n today's video, I go searching for the mysterious animal that has been eating my fish for over a month! After losing HUNDREDS of fish including my 2 rare paddlefish
Comments are disabled for this video.
A lot of my fish have been going missing
for about a month now.
I lost almost $1,000 worth of fish.
Hopefully they're still alive.
Oh yeah, oh my God, they are.
Oh my God, Jason!
I forgot all the fish that I put in here.
There's so many.
Ah!
The coral snake has its red and yellow rings touching.
It is venomous.
That will actually kill you.
What are you, no, stop!
Come on, we're evacuating, Bruce.
No, no, no, no, there was something there.
It's massive, that's the biggest snake I've ever seen.
That's a six foot long snake, Christian.
What's up, BMP Nation?
Welcome back to another awesome video, guys.
Today, we got something going on here at my house,
a little mystery,
and we're gonna try and solve it tonight.
Now, we've had something really weird going on.
A lot of my fish have been going missing
for about a month now.
I haven't told you guys
because I've been trying to figure out
what's been going on,
and I literally do not know.
Basically, like I said,
in about three of my backyard ponds,
I've been noticing fish just disappearing
out of thin air.
I've been noticing fish just disappear out of thin air,
and I've been wondering what's going on,
and I've been stumped, honestly.
Like I said, tonight we're gonna try and stump it
and figure out what's going on.
The main reason I'm really upset about this,
okay, I've lost a lot of fish,
literally like tons of my cichlids
out of the cichlid pond,
and some really rare, expensive fish
out of my koi pond.
This one right here, you guys,
if you remember, we bought two paddlefish, okay?
I think they were about $400 each.
Prehistoric looking fish.
I was super excited about them.
You just grab them by the nose.
And now you just like toss them in.
There he is right there.
Oh, look, you can see him.
Oh, he looks so good in here.
And they were doing great in here, okay?
They were eating the pellets.
They were doing everything.
Everything was going good, right?
And then boom, they both vanished.
I'm like, what is going on?
There's nothing in this pond.
There's no fish in here that would eat them, okay?
There's nothing big enough to eat them.
So my first thought was,
okay, maybe a raccoon came and ate them.
But if you guys look over here on this tree, okay,
there's a camera.
And last time we had a predator come in here
and ate my fish, it was an alligator.
And we caught him with the camera.
Yeah, that one.
So I was like, okay, if a raccoon's coming here
and going like this, you know, eating the fish,
I feel like we would have seen it on the cameras.
There's a lot of fish in here still,
but a lot of the cichlids are missing.
Some other stuff's missing.
A lot of the iridescent sharks.
Couple Oscars disappear.
And like I said, the main ones, the paddlefish.
I lost almost $1,000 worth of fish with just those guys.
And yeah, I've had enough.
So tonight, what we're gonna do,
we're gonna drain this pond.
We're gonna figure out what's going on with it.
So we've got a pump hooked up right here.
We're gonna plug it in a little bit, drop all the water,
and we're literally gonna catch all the fish out.
Because I'm not taking any chances.
I don't want any more fish to be lost.
What we're gonna do, okay,
we haven't lost any fish in the Oscar pond,
the little above ground pool pond.
So what we're gonna do,
we're gonna take literally every single fish
out of this pond and bring them over to that one for now,
until we find out what's going on.
And you know what, guys?
We have had an alligator come in here two times before.
Look at that!
Oh my God!
That is an alligator and it's moving.
Who's gonna eat the fish?
And each time, I think it was the same one.
So who knows?
It might be him again, okay?
Each time he has eaten some of my fish.
But there is a chance that we drain this pond
and we find an alligator.
So Christian, I mean, just be ready to grab it.
You got it?
Why me?
Just cause I don't want to.
I'll grab an alligator.
Okay.
So yeah, guys, we're gonna try and find out what's going on.
I do want to show you the cichlid pond as well.
Cause yeah, I'm really sad to show you this,
but a lot of the cichlids are gone.
There's nothing in there.
No other fish that should be doing that.
I have no idea where they went.
I don't know if you can tell,
cause all the cichlids are sleeping.
There's still fish in here,
but I literally had thousands and thousands of fish.
And I'm not kidding you guys,
we're probably down to about a hundred right now.
I don't know what's going on.
There's no dead fish in the water.
All the fish are perfectly healthy and boom,
overnight they will just disappear.
And now we're down to about a hundred.
It's crazy.
I think it could be an alligator, maybe even two,
because a lot of fish are disappearing quickly.
Let's get started and start moving these fish around.
Okay guys, now what we have going on right now,
we actually did the same sort of video a few months back.
