I am now 70 years old almost 71. My brother and I had for fish tanks full of fish and had a neighbor friend our age who also had quite a few fish tanks and another kid in the neighborhood we weren't friends with but also raised fish to sell. My brother and I and his friend John we just had fun with our fish the other neighbor boy sold some fish two friends but I don't remember too much about him. I had fish tank setup in my classroom through the years I don't have any fish at the moment. The reason I started to write this comment was because I wish I was 10 years old again at this time in the world where there's all this knowledge that can be gained from KZitem. My brother and I tried to read every fish book or magazine the Pittsburgh library could bring us to the bookmobile. There weren't any other places to learn about tropical fish. This is amazing and thank you so much for filming this video and posting it on KZitem I appreciate it and enjoyed watching it this evening thank you so much

I was born & raised in South FL in the 60's & 70's and had a fish farm very close by. They had their tropical fish in ponds and during the rainy season or a storm they would flood and release fish. The canals in the area were full of swordtails, mollies, goldfish, etc.!!! During big storms when the roads flooded, I'd take a net and catch fish out of the streets.... had a beautiful aquarium and didn't pay for a single fish.... caught them all out of the canals or street!!!

A few years ago I unknowingly contacted FEFS and was inquiring about visiting and purchasing fish as a beginner. Rick got me in contact with the owner of the closest fish store they supply to and they both worked out a list for me. On his next shipment of fish to the store I had my own shipment separate with special reduced pricing. Such a great guy, he and his wife and such amazing fish. They are so passionate as well. I have two 75 gallon tanks all Tanganyikan and all from Florida Exotic they are going strong and very very healthy. lots of babies since then too. lots of fun great hobby. Thanks FEFS oh the fish love the food as well.

This makes me so jealous. I would love to work there, after a career in law enforcement I would gladly swap. What on earth is the water bill?

But I used to have 3 aquariums in my room. I don't remember having many blue fish, but I did have a blue Opaline Gourami.

Very nice video and Breeding farm. A dream to an old man like me. Even on vacation around the USA I traveled with half gallon or a gallon with a few fish in them. and when I stayed at a cabin or motel for a week or more I would sent up a 2-3 gallon. I felt like I need fish around me. However after living in the Philippines and saw the way salt water fish were treated and how many were lost I have been on salt water fish strike for about 40 years now. If I was not so old I would think about getting some breed in Florida. Visiting breed farms is so exciting. To each his own.

I remember being fascinated by that.

I used to dig graves, and there are situations where you need to move a casket to a different grave site or plot! And when you pull just the casket, it gets quite brittle underground quickly, the concrete buckets are called vaults and the prevent chemicals and gross stuff from the body and casket going into the ground water (good for the environment) and keeps the casket intact for hundreds or years.
