Great video again Mike. Sad to see some of your beautiful fish go which is unfortunate. Happy to know that your keeping some of your gorgeous fish. Keep us updated in the moves and future builds.
It’s nice to see good people just helping each other out, Rod will take great care of them and if you want them back one day I’m sure you can make it happen!
build bigger and they will come...this channel will hit 100k once u start it up again and do your new build....your DIY knowlegde, choice in fish, decor, Ideas and good looks are perfect recipe for a big channel...c
I know this was hell for ya to do bro. But we all know there going to a great place. And with all the great relationships you have in this hobby. You know when your ready. Everyone will be sure to get you back on your feet and be able to build your fish in no time.
Wow Great job Mike I know it sucked to get rid of the Gar and the White Red tail,but it's ok you couldn't find a better fuy than Rod to take your fish. Keep pushing foward I cant imagine what you have planned for the next Tank now that you have built these and figured out all the in's and out's of the build great video.
just found your channel u have some awesome fish mate sorry to hear about the thining out for the move I have been there before but with quarter the amount of fish still hurts looking forward for the restocking of the new set-up at the new house when the time comes and atleast u will be hooked up by predatory fins when that time also comes
Bro times like these are absolutely heartbreaking. I've had to go thru this already but at least you didn't get thrown out of your house and have to get rid of everything lol. But for me the Red Tails were the hardest to let go bc I love them so much and I can't wait to get more again. But next time like you I want to go way bigger with their tank, like 12-18'×8-12' but a swimming pool pond would be amazing too but I think I'd have to build a house around it but if I'm ever able to beat believe I'll build a house around the main aquarium lol
Great video Mike I feel for you I could see it in your body language giving up fish that you raised is hard ,but I know your next build will be the best 👌
5:25 shouldn't your tank water pretty much be fresh water the way you keep your tanks? I still use the water from my breeding tanks to ship fish in lol. And I only change water a couple times a year at most. It's a genuine question bc idk bc I don't keep tanks the way most people do, plus idk how long the drive is plus with much larger fish it makes more sense but still.
The good thing is one day in the future you get to start building and stocking tanks all over again now that’s exciting. I bet when they left you shed a tear Bless your heart.All the best mate 👍☹️
I know how you feel. I have a iridescent shark going to a new home soon, I’m torn but have no space &cannot afford a monster tank that he needs. I’d have Rod adopt any fish of mine.
You're the man thanks for wanting to support! I'll be doing a launch this fall! For now I gave Rod and Matt my last few shirts of the last batch no lie 😂 Rod wearing a 2x for reference he'll be one of my clothing models
I'm a novice when it comes to these fish. That said I love watching your guys videos. I'm just curious was Big Rich and OFR a contender for any of these fish as well? Not trying to cause any drama. I love Predatory Fish channel just as much. They all seem like super great guys.
Josh made me an offer as well yes but Josh was further away so longer drive for the fish and they talked it over with rod and decided rod would take everything when he got the rays
Surely predatory fins could just hold onto the fish you don’t really want to get rid of such as the PRTC and the platinum gar? Especially since you held those rays for nearly a year. Seems like the least Rod and Kevin could do for you
you can't raise that many large fish without giving a thousand percent love and right now you don't have the time to do that nor do you have the tanks to hold the fish it looks like the best you will be able to do is keep the majority of the Breeders in the medium size and have him try to auction off the rare breeders to Dedicated breeding aquariums and as far as the rays are concerned they are such a specialized fish you can't auction those off they have to be pretty much given to the best Aquarius that you have for stingrays the fish you are getting rid of are the cream of the cream and I have no doubt the new owners will be humbled for a breeder it's no big deal getting rid of a thousand large fry and heartbreaking to get rid of any of your monsters but at least you're rehoming them to places where they will thrive and to people who would probably never have this chance if you didn't give it to them as hard as it is to separate yourself from these fish but by getting rid of these monsters what you do today will spur on aquarium owners to make all of their dreams come true
@ Least you know they're going to a GOOD HOME, but I am so sorry you had to say bye to those babies especially when growing them from fry any way keep your chin up.
@@OffTheDeepEndAquatics sounds good, pretty shtty to leave your subscribers hanging for almost a yr anyway. No updates no nothing.. selfish asf.. Peace out

I want to know how you got those large panels what size are they. I need a 3m x 1.5m panels for my build. Any help?
I know this must be hard they like your children you will get back when u settled down and it will get better

Where have you been?

Would love to have one of those tanks. Dang
Fuck yea bro you got a new subscriber right here!
I know how you feel. I have a iridescent shark going to a new home soon, I’m torn but have no space &cannot afford a monster tank that he needs. I’d have Rod adopt any fish of mine.
Where can we buy shirts to help support the channel and your move brother

@@OffTheDeepEndAquatics awesome look forward to it. If you made some white ones with black vinyl as well this time I wouldn't be opposed lol.

Sad to see the fish go for you, bro. Hopefully it won't take you long to get up and running again at your new setup
damn the sadness in your eyes. may things go well so it can all multiply for ya
👍👍
Pool ponds wouldn't work for the time being?
I actually bought two that was the plan but if u watch the previous video I explain why I changed my mind
@@OffTheDeepEndAquatics i will. This is literally the first time seeing your channel or you tube recommending your videos. Either way nice fish bro
Thanks Tony!
Are you coming back?
Some day bro but the last few yrs have been rough. I'm planning on epic stuff in the future 😎
I missed watching your video
Came here from predatory fin's video
Nyc
Would be cool if u combined 2 600 tanks together some how
Surely predatory fins could just hold onto the fish you don’t really want to get rid of such as the PRTC and the platinum gar? Especially since you held those rays for nearly a year. Seems like the least Rod and Kevin could do for you
You have been gone too long Mike. Get back on TH-cam brother. We all miss you!!!!!

Should’ve sold your most expensive fish like the plat gar and rtc
Those probably would have been a hard sell since they are already at such a large size so not many people can house them
Rod purchased the PRTC and Plat gator. Everything else was free. I think we mentioned this quickly in the video
Natty or Not?
@@OffTheDeepEndAquatics hope you got a good lump of change for them not to often you see fish like those
