I Bought the BIGGEST Fish in the Store!

We're gonna be adding a monster fish to my backyard pond. Hopefully they don't eat our new friend. Oh, Jesus. One of my favorite fish died. Look at this. It's just rows and rows of fish tanks. That's a really cool catfish right there. I don't know what that is. It's the biggest fish in the store. Oh my God. He ripped the net. Three, two, one. What's up, BFB Nation? Welcome back to another awesome video, guys. Today, we're going back to that new fish store I recently found that is filled with rare fish. That's the place we bought the three vampire fish recently. Those scary fish with the giant teeth. Now that was the first time I've ever been there and I was blown away at the selection of fish they had. I was seeing fish I've never seen before. Really rare stuff, expensive fish. And we're going back today, okay? He said that he's got a new shipment in yesterday. So there's gonna be a lot of new fish there. I can't wait to see what else he's got. But this time we're going there to buy a big fish, okay? A fish to add to my predatory fish pond. Now this right here, guys, is my 7,200 gallon monster fish pond filled with insane exotic fish. You got iridescent sharks there. You got arowanas, red-tailed catfish. And yeah, this is where we put all of our big boys. Now when I was at the fish store, I noticed they had a giant arowana. Now I love arowanas. However, it's actually my girlfriend's favorite fish. She loves them to death. We got four of them in here. They're growing really big. You can see one cruising right by there. You can see they're getting really big in here. We got a couple of little guys growing out in the other ponds. But I saw that arowana in the fish store and I've never seen one that big for sale. So when the owner of the store, Dewey, told me that it was for sale for $400, I knew I had to have it. We set a like goal though. I said 50,000 likes and I'd buy it. I know it's a lot, but you guys actually killed that video and it actually got like 20,000 likes. And I think that's good enough. So what we're gonna do, we're gonna go there and we're gonna buy this massive arowana. I don't even know how it's gonna happen because it's a monster fish. Not sure how we're even gonna transport it. It's gonna be insane. We're gonna go there and we're gonna buy it and we're gonna surprise my girlfriend with it. I'm gonna pick her up after I get it and we're gonna come here and I'm gonna show her what I got. She's gonna flip out. I mean, this arowana is like double the size of the ones I have. These guys are pretty big. I mean, they're getting up there. So that is the plan. Like I said, he did get a new shipment of fish yesterday. So we're gonna get to see all those new fish, see what else he got. Maybe we'll walk out of there with something else. You always know how it goes. Last time we went there for vampire fish, one of them, we bought three of them and a red tail catfish. I just can't help myself. So I'm really excited to go there. However, we got stuff to do around here, right? We gotta feed the predators to make sure when we put the arowana in there, they don't eat them. Cause even though that arowana is massive, my red tails are definitely big enough to swallow it whole. So we've got a bucket full of tilapia here. We're gonna fatten them up. So hopefully they don't eat our new friend. Look at these arowanas, dude. Oh, Jesus. I don't think I got that on camera, but like three of the arowanas just attacked me. Oh my God, just take it. Scary fish, look at the arowanas. Here comes the red tails. Come on guys, who's hungry? Oh, oh, mini blaze. Oh, Jesus. We're in the splash zone right now. There's Ian. Oh, look at that big mouth, dude. See, he could definitely take that arowana. Man, I'm telling you guys right now, these red tails are getting so big. Ever since I put them in this new giant pond, I've been feeding them like crazy and they've been putting on some size. Oh, there's the rip saw down there, the giant one. All right, we just fed all the big fish. Hopefully they're full now and they don't go after this new arowana we add in here. And in the front pond, we actually do have a little baby arowana growing out. We're gonna feed him right now. Now we actually caught him out of that pond that someone dumped him in not too long ago. We're gonna throw a piece of food, see if he eats. Oh, he just got it. He grabbed it right there. That's the arowana. Look at him go. Look at all these fish in here. Oh, they're going crazy. Hey, there's Bruce. He came to say hi. You guys haven't seen Bruce in a while. He usually just sleeps all day, but there he is. He's doing good. Now guys, I do have some really sad news that I have to tell you. As you guys know, in my fish tank inside, we got the two tigrinus, the goonish catfish and the three vampire fish. Now, last night I was feeding everyone. I actually got the vampire fish trained to eat. I was feeding everyone, everyone was eating. And then the tigrinus got spooked from the vampire fish eating. They took a