OH MY GOD MAYUR SIR! you finally covered the most important topic about aquariums! The fish which is abused the most! The iridescent shark! I have sseen plenty of shops selling these sharks of 2-3 inches to amateurs who are just into the hobby and keeping a shark already fascinates them(tho it's a catfish) and then this shark they bring grows so big that they return it to the shop and the shop just literally dump them into sewers of any nearby well , mh heart literally aches for these beautiful active catfish, inspite of their true potential and beauty they are always always lookeed down on! A right sized aquarium might be an ideal home for them , but I doubt that wont be enough too! I guess the shops should've banned from keeping these species because they are real tank Busters but if one really has a big enough tank only then he should be allowed to house them! But hope so things get better for monster fish in india! And yes! THANKS FOR MAKING VIDEO FOR THESE BEAUTIFUL SPECIES
The shopkeeper gave this to my mother & she took it not knowing how big they get. When she got them home I put them in 4ft tank. I researched and found so sorry for them seeing their future. When I went to the shop & complaint why you gave it he said "kaunsa wo aaj hi badi ho jaegi" I was so mad
@@duskyprincess2282 I said to the shopkeeper that "they will grow too big and I don't have a bigger aquarium to support them" So he replied that "they are not going to grow that big overnight. They will take a year or 2 in order to create issue for your 4ft aquarium. Let see if they are alive for 1 year or not" He meant that they will die before they reach bigger size. That's why I was so angry on him & have decided to never visit his shop again
@@30Ravi oh god how cruel.. mine is 4yrs now I also got it when it's just the size of my index finger it grown too fast and thank god I was aware that I shouldn't leave it to the pond so I managed to keep it with myself and kept them on my cement tank which is about 7feet now they're super cool both of them grew almost 3 feet but as far as I know they didn't have any offsprings I think both are male..
Iridescent Sharks or Sutchi Catfishes (Pangasius Hypothalmus) usually don't feeds on other smaller fishes and are peacefull in nature. The predatory ones are called Paroon Sharks,they are seperate species and can be easily distinguished by their long and pointed dorsal fins. India has also native Pangasius and they are commonly found in Rivers of India and Bangladesh.Don't blame it, they are native variety which you commonly see in India's River systems. The native variety of India & Bangladesh is Pangasius Pangasius, it's tail becomes red as it grows up. It can grow upto 3 feet(Iridecent Sharks or Sutchi Catfishes on the other hand grows upto 4 feet and there is no red in tails).
Hi sir… very informative video. Thank you. I have 7 years old iridescent shark 8 inch in 2 feet tank. He is very calm and healthy. What size tank is actually required. Also 4 goldfish and few Neons are tank mates. There is no issues between them.
Secondly..as described correctly..by yourself....these iridescent sharks once got scared for any reason they move so speedily and with enormous power and aggression inside the tank you feel like they may jump and come outside the tank or break the tank itself. If you witness by chance there aggression even any body will get scared .Hence keeping any other fish inside with them is incorrect.They have in aggressive movement, unknowingly unintentionally or accidently striked and killed my two big size kois kept with them in same tank previously which I could witness coincidently. This is the another problem with this species.Even I had to change the side filter twice after their striking on side filter.
I used to have 2 albino after 6 months I put them into the big pond in masjid called haudh they are growing very good and big now happily there are already 4/5 black very big catfish there which is almost 2 feet in size
Sir...I have seen many of your videos...which are based on your very in depth knowledge in this particular field .Also your syphathetic approach towards these species .Generally this should not be considered as simple topic.In fact we are doing injustice to such species and keeping them in a small tanks like putting them in a Jail (it's ANDA CELL for iridescent sharks ) .I have my self changed my tank size for just 2 sharks over period of 9 years .Present size is 6 feet x 20 x20 .They have grown over 16 , 17 inches now this is again proving to be a jail for them since can't turn easily inside.Since by now they recognize people around them now there is attachment hence not releasing them in river since presuming their DOSTANA will come to end and people may catch them for eating or they can't get their food which by now they are habituated. No aquirium shop wants to take these big fishes I had tried with them.They told me to throw them in pond or river which I could not imagine to do so. I tried with few of resorts and hotels but got information that they some time use these fishes for preparing food stuff hence did not dare to leave them there also.My request to you since you are authority in this field please instigate new HOBBYIST JUST NOT TO BUY THESE FISH AT ALL .Because in future the problem will definitely going to arise, which is my personal experience , they need very big tanks which general people/ hobbyist can not afford and they don't have the place also to keep such gigantic tanks.I once again request you since your word has some respect amongst HOBBYST Please appeal them not to by these fish at all.Also may request you to stop selling /promoting this particular iridescent sharks to hobbyst since there many other small aquirium fishes for hobbyist.Its big message sorry for this, but wanted to share my personal experience and intention to stop cruelty with innocent living beings for sake of our joy. I may appeal all the general or medium class hobbyists NEVER EVER buy this iridescent sharks you will repent after 10 years .
