Woaw !! What the nature is beautifull !! Thanks you very much for your picture. This is ideal for understanding the conditions in which the fish live!! ideal for trying to recreate this in an aquarium.👍👍
Those jungle perch would look stunning in a big group in an aquarium, the water is also a lot warmer than I expected it to be considering what time of year it was filmed!
It was cold enough. But i have seen the same jungle perch in Madagascar, in 30C. I think they can adapt really well. They are really nice looking fish.
far from it. now if i could get these things to get colour in my aquariums I would be happy. Especially gobies of the genus _Lentipes_ are an enigma that does not want to play nice here.
It's amazing to see Jungle Perch in Japan! We have the same species in FNQ Australia. I'd love to see the higher regions of this area as well. Especially a mix of the above water and below water environments.
@@belowwater I'd love to see that. It's amazing to me that they are essentially the same species separated by insane distances. I believe there are also populations over near Madagascar as well.
@@svenw-u3f Just a pipefish. It was winter, but given how venemous local snakes are it would be not wise to get that close, the island is famous for the endemic Habu vipers (Protobothrops spp.), sadly in winter they are hard to find.
Cant get enough of your videos. LOVE IT.. LOVE IT.. LOVE IT.. Thank You so much. Feels so good to be able to see aquarium fish in their natural habitat. I have a thing for fish. Bring back memories coz i used to have a fish store, sadly i had to give it up due to the pandemic.
Thank you for remarkable footage of fish I have cherished in my tanks. Observing their wild behavior helps me understand the structure of the environment I must create for them.
I liked very much Kuhlia Marginata, somehow reminds me of some species of Tetra, my favorite fish. Too bad it needs salt water to spawn... The black goby was adorable, not my favorite species but it has its functionality in an aquarium.
Awesome, gobies are always a treat. Cool to see the Jungle Perch also, there is a fish hatchery here in Queensland Australia working on captive spawning their cousin Khulia Rupestris. Exiting stuff for Aquaculture I hope they are successful.
As always, great footage and commentary! It's amazing to see so many different species living together on such a small surface. Thank you for all the work you put in your content and sharing with us.
I really loved this video! Its fascinating seeing the uniqueness of such a relatively isolated habitat, I would love to see more! If I can make a suggestion, I would love to see a bit of focus on the parts of the environment where younger fish grow out.
at this time of the year, in the subtropics (Amami Oshima is quite far north) there are no small fish, and i would guess that the juveniles of all these fish are in the estuaries, so you would not see them even in summer (I assume). If i see some fish with young of course i will try to get it on film!
We have watched you on our TV for a couple years (under a different username mainly because we couldn't figure out how to get our channel on the tv haha) and just wanted to say we think your channel is fantastic buddy! (can't comment on a tv so subbed here aswell)
Thank you for this nice documentation! Are any of these fish sold for the use in aquariums in Japan? We all know about Medaka, but there must be much more species fit for keeping in our tanks ? - Danke Oliver für den tollen Bericht :-)
Since the power shortage and issues with Fukushima the hobby there has taken a hit, so you don't really see a lot of native species in the hobby there either. LIke most countries there are some legal issues with collecting native wildlife. Check out the video with all the native fish from the Aquatoto Aquarium i made, there are certainly a lot of cool native fish in Japan.
Thank you for your professional and interesting video. It's always very happy to see these fish in the natural habitat. I have many questions about fish. How can I send you a private message？thank you
I know this is a Goby video but I'm really digging the fish ( Perch?) that swims into view at the 5: 39 mark - 5:46. Would love to see these gobies in breeding colors. 👍👍 Thanks for sharing. 👍th-cam.com/users/sgaming/emoji/7ff574f2/emoji_u1f44d.png
I would definitely love to see a part 2. This was very interesting and I enjoyed it very much. Thank you for your time and effort on the video.
i did not have much time upstream, but it is really interesting to see how the habitat changes, it will come soon.
The biodiversity in these small streams is really amazing.
Woaw !! What the nature is beautifull !! Thanks you very much for your picture. This is ideal for understanding the conditions in which the fish live!! ideal for trying to recreate this in an aquarium.👍👍
Ahh we need these in the trade so bad
Very interesting
The content you provide is like no other! Truly appreciate coming across you. Please keep it flowing!
Thank you. Let's hope we continue to grow with more subscribers !
Awesome! Loved it! That Pipefish looked more like a snake!
yes, really not what i expected, both the amount of current they liked, and the fast movement
@@belowwater yes indeed, not the wild habitat i would think they would do good in!
AMAZING stuff!!! Thanks for sharing!!!
great thank...

@@belowwater one day you'll figure it out 👍

I'd love to see the higher regions of this area as well. Especially a mix of the above water and below water environments.
i have some from above, it looks so much like the mountains above Cairns, it is quite amazing. Too bad it was just too cold for the snakes.
@@belowwater I'd love to see that. It's amazing to me that they are essentially the same species separated by insane distances. I believe there are also populations over near Madagascar as well.
@@belowwater at 1:52 at the left big black rock i thought it was a snake ? or is it a pipefish cool vid

The narration makes this so much better. What a lively ecosystem! Thanks for sharing.
thank you!
Fantastic video. love it.
Amazing 😍
Thank you very much for showing a habitat of Rhinogobius. That's, what I wished for my active time as Rhinogobius-Breeder :-)
Thank you - I have a lot of footage from another habitat specifically of _Rhinogobius_ - coming soon (da kommt bald was)!
Thank you for remarkable footage of fish I have cherished in my tanks. Observing their wild behavior helps me understand the structure of the environment I must create for them.
thank you.
This is right up my street. Thank you so much, I dig this one.
nice! Next goal is to see it in summer.
Would love to see part 2!
Beautiful footage and information, Thanks for sharing 🙂

yes, i got some footage of another species in the ocean, will post that eventually
Yess finally a new video. Its always a party when you upload a video🎉😊
Thank you. Yes, limited time makes weekly videos a bit difficult.
I really enjoy your videos.
Thank you, word is (slowly) getting out!
Wonderful insights! Thank you so much for sharing
Thank you.
Great Vid Oliver :) you are a true Inspiration sir for all Ichthyologists.

And definitely do another vid higher up. it's interesting there's a few species there we also get over here.
wunderful video - thanks a lot 🙂
thank you!
We absolutely love visiting Japan. Beautiful people, beautiful islands, so much geography. But for a fish hobbyist this is over the top. Thank you

Thank you so much for this, fascinating habitat and species! More please! :)
Do a gulper video pls getting one tomorrow
This is sooooo good for aquarists. Love it! Big up!
thank you.
You have so good films and info on fish i am habby and loocking a lot, i need little info on Hyphessobrycon Amapaensis
I can't help you there, not been to Amapa.
I so very much love your wonderful videos! Thank you so much for making and sharing them. Wishing you all the best!
Thank you so much!
Great video loves this type of content. Be good to see the same place in the summer
yes, I think the gobies will be spectacular when the water is warmer.

Can u do a natural habitat of (Sundadanio rubellus
"Neon Red Rasbora")?
afraid not, never been there. I assume it is in coffee coloured water that is full of swamp plants.
@@belowwater no it is not ! Ever heard of the fish?!

yes, that is the jungle perch (Kuhlia marginata), actually really interesting little fish.
One of the true fish lovers on youtube, keep up the great work Oliver 👍 how about some habitats of Channa :)
sorry Lord, i do not have any. Ask Dad to send some funding to film that!
@@belowwater how about some bitterlings then :)
@@longschlong5341 there are several in the Japanese fish video. Next year i will have some bitterlings in nature
