My FIRST TIME unboxing a fish!!! How exciting xD
The fish I got is a Flower Horn cichlid. I used to keep Flower Horns back in the days, but stopped for a bit. Now I’ve decided to get another, but a higher-end type, and have it rule the tank in the Exotics’ Lair. The tank that this fish is kept in was Zeus’ (my Leopard Gecko) previous enclosure. Now Zeus is in a longer enclosure, which will be better for him.
“Why did I unbox a fish, rather than buying one from the pet store”, you may ask?
Pet stores here sell normal-common types and hike up prices really high. This particular one is from a reputable breeder/reseller that offers “quality” specimens that are not usually found in pet stores. Plus, it’s always better to support breeders instead of many pet store chains, considering a lot of them don’t properly care for their animals.

Decorations/substrate will do more harm to a Flowerhorn than good.
They are also a predatory fish, so if I get him a "friend", he'll eat his friend :D
YES SIR!
Oh i mean ohh no...
Exotics Lair A shame you have to say so, people really don’t do their research. Keep doing what you’re doing
Oh nooo,..,..,oli
Exotics Lair I wish you could upload more often because your videos are great and I enjoy watching them
Tape is for fish not to feel tired nor dizzy, it makes them just think it's night so the fish doesn't stress too much
Not*
@@FancyNancyFr what are you correcting him on? it looks fine to me.
Well thats bot really true but its close enough
@@bl00dlikewayne he's correcting the nor because he thinks it's not a word
@@FancyNancyFr Do you ever go to school? He has the right grammar, yours wasn't
And,, this is the first time I've *heard* of somebody unboxing a fish.
Well, good job, you heard it for the 1st time.
Its called a flowerhorn!!!! (I'm a fish nerd)
U mean unbagging mAh boi
@Nicky Dotson the only fish I've ever owned was a common goldfish it hardly even lasted a week cuz I forgot to tighten the fish flakes and the lid fell off and all the food dropped in the bowl so rip little fish...... this is when I was five or maybe six years old
@Nicky Dotsoncool nice 😄^_^

Lol that made me laugh😂😂😂😂😂 i literally thought of how it can breath for a sec😂😂
they blow oxygen bofere packaging
Katlyn stay actually, no they do have gills.
@@kat._.1573 you make no sense lmao
FallenAngels X fish still need oxygen, they don't breathe water they take in the oxygen that's dissolved in the water.
Fish : *Molt's*
Exotic: How did you learn that?!
Fish : *Mouth opening intensifie's*
PlatformerShane lol 😂
What's molt?
Can ya'll explain please because i don't know what is that too 😂
Molt is like skin that’s too small so the animal gets out of it and it has new skin?
Ohh thanks
So I've been reading through the comments and as someone who owns 5 tanks and is very knowledgeable in various areas involving fish keeping, these comments have me quaking. Flower horns at full size have been commonly known to hurt themselves on pretty much anything put in their tank. While its true that any fish can get hurt on anything you ever put in their tanks, flowerhorns are very prone to hurting themselves, and 90% of those who keep them, house them in empty tanks. No they do not get bored. No it does not hurt the fish. Keeping the tank empty prevents the fish from getting hurt, and will keep the fish nice and healthy provided it is properly cared for. Most people in the hobby whom keep goldfish almost always have them in bare tanks, very few with sand at the bottom, because their fins are extremely delicate. So, there are only very few fish in the hobby that require special circumstances, but the flowerhorn is one of them. Please do in depth research on any fish before bashing someone else, or purchasing and handling fish. Flowerhorns are also a type of cichlid. I saw someone making a comment on the pH. Cichlids prefer harder water, with pH ranging usually around 7.5 and up.
So if they're so fragile, how do they survive in the wild?? Not arguing, just curious. If nothing else, it might be nice for the fish to have some scenery taped to the back of the tank.
@@winterprism9227 Flowerhorns are a man-made cross breed and do not exist in the wild unless purposely put there, and I can't imagine it surviving long
@@kristinayagmin5893 ahh that makes sense. I still think it should have some kind of scenery on the outside of the tank
@@winterprism9227 I guess they can see people that walk by or people's pets around the place etc, hopefully they have something to just keep them ammused lol.
@@kristinayagmin5893 good education!! It's nice to see someone educating us all :)
It’s covered in black tape because being in the dark helps keep the fish calm through shipment
Im more amazed that your postal service can ship fish alive.
Ikr!
Yep. Shipping live animals really all comes down to their packaging tho.. how well the seller protects the animal is a big part of the shipping.
It’s easy to ship live animals but it’s important to ship life animals SAFELY !
:)❤️
wouldn't work where I live. our trucks get to be almost 200 degrees F. if I'm almost dead in the front with the windows down and fan blowing the hot air around, a fish will most definitely die in the back where it's hottest.
Our service would just lose the fish...
Where was it shipped from??

