Thanks for all the love over the years folks! Its been an incredible journey! I sometimes go LIVE out in the gallery and answer questions. I do so on facebook and instagram. (Will be shortly here on youtube as well) Links to where i go live for now: facebook.com/UaruJoey instagram.com/uarujoey/
great hustle Joey! really excited to see the finished gallery! by the way if you can just put the exact date of when the respective videos are recorded in the description then it would be great cause its kinda confusing
The king of DIY how are you going to remove the sting ray quills from the cement tank ?? Ps:love the vid keep up the great work and I hope that all goes well with the gallery.🐠🐟👍
I think there should be a live camera on the website so we can watch the fish whenever we want. Also have a chat box so people can ask questions and get answers from other people or from you!
Omg not many people would be able to embark on such a massive project like yours truly am amazed at how driven you are. Am so excited too whenever a video comes out. It's also great how transparent you're being with all the funds honestly Joey hope all goes well and everything works out man.
Love every update! I watch every week. You say very often how things are moving slowly and you're on other people's schedule a lot but every week I'm amazed at how much progress you make! Very nice work Joey! I'm amazed at how well everything is thought out. Very good attention to detail. Can't wait for Thursdays video!
Joey, nice to see you back to normal and not as stressed. Good to have you back. The gallery is coming along nicely. Love the concrete tank. Just Awesome!! Keep up the great work...
Your plans for the rack is exactly what I was hoping for. Being able to display and educate on fish from different parts of the world is going to make you the go-to resource for newbies like me.
I've been watching your videos for years since I stumbled onto your forum posts. I've probably modified and made 90% of the stuff you've posted and have literally took over my den with a combined 2300 gallons between all the aquariums and you pretty much just built one aquarium that is almost the same size as all of mine! I'm glad you got support for this and I wish I could do this myself some day.. I sure know my better half would appreciate my hobby out of the house. thanks for all the info and guidance in the hobby and I wish your gallery the best of luck
I Think rounding the outside corners of the cement tank would give it a more natural look. not by much just getting rid of the sharp edge look and would make that rock wall idea look amazing in my opinion especially with a waterfall. as long as the small rounding doesn't effect the integrity.
hello first I just want to say thank you so much for all you do. I am a fellow fish lover and am not brand new but am very new to the hobby of fish keeping. I think what you do for all your fish is incredible! you really are amazing for all the information you give out to people who want to own or already own fish. you inspire me. and obviously thousands more if not even more.
I'd wait. He's your buddy and mascot. Losing him would make me and a lot of others cry! What about doing tile again for the substrate? Could be easy to clean and give it some character.
If he went with a black/brown tile it could look like stone but still be bare bottom. Would look better than the concrete and wouldn't have the cleaning hassle.
I haven't finished this video yet, so maybe you answer my question, but, how are you going to stop the fish from jumping out of the new aquarium? Is there going to be a large cover?
I'd try to leave the tank as industrial and clean looking as posible, but it's looking great Joey! thanks for inspiring and making such an effort in your gallery
have you thought of using 3M 5200 sealant instead of sillicone? that's what we use for our acrylic-concrete tanks at my work. seals great to both surfaces also cures underwater if you need to make repairs.
Filip they can last a long time it's just a matter of serviceability. if you get a leak with silicone your draining the tank. 5200 you just go in and patch it up
I'm so happy you mentioned Australia! We have such amazing, unique wildlife past the "staple" kangaroos that are little known to the rest of the world but deserve so much love! I'm definitely excited for the possibility of seeing fish in your tank that were a part of my childhood hanging around rivers. I have good memories of native fish, though I never kept any, just caught them or saw them while swimming.
Hey if you want to do plants around the gallery than why not run them aquaponicly? that's one thing I'm currently working on with my 29. i first run the out put to a few layers of micron sponges then to a fluidized sand filter then down through a 40 gallon tote which holds herbs and other fast growing plants to absorb the nitrates from the water, then returned back to the tank via a bell syphon with a spray bar output. I'll be using a splitter to cycle some of the water to the filter and some back to the tank to maintain flow. with tanks your size you could literally supply a few families and if you go vertical like along the walls, it would like great and save space unlike flat bed growing and even better you don't need substrate!
