Can tiger barbs go with gold fish

Oh man, so many cool moments! Makes me want to go back and do it again. I still have that fever for those golden plecos and that storm on the river, was simply an epic moment.

What sort of permits and stuff did you need to bring fish back into the US?

This is an experience that i have on my bucket list! You must find loads of fish that are not in the hobby!

1:45 the cool looking flower is a sensitive plant we call it 'close marie' or 'marie marie close yuh eye'

I used to catch regular plecos in Panama. Also caught hatched fish, festivm cichlids, swordtails, other tetras I was stationed there in Panama during my Army time.

I love this footage..How cool it had to be just being in the fishes natural habitat!!❤️❤️❤️🐟🌿🌱

My Bristlenose plecos have that gold flake look on their scales as well. Very pretty Bristlenose plecos. Mine just had a bunch of babies.

6:48 THAT FISH COSTS ME 200$ EACH IN MY COUNTRY FOR THAT SIZE, AND YOU EAT THEM LIKE CHICKEN NUGGETS?!?!?! 😭😭😭

That what I’m saying

what an amazing experience this must have been man. I am recently getting back into planted aquariums and fish keeping. Found you and have been buying a lot of supplies to try and support you. You've been so helpful on my journey back into this. So much more information is now available and I am grateful for people like you who help people like me. Keep up the great work and content man!

I am currently 16 and live in South Africa, I have 3 aquariums and love to breed endler's, I want a pond to breed them year round but my parents won't let me get a pond. How can I convince them to let me have a pond?

They are also breeder and surely have license for collecting. Which will help the hobby with the new genes that will enter the market. Everythings came from the wild its just that this is for the health of the fish in the hobby Inbreeding cause a lot of modern problem on our fish in the trade

Thanks, Cory. Love the trips footage!

So i can hear what they say but what is the gold pleco they catch with the earth eatter?

Looks like an amazing experience

You should do a video on African Butterfly fish

thanks for sharing cant wait for your next trip

This is really cool! I know some people don't like wild caught fish, but the way I see it, you are going to give those little plecos pampered lives where as many would have died in the wild

Sweet video cory thanks for sharing!!!

Hey Cory enjoyed watching this. I'm sure those whiptails you brought back ate Loricaria simillima or Marble whiptail incase you hadn't found out yet, can't wait for the next one and keep up the good work

Awesome!

looks like fun.

I can feel the humidity already

I watched every single one of these videos at least 20 times it's so freaking entertaining 😂😂

Amazing work on the editing Awesome video Tanks for sharing this adventure with us

I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS!!!

I lover huge predetory/monster fish, that catfish (pretty sure it is a tigreshovelnose) was awsome. I also love that Oscar, the colors on it seemed amazing and a bit different. Those pleco's where also insane looking

Here in Trinidad we call that "flower" a "sleeping Mary"...

Shovel nose ceviche is amazing!

Pleco soup?! Wow what does it taste like?! I just added a bristlenose to my aquarium also 😂

How much would it be to do somthing like this

Hi i put tow different kinds of api Conditioners in my new glass tank its only a 10 gallon tank but for 3 glow fish! Or 4 but anyways no i have not got the fish yet!

Hi Aquarium Co-Op! I'm SO nervous today to do my first-ever medical treatment for all of my beautiful fishes! Including an elephant nose, which they say they are rather delicate with medications! SO nervous! Planning on using the Aquarium Co-Op method...and will be spending the day setting up for the week-long quarantine in my planted 55 , gathering all my fish together for the event, 8 adult and countless fry guppies, 3 discus, 4 Ottos, 2 clown Plecos, and 5 corries...I hope nobody dies! I'll put in an airstone, all my fish and medicate all... because one of my 3 discus is not growing at all. after 2 months he's still the size of a half-dollar, while the other two grew to 3 inches. Hope he is able to grow after this and there are no casualties. leaving ceramic rings in the filter - any last words of support welcomed before I add the meds later today. So scared!

Where can I go and book a trip

So I wouldn't be able to eat much in Peru 😂 The discus was a new one for me , never seen that .

"Touch Me not" Plants and his reaction!!!

Sensitive mimosa! I'm pretty sure that's the name of the little plant that closes its leaves. I grew one as part of those "weird plants" kits as a nipper. Couldn't make a square tomato but grew the beejesus out of that mimosa 😂

Yes!! I finally made top ten on one of your videos!!!

Seeing those fried Discus was a trip... and $160 a pop at my lfs 😳

I really wanna know what those catfish were. The ones with the round fins.

Mantap

Cant believe the prices of wild discus here and them getting fried up for lunch over there 😱

The fish at 7:50 does anyone know what it is? It looks so cool swimming.

The plant is the sensitive plant (Mimosa pudica) you can get them as house plants in the US, I currently have one I'm growing from seed.
