About Brian Barczyk:
Hi! I’m Brian Barczyk, and I have been daily vlogging on YouTube since May 10, 2016 sharing my amazing life filled with animals. My journey here on YouTube and social media has been truly magnificent and magical. Since 2016, I’ve been part of TV network series, produced my own documentary in South Africa, traveled the world to meet incredible animals and animal lovers, started a podcast, created a convention for animal content creators, built and expanded The Reptarium – an interactive reptile Zoo in Utica, Michigan and so much more.
In March 2023, just as we were ready to break ground on our expanded facility, I received a life-altering diagnosis of inoperable Pancreatic Cancer. Despite the challenges and my fears, the amazing community we’ve built on YouTube over the last 7+ years has kept me inspired to continue sharing my journey.
Now, I’m fully committed to building our expanded facility, Legasea Aquarium & The Reptarium, just across the street. This project represents resilience and the pursuit of dreams in difficult times. With the incredible support of our community, the #ReptileArmy, we’re turning obstacles into opportunities. Together, let’s create a brighter future for reptiles and all animals, inspiring others to embrace their passions in the face of adversity.
Join us on this inspiring journey of discovery, conservation, and hope. Together, we’ll make a lasting impact and celebrate the extraordinary animal world.

Good Morning Reptile Army! Hope the start of your weeks have been awesome. It's always exciting seeing progression the Legesea Aquarium! Today we head to Bashea Aquatics and get to see some of the smaller tanks and filtration he is working on for us. We are probably about 4 weeks away from building the large exhibits at the Aquarium! Then things really start to take off! Its's going to be so much fun! Hope you enjoy the process! Love you all! Brian
This stuff has been the best therapy for you❣️
Laurie must be on cloud nine with how well you are handling all this❣️😊
Love to watch Steve help get the aquariums up and running😁👍
I thought you were toning down items so as not to have to worry. You could get your life in order for what ever may come. 😮
Bryan. I know your hair was so important to you. Would you be up for wearing fun wigs?
I think you should get an elephant trunk snake for your big aquariums and also it is 100% aquatic does not need land
I can’t wait to come see both the Reptarium, and the Legesea. It will be epic! I would also love to meet you!
i been in the saltwater industry for a while, it is failing and many stores are closing. I know this is your last wish but its not going to work out in the long RUN. your family will not be able to keep up with the maintenance and several quarantine systems also. sorry to be a downer but i think you should spend more time with your kids.
Love the tanks and filtration stuff.
I have always wondered about that road, will the visitors have to run? 😂😉
Sending love and healthy thoughts to you all 💜💜💜
You are looking really good Brian.
Stay Strong Brain. Great video.
I’m an African cichlid breeder, and would love to donate some fish to your aquarium if you are going to have an African tank.
💚💜💜💜💜💚
Was that a Budo Goromo? I love that colour/pattern of Koi. Such a rich and also subtle contrast!
Yes I want to see it set up from scratch Brian
I love seeing all the tanks for Legasea!! Especially the work before actually going to the building. I'm excited to see every part of it. All the enclosures!!
I wanna see everything thst goes into this build for thr legasea it's so cool. Brian your looking amazing.
We love seeing Steve in your videos! It would be sick to see more of his involvement with the aquarium. Cant wait for the future content. Keep fighting Brian. You got this.
Man this aquarium is gonna be special.. can't wait to see all the pieces put together
The missed high five to clap between the boys made me laugh so loud!
B roll is great but A roll is Vomit inducing. Please get camera man to take better shots of conversations that present both speakers then subject matter.
i used to have a really long rat tail on my head… but the hair coming from that guys chin is so fkn epic i wonder if it has its own name…
I am so excited for the legesea aquarium to be done and open. Absolutely making a trip up for the opening. You have inspired me to dive back into my love of reptiles over the last 3 years