bite out of something. The tigrinus went crazy. And if you guys know anything about these fish the most common way for them to die is them giving themselves a concussion because they're really fast, really quick fish. When they get spooked, they just dart off and then they smack themselves in the head into the glass. And that's happened to me before with these types of fish. And sadly that happened last night. I'm going to show you a video. I mean, the fish was perfectly healthy. It was fat. It was eating, hand-fed, super healthy tigrinus catfish. He was getting so big and it's really sad guys. I was devastated. I love these fish, but it really sucks guys. As you can see, there's only one tigrinus in here. That's the one up in the corner. But yeah, guys, we're going to go ahead and feed the fish right now and show you guys the vampire fish eating. All right, we got some tilapia. We're going to drop in here and see everyone go after it. Oh, here comes the goons. Here comes the goons. He smells the food. Come on, buddy. Come on, figure it out. Just swim out of the tunnel, buddy. There you go. All right. Oh my gosh. Oh, he just took a mouthful right there. So yeah guys, some really sad news there about the tigrinus catfish. It really sucks, but we got to move on. We got a cooler in the back right now. We're going to head to the fish store, do a little tour, show off all the new fish he got in yesterday from his shipment, buy the arowana, and probably more fish, and then pick up my girlfriend on the way back home and then surprise her with it. It's going to be awesome, guys. I can't wait. So let's head over there now and get these fish. All right, guys, we just got to the store. Oh, Dewey, how you doing? You know what I'm here for? Big arowana. What else you got going on? You got anything else? Got the flounder. Oh, a freshwater flounder, that's pretty cool. We'll look around the store. We'll check out everything, but we know what we're here for. We know we're here for the big arowana. Maybe I'll buy something else. Probably will. All right, guys, so last time I was here, there were so many fish tanks, I just couldn't show everything. So this time I'm going to do a little more in-depth little tour here, show all the fish. I mean, there's just rows and rows of fish tanks. It's actually insane. We'll start back here. We got a lot of parrot cichlids. We've got some paku right here. There's this guy. I don't even know what that is. It's like some sort of cenodontus or something. I mean, everywhere you look, every fish tank, there's just crazy fish. I mean, look at this. That right there is a fish I need. That is an albino Asian red tail. One of my dream fish. I've been wanting one for so long. I just haven't pulled the trigger. If you guys think I should get that one, go down there and comment. He's got them all over the place. I think he's got like three. And there's a lot of really pretty flower horns here. I mean, look at this guy. That is one pretty fish. Oh my gosh, no way. He's got more of the vampire fish. Check this out, guys. Last time we were here, the reason we came to the store is for these fish. When I was here, there was three of them. I bought all of them. It looks like he restocked a little bit. Oh, look at that. There's even like a little baby right there. These are cool. I got enough. All right, I got enough vampire fish. Ooh, look at that, albino arowanas. I want albino ones too, but I'm after like the big boys. Ooh, this one's a lot bigger actually. This one's a lot bigger actually. Look at the size of that silver arowana. Ooh. See, I told you he's got more Asian red tails, albinos. Those are so cool. Gulper cat in the back. Some really cool pikes right here. Ooh. Oh my gosh. It's called a vampire placo. Oh, I got the vampire fish. Do I need the vampire placo? That's really cool. It's like black and white dots. He's got like some crazy mouth on him too. That's really cool. I kind of want him actually. I love these really fancy placos. He's got them all over the place. He's got the gold ones. He's got that vampire one. I might get that, honestly. He's really cool. And he can go in the tank with a vampire fish. It'll be a little vampire tank. Go over here on this row. Ooh, look at that. Giant red tail garami. That's really cool. Those things get massive. Ooh, a really pretty Midas right there. Ooh, I like that one. Oh my gosh. I didn't even see these last time. Look at that, clown night fish. These are different. These are actually royal clown night fish. And then golden clown night fish. Those are really cool. Oh, look at this. Little baby arowana. See, that's the fish we're getting today, but ours is a lot bigger than these guys. And these guys are 50 bucks. Ooh, I really want a royal clown night fish, guys. Let me know if I should get one of these. These are really cool. God, there's so many fish. This is what I was talking about, guys. I don't even know like what to film or what to buy because there's so many. Look at this. It's just rows and rows of fish tanks. So many