Hey from 2021!
You really come a loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong way
Still a classic!
Do you still like to use wet dry filters
Wooooow. Love you bro. This is crazy. I've been following for about 2 years now. It amazing how far you have come and you deserve everything you have.
who is watching in the very end of 2019 and the start of 2020
Is the glass for a 500 gallon?
How thick is glass or Plexiglass?
2019?
You sound so shy in this video😂😂😂😂still love ya tough😍😍😂😂
How thick is the glass on thing set up?
Damn. How far you've co e bud.
Love this video!
Blesssssssss
I think what I like the best about this video is how similar Joey is still. He hasn’t changed based on popularity and fan pressure. Props Joey for staying true to yourself and your passion for the hobby!
Joey!! You gotta do a video where you explain the filtration system & how to put one together!
My brother you’ve come such a long way. Legit went from your most recent video to this one!! Congratulations on your journey
hi bro, hope u doin fine. is your tank bottom braced? is it must? i have fish tank 255x60x60 cm, what do u think?
My man Joey, how long did this aquarium end up lasting?
Just emotional to watch this now
Rip buddy. You will be missed.
You got better at YouTube videos:)
You've come a loooooooooooooooooooong way, Joey!
whatever happened to that silver arowana?
is that the same arowana joey???
I deff prefer the black sealant you used on that newer tank you built
I'm looking to build a 8ft x 3ft x 3ft would you make it the same way or would I need extra support
I love the tank. I am wanting to build one around 300gal. how much am I looking to have in it? thanks
you need to show how to do a drip system!
Cool tank I'm gonna try this
Yay. Love this. I am getting bits together for a tank that is 1.2m wide and tall and 2.4m long. I was just looking for a container to raise salmon for aquaponics but making it a viewing tank seems so much better. Thanks.
whats the name of these fish
Hi there Happy New Year, I have question about your tank since I will be using same exact footprint as well How many coats of liquid rubber did you use for this tank and did silicone adhere good with liquid rubber?
Thanks,
Rav
He's on a well, there's no water bill! Lucky.
silicone
Joey how did you get the glass to the plywood what glue etc?
Thanks
Hey Joey I just wanted to say your my hero man I think I've watched every vid and holy hell you are a genius I wish I had your brain man to tell you the truth you have helped me step up my whole game on this hobby but I guess its not a hobby its a way of life and I just had to say thank you I have built this exact tank and built the DIY canister filter on it and I'm about to hook my 55 g tank up to it with plants manyou have saved me thousands I swear lol but anyways thank you man – josh
hi joey i was just wondering if there would be any alternatives to plywood, something that couldnt rot
thanks!
No problems with the bulkheads on the wood?
After watching this video for the 3rd time ( 8 months later) I've realized that most of this stuff is for you to play with! With 3 fish you'd be fine with the fluval! I wish I had the money and space for something cool like this, I'll stick with 1 sump for now 😛
what type of plywood is that?oak
What do u feed ur aro it has a nice color to it
you should put sand in that tank
night time viewing? it has no rocks, little gravel and other then being very filtered it looks boring as hell.
5 x 3 x 2' …don't think that is 237 gallons. I love your vids man – tell me my math is wrong. If my 125g (outside glass measurements are 6' x 2' x 18". Seems impossible.
I have a 80 gallon tank with a sump.. I want my tank to turnover 20x in one hour. How thick Pvc. and what type of pump do you reccomend. Reasonible price.
Thanks!!(:
the fluval fx5 is a monster filter! We have one on our 185g freshwater (for 6 yrs now) and we just added another one to the same tank yesterday! I think we have enough water turnover now LOL (1200 gph) haha The fish had better appreciate that!!!
I was just looking at an FX5 said it does 600gph but is sufficient enough for a 400 gallon tank. does the X6 turnover rate not apply to canister filters?
So i know Its been about 4 years did you run into any trouble with the highbuild s-200 (liquid rubber)?
Also I know you probably get tons of questions and I do apologize; I tried skiming comments for answer but what GPH water pump are you using? JW