Michael Collins ...good idea.....make use of the water changes that are nitrogen rich...and get something in return for it...ie veggies, fruit, flowers, ....i hate being wasteful
I love how much of a dreamer and a doer you are!!! It's inspiring! Whenever I talk about my dreams and visions for the future with my friends, they always get really uncomfortable and don't believe I can do it and it's unfortunate.
Something that I think would be very awesome would be to get a sheet of acrylic and get it cut in with people's names who donated the most on the go fund me and epoxy it into the bottom of the concrete aquarium
Thank you so much for your videos! They're very educational and I'm expecting that your website will help a lot with setting up new aquariums. You make things seem accessible and possible to do, rather than some gigantic mystery that only few can achieve.
Hey I just started watching your videos for a short time now but in this time you inspired me to go get my first fish. It's only a beta but it's a start
I don't know if everyone actually looks at joey this way but they should, Joey is literally the definition of an amazing role model. Not only does he dream big but he strives to make his dreams come true through hard work and dedication. He does everything with such enthusiasm and even acknowledges himself when he makes mistakes and then fixes them. This is a great example of how to do things. Keep up the great work joey👍🏻👌🏻
Could you Anesthetize the big guy so he wont notice the move? Or is it to farfetched to build a giant aquarium bridge connecting the 370 and the 375 then removing the bridge once he's in the 370?
Fun pet keeping it is probably twice the cost to construct something to support that volume of water at a greater height.... and it doesn't make it easier to maintain if you can't get into it once elevated.
This is going to be a great milestone for the hobby. Thank you Joey! Any plans on having a live feed on any of tanks once everything is up and running?
I really like the idea of the outer walls having a rocky look. PS: I absolutely love the videos, just wanted to say how thankful I am that you can do all of this and sho us how todo stuff by ourselves. keep up the good work. 🤗🤗🤗🤗
One idea that I had is that you should make all of the water from your tanks go into a septic tank. This would be great since you would return a lot of the water back into your groundwater supply helping the environment plus your backyard would get a lot of nutrients. This would make your groundwater supply practically last forever and you would help your city by NOT putting water that is not dirty into the sewer system.
I would not do septic, I would create a water garden and pump the water into that. Septic would be wasting most of it as well. Give it to some trees or other plants that can use the nutrients right away!
I really like the idea of the waterfall because it means that you get extra aeration. I definitely also like the idea of plants growing out of the tank. Aquaponics is a wonderful thing!
It's so nice to see how devoted you are to your hobby and I can't wait to see the different tanks you install. You've already given me so much inspiration for my own fish tanks :-)
could you maybe sedate the arrowana with clove oil to move him? just pour some into his aquarium and when he passes out you can move him into the new tank and revive him. I assume thatll be less stressful since he'll be passed out
matt atherton I would think that is more risky than moving him awake. Sedatives such as clove oil are also use to euthanize fish and getting the perfect dosage is difficult for sensitive animals. I personally think netting him into a plastic tub with a lid would be minimally stressful and very safe.
I think the waterfall with plants is an amazing idea with the rock on the outside of the tank. would look amazing. thank you for all the hard work you are putting into this love your channel
Finally subscribed. lol ... i find your videos facinating and i find myself eager to see your updates! i'm fairly new to tanks above 20 gallons.. the few videos i have up are super basic but i hope to have more and better ones up soon! thanks!
As I already said, I would love to see the concrete aquarium look like natural rock. I also really liked the idea of making some kind of a "rock wall", maybe including a waterfall. I'm convinced that will improve the look of the tank tremendously!
Huge props for your dedication to the hobby. Have you ever considered the well-being of the fish though? How many of your fish would naturally choose to live in a barren wasteland? I understand its convenient for you to not have substrate or plants, but is it really fair to doom something like a Ray whose whole life revolves around interacting with the substrate to a barren bottom? Do you really think they enjoy an empty glass prison cell? Having the fish live in big empty tanks makes it easy for YOU to provide the bare essentials in life so they can be on display for your enjoyment. Would you ever enjoy your life if you were put in a big blank room and simply given food, water, and clean air? Most zoos have made great strides (at great cost and effort) to provide their animals with more natural environments. They have consequently found their health and well-being improve as it reduces their stress to interact with a more natural environment.
i am so excited for all of this! I know you really care about your fish, so no matter how many you have, you will still do your very best to care for them. A goldfish pond outside the building would be awesome but I know goldfish are more of solid gold's type of videos
Looking great Joey. The two viewing windows were definitely the right way to go. Gee - the rock wall waterfall and plantings have got me excited - I look forward to the next couple of years. Si
Everything is come along well! I think you should go with the rock idea on the outside of the tank. Make it look as natural as possible. The end result is going to be sweet!
the back wall would look great with a diy Bakki shower filter water fall. Tank walls would look great with stucco round river stone. Thanks for sharing your progress!! looks awesome!!