We drained this front pond, got all the fish out,
did a little recap.
So I'm actually really excited to see all the fish
that are in there right now.
It's going to be fun.
We have three coolers.
We're going to put them all in here
and then take them to the Oscar pond.
So if we plug this in, the pond should start draining.
Oh, I hear it.
Okay. It's working.
Okay. I'm a, dude, I'm nervous now.
I just realized I'm going to get in here
and start netting fish when there could possibly
be an alligator in here.
There it is!
Dude!
Did I get you?
Me? I didn't move.
Well, I'm sure I got the viewers.
Guys, if you thought that was real,
jokes on you, it's not.
This is to deter the other alligator.
Doesn't seem to be working.
No, it's definitely not working.
Last time there was a gator in here,
if you guys do remember it,
it was hiding in these bushes.
So it could be in here without me knowing.
Oh, what is this?
Dude, what is that?
Oh, it's a frog.
Okay. He's definitely not the culprit.
Look how fat he is.
Okay. Maybe he is the culprit.
Okay guys, we actually have a bunch of fire reels
in this pond.
I'm pretty sure they're in this little tubing.
So we're just going to dump them into this net.
Hopefully they're still alive.
Oh yeah. Oh my God.
They are.
Oh, they're definitely still alive.
What was that?
Like three of them right there?
Yeah. Three.
All right. Let's get them in the cooler guys.
We're saving you.
Oh, those are so pretty.
Those are fire reels right there.
Oh, look at the red on that one.
Dude, I love these things.
I really want to set up a tank for just the eels.
Let's get them in the cooler.
I'm sorry guys.
This is only temporary.
Okay. All right.
There they are.
Dude, they're huge.
Let's get their brothers and sisters.
We're going to turn the aerator on too.
I felt something else in this pipe,
but it was like really big.
It wasn't coming out.
Who's in there?
Oh, what is that?
Wait, you see that?
Is that fish?
What is that?
He's not, he's stuck.
Oh, I got him.
I got him.
Oh, it's one of the,
dude, I caught these at the abandoned ponds.
What the heck?
I forgot what it's called,
but look at the spines all along their body.
Oh my gosh.
They're so sharp.
I forgot he was in there.
See, this is why this is so fun to drain my pond.
Cause I forgot all the fish that I put in here.
There's so many.
That is one crazy looking fish right there.
Look at the spines on that thing.
Okay, buddy.
There you go.
How's that water level?
Oh, it's dropping pretty quick, actually.
Look at that.
All right, we're getting back in here.
Oh, look, little African cichlid.
Come on, buddy.
We're trying to save you.
Got him.
Look at that.
That's a beautiful red zebra right there.
In the cooler you go.
We're saving our own fish right now.
This feels weird.
Okay, the water level is about halfway dropped already.
Oh, there's Bruce.
Bruce, you survived.
Come on, we're evacuating, Bruce.
Oh, he's not putting up a fight.
Look at that.
There's the OG Bruce.
Okay, Bruce, come on, buddy.
Look at that, guys.
That is our oldest fish right there.
He's like a 16 year old Oscar.
Relax, dude.
Get in there, buddy.
You got it.
Poor Bruce, dude.
You know what?
He survived the gator two times.
Oh my God.
I thought that was Bruce again.
I was like, what the heck?
It's the other Oscar we caught.
Oh yeah.
Oh, look at that.
It's his clone.
This one, I gotta say, is a little prettier than Bruce.
Look at the colors on that Oscar.
That's beautiful.
Yeah.
Purple.
Really?
Christian's colorblind.
I think it's called a chili red Oscar.
We also caught that out of the Abandoned Pond.
See, this is so cool.
Cause we're catching out fish
that honestly I forgot about.
Oh yeah, it's a baby red tail.
Come here, buddy.
Oh, there's an iridescent shark too.
Dude, there's so many fish in here.
Anyone in here?
Oh, look at this.
That's a tetra right there.
That's like the biggest tetra I've ever freaking seen.
In the cooler.
Oh, there's the arowana, dude.
Oh my God, there's a gator.
Christian, there's a gator.
You see it?
Ready?
I'm gonna grab him.
Another one.
Got him.
Oh my God.
Look at that.
How many do you have here?
There's a lot of gators, dude.
Nothing in here.
Oh, did you see that?
Oh my God.
I can't grab him.
Oh my God.
Got him.
I got him.
Ah, ah, ah.
Oh, he's spining me.
Dude, look at the size of that freaking albino play coat.
That is the biggest one I've ever seen.
We definitely have to save this guy.
