    I purposely excluded the white sturgeon and other sturgeon species in this video because even though they can live in freshwater their entire lives, they are anadromous or live in brackish waters.
    I said this very clearly at the start of the video so please stop commenting it.
    Peace and love

      was about to say the same thing about sturgeon, they live in both fresh and brackish waters. However I don't know about the sturgeon species that live in Europe/asia. i know that those species of sturgeon grow to absiolute behemoth sizes. I dont know if they li ve in brackish water though, Thanks for all of the information!

    Murray cod have also been almost completely wiped out due to water mismanagement here in Australia. Cotton farmers have been illegally irrigating their farms using water from the already dry murray darling river, which has led to algal blooms which have inturn led to massive fish kills in recent years.

      There are no recorded cases of them ever eating a human whole, we know they can scavenge a corpse if it comes near them, but we have no proof of them killing and eating a human (which would be very unlikely, a child as you said is feasible though I'm not aware of any case of a catfish found dead with a whole child inside, but adults are just too large for them to actually eat, especially as the truly massive ones are exceedingly rare nowadays and even for the upper limits of the species, a below average adult woman is already probably too large for them to swallow.
      It's not *impossible* that they ever killed (this is actually not too far-fetched considering their size and opportunistic behavior) and eaten (that's the very unlikely part) human at some point, but it is an extremely unlikely event

    Great video! But you forgot about the „donau Hausen“. A sturgeon, living in the Donau. They usually breed in saltwater, but a small population in a donau-sidearm breeds in freshwater. So they are a true freshwater fish, way bigger than a wels(-catfish) by a few 100kg and fish-/meat- eating. These huge sturgeons dont exist anymore but there are a few reports from the 19th and 20th century with fish about 1000kg and 6m. Thats the biggest freshwater fish in the world

    I think the Beluga sturgeon should’ve had an honorable mention. It primarily lives in the Volga River and the Caspian Sea, which is a lake. The salinity of the Caspian is also pretty low in the north. (It also lives in the Black Sea, and the salinity there is also pretty low) The largest specimen was caught in the Volga delta back in 1827. It was 7.2 m (23 ft 7 in) long and weighed 1,571 kg (3,463 lb).

He described it as "a long, ugly fish, the memory of which disturbed my nighttime repose for many years afterward".

      It's a shame that bull sharks were excluded as the Brisbane river is one of the few places where it's been proven that bull sharks are breeding in fresh water with zero contact with brackish/tidal waters. Upstream of Mt.Crosby dam but the 2011/2012 and 2022 floods all gave them an opportunity to return to the ocean and for new sharks to enter from downstream breaking the chain. The sharks are still there though.

    After being hammered in the early days, Murray Cod are slowly recovering thanks to genuine efforts to improve habitat and massive restocking programs. Still a long way to go. Unfortunately they rely on seasonal spring flood events to trigger spawning in their natural range and these have largely been controlled by building weirs and large scale irrigation in a dry continent. Still, I’m optimistic that we will again see the monsters that were once slaughtered 100 years ago…and we will leave them alone. They are a special fish.

    Rip to the Chinese paddlefish, apparently weighing up to 450kg (although it was also anadromous)
    There’s of course also the beluga sturgeon, while also technically anadromous, apparently reaching around 1570kg or almost 3500lbs

    A few miles from here the Nile meets the ocean there are some areas along the bank that are over 800 feet deep. That area has to have more living fossil fish than anywhere else in the world.

    As I started the video I thought "wels catfish" for europe but I didn't imagine that it would be the third on the the list as well as the following ones would be so close to it's size 😮 ps. Giant freshwaterstingray granted to Jeremy ❤(bleeding muscles)

    So the largest freshwater fish native to north America isn't the alligator gar. The alligator gar is the largest freshwater fish native to the southern US. The largest freshwater fish in North America is the lake sturgeon which is primarily found in the great lakes capable of growing to lengths of 12 feet or more and weighing well over 300lbs. The largest specimen caught was over 15 feet in length and weighed 409 lbs.

      Cant sturgeon live in the ocean?this video is purely fresh water not species that can live in both

    • @Lastchanxe_exe
      @Lastchanxe_exe 18 วันที่ผ่านมา

      @augustuslunasol10thapostle some sturgeon yes, however I'm referring to LAKE sturgeon. Which do live in freshwater primarily. That was the condition, they have to be primarily found in freshwater.

    @CryolophosaurusGuy 22 วันที่ผ่านมา

    For North America, i believe that the White Sturgeon is biggest than the Alligator Gar
    The largest ever recorded alligator gar was 8 ft 5+1⁄4 in (2.572 m) long, weighed 327 lb (148 kg)
    The largest white sturgeon ever caught was 11 feet 7 inches long and weighed 1,100 pounds

      Tsuki mentioned anadromous fish like sturgeon wouldn't be counted at the beginning of the video.

  • @Polytrout
    @Polytrout 25 วันที่ผ่านมา

    I think that there are several sturgeon species that might exceed 200 kgs. In fact I was led to believe that they were the largest freshwater fish. Various sturgeon species can be found in Adia, Europe and North America.
    Please advise as to whether I'm erring on this matter or not.

    I always find ranking species by their largest recorded member to be a funny choice. Like if you were doing it with mamals then you'd have to count the fattest human or tallest human when making the list.

      Even though they can survive in freshwater their entire lives, they are anadromous so don't qualify for this video