fish. Look at arowanas. These are really pretty Oscars. You got the chili reds right there. Now, I would love to get an albino one, these little guys, but they're so expensive. I mean, look at that. He's 200 bucks. There's so many cool fish here, just like last time. But one fish that's calling my name right now is the vampire placo. I've never seen him before. I didn't even know it was a thing. We might get one of those. I really want him. All right, now we're going down the other side. He's got a really nice planted tank right here. Another one. Another thing I really like is these little pontoons he's got in there with all the koi. Look at these little guys. You guys hungry? Oh, look, they come to my finger. He's gotten separated by size. He's got small ones, little medium ones, some bigger ones, and then bigger ones. He's even got some little iridescent sharks in there. So cool. Now, guys, I told you why we're here. I told you what fish we're buying, and that is the giant arowana. I'm looking at it right now. I mean, you can't miss it. As soon as you walk in, he's right there. He's huge. And he takes up like the whole tank. This is a huge tank. And he like just fills it in. Ooh, look at this. I don't know what that is. I'm getting distracted again. It looks like he's got, I don't know if this is for the, is this for the arowana? Yeah. You think he's going to fit in there? Yeah. We'll try. Okay, well, that's the box right here. And that's the arowana. Look how massive this thing is, you guys. I wish you could tell on camera, but he is just massive. You'll be able to see how big he is, you know, once we get him out of this tank. But man, is he big. He's like thick too. Like, look how far around he is. What are you feeding him? That fish. Look at that catfish. That's a really cool catfish right there. I don't know what that is. Oh my gosh. It's going to be so cool, guys. Well, we're going to attempt to catch him out of here, bag him up. But, oh my gosh. I mean, look at my hand next to him, you guys. He's freaking huge. I think I'm going to get the vampire play-co too. I got the vampire fish. Now I'm getting it. Now I have the vampire play-co. Vampire play-co. Yeah. Okay. Let's do it. All right. That guy right there, the vampire. Yeah, look at his face. That's crazy looking. That's cool. Sweet. Vampire play-co secured, guys. Now it is time to get big old arowana. Oh, I'm nervous, dude. I'm telling you right now. Like, I want the fish really badly. I mean, look at him. Look at him from here. He covers the whole tank. You excited? Oh, he's running from you. Oh God. Moment of truth. Here it is, guys. Oh, he chewed you. He knows what's going on. He's eyeing you up. It's happening. Oh, he's grabbing it. No, no, no, no, no. So he doesn't like to jump, huh? He's not a jumper. Yeah, hopefully he doesn't jump, guys. Arowanas love to jump and that would not be good. He does not want to come home. Come on. Gosh, I'm like nervous. I'm sweating. Oh my gosh. Just cooperate, buddy. You're going to go to a big pond. Don't want to get a bigger net? Oh, there we go. Oh, he just swam right in. Oh God. Yeah, big pond. Oh, got him. Oh my gosh. Oh, he's so big. He made a hole in the net. Oh, he made a hole in the net? Oh no. Oh my God. Wow. He made a giant hole in that net. Man, you guys, he does not want to come home. He's a fighter. Those are his scales. Look how big his scales are. It'll be a lot easier if you just cooperate. All right, round three. Oh, we got him. Oh God. Oh God, we got him. Oh, he punched another hole through it. We got him. All right, good job. Okay, yeah, he fits in there. He's just a little cramped. Look at that. Oh, that's so cool. That's a big one. We're going to name him Dewey. Just like the redtail. All right, we did it guys. Got the arowana. Yep, going to pump some oxygen in there so he's good for the ride home. That went pretty smooth. That went smoother than I expected. I got paid Uncle Sam. All right, we got our fish. You got your fish. Thank you. Hey, what's the name of your store so people can come here? Reef Lounge Miami. Go check it out, guys. Thank you. Okay, thanks. All right, we'll see you soon. We did it guys. We got our arowana and a vampire play-doh. I know Helen's going to love the arowana. Not sure about the play-doh. Play-doh's kind of for me. Going to make sure to buckle in the fish, you guys. All right, arowana's buckled in. He's ready to go. God, that was nerve wracking, dude. I did not want him to jump out of there. Arowanas are known jumpers. There's no lid on that tank. Oh my gosh, that was stressful, but we did it. Dewey did it. All right guys, we're going to head home now. We're going to pick up my girlfriend on the way and we're going to wait to get home to show her what we got. Oh my gosh, it's going to be crazy, guys. We'll see you there. Oh, here she comes. Hi. What is this? What are you recording? I'm just, I'm just vlogging my life. What is that? Oh, whoops, no, nothing. Why are you being weird, what is this? I got a surprise for you. Birthday surprise?