I had also started my hobby with these fishes with other fish but they grew too much to be kept in my 2 ft tank so released them in a big water body in a garden next to my house.
cant wait to watch this video. hope you encourage people to not keep this fish in tanks as this is a pond fish being extremely active and a swift swimmer. a tank, certainly the sizes that we keep in India, don't do justice to this beautiful catfish.
@@MayurDevAquascaper dont worry sir if there is a backlash, i will personally reply to those people in the comments. you did an amazing job as always with this video
I say that Betta fish is best fish because other fish don't live longer in Aquarium and Betta fish in wild 1year in Aquarium if taken proper care 3years and I request to everyone that please don't keep Betta fish in bowl keep in atleast 5 gallon tank which is 20 liters
I only recently got into this hobby, only just finding out about this fish. Never paid attention to it, My dad bought this fish 8-9 years ago on a whim and realizing what kind of fish this is and how it has been living in our aquarium(86 gallon)for all those years, make me extremely sad. Please suggest what should I do ? As you said, this is an invasive species and I asked my local aquariums and they said they just release the fish in the local rivers. The fishes have been taken care of quite well exception being the tank size. Im very conflicted on what should I do next ?
You can give it to a zoo or any animal park in your area, also return it to your local shop keeper or a friend that has a large pond Thank you so Much 😀 for making LIFE AAYUH Fish Food INDIA"S Most LOVED Fish Food !!
I have kept this fish for 3 years and it was 2 and it grow up to 1 feet from 2 inch in 4 feet tank and than given to shopkeeper and than exchange it and taken small gold fish and angel fish . 22 days before.
I am trying tell Tru thing about this fish to people but my videos reached about some people but they don't listen 😒 I think but thanks for making this I was also saying same but no one listened
Great video sir, love the bottom line to not keep them in small tanks nor to ever release them in our eco system however would like to share my 2 cents on the subject from whatever little I know. You did mention there are many varieties of pangasius cat fish but as many new hobbyists are also watching the video, We should not get confused between iridescent shark(Pangasianodon hypophthalmus) & Paroon shark/Giant pangasius(Pangasius sanitwongsei). What we locally get in the hobby in India are iridescent sharks, which are behaviourally very different from Paroons(rare/exotic/expensive/monster fish). The video is about iridescent sharks but on many occasions the footage/behavioural traits shown & discussed are that of Paroons. The image where the high dorsal fin is shown as reason for being called a shark in the hobby(at 0:37), is the image of a Paroon. Also the footage(at 10:30) of it gulping another fish, is a Paroon not an iridescent shark. Even though they are from the same family/Genus, they are different sub-species and is like comparing dogs(Canis lupus familiaris) & wolves(canis lupus). Iridescent sharks are not even 10% as aggressive as Paroons. Having kept both species, I know the difference in behaviour & diet is colossal. Paroons are proper monster fish/hunters/meat scavengers/tank busters that are carnivores and feed on fish, shrimps and crabs in deep water while iridescent are relatively more of gentle giants who are omnivores & prefer scavenging over hunting as they have very low protein requirements. Simplest visual difference between Paroon & Iridescent is that Paroons have long & curved pointed tip dorsal fins. A follow up video(iridescent shark vs paroon shark), would be great to help hobbyists correctly identify & differentiate between the 2. Cheers & much Respect 🙏
Wonderfull explained Buddy! Even I was getting confused why the heck they are mentioning traits of paroon shark to that of iridescent shark, having cared for both of the species there is like mammoth difference between the two when it comes to aggressiveness, Paroons are born killers, Iridescent are gentle giants who love to mind their own business.
We've made a big mistake and got 2, they are around 2-3 years old now. I'm looking to rehome them with someone who has a pond and fish that are compatible with them... Any help is appreciated... I'm in Bangalore.
Conclusion........This is not at all with any angle , an aquirium fish for general hobbyst. ( big hotels resort owners with constructed PONDS gigantic tanks can afford them not a medium class hobbyist)
Sir there are 2 types of aquarium shark 1. High Fin shark It is aggressive and attacks small fishes In video when the shark is eating fish 10:36 is an high fin shark 2. Iridescent shark or tiger shark which usually everyone keeps in their aquarium they are calm ,non-aggressive and good to small fishes they are pure vegetarians You can make differences in high fin and iridescent shark.
