Some types of sturgeons live only in fresh water for example there is a river close to were I live called the peace River in Canada, Alberta/British Columbia were sturgeons live
I grew up catching white sturgeon here in the Columbia of the Pacific Northwest and they also just stay in the river, if you go out to the coast you can find some green sturgeon in the tributaries that go back and forth fresh to salt. But I've seen old photos of white sturgeon 22 feet long from back in the day!
Another good video. I'm particularly impressed you were able to avoid the way too common mistake of using American paddlefish pictures when talking about the Chinese paddlefish.
Woooh finally the Nile Perch, I first saw them as a kid in an old National Geographic book. They were old black and white pictures of absolutely giant Nile.
If there next episode...i have suggestions how about some snakehead fish..they can growth pretty big and tapah fish... I heard these fish also big enough to swallow people also tapah has some interesting story about curse fish
for next list I would like point out some of the large freshwater fish my tops 5 goes as follows 1 jau catfish-4ft 7.118 2 colombian giant short tail stingray from (river monster)-5 ft disk diameter 3 helecopter catfish-9ft 4 giant snakehead-4.9ft 5 muskie pike-6ft and extra other are red tail catfish-5ft 11 inche blue catfish-5ft 5 inches mashieer or golden mashieer carp-9ft rohu carp-6.6ft Cathla carp-6ft although some of these fish does not grow big enough to eat you theay are considered as a big fish
@@platinumchillheart3044 They have been documented in parts of Southern India. But those were from ages ago. Current records of giants are not known. That being said, the fisher's catch and see more fish than a sports fisher, aquarium collector (who prefer small fishes) or even a scientist. So, there could be some giants out there. Also, many protected and community conservation areas have been created, which preserve the fish fauna in them thereby allowing the fish to grow and that can have a positive effect on their size. But Mahaseers are generally larger than Rohu or Catla.
Lmao! The mouth on the Piraiba is really big... shows a car being swallowed and then proceeds to show a planet, but not just any planet.. Jupiter, of all things. Lmao, the size difference is extraordinary and that fish can swallow it all. Impressive!
I'm a river monster. I'm eleven feet tall and 680 lbs. I haven't eaten a human yet, but don't push me. I mostly like eating cow, pig, sheep, and chickens, but now and again I will take salmon, lobster, and shrimp when I can get it. I will also accept vegetative matter, but I'm somewhat picky about that, eating it only when it's very fresh, ripe, and in season.
have you heard about Mangar fish? the scientific name is Luciobarbus Esocinus, its local to Turkey, Iran and Iraq fresh waters, it can grow up to 7.5 foot and weight up to 310 lb.
No sturgeon? The Beluga might not count, as they spend most of their time in the ocean, but the white sturgeon is still massive, up to 6m, and nearly 450kg.
I have to say, I've fished for sharks from piers and the beach as well as large catfish in North America but the most terrifying river monster is not on this list. It reaches minimum lengths of 15 ft and 2000 or more pounds, and its found all over North America. Boaters, swimmers, and especially kayakers are meanced every year by karens and kevins in motor boats, sometimes drunk and sometimes not but always entitled and some times dangerously so.
Piraiba catfish- (gravely deep voice) hey you, hey you,.. come here boy! I'm hungry. Make me a sandwich. I said boy, I'm hungry! Me- just take the children but spare me
ehhhhhhhhhh think the paddle fish was recorded at lengths of 22ft .. the paddle is nearly halkf its body length thou..so depends if you included the "paddle"
So you make all these exceptions for these other fish, but don't include the Lake Sturgeon, found in the Great Lakes region of the United States. 100% freshwater fish, that reach over 7 feet in length.
"very large prey items" edit fricking Jupiter into his mouth. You killed me 😂
that was great
And Darth Maul lol
3:03 The mouth of the Piariba is so big that it is able to swallow cars and planets XD

always a great video!! can you make an episode of extinct fish for us, please?
Yes ! That would be so good !
i will give it a go soon
This is good, extinct fish with their ancestors in the present day
@@jsaquaarts4508 or maybe fish that goes extinct on the present day
@@farisrl1257 well that would be good, mt example to my comment is
Bawitius (prehistoric)
Modern day Polypterus (present)
100% effort shame you can’t give awards on UA-cam.
that comment is all i need, thanks SP :)
Redditor spotted
@@crevice5369 haha you got me...
I love the relaxing theme of your video. Other list videos have extremely flashy and noisy themes that I cannot stand.
Another good video. I'm particularly impressed you were able to avoid the way too common mistake of using American paddlefish pictures when talking about the Chinese paddlefish.