Take your'e time Joey.Speaking for my-self, I can wait for this project to develope. The health of your fish is a priority. "Happiness is having something to look forward to".
Hi Joey, congrats on getting everything this far... two things from me on the feedback you asked for:- "Ultimately though, the health of the fish is my number one priority, and always will be and always has been" ...I think this quote answers your own question about moving him twice. If he possibly won't be eating for 2-3+ months I think the answer is obvious. Regarding the finish of the big tank, do a search for "polished concrete" I think if a finish like that would be doable it would look stunning!
Looking sweeeett Joey! I'm so happy for you! You deserve all these awesome tanks and fish house features! I think you should wait on the Arowana, considering how stubborn he gets after being moved, just my opinion. Great video Joey and I look forward to all the updates!
Hi Joey, I love your projects. I believe you are right not to rush it, the fish come first. I would hate to see you lose a beloved pet. Best of luck on the new tanks!
Great update Joey, think the rock/waterfall idea with plants etc is a MUST! It was exactly what I was hoping for! One thing is, I think if that is what you are going to do it makes sense to continue the rock/stone facade around the front/side of the tank so think this is the best option and if thats the case, don't paint/seal the outside - you will get much better adhesion sticking to the concrete bare. Stoked this is progressing so well Joey. Peace Ben
Thanks for all the love over the years folks! Its been an incredible journey!
I sometimes go LIVE out in the gallery and answer questions. I do so on facebook and instagram. (Will be shortly here on youtube as well)

great hustle Joey! really excited to see the finished gallery!
by the way if you can just put the exact date of when the respective videos are recorded in the description then it would be great cause its kinda confusing
The king of DIY how are you going to remove the sting ray quills from the cement tank ??
Ps:love the vid keep up the great work and I hope that all goes well with the gallery.🐠🐟👍
Craig Watts a shallow dive?
Put some Peacocks in with the Arowanas and Rays.
Since you're going to drain the big arowana tank, why don't you put clove oil, make him sleepy and he can wake up in a huge tank
I think there should be a live camera on the website so we can watch the fish whenever we want.
Also have a chat box so people can ask questions and get answers from other people or from you!
I think he did mention live streams of the gallery once it's done. The Q&A thing is a good idea too.
This is built.... like a tank. that face after XD. cracked me up
emily evans I only just go it lol
That needs to be a meme
OH MY GOD... I just now got it after reading your comment somehow... have my like
I'm a bit slow, had to go back and watch vid again.. Loved it!!
Omg not many people would be able to embark on such a massive project like yours truly am amazed at how driven you are. Am so excited too whenever a video comes out.
It's also great how transparent you're being with all the funds honestly Joey hope all goes well and everything works out man.
Love every update! I watch every week. You say very often how things are moving slowly and you're on other people's schedule a lot but every week I'm amazed at how much progress you make! Very nice work Joey! I'm amazed at how well everything is thought out. Very good attention to detail. Can't wait for Thursdays video!
LOVE LOVE LOVE the floor!! Such awesome progress. Congrats again man!
Things are getting real now👌. The rays, arowana are going to have a luxury villa compared to the previous accommodations.
Start with the staining. If done properly the textures come up very nice.
Joey, nice to see you back to normal and not as stressed. Good to have you back. The gallery is coming along nicely. Love the concrete tank. Just Awesome!! Keep up the great work...
Waterlily or lotus plants would look nice floating on the top of that tank, it would be both pretty and a cover for the animals.
Sophie Sapphire I dont think he is gonna keep zebras in the gallery ..but it's not a bad idea.
Your plans for the rack is exactly what I was hoping for. Being able to display and educate on fish from different parts of the world is going to make you the go-to resource for newbies like me.
I'm so happy for you, can't wait to see the building done!
I've been watching your videos for years since I stumbled onto your forum posts. I've probably modified and made 90% of the stuff you've posted and have literally took over my den with a combined 2300 gallons between all the aquariums and you pretty much just built one aquarium that is almost the same size as all of mine!

