A Neptune grouper gets a custom home with The Fish Guys
The South Florida crew's only new upload builds an aquarium around a trench, a giant cave and an unusual deep-sea resident.
Why this story? The channel's weekly summary: what went up this week, what is drawing views now, and where the channel stands among similar channels.
I Bought The World's Deepest Sea Monster...
The Fish Guys' latest aquarium project starts with a rather demanding houseguest. In "I Bought The World's Deepest Sea Monster...", the crew introduces a Neptune grouper they say cost $20,000, then sets about creating a custom home for it.
The description places the fish's natural habitat nearly a thousand feet below the surface. That makes the underwater trench, giant cave and cleanup crew more than decorative flourishes: the upload is built around the challenge of keeping a deep-sea predator. The video includes a sponsored segment.
Their sole new upload of the week has drawn roughly 857,000 views and has the strongest daily momentum among the channel's active videos. Viewers are busy suggesting names, including Neptune and Trident, while others focus on the sand coverage and glass rocks in the aquarium. One proposes making the surrounding room dark, with only the tank glowing.
Across the channel, daily views are now nearly three times their usual level, although subscribers stayed unchanged over the week, just short of three million. Among nearby animal channels, The Fish Guys had a similar weekly viewing gain to Mousetales; Forrest Galante had a much larger week.
The earlier location-hunting adventure hasn't disappeared into the depths, either. "I Found Fish In The Scariest Locations…", with its abandoned marine stadium, swamp and offshore shipwreck itinerary, remains the next-busiest daily draw. Behind it is the year's sea-monster compilation, gathering dragon moray eels, sharks and fish-trap expeditions into one long catch-up.

@CruePlayzBloxSee it on YouTubeIf you guys gonna build a tank for deep sea creatures, then you should build a dark room, like make it pitch black inside and the only thing glowing is the tank, oh yeah use curtains for the door to enter the dark room
