awesome to see you experience the hobby in America + experience red neck engineering first hand!

I love how you have these huge, inconvenient guys up out of vats or ponds for traditional viewing. I also noticed your faces and lateral lines aren’t all ganked and pitted. This is really beautiful work. Thanks for sharing.

[@Kaityscichlids]

I'm glad you enjoyed it!! 😄

[@asiansuperman]

I admire your dedication! It’s a ton of hard work in keeping all these monster fishes not to mention all the plants thriving in their aquariums/ponds.

[@SchoolGoalsWork]

WOW!!! You and your dad ROCK!!! Thank you for being such great people!!

[@MakoyUnggoy]

This was the video I've been waiting for - Just remember, you can't get a bigger tank just yet, however tempting it is now you've seen all these others haha!

[@Kaityscichlids]

Hahaha, this definitely inspired me (or tempted me) back into wanting bigger tanks!! 🤣 Now I feel like my 6ft tanks are tiny. One day...

Most definitely!! 🤣 I would rather a fish pool than a chlorine pool. Thank you for the support 😊🙏

[@Yelsin_Salazar]

Ohh, I saw really gorgeous tanks in there, what a collection. They are truly inspiring, I mean rescuing animals and giving them a second chance is just noble. I bet your channel will grow fastly, Continue like this my Aussie friend, and best wishes to you and your channel☺☺!!!

[@Kaityscichlids]

It really is! I love what they do there, they are truly fantastic people. Thank you so much Yelsin and thank you for the support 😊🙌

[@Gamerkat10]

Considering how they constantly get in new abandoned fish who have to be in all stages of bad health, the sheer good health of all these fish is amazing. They must be VERY rigorous with that quarantine procedure and water quality.... frankly incredible.

[@edizdeniz9664]

Canavarlar büyüleyici! Mekanlar çok etkileyici!

[@Kaityscichlids]

They most definitely are! Such cool fish 🐟

[@AcousticKitty]

I absolutely LOVE how Josh talks about his fish. Passionate AF and so knowledgeable. Any updates on that Pleco and guiness world records???

[@connieparker8896]

My coi pond was loved by the hawks and other birds of prey, I would see them flying thru the air with my beautiful fish,, so I turned it into a Lilly pond and the bull frogs would use it, they were loud at night!!

[@TravisInCanada1]

that’s a great demonstration of feeding using the “normal “ sized jar /can of fish food as your portion size in your tank i used the same cans to use as feeding tubes through customHoods i built for my 1000 gallon Acrylic tanks i picked those because they had the plastic lids i could remove and the foil Covering on the Cardboard tubes to stand up to the high Humidity ! Of course being in the Hobby for over 40 years i had plenty of empty Canisters of Tetra brand Fish Food
