I helped them with converting Ohio Fish Rescue's 58,000 gallon pool into a pond for monster fish. It was so cool to work with such a professional team and watch them convert a pool into a pond that looks nothing like a pool anymore! How fast they work is another mind blowing thing about them. This project wow complete in less than 48 hours 😮 This video is Part 1 of a 3 Part series. So come join me as I show you this amazing process at the Ohio Fish Rescue.

How do you manage to keep sturgeon so successfully in warm water?

Matt’s Monster Fish - 5 years ago

Yeah he's been in there for over a year and is my most active fish and one of the biggest eaters. I hear different opinions about it but through my experience there's been 0 issues.

Greg is one lucky guy being able to swim in there with all them fish

Ace - 5 years ago

You keep a pirarucu And if gets big you donate it? Damn you should be thinking. In the 1st place dont buy a fish that you can't provide a proper home.

agus2001 - 5 years ago

Quick question. I see a lot of sand mixed with the gravel. Does that affect the filter performance in any way? Or is it ideal to have the gravel sand-free?

agus2001 - 5 years ago

+Matt’s Monster Fish I can't wait to see the end result. I only wish they had a way of seeing the pond from the side.

Matt’s Monster Fish - 5 years ago

With Rich's filter sand would eventually clog up, but in our aquariums they'll be fine. I misread the question, sorry.

agus2001 - 5 years ago

Damn it you big ahole. Now I'm jealous of your work. I can't wait until I get the keys for the apartment I purchased. Ready to build a 1000 gallon aquarium.

agus2001 - 5 years ago

+Matt’s Monster Fish soon chief. Soon. Waiting for city hall to release those deeds (paid for it in full). Once that happens, keys in hand, I'll start building. Forget an entertainment center. I want fish.

Matt’s Monster Fish - 5 years ago

Haha yeah man get that 1000 going, join the club!

Crazy Creek Fisherman - 5 years ago

I've been watching the pool/pond conversion on a few other channels. This was the best to watch. Quick * to the point!
Thank you!

Justin R Varga - 5 years ago

You have an ariapima? You lucky bastard. Beautiful set up. Did you get your bass when they were juveniles??
I’ve had trouble with mine handling water changes.

Matt’s Monster Fish - 5 years ago

Small water changes, what all do you add to your water before putting it into the aquarium?

Justin R Varga - 5 years ago

I’m the only one with this bad luck. I will work it out. My high kh bothers them. Trying to make my water changes as Suttle as possible.

Matt’s Monster Fish - 5 years ago

Not these bass, I've had these for a few months. Now I do have some juveniles in another tank. I haven't had any issues with water changes though.