This looks amazing Joey. We can see how excited you are about all things coming together. Could you do a time lapse of the 10 tanks being installed?
Wait it out. You've told us countless times how temperamental that fish is when it comes to being moved.
Yep...wait. I'm not patient either...but sometimes, you gotta emulate it (you don't run it naturally) ;)
I agree! Wait it out if you can.
"Built like a tank" lmao, that was perfect. I love what your doing. Unique an over the top. Can't wait untill its all done. Your an inspiration man.
Joey im a huge fan,Im happy you got your funding for this 😁 I would love it if you replied also 🤗
Thanks D! Heres your reply. ;)
hello first I just want to say thank you so much for all you do. I am a fellow fish lover and am not brand new but am very new to the hobby of fish keeping.

Get a common pleco just for educational reasons so people will see how large they get.
Tom MacRae lol he can have mine I'd even send it to him I'd love for him to have a home like that
chabka34 Just send it to his P.O. box and the postal office will call him telling him there is a live animal and he will be forced to take it
Johnny Salami why would you even suggest something like that?
Johnny Salami I really like my pleco so I would never do that
lol common , get a adonis pleco
Looks awesome!! I'm so excited for you. I think you should tile the outside with slate which would give it a clean but natural look.
I'd wait. He's your buddy and mascot. Losing him would make me and a lot of others cry!
What about doing tile again for the substrate? Could be easy to clean and give it some character.
Wouldn't look very good with the natural theme he's got planned for the future. Just my opinion
If he went with a black/brown tile it could look like stone but still be bare bottom. Would look better than the concrete and wouldn't have the cleaning hassle.
Wow, It is going to be a really cool living lab!!! Very excited about the possibilities, and thankful you are willing to do this.
When you said, "Like a tank" lol.
I haven't finished this video yet, so maybe you answer my question, but, how are you going to stop the fish from jumping out of the new aquarium? Is there going to be a large cover?
Clayton Shuff he said he's going to cover it when he's not in the gallery
Christina Bacon thanks
waited the whole day for your video
I just love seeing how excited you get as you describe your vision. I can't wait to see this all come together!
I'd be floating face down in the water with a snorkel if I had that tank!
I'd try to leave the tank as industrial and clean looking as posible, but it's looking great Joey! thanks for inspiring and making such an effort in your gallery
have you thought of using 3M 5200 sealant instead of sillicone? that's what we use for our acrylic-concrete tanks at my work. seals great to both surfaces also cures underwater if you need to make repairs.
Sam Pierce +1 that. I always thought that silicone and acrylic bonds will fail over time, under pressure or not. Is that not the case?
Filip they can last a long time it's just a matter of serviceability. if you get a leak with silicone your draining the tank. 5200 you just go in and patch it up
Sam Pierce gotcha. Thanks.
I'm so happy you mentioned Australia! We have such amazing, unique wildlife past the "staple" kangaroos that are little known to the rest of the world but deserve so much love! I'm definitely excited for the possibility of seeing fish in your tank that were a part of my childhood hanging around rivers. I have good memories of native fish, though I never kept any, just caught them or saw them while swimming.
Patience is the key. We always want to play with our new toys asap. Sometimes we play to early and break things.
I got dizzy watching Joey constantly moving back and forth lol I know he's really excited about this but so are we . Keep up the good work !
do it right , don't rush the move ,we all can wait
Awesome Joey, can't wait for the finished product!
Hey if you want to do plants around the gallery than why not run them aquaponicly? that's one thing I'm currently working on with my 29. i first run the out put to a few layers of micron sponges then to a fluidized sand filter then down through a 40 gallon tote which holds herbs and other fast growing plants to absorb the nitrates from the water, then returned back to the tank via a bell syphon with a spray bar output. I'll be using a splitter to cycle some of the water to the filter and some back to the tank to maintain flow. with tanks your size you could literally supply a few families and if you go vertical like along the walls, it would like great and save space unlike flat bed growing and even better you don't need substrate!
Michael Collins. You beat me to it, well said.
Michael Collins ...good idea.....make use of the water changes that are nitrogen rich...and get something in return for it...ie veggies, fruit, flowers, ....i hate being wasteful
I love how much of a dreamer and a doer you are!!! It's inspiring! Whenever I talk about my dreams and visions for the future with my friends, they always get really uncomfortable and don't believe I can do it and it's unfortunate.
