Franks been running his mouth about me and other fish… https://www.instagram.com/frank7chin/
Hi I really enjoy your videos, this seems like a great idea for my fish room I am currently building, I can't seem to find a link to the products you purchased.What is the model of orbit irrigation unit you used and the tankless water heater in particular?
Thanks
I was researching those RV water filters and I noticed they have some chemical (I don't remember the name) to prevent mold. Is that harmful to the fish?
Great stuff as allways Joey! Know you have left these automater water changes now since you said you felt lacy. Me personally I think automation is the way to go in meny areas so why not also in our hobby? In that way we can focus on the fun parts! 🙂
love the vid i am going to do this for my tank but i have a question for you for my water that will drip in to my tank can i use a in line coconut carbon filter cartridge that you get for the fridge is this safe to use
Very impressive set up. Nice job!
@The king of DIY love the idea. Basing everything on time seems a bit scary. Back when I had my larger setup, I just used float switches to control water level. One float kicked everything on, one kicked everything off and the last was the 'oh s**t' sensor. and they're relatively cheap. You can pick up a 5pack on ebay for $15. And anyone with a programming background could hook you down with an arduino that kicks everything on and off with some real basic relays. I've been thinking of putting together a scalable aquarium managing system that would allow for full control of lights, pumps, heaters, waterchanges etc, with a raspberry pi, arduino mega, and the likes and making it open source so people like you who give so much to the hobby could get a little help.
com means communication wire
What if fish swims into bulkhead at the wrong time
Hes so exited cuz he can get more tanks
Why have to manually drain water? Why not have the overflow on the water line so you just have to pump fresh water in to change water? What is even the point of doing this if you still have to manually drain water?
Ugh… My head is spinning. LOL
I'm excited to see how this system works out.
While I love watching you work on the gallery, could you maybe do a video on something on a smaller scale? Or have you already done a video on that? Probably so. LOL
eeeer v
You just about got it figured out, I’m feelin it man! I think all you’re missing, to complete the project, is a flux capacitor…….and then to clean it all up and make it pretty! No, but really, I have full faith that you will figure it out and get’er done. Keep up the good work!👌👍
your wire nuts are giving me anxiety! lol
To clean up the hoses running along the ceiling you could get some 6in wide cable tray used for data cables. Just a thought, very cool project so far 👍
👍
On a 1-10 scale this project is Joey.
You can build a soffit run along the hoses in the valve room and never see those hoses again really easy. Love your videos braddha keep it up
can you kill your fish if one of them gets stuck on and cycles your tank 100X in 1 hour?
everything you set up seems to be i will come back later and sort out?
I will try to set up a tank for cardinal tetra's but i like the idea of putting some angel fish in there as well.. my tank is 450liters and i'd like to know if u can keep this together? 🙂
I think you need to accept that the mess in the gallery is a permanent fixture joey XD
this is not Daily wideos. its every 2nd day
That's a lot of ho's…
Using the pump spot in the controller you can hook up a master valve over in front of the filter which will disconnect the water from the whole system when there is no demand for water as an extra safety to avoid flooding the museum
i'm happy you're getting back to some DIY stuff! looking forward to the new videos
when's the "I know it's a mess I'll clean it up later" shirt gonna be available?
You need a haircut, Joey
Have you ever interested to had a super red asian arowana? That beast looks so sick!
idk if you got your new play button yet but i work for ups and saw ur name on a package
Hey Joey! I subscribed to the monthly membership and was just wondering if you have uploaded anything yet? I didn't see anything, but I'm not sure where to find the membership content! You're the best! Thank you!!!
Nothing a few pieces of crown moulding can’t hide.
Zawesome I have
Are you worried about the water that will be left in the hoses?
Well… after binge watching a lot of your videos for a while i kinda could not stop myself from getting an aquarium myself 😀
awesome but What happens if the pipes leak when you're gone. will be a lake in the house XD
Been having a think on this. Time is not really the best as you have pointed out but the control unit you have contains all the logic you need it to so it's much smarter. If you put electronic values on the 50% sump drain you could do the following zone 1 turns on the rack 1 drain, then zone 1 turns off and zone 2 turns on the fill to rack 1 and the drain to rack 2 and so and so forth. Sensor wise you could go as complicated or sophicitated as you want. That wire link in the box is probably space for a rain sensor so if you break the link the system shuts down. You could meter the water or use float switches if you didn't mind a bit more electronics.
I notice you don't normally reply to command.. I had ask you simply question that couldn't be answers by the person made this video. We all aquarium hobby and love to be successful life. I need option or opinion about keep tang or hippo tang live
what about water level sensor for switching off the water when it reach a certain level in sump?
hey bro,my Japanese koi died today.she was with my family for 89 year's
Just a thought why dont you buy more valves attach them to the drains and then wire it up to the box that way you turn one on and it turns on the inlet and outlet at the same time
Joey your a bad ass!! I will never ever attempt half the stuff you post but damn you are entertaining to watch!
frank video once a week guys ?
Is this filter able to lower the pH of my tap water?
For the wiring pretty sure u could use some heat shrink tubing stuff
What a mess, will be good to see it in a 'finished' condition.