Super angry😂💦
lol 😂
Here, take my like!
Lol how is he going to water a fish? 😂
S u m i r/wooooosh
@@ivykun4178 wooooooosh
1:58 he pulled off a twisty lid..... that is hilariously impressive
His brain downgraded 19% XD
LOLL
The black bag is so that the fish doesn't stresses out while being shipped, because stressing too much could possibly kill them!!
Ok google
Fish: hey I barley have water in here!
* fish get dumped in a huge tank *
Fish: yay I'm back to my home!!!
* fish bumps into glass wall *
Fish:shoot
Fish be like we're the garbage go
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😅😅
Its better to have less water when yoy ship fish more oxygen then water is always better
probably explains why he/she got a bump on the head.
Btw it’s barely not barley just telling ya :)
Here for xena..

6:24 it’s confirmed u can see him in the reflection he’s not just a floating hand😂your welcome
Nah that’s his friend
The black around the plastic is so if the fish is known to get stressed out easily it keeps it dark so they don’t stress out and basically die 🤧so if you ever plan on shipping fish study to see if they get stressed easily please ! like so he can see this if you don’t mind it’s important ! Thank you and have a great day also love your channel your so inspiring !

guys today were unboxing a giraffe-
don’t be triggered i was joking i love him

anonymous army im your first comment in ur comment your welcome
also him: **slaps the package**
Nemo be like
Also fish: IM DYING!
Wilhelm Burgdorf well CONGRATS
For yall wondering.
Most flowerhorns reject items in tanks so they'll continue attacking pebbles plastic plants etc etc.
So they'll end up hurting their mouths greatly so its best to not place items in the tank.
As well as putting other pet fish with flower horns they'll kill them no lie
DIEGO Garcia Thank you! I was wondering why he had nothing :(
Ik
Not true at all, yeah you shouldnt add to much things in this tank but you can clearly see that this Fish searches for something to hide......i Pet cichlids for over 10 years
Ohhh that’s why thanks
The way he said plastic 😂 “plarstic” I love it
these videos spark joy
I think the closest we'll ever get to a face-reveal is you accidentally filming your own molt and forget to edit it out.
He’s done a half face reveal
Im pretty satisfied already ;)
He revealed his face in the UA-cam button vid
He's filmed his eyes before

I can't believe I've been watching you for almost 2 years, ♡.
The unboxing was super satisfying ☺😊👍✨ 100% satisfied
Being a person has kept fish, I was just praying for the fish when you were shaking the box 😰
9090fighter i commented the same! People started saying “uhh he only shook it a little” 👿
Same. Exotics really needs to invest in a tripod so he doesn't potentially harm the creatures he unboxes. He was shifting that package around a bit roughly with his one hand.
Im not sure that the mailman thought the same
Me too
“fishy! why. are. you. SLEEPINGGG?!?”😂
It's so funny how youtubers try to keep it mysterious what's inside something or what happens when it's already in the title 😂❤️ luv yu all

