11
one what's up vfp nation welcome back to another awesome video guys today we're going back to
12
that new fish store i recently found that is filled with rare fish that's the place we bought the
13
fish with the giant teeth.
14
Now that was the first time I've ever been there and I was blown away at the selection of fish they had.
15
I was seeing fish I've never seen before, really rare stuff, expensive fish, and we're going back today, okay?
16
He said that he's got a new shipment in yesterday, so there's going to be a lot of new fish there.
17
I can't wait to see what else he's got, but this time we're going there to buy a big fish, okay?
18
A fish to add to my predatory fish pond.
19
Now this right here, guys, is my 7 ,200 gallon monster fish pond filled with insane exotic fish.
20
You got
21
arowana's red tail catfish and yeah this is where we put all of our big boys now
22
when i was at the fish store i noticed they had
23
a giant arowana now i love arowana's however it's actually my
24
girlfriend's favorite fish she loves them to death we got four
25
of them in here they're growing really big you can see
26
one cruising right by there you can see they're getting really
27
big in here we got a couple little guys growing out in the other ponds
28
but i saw that arowana in the fish store
29
and i've never seen one that big for sale so
30
when the owner of the store dewey told me that it was
31
it we said a like goal though i said 50 000 likes
32
and i'd buy it i know it's a lot
33
but you guys actually killed that video
34
and it actually got like 20 000 likes
35
and i think that's good enough so what we're gonna do we're gonna go there
36
and we're gonna buy this massive arowana i don't even know how it's gonna happen
37
because it's a monster fish not sure how we're even gonna
38
transport it it's gonna be insane we're gonna go there
39
and we're gonna buy it
40
and we're gonna surprise my girlfriend with it i'm gonna pick her up after i get it
41
and we're gonna come here
42
and i'm gonna show her what i got she's gonna flip
43
out i mean this air one is like double the size of the ones
44
big i mean they're getting up there so
45
that is the plan like i said he did get a new shipment of fish yesterday
46
so we're gonna get to see all those new fish see
47
what else he got maybe we'll walk out of there with
48
something else you always know how it goes last time we
49
went there for vampire fish one of them we bought three of them
50
and a red tail catfish i just can't help myself
51
so i'm really excited to go there however we got stuff
52
to do around here all right we got to feed the predators to make sure
53
when we put the airwana in there they don't eat them
54
because even though that airwana is massive my red tails are definitely big enough to swallow it whole
55
so we got a bucket full new friend.
56
These are arowana stood.
57
Oh Jesus.
58
I don't think I got that on camera, but like three of the arowana just attacked me.
59
Oh my God.
60
Just take it scary fish look at the arowanas here comes
61
the red tails come on guys who's hungry oh oh mini blaze
62
oh jesus we're in the splash zone right now there's ian oh look at
63
that big mouth dude see he could definitely take
64
that arowana now i'm telling you guys right now these red tails are getting
65
so big ever since i put them in this new giant pond i've been feeding them like crazy
66
and they've been putting on some size oh there's the ripsaw
67
down there the giant one all right we just fed all the big fish hopefully they're full now
68
and they don't go after this new arowana we add in here And in the front pond, we actually do have a little baby arowana growing out.
69
We're going to feed him right now.
70
Now, we actually caught him out of that pond that someone dumped him in not too long ago.
71
We're going to throw a piece of food, see if he eats.
72
Oh, he just got it.
73
He grabbed it right there.
74
That's the arowana.
75
Look at him go.
76
Look at all these fish in here.
77
Oh, they're going crazy.
78
Hey, there's Bruce.
79
He came to say hi.
80
You guys haven't seen Bruce in a while.
81
He usually just sleeps all day, but there he is.
82
He's doing good.
83
Now, guys, I do have some really sad news that I have to tell you.
84
As you guys know, in my fish tank inside, we got the two tigrinus, the gunge catfish, Now last night I was feeding everyone.
85
I actually got the vampire fish trained to eat.
86
I was feeding everyone.
87
Everyone was eating and then the Tigrinus got some spooked from the vampire fish eating.
88
They took a bite out of something.
89
The tigrinus went crazy. And
90
if you guys know anything about these fish is the most
91
common way for them to die is them giving themselves a concussion because they're really fast, really quick fish.
92
When they get spooked, they just dart off and then they smack themselves in the head into the glass.
93
That's happened to me before with these types of fish.
94
And sadly, that happened last night.
95
I'm going to show you a video.
96
I mean, the fish was perfectly healthy.
97
It was fat.
98
It was eating hand fed,
99
devastated I love these fish but it really sucks guys as you can see there's only one Tigranus in here
100
That's the one up in the corner.
101
But yeah, guys, we're going to go ahead and feed the fish right now and show you guys the vampire fish eating.
102
All right, we got some tilapia we're going to drop in here and see everyone go after it.
103
Oh, here comes the goons.
104
Here comes the goons.
105
He smells the food.
106
Come on, buddy.
107
Come on, figure it out.
108
Just swim out of the tunnel, buddy.
109
There you go.
110
All right.
111
Oh my gosh.
112
Oh, he just took a mouthful right there.
113
So, hey guys, some really sad news there about the Tigrinus catfish.
114
It really sucks, but we got to move on.
115
We got to cool in the back right now.
116
We're going to head to the fish store, do a little tour, show off all the new fish he got in yesterday from his shipment, buy the arowana and probably more fish,
117
and then pick up my girlfriend on the way back home and then surprise her with it.
118
It's going to be awesome, guys.
119
I can't wait.
120
So let's head over there now and get these fish.

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