You are basically going to have enough content for the rest of the year just for setting up the gallery.
Oh, and have you thought about setting up a paludarium in one of the 100 gallons?
I love the look of polished concrete with a clear sealant tbh. so exciting! hope there's going to be a live feed of the tank somewhere.
Patience is a virtue, so take your time :D
The Gun Guys love your vids !!
thanks bro, but they are so old lol
Your new tank is coming along great!!!! I plan to do something like this with my 3000 gallon pond!!!
Something that I think would be very awesome would be to get a sheet of acrylic and get it cut in with people's names who donated the most on the go fund me and epoxy it into the bottom of the concrete aquarium
Thank you so much for your videos! They're very educational and I'm expecting that your website will help a lot with setting up new aquariums. You make things seem accessible and possible to do, rather than some gigantic mystery that only few can achieve.

I'm experiencing major aquarium envy. Can't wait to see it all done.
I can't even tell you how excited I am to see this done! I know you'll make it look amazing!
Could you Anesthetize the big guy so he wont notice the move? Or is it to farfetched to build a giant aquarium bridge connecting the 370 and the 375 then removing the bridge once he's in the 370?
Fish are smart, he will notice the different background and such
Super excited for the gallery!
You just know it's a good day when joey releases a new video. like if you agree
agree
What? The while point of DIY is to DO IT YOURSELF how is he being lazy teaching us how to do things and build aquariums
True
agree
Definitely
It is really cool to see the progress of the gallery in real time! I appreciate the updates! Good luck!
Are the gold fish coming back??????
The rock wall with water fall and plants growing sounds really cool! I understand it is a LONG way down the road, but it is a really cool idea.
Can I just ask you? Why is the tank so low? Isn't it impractical so you have to sit to properly see what is inside?
Fun pet keeping no.
Fun pet keeping it is probably twice the cost to construct something to support that volume of water at a greater height.... and it doesn't make it easier to maintain if you can't get into it once elevated.
i completely agree. while i'm sure it'll be great, elevating it 2 feet would have made a huge difference.
Fun pet keeping because it’s 2,000 gallons and incredibly heavy
I'm so glad you went with 2 viewing panels! It looks great so far, I can't wait!!
GET SOME PEACOCK BASS!
Yeah, they come from the same place ass the rays.
Jeff K rays ass? thicc
This is going to be a great milestone for the hobby. Thank you Joey! Any plans on having a live feed on any of tanks once everything is up and running?
Personally I would wait on moving your fish. Just my opinion.
Can't wait to see the concrete tank in action!
Good grief way too many gallons for me .... well currently. KILLING IT man you are like bob the builder but for fish geeks.
Jay Wilson 😅😅😅
I really like the idea of the outer walls having a rocky look. PS: I absolutely love the videos, just wanted to say how thankful I am that you can do all of this and sho us how todo stuff by ourselves. keep up the good work. 🤗🤗🤗🤗
One idea that I had is that you should make all of the water from your tanks go into a septic tank. This would be great since you would return a lot of the water back into your groundwater supply helping the environment plus your backyard would get a lot of nutrients. This would make your groundwater supply practically last forever and you would help your city by NOT putting water that is not dirty into the sewer system.
I would not do septic, I would create a water garden and pump the water into that. Septic would be wasting most of it as well. Give it to some trees or other plants that can use the nutrients right away!
Mohammad I Yes everyone wins
I was thinking that first, but I thought he would not want to do that lol. He could make all the waste water go into some type of fish pond.
Yeah, that's what I was thinking, lol.
Mohammad I Septic is not a good idea. Having an irrigation or watering system for the trees and plants in his yard would be better
I really like the idea of the waterfall because it means that you get extra aeration.
I definitely also like the idea of plants growing out of the tank. Aquaponics is a wonderful thing!
add an archer fish in the 375 planted tank
I think you should be patient when moving the big guy! Such a beautiful fish!!! Love the idea of the planted wall and waterfall!