I always enjoy these videos, as a catch and release angler I love learning about any species and these videos always have me “hooked”😂
Giggle fish pun 🐟 🎣
Hilarious
If you are going to include the length in meters please put the weight in kg as well. Thank you.
Jeez, the Piraeba seems scary… Basically just a Shark, but freshwater
Locals in brazil talk about how big ones just swallow adult people whole but the massive ones are gone unfortunately
Keep going dude your videos are goood man you will grow big 👍
That was a good video but I think the is one fish you could have put on the list witch is a murray cod
Awesome video, be interested in seeing largest saltwater fish. (Minus sharks and similar things)
Im not sure if somebody has said it yet but I think the yellow masheer is a contender in terms of it's length
2:35 The Piraiba has always been one of my favorite River monsters for years
Love all the videos! Keep it up
you know i will :)
Talk about paddle fish , they live here in Texas at a smaller size they need more love
Bichirs! Polypterus
Secure? Who taught u to talk? The army?
Paroon Shark a.k.a. Chao Phraya giant catfish is also quite large. It is similar in shape to Mekong giant catfish and can reach around 2.5m in length.
Such a delightful channel, always well-paced, highly interesting, well-researched and humble. Love it.
Woooh finally the Nile Perch, I first saw them as a kid in an old National Geographic book. They were old black and white pictures of absolutely giant Nile.
sooo coool tsuki great job and great channel
7th yeees
Thanks Mike I really appreciate it :)
If there next episode...i have suggestions how about some snakehead fish..they can growth pretty big and tapah fish... I heard these fish also big enough to swallow people also tapah has some interesting story about curse fish
Such a cool video. Thanks for your effort. 🙂
I'm kinda surprised the Hucho Taimen didn't get a shout out. That thing has a pretty wicked reputation.
I caught a rather big fish once, it was so strange. It was all black, and had no eyes. I found out later that it was a submarine.
Love it sorry i have not been active in your channel because they started school in India so i was not able to watch now school is closed agin
Hey Tsuki, I recently started watching your videos and I have been enjoying every single one of them! Keep it up!
WOW !!! That is really Amazing Fish !!
I must say its a great Video again
Thanks Finn Kush i appreciate it as always:)
for next list I would like point out some of the large freshwater fish my tops 5 goes as follows
1 jau catfish-4ft 7.118
2 colombian giant short tail stingray from (river monster)-5 ft disk diameter
3 helecopter catfish-9ft
4 giant snakehead-4.9ft
5 muskie pike-6ft
and extra other are
red tail catfish-5ft 11 inche
blue catfish-5ft 5 inches
mashieer or golden mashieer carp-9ft
rohu carp-6.6ft
Cathla carp-6ft
although some of these fish does not grow big enough to eat you theay are considered as a big fish
A 6ft Rohu and Catla are just fisher's tales.
@@Roonlovesfish3874 what about mashieer carp
@@platinumchillheart3044 They have been documented in parts of Southern India. But those were from ages ago. Current records of giants are not known.

@@Roonlovesfish3874 so in a way my estimate was true to some point yes
@@platinumchillheart3044 For Mahaseers, I would say yes.
Amazing video!!!!!
thanks Paddy i appreciate it :)
@@TsukiCove thank you for having great videos available for me to watch:)
Best is the "can swollow large prey items" clip. It swollows a planet, lol.
Could you make a part 3 for this video?
There really are more fish
Lmao! The mouth on the Piraiba is really big... shows a car being swallowed and then proceeds to show a planet, but not just any planet.. Jupiter, of all things. Lmao, the size difference is extraordinary and that fish can swallow it all. Impressive!
Congo tiger fish also huge and Irrewaddy giant catfish is also over 7 feet and weighs 300 lbs I think
Love from India🇮🇳. Awesome video bro
thanks i appreciate it :)
Great series, and subbed!
Good video man✌✌
A video on fish that need our help would be nice to raise awareness but as always, it's your call don't do it if you don't want to
good idea but I think more than half of the FW water and 80% of SW species need our help.
Loved this vidoe bro keep doing it.
Awesome video
Can you do aquarium fish from Canada 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
Excellent video keep it up.
I'm a river monster. I'm eleven feet tall and 680 lbs. I haven't eaten a human yet, but don't push me.

have you heard about Mangar fish? the scientific name is Luciobarbus Esocinus, its local to Turkey, Iran and Iraq fresh waters, it can grow up to 7.5 foot and weight up to 310 lb.
Why include the paddle fish when you went out of your way to exclude the sturgeon?
