    So to make is clear from when we packed at Alvin’s house, until the next day when I repacked the fish was still alive and it was already 3-4 pm. Which means he would have arrived alive in NY because the flight was supposed to land at 11 am 🤦🏻‍♂️… Rest In Peace big guy, see you in fish heaven 💔

      Well they honestly didn't know how that fish was, maybe it's age had a ton of play in it. I bet the stress, of chilling out in dark tub, then packed, and repacked was enough to give it a heart attack. I legit think age, stress is what did it.

    Love the videos Rod. Great job by all on the Predatory Fins team. Sorry about the bass. I would like to thank you and your channel for inspiration to get back into the hobby. I was right into aquariums in my teens and 20's. October of last year i became sick with (necrotizing fasciitis) also known as "flesh eating disease ". Your videos really helped me while I was at home recovering and inspired me to get some aquariums and fish. I now have a 180g, and 2 x 90g aquariums. I've have watched all of the videos you've made and will continue to watch the new ones. I'll keep checking your website for Red severums. Having a hard time finding them in Canada. Love you, Lisa, Kevin, Ryan, Tank and the team. God bless.

    @johnraymond2926 2 роки тому +1

    Sorry to see this, Rod. But that fish was dead before you got to pack it. As soon as you raised the lid on that tote, it was too late.
    Those totes from Home Depot are deadly to anything aquatic. I tested the same one for curing large pieces of driftwood. Cleaned it out, filled it, treated the water,, and added 6 goldfish which were dead in 1 hour. Cleaned it out, repeated the test, and looked in on fish in 10 mins. Fish were barely breathing and sitting still. Put them in fresh water but were dead in a few hours.
    Any plastic containers have to be food safe rated or they have chemicals that are deadly mixed in to prevent mold and bacteria. Don't know how long he had it there, but by using that filter probably kept it from dying right away. But the buildup in the bloodstream was just a matter of time.
    I've shipped them that size and 2 days is no problem. That the water was clear and the fish ridged with closed gills means it just shut down and died.
    If you see something like that again, just turn and walk away. There is nothing you can do. And anyone needing to separate a fish in a tote, get a Sterilite container. Very cheap and I use them all the time, especially for holding large lungfish, and have never had a problem.

    I'm so sorry. His owner, and you, did your best for him before he arrived at the airport, and it sucks that something happened out of your control (I know they can overbook planes, maybe they can also do that with the baggage), and he missed the flight.
    Regardless why he didn't get on the first plane, it's sad that it wasn't enough that all those other helpful people did their best to try and get him to you.

JFK ALWAYS has a spare fedex plane at the HUB for reasons like a breakdown. It might be worth it. If you have any questions about using FEDEX EXPRESS send me a message and I’ll answer any questions.
