My 12 year old son and I have recently started keeping fresh water fish and the information in this documentary really helps us understand what the natural habitat of some of these fishes are really like. Hopefully we can recreate them successfully in our aquariums. Thank you very much for creating and posting this documentary.
It feels like a very special privilege to have this intimate look at the natural home of these beautiful creatures, that we so often take for granted. It's hard to pick a favourite scene but it would likely be the footage of parent fish with their broods.
i think i had seen this video for so many times during this 7 years and im watching it again in 2020, anyone else also the same?
@Sin Synn cool awesome there, relax and watch your fav youtube , yt will recommend 8 to 7 yrs vids and also hope yt recommend my aquarium videos as well, and cheers new friend
@Sin Synn cheers
One of the very best documentary's for any planted aquarium enthusiast. I really enjoyed every minute of this. Thank you.
Your documentaries rock. I wish I was rich enough to send you money for this. I'm not. But you deserve to be supported if there is any economic want in your life. You are creating an education tool of the highest quality in your work, much higher quality than most any others I've seen in any language. You inspire biophilia, which is among the most necessary things to do in these very precarious times.
this is one of the nicest video's i have ever seen .
as an aquarist the subject is near and dear to my heart .
The emotions is indescribable when I watch this video every time

Not to be too much the pessimist, but the footage you have recorded may well represent THE LAST remaining intact, pristine freshwater ecosystem examples on the planet. That being noted, you and your production staff are truly pioneers in the freshwater aquatic world. Thanks for all you have contributed.
Jake Scot this is indeed true and truly sad. I never see any big conservation “companies” say anything about it. Only the Aquarium Industry talks about it, and even that is minimal. I really hope we can atleast save some of them because our aquariums aren’t the most stable too.
One of the best documentary on aquarium fish in their natural habitat. I would have seen this video over 20 times over and over again but never got tired of it.
Simply WOW... This gave me way more appreciation for my 55 gal planted fresh water fish aquarium. Definitely more awe inspired to consistently provide the best that I can.
just speechless... amazing documentary!!! obvious from this video how much passion and time you have put into this.
The best underwater freshwater video I've seen, thanks very much appreciated. Hope to see more from this crew, great job!
well documented and put together! enjoyed watching!
Thank you for bringing us such a footage, very educational indeed.
Very cool, i am a planted tank guy but nothing beats natures designs
I go both ways haha
Doug C same I came for inspiration

Scammer.....

Красивейшие подводные съемки пресноводных биотопов! Respect, Ivan Mikolji.
You are a brave man to jump into those waters!
Interesting how no habitat has the look of these prestine clear, algae free aquascaping tanks, and still they are astonishingly beautiful!..

nice doc! its nice to see all these freshwater fish in their natural habitat, glad some one actually did it with only 5% of our waters to do it!!!
It's beautiful to see the fish swimming in their natural habitat. The sounds of nature, of tribal singing and well-paced, easy-going voice over made it both super informative and serene to listen to. Great camera work - vantage points and captivating perspectives: both day and night, throughout the behaviour shifting seasons... thank you!
This is awesome, a fantastic insight to not only the fish but also the plants and water flow of their natural environment.....brilliant.
so beautiful. great job Ivan.

Simply awesome.
Almost looks like all those rivers etc. are aqua scaped lol, beautiful
This is a great video! I'm so happy to see the natural habitat of so many of the species I've studied and admired all my life. Thank you for incorporating the important factors of the environment that contribute to the ecosystem of these fishes, such as seasonal changes, rain, and surrounding soil and plants.
I have this on my favorites. The length of this video makes it a visual trip. For variety I play it on mute putting my own music in background. Swimming with the snake is amazing. .The love of the intricacies of creation shines forth in the production and the posting .
Excellent video and documentary. Thank You!
Great work!!! Thank you!
A delight to all the senses, you have captured thru your hard work and passion. Thank you.
This is a wonderful niche documentary for young people who live in a transitory bio environment, without having to take an expensive trip into the big world, by just staying home and exploring their immediate eco systems. A perfect adventure ! Thankyou for taking the time and doing a great and essential piece of work. I wish I were rich enough to $ your work. Perhaps I will soon.
Awesome video, thanks for the great insights to freshwater habitats :)
A most beautiful video. Thank you.
Just a fantastic video, going straight to my favourites. Please do more.

Wonderful!!!! Thank you so much!!
I've been a hobbyist for 20 years, I love seeing these fish in the wild. This is going to help me with my planting and species selection going forward. I much prefer freshwater over the sea.
great documentary, everyone in the aquarium hobby should watch this and strive to imitate/replicate the conditions in witch the livestock they keep originates from.
Amazing video thank you for sharing!
