    This was AMAZING!!! A lot of creators out there are happy with making content that is 10 minutes long, and having people feel like 5 minutes has passed. This is the exact opposite in a great way, I feel like this was 10+ minutes crammed into 5! Keep up the GREAT work!!!

      This video made me sad. It was like watching your favorite program, then the screen cuts to black stating those terrible words "To Be Continued"...knowing I have to wait all summer to find out if Captain Crayfish made it from the boat before it exploded. 🦐🦞🦐 : (

    Crayfish will always be my favorite creature on this planet. Discovered them in 3rd grade at a state park by my farm thinking they were lobsters at first. Ended up finding millions of them scattered across my farm that blue ones weren’t as rare to me. Nature turned a small pond we have into a crayfish only pond after the winter froze off the fish. They are resilient!

    I love the recent increase in your videography quality! I also love the ecology and educational angle that you are promoting instead of unchecked sensationalism. Please keep on making these types of mini documentaries in between your usual type of fishroom/LFS content!

      Mt Lewis is always a random collection of weather! It's one of the most amazing places in the entire region.
      Sadly climate change is causing a lot of issues up there especially with the white lemuroid possum (Hemibelideus lemuroides).
      Even those cool wet places at the tops of mountains are starting to get hotter and drier 😐

It saddens me that these new style/better quality videos are not getting as many views as your other stuff but people will catch on! It’s new and the algorithm needs time to adjust, but i think you should do mini documentaries and still do homestyle videos as well. Either way, cheers and keep it up!!!

    I actually go to Springfield national Park often which has the pamington crayfish too. Me and brother actually caught one abt 30cm long, it took us a while and we took photos before putting it back in its little stream, turns out when we got home we found out there arr two types of lamington crayfish, spiny and not spiny. The big one we caught was probably abt 20 -40 years old because it was so big and it was the non spiny I think. I didn't know there were others types of mountain crayfish too through, unfortunately you cant bring them home because they protected
