  • In this video, I get a new 300 gallon tank for my pet alligator gar, Brazos and the crawfish, Charlie. After I set it up, they enjoy several shad in their new tank. Thank you guys for watching!!

      @@neo-filthyfrank1347 I assume so. All it would take is a tripod to hold the camera while he does his thing, but as he might not have one, he has to hold the camera instead. I could be wrong and he just doesn't like using tripods, didn't have the proper space to set it up, or is just camera shy and didn't want to show the process. Who's to say? Fun to wonder nonetheless.
