    Really cool and interesting to see European fresh water species. I find there is a lack of video's regarding European species, especially in the format you do it in. Keep up the amazing work. And maybe try the rivers; delta's and estuaries of Belgium and or the low countries. Would love to actually see what lives in the delta nations.

    You are a natural at this Barny. Surprised you haven't been snapped up by the BBC. We need someone young and passionate to take the reigns of the OG master David Attenborough. Would you like to put your name in the hat?

    The Manchester Ship Canal would be interesting, from Manchester down to Liverpool, if it is clear enough there are fish in there.

    Seen many videos of the state of the water in the Thames. Heartened to see so much life.

    I grew up watching tropical reef documentaries, specifically by John Stoneman during the 90's, but there's a strange draw to fresh water diving footage for me.  Despite the lack of bold colours, there's this weird sense of it being both alien and familiar at the same time.  Being Canadian, I grew up around fresh water my whole life, but never had the opportunity to see what was below the surface very often.  So these videos hit a sweet spot for me.  Thanks for the awesome work.

    Really interesting to see what kind of aquatic life can survive in the urban centers, and I’m always impressed by the diversity in British freshwater systems out in the countryside. Great work with this one Barny, your uploads are always a treat.

    I&apos;ve caught pike in Loch Ken that have been feeding on Signal Crayfish, the pike&apos;s stomachs felt like they had Lego bricks in them. Unfortunately the Signal&apos;s have over run the loch and caused goodness knows how much damage to the bio-diversity of the water.

    Very cool video, I&apos;m doing this in Belgium but over here I never see so many species in one spot; We do have the same invasive crayfish problem.
