April 14, 2025 Ep4 Possibly the most beautiful river in the world is in Congo? - Thomas Minesi
In this episode we chat extensively with Thomas Minesi, a native Congolese nature explorer and a fellow hobbyist, about this mysterious lake or river (still up to debate), which according to Thomas, is THE most beautiful river in the world! He might be bias, but I might just agree with him!
Check out our youtube video of this podcast if you want to see what we are talking about!

The Aqua Naturaliasts podcast dives into the stories and relationships of people and the fascinating aquatic environment. If you ever have any interest in the aquarium hobby, or just curious about the aquatic natural world, then this is the podcast for you! Not only will I interview some of the legendary figures in the hobby, we'll also have some deep conversations with experts and scientists all over the world, getting to know what the hobby and the aquatic environment is like in different countries and cultures.
In this Episode, Casey and I talk to the River Explorer, Ivan Mikolji, to learn from his journey and experience exploring the rivers and streams in the Venezuelan Amazon rainforest. Ivan is better known for his YouTube series documenting his trips to clear bodies of water that are filled with fish we love. His amazing photos and videos will bring you into the world of the Amazon Rainforest. This is also one of the longest interview we've ever recorded, so get comfortable and enjoy the show!