*Pours fish into tank full of coconut fiber and calls it an EnClOsUrE*
Yo it doesn't need a lot of enrichment. Try doing your own research on an animals needs before you criticize how it's cared for. Not every animal needs the a super fancy than with a dozen different decorations.
@@sweetpea7209 LMFAO the joke went way over your head.
That an r/wooosh there
@@sweetpea7209 BTW if you don't understand. I made a joke about how he might use coconut fiber and substrate instead of using pebbles and other aquarium decorations since he's used to making enclosures for terrestrial animals.
I don't get it
@@7emv he uses coconut fibre in all his spider enclosures. The guy always jokes about only using coconut fibres for new enclosures because the substrate he used before made too much of a mess
Guys if your wondering why he doesn’t have a decoration, is because while it’s preferred, these fish live in vast open spaces so it’s not necessary and they can actually harm themselves more from too many items
Edit: these fish are also VERY territorial so no company needed
Thank you :)
Flowerhorns are actually a fully artificial species, they don’t have a natural habitat. Poor things are prone to hurting themselves on literally anything so a bare tank is pretty standard unless you happen to get a particularly chill individual.
Aww fishes are so cute!
I truly respect people with 2 or pets. Truly.
Tiny fish and tiny dog! So cute!
Just random spider molts on the ground 🤷🏻♀️ normal human stuff

The amount of effort put into not showing his face 🤣
White Fox still waiting for a video when he shows his face ._.
The channel is already at 1,2M subs what is he waiting for?
@@CaroLine-fv1mu I think it's pretty clear that he doesn't want his face or name attached to this channel. And it's his right to do it that way if he wants. Not everyone wants to be famous and recognized.
@@CaroLine-fv1mu tbh some people will stalk youtubers. So its best he doesnt show his face if he doesnt want to.
He showed half his face before in the like 100000 subscriber plaque video I think it was
@Based God But that was only 30% of his face. We want mooooorrrrreeeee.
The fish is beautiful and so cute. I love the fish , but please do not move the fish so much next time. Because the fish can die because of the stress.😩
i’m pretty sure he knows what he’s doing lmao
@Potato! Watching Netflix at the Disco so what u gonna use to touch?
Saeran Choi I JUST GOT YOUR MESSAGES!!!!!!! Sorry had to T-T
@Potato! Watching Netflix at the Disco wow, i just made a comment and are already salty... k, the fish hearing is very different to the human one, but... I dont think touching the tank can do something do The fish hearing.
It can die from stress, but that was one of the best ways to do it

I legit have one of those things in my fish tank
Was that sent through the mail?? So sad for it. Must be terrifying for an animal being sent and thrown around like that.
Pet stores get them through the mail as well
How do you think pet stores get them??
They can also freeze to death if they are sent in cold weather or die of heat in thee summer

Grammar-Am i a joke to you?
7:07
Depending on where you go, "fishes" can be considered correct grammar.
Grammar is a joke itself
“Grammar- Am i a joke to you?”
"Fishes" can be used if there is more than one type of fish together : )
The black tape is there because it makes it less stressful for the fish, especially when acclimating to a new tank that has other fish in it.
Exotic layer: I usually get tarantulas, trap door spider, scorpions--
Me: soo... Arachnids?
Yes lots and lots of arachnids
Ok
Exotics lair, I would recommend pre-soaking the pellets (so they sink) before feeding them to your new fish. This will prevent the fish from taking in more air. If untreated this may affect the fishes swim bladder.
He should be fine, while that’s ideal it not doing it shouldn’t be the end of the world, especially since swim bladder is so easy to fix
Exotics: * buys a fish *
Also Exotics: can you hear the water? * shakes box to hear water *
Fish: *am I a joke to you?*
I love your vids keep up the good work
That fish is lucky its in a big tank, most fish have such small bowls or tanks which causes them to die quickly
Him: pointing and making hand gestures at the container
Me: OPEN THE GODDAMN THING ALREADY
Omg, i was saying the same thing. We can see its a fucking plastic container, get the fish into FRESH WATER, you IDIOT !

It’s a flowerhorn cichlid. They covered the bottom of the bag in black tape because the darkness helps to calm the fish. I’ve seen people ship larger fish (15-20 inches) in black garbage bags.
Oo good to know !
Honestly you're molts on the floor are better than my room. I have stuff everywhere besides where it belongs. I'm shocked I can even see the floor.