No iridescent shark which you are saying tiger shark is vegetarian they can eat anything mera vala shark chicken aur live food aur oscar,flowerhorn pellets sab khata hai and I see that giving them non vegetarian and varied diet keeps them very healthy shiny and active mera shark is very healthy and good coloured than we can see in shops
Sir, I have an interesting tale to share. I remember, as a child I had a couple of pairs of this shark in my aquarium. I was quite fond of them and took great care of them (the best I could at that time, with my limited knowledge and pocket money). They were quite active and healthy, grew more than half a feet in just a few months. At that time, I only had a 150 liter aquarium and it was getting a bit too cramped for these fish. I couldn't afford to get a bigger aquarium so instead, I decided to release them in a natural pond nearby (keep in mind the pond is fairly big with some other small fish). A few years later, I went to check upon these sharks and was surprised to see them thriving in that habitat. They had grown in number, I could see many offsprings. And the older ones I released had grown to around 4 feet in size (which was most astonishing for me). I knew they could grow to 1 feet or a bit more as I had seen some in a few shops but never this big!
@@boyscout8035 The pond I'm speaking of is not connected to any river or lake. Whatever threat they pose is only confined to that particular area which is about an acre wide. I was a child then with fixed pocket money, so I couldn't afford to buy a bigger tank. I thought the next best thing is to release them in there, instead of making them suffer in my small tank.
@@rohitmaddali the problem : 1) the pond you are talking about is (probably) accessible to the public whether it be a privately owned property or a public one. There are people (fishermen or a kid interested in fishes) who catch fish from one pond and transport it to a different one in hopes of stocking it with the new species of fish. This way it spreads. The people are not educated enough to understand how one invasive species can destroy an entire ecosystem. 2) the pond must've had smaller indian species of fish or other creatures and plants (judging by "natural pond". Now they are under threat from this species. You could have euthanized them (it is simple, painless, easy and doesn't require an expert). Please avoid this in future. It is better to euthanize than to release them in the wild. I'd even say let them suffer but don't release them in a habitat they do not belong to. If you do, you might be bringing suffering to an entire well established ecosystem.
@@boyscout8035 I really appreciate your concern for our local eco-system, but I can assure you sir, no one goes fishing in that pond. (It's not even a hobby here as most people don't eat fish, and the few that do only eat river fish). So no, no one is taking them out of there. And about the second problem you mentioned; Yes, there were some small fish in that pond, prior to me adding those sharks. They are definitely at a significant threat with the introduction of a foreign species. But as I mentioned in my previous comment, the pond is not anywhere near a lake or river so there's no way they are getting out of there, even if there are heavy rains and floods. Whatever threat they pose is strictly confined to this area alone which is about an acre/acre and a half at most. Also, you're right, I could have euthanized them and I would if it was now, but I released them about 2 decades ago when I was an ignorant kid. It was the first and only time I had released pet fish into a natural habitat. So please don't worry, I never did that again, nor would I do so in the future.
i bought 2 iridescent sharks yesterday and didn't knew about this thank you sir for this information but what should i do with these 2 since i have 1',2' tank feeling really sad 😔 and also i just created my first tank and didn't knew much about fishes
Your disappointment is valid but I can't single handedly change what has already happened and is happening, who am I to tell people anything. No matter what people will still buy, I'm trying my best to provide the right information and help. I have mentioned in the video too that it is not to be kept in an aquarium. So the best I can do is tell them to keep it in bigger tanks
Sir mere paas 3 sharks hai mera tank 30*15*24 inches ka hai me 2 saal se inko paal rha hu 3 inches se yeh 7 inches ho gyi h 2 saal m. Kya me isko apne paas rkh skta hu ya me kya kru. I am feeling very bad for them and I am totally confuse. Please Help me.

It had to be addressed
Video ka ending ma vo flower horn ko kya kiya🤔🤔
You can watch this video to find out more: th-cam.com/video/JaccRL9-_ms/w-d-xo.html
There was 2 species on the video, iridescent Shark and Paroon Shark, Paroon Shark is much more beautiful ,aggressive predator and very expensive.
👌
Paroon shark come at the same price as iridescent sharks when juveniles, but yes, they are far more aggressive and looks more like an actual shark.
Sir can we keep dwarf gouramis or female bettas together with guppies in a guppy pond?