Oh God, it popped the bag. What, what bag? What is this? Okay, guys, the present is acting out and it's, oh my God. Okay. All right, we're out of here. We got to get home quick, guys. This thing is acting out. Oh my, is he good? Question, is it an arowana? You'll find out. Stop guessing. Okay, it's definitely an arowana. No, it's not. We're like 10 minutes home, guys. We're going to get there real quick and then we're going to show Helen what the surprise is. It's definitely not an arowana. Really? No. Okay, guys, we made it home. I got the fish right here. My mom. Mom, come look at this new fish. Look what I got for Helen. No. Oh my God, it's huge. We're going to head back to the back. We also got that other fish. We're going to get him in the tank as well, but he's doing good. He popped the bag, but he's still, he's still swimming. That's good. All right, now, Helen, this is actually a two-part present. The first part is this right here. You love it? You love it or what? It's a vampire playground. We're going to get him in this tank with a vampire fish and we're going to have a vampire only fish tank. Melanie, what are you doing? Why does he always do that? Oh my gosh. Look at the thing. He's so spiny. Look at those spines all. Oh, that was close. Go buddy. Oh, he's so cool. Oh, he's just sucking on the glass. That thing is awesome looking. Look at him. He's just going, oh my gosh. Oh, vampire fish versus vampire play go. Who will win? Three new additions to the fish tank. Now guys, let's get that big fish into the pond. You ready to see it? The big reveal guys. Oh my God, it's so big. Merry Christmas, Helen. Here we go. Three, two, one. Boom. Look at the size of that arowana. Oh my God. Is that not awesome? Oh my God. I know, he's huge. He's going to look so good in here. So yeah, this is a giant arowana, you guys. I can't wait to see him next to the other ones we have. Cause this guy is literally like double the size. Oh, see that's what he was doing in the car the whole time. I'll just net him up and we'll get him into the pond. Nice and easy, buddy. Please don't jump out. Got him. I got him. Oh my gosh. Look at the size of that arowana. He's so pretty too. All right. Oh, easy, easy, easy. All right, there he is. Oh my gosh. Look how gorgeous that arowana is. Look at the blue on his face. We're going to add him to the pond. You like him, Helen? I love him, he's so pretty. There he goes. Come on. Oh, he looks good. Oh my God. He's huge. He literally looks massive in there, you guys. Oh my gosh. Where's the other arowanas? I want to see him next to him. Look how big he is. Wow, he looks really comfortable already. What do you want to name him, Helen? Taylor. Look, he's exploring his new home over there. He's just swimming around. I want to see him meet the other arowanas. Where are they at? They always hide. Oh, there they are in the back. Yeah, there they are. They're cruising back there. That's the school of arowanas. We got four. Hopefully they get along. Arowanas can fight. Look how pretty. He's gorgeous. Oh my gosh. I'm so happy. Helen, what do you think? Do you like it? I love it. Thank you. She's literally like double the size of the other ones. Look, here he comes right now. He's so majestic looking. Oh, he loves me. Oh, he's so pretty. Well guys, what we're going to do, we're going to do a little 24 hour update on the Play-Go and the arowana. We're going to come back in just a second and show you how they're doing. If you look here at my pond, the water level is already, you know, really low. And that's so the arowanas don't jump. You guys are always asking, why don't you fill it up more? If the water was all the way at the top, the arowanas could jump out a lot easier. Yeah, guys, we'll see you tomorrow when we check up on our new fish. All right, you guys, it is the next day. We're going to check up on the fish. We got the vampire Play-Go right behind me. He's doing good. And yeah, I love this Play-Go. The black and white dots are amazing. Now we're going to head outside. I haven't checked on the arowana yet. I haven't seen him yet. So hopefully everything's okay. Hopefully he's swimming. Hopefully he is alive. Hopefully no one ate him. Hopefully he didn't jump out. A lot of variables, but hopefully he's okay. Let's go check on him. All right, do we see him? Yes, he's right over there. You see him? Yes, he's alive. Where is he? He's over here. Oh, is that him? Oh, that is him. Look, he's darkened up. That's good. That means he's not stressed. Oh, that's really good. Oh, you look so good. Happy birthday. Everyone say happy birthday to Alan. All right, Taylor the arowana, he survived the night. Another monster to the army, to the collection. This pond is freaking insane, guys. We have so many fish in here. I've even decided, I think I'm going to get another one of these ponds. I'll put it right there. Oh my. Yeah. If you guys want to see that, subscribe so you don't miss it. But yeah, guys, hopefully you did enjoy this video. If you did go down there, leave a like, subscribe down below. I'll see you guys in the next one. Peace out.
