I agree, the turtles could be done better. I know they can handle much harsher conditions than fish, but I feel like it could be done better. That being said from an outsider looking in I probably don’t have the full picture of how that part of the market operates etc.
@@AquariumCoop Ya true...we don't know the entire picture on the SEA TURTLES stacked in a box at 4:22 in the vid. Maybe we just don't know that its actually ok for them. Come on homie, diplomacy can only go so far. -_-
@@AquariumCoop I live there for months at a time every year, no American understands Asia or China specifically, part is crazy rich and part is crazy poor. Try $500 to $600 a sqft for a condo at the low end.
Lucky to have a good Big Al's here, but I'd love to see something like this pop up once or twice a year in our town. We have several pavilions at our fair grounds that would be perfect.
I drive all the way down to Miami, there’s a place called Neighborhood Fish Farm and tho is not China quality or variety they have a better selection and quality than any chain pet store
I’m in an independent living no car moved here from Illinois almost a year ago and sold my car. Too hard to ship. I live 20 minutes from the wet spot but can’t get there so have to order everything online and my family doesn’t like fish they want me to enjoy this place and my senior years not hurt my back ! I’ve got 3 10 gal tanks and the last one put in my walk-in closet because I was breeding we aren’t seeing so won’t take me to anymore They don’t understand if you have fish you going to breed them 😂just a rant
Looks like an amazing place. But I can't help but feel bad for those fish and turtles being jammed into small containers sitting on the floor for long hours especially the bigger fish in tiny aquariums.
So many props to get your creative juices flowing. I'd be like a kid in a candy store i wouldnt know where to look first. Sensory overload. Thanks , man showing us places an thing we'd never be able to experience.