I mean, that's a lot of fish.
We haven't even put a dent in the pond yet.
Okay, I don't think if there is a gator in here,
he's probably not in here yet.
I think he would have attacked me.
Oh, that's the, yeah, the arowana.
Baby arowana.
Come on.
Got him.
Yes.
Now, this is the one we actually caught
out of that little waterfall that someone abandoned there.
One day he's gonna turn into a big one
like the one we just bought.
All right, there's our little bitty arowana.
Dude, he is adorable.
Oh my gosh.
Look at him.
Oh, he better not jump out of here.
Now, not all the fish that we catch out of here,
we're gonna put in the Oscar pond.
Obviously, we're not gonna throw the tetra in there.
We're just gonna spread all the fish around,
just not in here.
Because like I said, when the gator was coming here,
he would come here to feast, okay?
Whenever he was hungry, he would come,
eat one of my fish, and then go to the canal.
Oh my God, there's so many fish.
Oh my God, Jesus!
What is that?
What the heck?
Dude, there's so many fish in here.
Okay, you guys need to relax.
My God, I caught like 10 fish in one day.
Look how big the paku have gotten, bro.
Look at those red-bellied paku.
I forgot they were in here as well.
I literally, there's so many fish in this pond.
Look at this guy.
Another nice African cichlid, beautiful.
This is really cool.
I don't know what it's called,
but look how beautiful that fish is.
He's massive.
Caught him out of the abandoned ponds as well.
Beautiful.
Oh, there's a lot of koi right here.
Got him.
Oh, this is, that's a really nice one.
Oh, look at that.
He's changing colors, dude.
This koi used to be all blue,
and now he's getting yellow on him.
That's really cool.
I didn't know they could do that.
All right, got a little color-changing fish right there.
That's beautiful.
No sign of any predator that could be eating these fish.
What is that right there, right there?
Where, where?
It's underneath where this water's,
where are you getting your water from?
Dude, it was like red and like black, like an eel.
Oh, another fire eel?
Oh, I see him.
Wait.
No, I didn't get him.
Oh, more fish.
Oh, there we go.
Oh, look at that.
Another nice size albino placo.
Dude, I love these videos.
Cause I mean, look at the fish
we're pulling out of here right now.
Oh, I'm gonna just attack my, oh, look at this.
Christian, it's a fire albino placo.
Oh.
Oh, that's fast.
It's so hard to catch all these fish.
Oh.
Christian.
Oh my God.
Christian, Christian.
Where are we going?
Holy crap.
You gotta be, I'm not getting back in there.
You gotta be.
I got pants and shoes on.
You got, well, you gotta do, I'm not doing it.
It's a snake.
No, it's not a snake.
It's a snake and I'm pretty sure it's venomous.
It's a snake.
Dude, it's wrapped up in the fricking lily pads.
Oh my God, dude, my heart's pounding right now.
Let's go around the back and I'll show you.
It's a, it's one of those coral snakes,
like the venomous one.
I've seen them right here in front of my palm before.
Okay.
Dude, shine the light right there.
You see it?
Right there on the pot.
It's a fricking coral snake, right?
Isn't there some that, yeah.
There we go.
That's a coral snake, Christian.
Dude.
No way.
It's a coral snake.
Wait, is it red on yellow or red on black?
That's bad.
It could bite the fish and kill them, right?
It is venomous, I think.
Honestly, that could be the culprit.
Oh heck no.
Are you gonna grab it?
Not at all.
Well, we gotta do something about it.
Why isn't it moving?
No, I'm not.
Don't.
Okay, I'm serious though.
Don't get close to it.
Cause that will actually kill you.
Here, look it up.
Just look it up real quick.
Red on yellow or red on black.
If it's actually a coral snake, we can't, we're done.
Dude, what is going on right now?
Okay, I was expecting an alligator, not a coral snake.
You guys, where I am here in Florida, South Florida,
we've seen rattlesnakes in my backyard,
alligators, coral snakes.
I've seen these literally right by my koi pond,
but I never thought that they could actually
cause harm to my fish.
What's it say?
That one.
That one what?
It's not the one you should touch.
Wait, let me see it.
If a coral snake has its red and yellow rings touching,
it is venomous.
Let's inspect.
Yep.
Now what do we do?
I'm going to go home.
All right.
Now we got to figure out something.
Cause we can't just leave this like this.
No, the red tail.
We got to get the red tail out.
Christian, what are you doing?
Dude, what are you?
No, stop.
Christian, stop.
Oh my God.
Stop, stop.
Are you crazy?
Stop, dude.
It's right there.
