How to build a 3D aquarium background.

Here you'll find all collections you've created before.
Other than the creativity in putting it together, it's real ugly.
the fish will sleep with one eye opened
Interesting, but fish have less space for swimming…
Looks like kraken tentacles
Awesome man
nice….
Are the foam creations after they have been coated ok for the tank and fish or do you still have to use a fiberglass resin????for it to be safe in the water for the fish……I was thinking of a underwater bonsai tree that interconnects with another….i attempted it useing wire as a base and pond seal to make sure that water didnt get inside…but they floated..so i got to come up with a better idea
Joey, Joey ,Joey One ugly thing!!! Good work !! ever thought of a light diffuser background (the kind you use in filters), cut to size, add suction cups, place in your aquarium add moss, Java lace , Java fern.and Anubis.
The more moss the better (any kind) ..Current hits the moss it will grow super fast.

Your awesome dude…
that would be a great shrimp tank
I WOULD put it in my house :O you opened up a wholeee new world for me
the only thing im confused about /\the paint for in the aquarium ?
how do you get it safe for fish and same coloring
and do you maybe have some product names for me <3
THAAAAAAAAAAAAANKS
This looks interesting. Nice creative process.
I like the concept and design, thanks you've given me some ideas on my next build.
very good work man!…but please,don't use in your the videos transitions to black ,it is it is annoying and is delaying it.
can you use foam like you find in a couch cushion to make a background and will the foam cutter cut it
Your video is very helpful and informative for me. Great creativity, I’m inspired to do my first build. Thanks!
Like it!!! But I think a bigger tank was needed for this one!!! LOL
hi love the video but I was wondering what kind of fiberglass resistant paint you used to coat the center trunk in the tank to seal the toxins?
i think it looks really cool
I think it's really bad ass looking. I have really enjoyed ALL your videos !
Joey you have got far too much time on your hands.
Amazing. So creative!
Excellent job ! … You just needed a little artistic help with the color values of the tree.
GREAT video…asusual! Say…Im interested in a table top –very small –aquarium but not in the standard ugly store bought kind. What tiny heater/filter product should I get for a tank 2 gallons and under. THANKS! KEEP THOSE VIDEOS COMING! <3
i think it was freakin amazing! if you like fantasy and avatar environments, this is a must! THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO!!!!
Looks like the scary talking trees from the Wizard of Oz. Good build
I thought that was a great project! I love how you combined art and function.
Just any type of fiberglass resin?
Such a handy man! very creative work!
well made it helps out and makes fishkeeping a lot more interesting
Pretty gnarly but one of a kind……awesome concept, good work
Hello! What kind of spray do you use…Is not toxic for the fishe?
Thanks
This is a fantastic idea and an absolutely stunning build! It seems your creativity and craftsmanship knows no bounds and I'm so thankful I've found your channel. I'm so grateful I'm re-entering the hobby at a time there us so much information so readily available for free, and I only wish I'd had these tools (15+!) years ago when I first fell in love with the hobby but had little guidance and so few opportunities to learn DIY as safely and effectively as you have given us on your channel.
I'm actually re-entering the hobby with Aquaponics (instead of only goldfish keeping as before) and there hasn't been a single video I've watched from you that didn't have at least something I could take away and use, be that info or full projects, to help me fall in love with the hobby all over again making it even more enjoyable and affordable!
Thank you so much and I can't wait to see your next project!
I think it looks fantastic. Nice job. You could even paint that a different color and make it look like coral.
LOL! Medusa's head! Stop looking at me!
Go
I REALLY like the way it came out! It also fills my head with all kinds of ideas, thank you. Like someone in the comments said, coral would look awesome made like this!! Take good care :0)~
Hi Joe please Can You creat a 3d background Amazonia , using redwood or Amazonia roots and sands , stones, gravel different size.I'm more into using only natural products, what a kind of silicon will be fab to used , to glue them into styropham foam .regards Archie
i thought it looked cool
where did you acquire the styrofoam in such a large size and thickness? the local stores here in Houston, TX like Lowe's and Home Depot do not sell anything that size. Or, did you use insulating Foam?
Can you do a video on about the Fibergalss resin?
Fiberglass resin where you get that from? So you painted it then you put the fiberglass resin on?

Like a boss! Haha well done sir!

Hey Joey, add more ferns between those woods, or perhaps use a DIY gel to attach mosses…this is a raw idea, but if you could see it in the bigger picture, turns out very cool for a small tank
Wow, Joey- that is really peaceful to wach- I think it looks so real! I kept thinking- at 15:56 that piece you have made- imagine making hundreds of small to medium holes in all the branches- then a few star-pucker designs- then coloring it pinkish or whaever type of Coral you'd like? That really looks like REAL coral. Amazing!
Go to the thrift store and get yourself an electric knife, will make the cutter much easier. Really enjoyed the video, thanx for the time you took to do this for us.
dude the store is closed 🙁
watched this along time ago when i was new to the hobby and didnt like your end result but now after seeing it again with a lil bit of a different view on it i realy like that tank but it wouldnt work in my house but if i had a wood cabin rustic type home and u cover the stand or make a new one to make it look like the tank is held but from a tree thats the same shape as your tree in tank as thou the tree grow partly thro the tank
