    Never a 'big fish' person- Lake Victorians about the largest I ever had, but I have a TON of respect for Rusty W. Met the gentleman once a long time ago. Great guy. And WHAT AN AMAZING fish house! Great job with the filming as well.

    So many beautiful fish. The thorichthys he has look stunning. And after hearing him talk at the last aquatic experience, he was the inspiration for me to incorporate geothermal when I build my fish room.