The head's over there.
How do you know that?
Oh, I do see it.
I see its head.
Wait.
Yeah, that's his head.
No, stop.
Stop.
No, look at it.
Look at it.
You can see it.
Stop.
You're way too close to his face, bro.
There's no face.
Look.
What?
What did your fish do to it?
No.
Its head is gone.
Wait, really?
Yes, there's no head on it.
What?
That's a cool.
Wait, really?
Is that not his head?
So someone bit its head off.
I guess you don't have to worry about these.
I'm so confused.
I mean, could that,
what do you,
you're a snake person.
Do you think that it could have like killed the fish?
That if it bit it?
I mean.
Probably.
Maybe a small one,
but I mean you have some other cool stuff in here.
Like those Oscars,
you know them.
Yeah.
There's no way.
That's what I'm looking for,
but that is not good.
Everywhere I look,
there could be another snake.
I'm paranoid.
What do we do?
Okay.
Let's just get the rest of the fish out.
We'll act like we didn't see that.
Comment down below what you guys think.
Okay.
That's definitely a coral snake.
A very venomous snake as well.
I mean,
I'm pretty sure it could kill a human, right?
Oh, look at that.
Another albino flicker.
Oh, where are you going?
Oh, whoa.
Oh my God.
Whoa.
What is that?
Iridescent shark.
There's one,
one still in here.
What's that?
Oh, we got him.
Oh, look at that dude.
A tiger salmon nose.
Oh, look how fat he is.
He's eating good.
And a really pretty African cichlid.
Oh, I like that one.
Oh my gosh.
Look at his stomach.
Oh my,
Christian.
What?
Why did you put the snake?
Is that the same one?
Maybe.
Did you do that?
Maybe.
What is wrong with you?
Oh, I caught the red tail.
No way.
Yeah.
Look at that.
That's a nice one right there.
What is this?
Oh, Christian.
Christian.
I just caught that with my hand.
Another iridescent shark.
So there's so many fish in here.
They're just coming to me.
We put this guy in here a few months ago.
He's getting nice and big.
Beautiful red tail catfish.
Oh.
Oh my.
Whoa.
What the heck just happened?
Look at this Koi.
Thank God whatever is eating my fish did not eat this one.
Cause this one's gorgeous.
There he goes.
I like this one too.
The red and black.
We also got a bigger iridescent shark.
Look at that.
Ow.
I want to hold one.
Oh my God.
Dude, the iridescent shark just stabbed me like 10 times.
I'm still trying to grab him while you're over there dying.
I wish you guys could feel this pain.
I mean, I don't.
Here you go.
This will make you better.
It does make me feel better.
That's an electric blue cichlid.
We got two nice Koi right here.
Come on guys.
Oh, oh, oh.
Ow.
There we go.
Got another Koi.
There's a little Oscar right here.
Come on buddy.
No.
I got him.
Look at that.
Baby lemon Oscar.
Beautiful.
Oh.
Christian, it happened again.
Okay.
Get rid of it.
You actually thought that was real again?
Yeah.
I mean, you look at a coral snake.
Honestly, you're going to think it's real.
Oh my God.
Okay.
I'm going to put you right here.
Christian, what the hell?
No, no, no.
There was something there.
Oh.
Dude, no.
Something moved under my feet.
You just made me destroy all my mom's plants.
She's going to kill you.
I just trampled all the plants.
Dude, no.
Something is right there.
What did you do?
Dude, something is right there.
Where?
It was under me.
No, I was standing up on the edge.
What do you mean?
I was standing like right there.
You go look.
I'm not looking.
Here, you go look.
No, you, you do it.
Wait.
Oh, I like, I knocked your thing over.
Wait, it's in the skimmer?
Did you see something?
Dude, I felt something.
I was standing.
I was like squatting on it, looking at it.
It's probably a frog, bro.
That's where they go.
I'm just going to look.
If there's something, I'm not touching it.
All right?
Unless it's a frog.
He said, I'm touching a gator or grabbing a gator.
That's it.
I'm trying to look.
Oh.
Christian, are you kidding me?
I can't see.
I'm not going over there.
I'm not going.
Did you see it?
No, you ran.
Go back over there.
You do it.
I'm not, I'm not getting anywhere near that.
No way.
Dude.
It's a python, Christian.
Dude, what?
Dude, you can see it from here.
You see it?
How big is it?
It's huge.
It's like crawling out of your, what is it?
Is that a python?
It's massive.
That's the biggest snake I've ever seen.
Where is it?
Oh my gosh, dude.
Look at it.
It's up there, like in a place.
Oh, hell no.