Love the China videos. Put all of it up, even the 'bad' cuts please! It is interesting the scale of the place. I can't see how all those shops stay going so close together, but i guess it works with billions of people.
I love it. When seeing video's like this one I feel we are so far behind in America. Like the tank under with the water fall like that is cool looking and be nice to have.
I felt like i wanted to spend easy an hr sifting threw those rocks & get them then send them home you know. Also by a few rolls of filter media sponge. Never seen a roll of that here in Aus, so much bland stuff here well that ive seen. A trip there then send it home sounds like a winner. If that's even possible im not sure. Great vid Cory loved it p.s. poor turtles & those frogs to.
That's so amazing! Of all the places you have traveled for the hobby, what was your fav? This looks hard to beet. Also, are you able to buy fish and have them shipped safely back home?
The fish, the turtles...man the stingray looked so healthy. The mountain of annubias, just wow. We don't have anything even close to the magnitude of this in the U.S. 👍💕👍
Not enough people were watching to make the time investment worth it. Corvus had a baby and works pet time for the co-op and he still does live streams on his channel 2 times a week
Awesome, love Huadiwan fish market in Guangzhou. I know all of these shops you're visiting and could spend all day there. I live in Shanghai, when you guys come out for CIPS in November I would love to show you around, I'm a regular at a few different markets that are pretty cool and definitely worth a visit
Yes, I'll be at CIPS. Might not be there day one but should be there the other days. We can connect through email or wechat (Chinese Facebook) if you have it, very useful btw for while in China and connecting with people. Happy to help you guys with any questions or anything you need in preparing for Shanghai as well.
Cory, I have had a tanks fro over a year now and in the beginning I did water changes almost everyday, because I thought it was necessary, I had plants and algae growing but I got lazy and decided I would experiment on what would happen if I didn’t, I haven’t had any fish die, ( unless my clawed frog ate them, could you do a video on that). Still now my water is clear and fish are healthy, ( it’s been over a year since my last water change), is it getting those benefits from water changes when I refill the tank
Insane aamount of fish 😍👌 tnx for being there cory so awsome i can t get enough of it to watch i guess im as speachless as u enjoying ewery minit of video !!
Cory you need to do a 10 min video on bacteria blooms, I don’t think I seen one on your channel. I got a 125 gal brand new setup and I’ve had a bacteria bloom for over two weeks. The bacteria aren’t starving and my water has no fish
Those turtles and the amounts - that is just ridiculous, if you think also that in some countries you can get only 2-3 species and you have to look for them thoroughly..
Hi Cory, absolutely love your videos, even more so the travel ones! Would be awesome if you could perhaps do a top 5 or top 10 places to visit in the world if you love the hobby? I'm not talking about institutional aquariums that you pay an entrance fee to, then visit, although I love those too, but everybody knows about them too. I'm talking about the crazy markets or shows or meet-ups like the ones in this video. Love you work! Keep on tanking!
Crazy........ beautiful......but one consideration: I'm wondering on how many lives (fish,turtle.etc) will not survive the day in these crowded mini tanks.....Am I wrong?
The poor turtles were going full World War Z trying to get out. It’s amazing how far the US seems be lagging behind the rest of the world when it comes to fish keeping, another cool video!
Female Raditz To blanch a vegetable, first boil water. While the water is boiling, put your veggies in. Let them boil for a minute or too. While boiling, vegetables should look more vibrant in color than before. After a minute or two, drain the water and let cool to room temperature. Then feed to your aquarium. Remove any left overs within 24 do reduce fouling the water. I wouldn’t recommend using a microwave although it’s less of a hassle. When using a microwave, the microwave is not only heating the water but it is also cooking the vegetables. We don’t want to cook them, we want to blanch them. Blanching breaks down the starches inside the vegetable without cooking (damaging) the cells of the vegetable. It makes them easier to eat and digest. By using a microwave, you are damaging the cells of the vegetable and those damaged cells don’t hold as much (if any) nutrition. Do the fish care? Honestly, I don’t think so. However, as pet owners, I believe that we should do the best we can and to me that means taking the time to blanch a veggie instead of cooking it in a microwave if that’s what you’re going for. I mean, wouldn’t you rather have a nice slow cooked pork roast instead of one cooked in a microwave? I’ve seen a lot of people use canned veggies with success but what would worry me about that is the preservatives in canned vegetables being fed to fish over a long period of time. I guess it wouldn’t be any different than preservatives in pre-packaged fish food. That may be an interesting topic. Anyways, that’s how you blanch a vegetable. 🐡
samb0slice how do you cool the vegetables do I just stick it in the refrigerator for a certain period of time or something if so how long if not then how?
Female Raditz Blanched veggies only take 5-10 minutes to cool to room temperature once drained but you totally could put them in the fridge to cool. Once blanched, that process is over and you can store the veggies in the fridge for future use. I wouldn’t do more than about a weeks worth at a time just to prevent them from getting too old. Always try to preserve freshness when at all possible. You’ll be able to tell if they are too hot by touching them. Slightly warm is ok, we’re just making sure they aren’t steaming hot.

Aquarium Co-Op turtles made me sad, hope at least they pulling out the dead every night! SE Asians so messed up!
I'm not sure if there are that many turtles in the wild.
I'm glad you found the lost footage.

I would go broke if someone let me loose here! lol 😂
Those turtles were so cool to see. America would never have that where I live atleast
WOW!!! These China videos never cease to amaze me!
An awesome experience for sure
Really cool video,fish culture is so rich there
Hi cory wow awesome video that’s a lot of stuff out there it’s crazy .
WOW! Awesome video of so many varieties of fish to choose from! I can't believe how they keep so many turtles all stacked next to each other!
Those turtles... 😢
Be sure to get us some cool fish from there lol very cool
Incredible lost footage! Thank you for sharing it.
It would be worth going just to check out these markets are incredible thank you so much for sharing them with us
China is simply amazing. So much of everything. Thanks
Did anyone else get a taxi Bell ad with this video? 😂 I have never had that before and it is great
Respect to the Chinese fish keepers in this market place most certainly is paradise

You'd have to import them was is quite a bit of work. Not impossible though.
That is very cool...
