Giant lungfish and huge shoal of rainbowfish / Lungenfisch & Regenbogenfisch @ Kölner Zoo [32/52]

[xThaVietx]

How are lungfish and rainbows able to co-exist? aren't lungfish carnivorous?

[Tinnesen89]

ones i had a african lungfish about that size in my tank, tank is a 540l....but i could only have him and nothing else in there, exept small neons n such....it ate everything and made a huge mess with the gravel....werry cool fish but i had to give it away

[Mysticsloth]

Fun Fact: The Lungfish is called Lungfish because humans use it for lung transplantation.

[papahoge]

lungfish is not a beautiful fish i love arapaima gigas

[EDAM2]

Really remind me of manatees :S

[phi9x]

will the lungfish eat the rainbow ? ...

[teddybear1829]

im sorry but i really hate these's things ..i once thought they was awesome but one day i saw a huge one with blue eyes crawl out the water and ete a mouse...

[sinner808]

do you think it can be kept with an arapaima?

[BarnseyBarnes1]

were is it

[fahrigonzo]

those australian lungfishes are HUGE!!!!!! one can cost easily $3000 in 30cm size!! calculate it if its that BIG!!! WOW!!!

[eurasianchica]

[drunkdivamariahcarey]

@drunkdivamariahcarey

Should be the motto for everyone: "Do everything you can to safe nature for the next generation."

[drunkdivamariahcarey]

what a historical... SPECTACULAR!

[n03lzz]

@drunkdivamariahcarey

Yes, true! Thanks for your comment!

[alexander76675]

cool can you have a lungfish in your tank

[n03lzz]

@alexander76675

I've seen a african lungfish in a fish tank of a pet store... but i don't think you can keep such giants in an ordinary tank.

[drunkdivamariahcarey]

lungfish is arowana in the mud

[n03lzz]

@drunkdivamariahcarey

If you wanna call them that way.^^

[UmakeMeSYK]

DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAAAAMN nice fish tank LOL beautiful huge fish i bet you talk to them every day HAHAHHAHA anyways DAAAAAAMN loool that would have been expensive and when u hear big splashes at night would be hilarious

[n03lzz]

@UmakeMeSYK

LOL!^^

But unfortunally this is none of my personal tanks. it's the tank of a zoo.

[Dustinsfishtanks]

that's a crazy combination. I guess they are faster...

[n03lzz]

@Dustinsfishtanks

I think they don't have a problem with eachother because those lungfish feed from Mollusks, Crustaceans, Mussels and Snails.

[Dustinsfishtanks]

@n03lzz Ahh shows what I know about those monsters... pretty wild fish. Where in Germany are you? I lived in Leipzig and Berlin for a while... I love some of the fish you guys crank out!

[n03lzz]

@Dustinsfishtanks

I live in a town near Düsseldorf in the west of Germany.

[RowanTolley02]

bloody big fish

[n03lzz]

@RowanTolley02

oh yeah...

[Kristrat]

it looks overcrowded

[n03lzz]

@Kristrat

Well, it's very very big tank. Still much room to swim.

[medicine2]

Looks more like a 600g tank to me

[n03lzz]

@medicine2:

If i should guess i'd say 1100+ us gallon... But i don't know its exact size. At least the front glass panel is 1,4 meter (4.6 feet) high.

[pgcrswll]

Kewl tank I wouldnt personally mix bosemani rainbows and lungs but its a cool effect I suppose.....

[n03lzz]

@pgcrswll:

But some rainbows live in the habitats of the lungs in Queensland, aren't they? Maybe not the bosemani...

[idunnosia]

hahah they look like armourdillos

wait....fucking gross dude!

[n03lzz]

Lol, yes kinda...^^

[commonSagitario]

are they hungry

[n03lzz]

I don't ask them ;)

[1992pattrow]

your lucky to have a tank that size. i am getting a 125gallon and I am putting my Alligator Gar, 2 Oscars, and fire Eel in it.

[n03lzz]

I would be the luckiest guy on earth, i think.^^ But it's not my tank it's of a Zoo Aquarium near my hometown.

[1992pattrow]

oh, but it is still an amazing video.

[qwerty2930]

haha, everyone who comments on your videos thinks its your tank.

[n03lzz]

Yeah, right. That's why i wirte "@ a Zoo Aquarium [1/1]" into the heading.

I think it doesn't help. :S

[guthaninfested]

the alligator gar will eat it

[fishysocks2021]

sorry but a 125 is waaaay too small for a gar

[1992pattrow]

I had to get rid of the 125. It was old and cracked so I have my fish in a 30 gallon momentarily. The Gar is only about 6-8 inches at the moment so it is fine and I am getting a 75gallon soon. I will have to sell or get rid of my Alligator Gar somehow. My local fish store does take large fish though.

[QuanVo]

what make you think it is a 125 gallon tank?

[blownable]

Gargantuan,Massive,Humungus, the works....:) Not that I'm trying 2 teach you or anything.

[n03lzz]

ok..^^

[blownable]

no offence man but 'huge' is an understatement :)

[n03lzz]

Yeah, maybe... what do you think is the right word?^^

[RaubfischWiki]

Du kommst mir immer zu vor *g* Ich wollte auch mal wieder in den Duisburger Zoo, ists doch? Ich bin nur ein wenig verwirrt, noch vor nicht all zu langer Zeit schwamm da nur ein Neroceratodus rum :D

Ich glaub die werden der erste Zoo mit Überbesatz *g*

[n03lzz]

Hi,

Ich hab zuerst gelesen ich käme dir immer "ZU" vor. Darauf wollte ich antworten ich nehme keine Drogen.^^ ... kleines Missverständnis =)

Dieses Video ist aus dem Kölner Zoo.

Aber da der Duisburger Zoo direkt neben meiner Uni zu finden ist, wirst du sehr bald auch Videos aus Duisburg in meinem Youtube-Channel finden . Ich hab im TV gesehen, dass das Becken im neuen aber "ehemaligen" Flussdelfin-Haus dort jetzt mit vielen Großfischen aus dem Amazones ausgestattet wurde. Das muss ich sehen.

[pondguru]

This Zoo Aquarium is an amazing place. If I go to Germany, I'll definately check it out.

[n03lzz]

If you come to my region, i can give you several cool adresses. =D

[coajokazz]

dass die so lange ueberlebt haben... man sieht denen richtig an, wie alt ihre art ist... ich mein die flossen und wie die schwimmen und so.. echt cool

[n03lzz]

Die Ähnlichkeiten z.B. zu Riesensalamandern sind auf jeden Fall erkennbar.

[MistaBreed]

Lungenfische sind ja mal derbe interessante Gesellen...

Die nächsten Verwandten sind also Quastenflosser und die Jungs (ausser der Australische) können sich bis zu 4 (vier) Jahre in ihrem eigenen Schleim eingraben und so bei Trockenheit vor dem vertrocknen schützen, unfassbar...

Geiles Video...

Gruss

[n03lzz]

Hi,

dank dir.

Ja, diese urigen Fische gehören echt zu den Vorfahren aller Landlebewesen.

Gruß

Nils