1 Gourami will be fine

Finally made a video on the fish which I used to keep in my tank when I was a child😅😂 Thanks Sir😊
Most welcome 😊
Conclusion........This is not at all with any angle , an aquirium fish for general hobbyst. ( big hotels resort owners with constructed PONDS gigantic tanks can afford them not a medium class hobbyist)
Yes they need huge space to swi
Sir there are 2 types of aquarium shark
1. High Fin shark
It is aggressive and attacks small fishes
In video when the shark is eating fish 10:36 is an high fin shark
2. Iridescent shark or tiger shark which usually everyone keeps in their aquarium they are calm ,non-aggressive and good to small fishes they are pure vegetarians
You can make differences in high fin and iridescent shark.
Correct also known as paroon shark
You are 100% right
Thanks sir for reply never think you will reply
No iridescent shark which you are saying tiger shark is vegetarian they can eat anything mera vala shark chicken aur live food aur oscar,flowerhorn pellets sab khata hai and I see that giving them non vegetarian and varied diet keeps them very healthy shiny and active mera shark is very healthy and good coloured than we can see in shops
Can we put Regular iridescent sharks with albino iridescent sharks???
You can
Sir, I have an interesting tale to share. I remember, as a child I had a couple of pairs of this shark in my aquarium. I was quite fond of them and took great care of them (the best I could at that time, with my limited knowledge and pocket money). They were quite active and healthy, grew more than half a feet in just a few months. At that time, I only had a 150 liter aquarium and it was getting a bit too cramped for these fish. I couldn't afford to get a bigger aquarium so instead, I decided to release them in a natural pond nearby (keep in mind the pond is fairly big with some other small fish). A few years later, I went to check upon these sharks and was surprised to see them thriving in that habitat. They had grown in number, I could see many offsprings. And the older ones I released had grown to around 4 feet in size (which was most astonishing for me). I knew they could grow to 1 feet or a bit more as I had seen some in a few shops but never this big!
please do not release pet fish into wild. They harm your local ecosystem.
@@boyscout8035 The pond I'm speaking of is not connected to any river or lake. Whatever threat they pose is only confined to that particular area which is about an acre wide. I was a child then with fixed pocket money, so I couldn't afford to buy a bigger tank. I thought the next best thing is to release them in there, instead of making them suffer in my small tank.
@@rohitmaddali the problem : 1) the pond you are talking about is (probably) accessible to the public whether it be a privately owned property or a public one. There are people (fishermen or a kid interested in fishes) who catch fish from one pond and transport it to a different one in hopes of stocking it with the new species of fish. This way it spreads. The people are not educated enough to understand how one invasive species can destroy an entire ecosystem.
2) the pond must've had smaller indian species of fish or other creatures and plants (judging by "natural pond". Now they are under threat from this species.
You could have euthanized them (it is simple, painless, easy and doesn't require an expert).
Please avoid this in future. It is better to euthanize than to release them in the wild. I'd even say let them suffer but don't release them in a habitat they do not belong to. If you do, you might be bringing suffering to an entire well established ecosystem.
@@boyscout8035 I really appreciate your concern for our local eco-system, but I can assure you sir, no one goes fishing in that pond. (It's not even a hobby here as most people don't eat fish, and the few that do only eat river fish). So no, no one is taking them out of there. And about the second problem you mentioned; Yes, there were some small fish in that pond, prior to me adding those sharks. They are definitely at a significant threat with the introduction of a foreign species. But as I mentioned in my previous comment, the pond is not anywhere near a lake or river so there's no way they are getting out of there, even if there are heavy rains and floods. Whatever threat they pose is strictly confined to this area alone which is about an acre/acre and a half at most.
Also, you're right, I could have euthanized them and I would if it was now, but I released them about 2 decades ago when I was an ignorant kid. It was the first and only time I had released pet fish into a natural habitat. So please don't worry, I never did that again, nor would I do so in the future.
Don't do it next time.
i bought 2 iridescent sharks yesterday
and didn't knew about this
thank you sir for this information
but what should i do with these 2 since i have 1',2' tank
feeling really sad 😔
and also i just created my first tank and didn't knew much about fishes
Return them to the shop and get small fish
This video was very dissappointing. I was expecting you to educate people for not buying it, but you are telling them how to keep it in tank.
Your disappointment is valid but I can't single handedly change what has already happened and is happening, who am I to tell people anything. No matter what people will still buy, I'm trying my best to provide the right information and help. I have mentioned in the video too that it is not to be kept in an aquarium. So the best I can do is tell them to keep it in bigger tanks