No.
Okay.
That's it, Christian.
I mean, I'll grab that snake.
You'll grab it?
That kind, yeah.
No, you're not.
You're crazy.
That's the biggest.
Okay.
Be careful.
I've never seen one before.
That's a freaking massive snake.
Are you grabbing it?
It's like way up in these bushes.
Is that a python?
That's 100% what's eating the fish.
Where is he?
He's all wrapped up around me.
Dude.
He's wrapping up.
He's circled around me.
Are you serious?
Look how big this is.
It's wrapped around your whole hand.
Where is he?
Is he coming around here?
Oh, I see his head.
I see his head.
His head's right below you.
You see him?
Holy crap.
Dude.
No way.
You got him.
Oh my God.
Look, he's been eating the fish.
Look at his belly.
This is not a python.
Yes, it is.
No, it's not.
This is a boa.
A what?
Oh, did he bite you?
I've never seen a snake that big.
Oh, I think I got it.
You got it?
Holy crap.
Get that thing.
Oh my God.
It's huge.
What?
Oh my God.
It's the size of you, Christian.
I'm out of here.
I am out of here.
Oh my God.
It's wrapping around you.
It's a boa.
Like what people have for pets.
Are you serious?
So someone released it.
He's wrapping around you.
Oh my God.
Oh my.
Dude.
What the heck?
It's literally like six feet long.
He's wrapping around your leg.
I don't think that's good.
Oh my.
Oh dude.
So that's definitely the culprit.
Oh my gosh.
Oh no.
No, no, no, no.
It's like grabbing onto the rocks to pull against me.
I mean, seeing it now, like spread out,
that could literally eat any one of my fish.
That is so scary.
Look at that thing, dude.
Oh my God.
How is that real?
We should, oh, oh, oh.
We should put a flyer out, like lost snake.
What do we do with her, dude?
Do you know?
Like, do you call someone for this?
I mean, just like, you had that, like,
all those empty tanks.
We could kind of just put her in there maybe.
Until we find out what to do, yeah.
This has to be like somebody's pet.
Like these aren't just like.
Yeah, they're not native.
Pythons and stuff.
No.
Oh my God.
Okay, yeah.
We'll put them in the fish room for now
until we find out what to do.
All right, so this is the fish room.
It's going to be its temporary home
until we find out what to do.
You want to just put it in the tank for now?
We got to figure out what to do
because my mom is not going to, oh my dude.
I got to tell my mom about this
because if she comes out here tomorrow morning
I'll have a heart attack.
Okay, here, let's just leave it in here.
We'll shut the door and it'll be fine.
I think we could, unless there's multiple,
but I think we're in the clear now.
That's definitely what's been eating my fish.
Dude, I knew it because the fish were just disappearing.
That was the scariest moment of my life.
But I think now we can actually just put my fish back
because we got the culprit out of there, okay?
We'll figure out what to do with the snake.
Honestly, I don't know.
Maybe we'll call FWC.
All right, well, I guess it's time to fill the pond back up.
False alarm.
Okay, actually it wasn't a false alarm,
but we took care of it.
Now we can put everyone back.
It should be good.
Look at the cooler, guys.
Okay, this is probably like half of the fish
that are all in there.
Thankfully, we got that freaking crazy snake out of here.
Let's throw in the pond back up right now.
There they go.
Look at that net, dude.
That is so crazy.
All right, get out of here, guys.
Oh, let's get this massive flaco back in there.
Oh, that is so cool.
This makes me happy.
There you go.
Look at that.
Got the last of the fish, three more.
And there they go.
That was insanely unexpected, okay?
When we started this video,
I thought we were just gonna be moving my fish out.
I had no idea where we're gonna find out
what was actually eating them.
And I didn't think it was gonna be that freaking snake,
okay, that gave me a heart attack.
And the coral snake.
I mean, what is going on right now with the snakes?
We're filling the pond back up.
It's gonna be good to go here in a little bit.
Let's go check on the snake real quick.
Make sure he's still in there and he didn't escape
because that would suck.
I'm scared.
I'm nervous.
Here, I'll go look for it.
Yeah, you go first.
Dude, it's actually huge.
That's the biggest snake I've ever seen.
What?
Okay.
Oh my God.
Yeah, guys, we called FWC.
They're gonna come here and take the snake.
I don't know what they're doing with it,
but it's not gonna be eating my fish anymore.
That's for sure.
Yeah, guys, that was freaking crazy.
If you did enjoy this unexpected video,
please go down there and leave a like,
subscribe down below.
I'll see you guys on the next one.
Peace out.