Woohoo I came in 4th, great video
Thanks i appreciate it :)
i literally know every species because of river monster XD
I always watch these videos and count the ones that Jeremy Wade caught on the show
Same
good job tsuki
How many "swish" sounds can 1 person fit into a video? This one has to be a record.
Excellent
thanks i appreciate it :)
murray cod seems to be pretty big too
The third fish at my place MY is Baung Ekor Merah.. really can reach over 10 kg.
I love your intro homie
That's a nice whoosh sound effect ya got there
No sturgeon? The Beluga might not count, as they spend most of their time in the ocean, but the white sturgeon is still massive, up to 6m, and nearly 450kg.
Tapah (Wallago leerii), fish from catfish family. Their habitat in southeast asia.
5th, great video btw
Thanks i appreciate it :)
Can you do an indian biotope part 2 and will you try to keep snakeheads again in the future?
Have you talked about the goonch?
Edit:i just got to the part of the video where you do talk about the goonch
yeah i think i will do sometime soon and i do plan to but i don't have the right setup right now
Fact: Thais call ghast from minecraft and giant siamese crap the same name: Pla ka hoh.
Maybe you can Add Orcaella brevirostris for next video
A fish I was hoping you were going to put in both this and the first video was the Muskellunge,or some sort of pike
I believe there is at least one species of river shark that might make a list. And I don’t mean the bull shark.
The Short-tailed river stingray
Not sure if It's the largest but it can get 5 feet( 1.5m) and up to 490lbs(222kg).
Im from Brazil and believe me, there is no case registered of humans being eaten by piraíbas, not even a child. But good video ✌🏻
I have to say, I've fished for sharks from piers and the beach as well as large catfish in North America but the most terrifying river monster is not on this list.

That stingray in Argentina???
in terms of length theres the electric eel or similar longer fish
Biggest fish I caught was a 7ft 284lbs alligator gar in Louisiana it was a monster for sure but I’ve heard of them getting a lot bigger
Piraiba catfish- (gravely deep voice) hey you, hey you,.. come here boy! I'm hungry. Make me a sandwich.
I said boy, I'm hungry!
Me- just take the children but spare me
What about the Siberian Taimen not as big as the rest of the on the list but still pretty big.
Try the murry cod 😊
Around Southeast Asia here we eat everything. I don’t know why
hahaha that made me chuckle
Snakeheads, climbing perches, catfish, barbs, gouramis, wild bettas? My mom serves them up for guests
One reason is that they are very cheap sources of good protein and often with little effort, you can gather a lot of them.
We used to do the same here too in south India. But don't know why we stopped??
Put the beluga sturgeon in part three, please!
I am It should be out next week even though I wouldn't really class it as a freshwater fish
Please make a video on freshwater gobies
The Chinese paddlefish could reach lengths of over 20 feet, could’ve mentioned that in the video
I have 3 of oh wait now 4 of your 5 fish you don’t want to swim with, I just got a baby gator gar today. I have 1 of these 5 too! 😉
What about the Goliath tiger fish, it's also a giant
What about sturgeons they’re pretty big
i wasn't going include them because they venture out to sea but I've included other brackish fish now so i think I'll include them in the next one :)
@@TsukiCove The Lake sturgeon is a strictly freshwater species, and recently one of nearly 250 lbs and almost 8 feet long was caught in Michigan!
can you include sturgeon on next video but not any sturgeon the Beluga sturgeon largest freshwater fish 24 feet.
There is a freshwater sturgeon in Georgian Bay Ontario Canada that is totally freshwater.
If this is going to be a series, you should include the goliath tiger fish in the next video.
What's the white fish that he has in the beginning of his videos?
Have you heard of the crocodile pike head Guarami
How are all your fish and your Axolotl doing in their new homes?
Pet Arnie for me
will do :)
are there any fish species bigger than 23 feet long
Hey what about the freshwater sturgeon?
ehhhhhhhhhh think the paddle fish was recorded at lengths of 22ft .. the paddle is nearly halkf its body length thou..so depends if you included the "paddle"
How about the siberian sturgeon?
Actually stingray and meakong cat fish is in chaopraya river
Jou catfish from the Amazon is a river monster
So you make all these exceptions for these other fish, but don't include the Lake Sturgeon, found in the Great Lakes region of the United States. 100% freshwater fish, that reach over 7 feet in length.
A goldfish chucked into a river. 😂
Easy way to save Asian giant carp, bring to the Mississippi River. Also most other US river.
you did not mention the GOOCH, FOUND IN RIVERS IN NEPAL. AND HAS BEEN FOUND IN THE GANGES
Same there is no 3m flattie (shovelnose)
Chinese paddlefish looks like a goblin shark
