UNPACKING our African fish delivery with RARE pufferfish, tetras, cichlids and more

A super cool unboxing of some species we've never had in store before. Cichlids, pufferfish, tetra, barb and climbing perch: this delivery had it all!

Which species do you think I should set up an aquarium at home for? let me know in the comments which one you would choose?

The mini studio is also nearly finished with all the components arriving just before I left for holiday. I am so excited to get back and set up loads of fish tanks!

Wow those blue eyed congos are STUNNING

I've had P. aurantiacus for around a year now, and they are great species. The males get an electric green stripe along the belly and the showy fins like the normal Congos. The females are also stunning with vibrant yellow color and the blue eyes. My favorite tetra by far. Thanks for showing us the unboxing!

Looking forward to seeing what replaces that huge African tank. Loved the video with md that it was made in

As soon as you said the 8 foot tank will be going soon, my first thought was, oh great!! Of course MD has to scape it again xD

Always excited to see and learn about fish!

[theanimanga]

Your videos should have three times the views. You are awesome 👏

[caiocesar]

Awesome video as always! It's amazing the amound of work that goes into them! Footage from Weeks or Months appart, straight to the point and full of unalterated excitment! The only bad thing about watching you is that you make me wanna buy more tanks but i have no more space in my current apartment... But *maybe*....

[reecealexander]

Love your shop Matt, you're a legend - Cheers from downunder

Why don't I have LFS like this near me 😔 the fish look so healthy and colourful. The exact same specifies in my LFS look like a different breed as they are so pale in comparison! Hats off to every worker at this store 👏👏👏

[jerryjiang]

Where I come from the Phenacogrammus aurantiacus is pretty common. You'll find them at most fish stores at a reasonable price. They are quite lovely and they look amazing in a blackwater tank

Years ago I use to work part time in a local aquarium store I look forward to fish delivery day. Opening up the shipment to see what you got was like Christmas morning always a surprise to see each bag. So I understand your excitement on opening day. It was a harder work day but seeing what you got made it worth it. So I also appreciate the work you got to do after the unboxing of the fish. Most customers don't understand the extra work that has to be done before you go home for the day as they are live animal that need special care immediately and going home is not option until you are cpmplete done. And as you see a new fish you what to take them home immediately which create aquarium syndrome where you keep adding tanks to you collection then one day you house is filled with aquariums.

Feel free to tape any of your unboxings lol love watching these!
