@@greggorman5537honestly i think dude just likes his eels, needed a big enough area and decided to send em to the pit if i could i’d 100% have a fish pit
i still cant get over how curious your sturgeons are, like just casually checking out your arm. or immediately coming over if you make any waves. just funny to me seeing them not being afraid of you
sturgeon are such an interesting fish, i think it be cool if you gave like a short 5min video talking about them, cool facts, that sort of thing. Id definitely love to watch
@@kentuckyfriedpepespeaks1550 possibly but this species usually maxes out at 4-5ft in captivity at that size I’d be alright. Either way it’ll take them 10-20 years before I would need to worry about it.
Man that eel pit is awesome, you're some lucky to have that man! Thanks for sharing your videos and love for the animals! Cheers! ps the skinfade a few vids ago looked dope!
Would be great to section off a quarter or so of the pit for with a fine mesh or close together sticks, to make a safe section for small fish to breed and live. They definitely looked brilliant, and made it feel way more natural and interesting.
This just absolutely is the coolest thing and when I first started watching you I was like this guy is crazy but now I’m sitting around wishing that my house built in 1962 had a cistern!! I would be down there with a hammock chilling during the summer months not spending a lot of energy on air conditioning. And since I’m under 5 feet tall I don’t have to worry about hitting my head
@@Thomas_____ you can test for it. I know my basement is fine. I can’t live without a basement because we have tornadoes here then I wondered about getting in a cistern during a tornado how weird would that be with my luck The house would fall down land on the opening to the cistern and then I’d be sitting in the dark in the with the eels. That might creep me out
to deal with the walking height- you could place blocks to walk on then a water tight wall around them with blocks so you dont walk any higher and can still raise the water level
Doesn't necessarily have to be water tight (if you can bear wet feet or using boots). The important thing is isolating the walk way from the animals. "Animal tight" walls will suffice.
maybe when it gets fuller, you could put a small kayak down there? rather than an island of cinder blocks? It'd allow you to explore without hitting your head and buying a bunch more blocks
As some one who's been there and experienced this first hand (not as an eel pit owner, as a fish, once I was reincarnated as a catfish) I would be perfectly happy living in that pit. Clean, warm, plenty of food, lots of company a 24/7 party. Liked and subbed.
Hands down one of the best RU-vid channels. Relaxifying to the max. Crazy how I didn't know that visions of an eel pit would enhance my life so dramatically. I totally fantasize about snorkeling down there too. Just a really great idea💡 kudos for real
It seems like that corner with the old island was a good spot for the smaller fish or ones that didn't want to be out in the open to hide. Any plans to put something else there as a replacement?
Man i absolutely love what you have done im moving inti a house next month with a systern and hioe the owner lets me open it for this type of use please bring us more material i love your names for the gars and eels!!!
Curious what depth it is at now and where the depth goal is. Apologies if I missed that part. I'm just curious how deep you want to go so I can give suggestions on species Keep up the great work! Super cool
I would guess that paddlefish would take a hell of a lot of water. They are monsters when I was a kid I saw someone pull went out at my local dam and thought I am never going in the water again!