4:05 I died
Totally insane aquarium, awesome that you build this all just for the fish. True passion
joey you are to humble
It's so nice to see how devoted you are to your hobby and I can't wait to see the different tanks you install. You've already given me so much inspiration for my own fish tanks :-)
could you maybe sedate the arrowana with clove oil to move him? just pour some into his aquarium and when he passes out you can move him into the new tank and revive him. I assume thatll be less stressful since he'll be passed out
matt atherton I would think that is more risky than moving him awake. Sedatives such as clove oil are also use to euthanize fish and getting the perfect dosage is difficult for sensitive animals. I personally think netting him into a plastic tub with a lid would be minimally stressful and very safe.
Crazyloveforanimals 16 he's done it before to his arowana
It's amazing Joe, I can not wait to see the gallery done😉
what about a natural looking waterfall on that big tank
Brandon Weldon I think he said that was the plan. :)
oh ok awesome. i must have missed that :)
as soon as I see these pop up on my phone straight on the laptop! love watching these
Do whatever is best for the fish it would be tragic for him to die
This Gallery is gonna be Awesome !!!
Would love to see the Salt Water ones.
What about your goldfish ?
I don't have any plans on getting an aquarium, but damn am I invested in the projects this guy does.
375G Reef Tank
I think the waterfall with plants is an amazing idea with the rock on the outside of the tank. would look amazing. thank you for all the hard work you are putting into this love your channel
Oscars!!!
Finally subscribed. lol ... i find your videos facinating and i find myself eager to see your updates! i'm fairly new to tanks above 20 gallons.. the few videos i have up are super basic but i hope to have more and better ones up soon! thanks!
u need to make a sea swamp or a mangrove tank
As I already said, I would love to see the concrete aquarium look like natural rock. I also really liked the idea of making some kind of a "rock wall", maybe including a waterfall. I'm convinced that will improve the look of the tank tremendously!
Huge props for your dedication to the hobby. Have you ever considered the well-being of the fish though? How many of your fish would naturally choose to live in a barren wasteland? I understand its convenient for you to not have substrate or plants, but is it really fair to doom something like a Ray whose whole life revolves around interacting with the substrate to a barren bottom?

Most zoos have made great strides (at great cost and effort) to provide their animals with more natural environments. They have consequently found their health and well-being improve as it reduces their stress to interact with a more natural environment.
Amen for that! well said
So many things wrong in this comment from someone who has no understanding of the hobby.
i am so excited for all of this! I know you really care about your fish, so no matter how many you have, you will still do your very best to care for them.
A goldfish pond outside the building would be awesome but I know goldfish are more of solid gold's type of videos
Buy my chicken!
Colonel Sanders no.
Looking great Joey. The two viewing windows were definitely the right way to go.
Gee - the rock wall waterfall and plantings have got me excited - I look forward to the next couple of years. Si
U should get an arapima or a red tail catfish
Alfie Holloway red tail catfish would be cool. 😎
Getting really excited!! You need to bring back the Fancy Goldfish!!
Everything is come along well! I think you should go with the rock idea on the outside of the tank. Make it look as natural as possible. The end result is going to be sweet!
the back wall would look great with a diy Bakki shower filter water fall. Tank walls would look great with stucco round river stone.
Thanks for sharing your progress!! looks awesome!!
This is incredible! Can't wait to see it all finished
Take your'e time Joey.Speaking for my-self, I can wait for this project to develope. The health of your fish is a priority. "Happiness is having something to look forward to".
Hi Joey, congrats on getting everything this far... two things from me on the feedback you asked for:-
"Ultimately though, the health of the fish is my number one priority, and always will be and always has been" ...I think this quote answers your own question about moving him twice. If he possibly won't be eating for 2-3+ months I think the answer is obvious.
Regarding the finish of the big tank, do a search for "polished concrete" I think if a finish like that would be doable it would look stunning!
Mind blowing! Really looking forward to the journey and hoping your visions become reality!
Looking sweeeett Joey! I'm so happy for you! You deserve all these awesome tanks and fish house features! I think you should wait on the Arowana, considering how stubborn he gets after being moved, just my opinion. Great video Joey and I look forward to all the updates!
man i cannot wait to see what this room is gonna be like in one year!! I ll bee here to see that for sure!
Hi Joey, I love your projects. I believe you are right not to rush it, the fish come first. I would hate to see you lose a beloved pet. Best of luck on the new tanks!
Great update Joey, think the rock/waterfall idea with plants etc is a MUST! It was exactly what I was hoping for!

you sound so excited you have everything planned in your head!!
