This store knows what they are doing to keep fish and aquatic critters we all love alive. They have filtration, substrate and plants. They know what an eco system is. What a wonderful caring outlet. Well done. Brilliant. I see the water clear so they do not overfeed either. 10/10 ! Substriaght, plants, plants and more plants. If they ever get a power out, all their wildlife will live thanks to their set up. Well done all that work there, and their love for what they do.
I'm down for a KING OF DIY world tour show cases stores and hobbyist. Side note I reckon planted angel tanks are so under rated, I have one with a few schools of tetra's, cory's and some of the brighter nicer looking male guppies I breed and iv had it now for 18 months and I haven't changed or rescaped it just amazing to sit and watch and how the angels interact with me when I come to the tank
Andrew and his team are beyond fantastic. I love going to his store even though it's an hour drive for me. Andrew and Juliana are top notch when it comes to knowledge and service. Thanks for doing this video Joey.
Yeah, GFP axolotls glow green under blacklight. The intention was so that it would be easier to see organs and limbs grow from foreign cells. A big reason axolotls aren't extinct is because they're so useful in the lab, so they would graft on cells from a different axolotl and see how well it would grow. When one of them was normal and the other was GFP, they could tell that it was the foreign cells/tissue growing on the axolotl they grafted it onto.
Joey , first time on the chanel for ages. Firstly you cant beat a living reef tank corals are stunning.....secondly so glad to see a calmed down Joey almost back to old without the hyperness good content
You say the problem with owning a fish store is that you would struggle to let them go. But but joey .. you let most go eventually and always buy double.. you know you're maid not just for a shop but a chain of shops .. its your loyalty to your local shop but the right plan means success for all 👍 a bigger shop is what they need with your designs and all those great contacts.. there client list boom 💥
Every non-box pet shop always gets things for themselves.. its what gets some people into the hobby. Big box stores wont risk unique purchases. Some of the things my LFS get in are awesome. Want them but dont have the room yet
Congrats joey but be carefull. You already turned your hobby into a career once. Not trying to bring you down in anyway. It's just that you are very valuable to the hobby and we know how fast hobbies can change
Great video! A friend and I are currently looking to get a group of Tropheus ordered into Canada, but it genuinely seems impossible to get anything specific these days!
GIANT THANK YOU TO THE KING OF DIY! What an overall great experience meeting Joey in person, and thank you to everyone for the continued support!😁👍

Thank you Lee!😁
Love the vids, just a suggestion. You should mic up people when you’re interviewing them.
YES, mic up the shop owner!
Also a bit less motion on the camera would be much appreciated!
This.. I was just about to say that.
@@4Shreks 😁
He puts zero efforts in his video. He just records and posts it
Andrew is one of the most chill and informative owners! Won’t sell you something that won’t work or be compatible in your setup or skill level!
We appreciate you Jordan!!😁👍
love your videos just wanted to say i got my first fish store job this week and you are a huge insparation

This is my LFS and I was so surprised to see this video featuring them. They're the best!
Thanks Mike we appreciate you!👍
Loved the video how ever I wished you spoke abt permits or like the basic stuff to open a shop
Love this store so much, reminds me of the LFS I used to work at before we closed ❤
Love it, love the story!
Kora is the BOMB! Sweet angel baby, you're the dog of the day!

i love it when stores have great display tanks where u can see they have run over years - just like the old angels. and they all seem passioned!
Great store and he is s cool guy .Nice Reef tanks
Really cool, living the dream!
Great Lakes Fish and Coral is what got me into the saltwater. Andrew helps me out a lot and of course Cora helps bring in the the customers. 😂
Fun fact, GFP is actually a protein that is used for fluorescent microscopy. Really cool stuff! Fascinating to see it on the axolotl
looks like a great store and nice owner
You picked out great stores to show us! Thx
Andrew is one of the best guys around. World class customer care.
Truly appreciate that Greg!😁👍
Awesome owner awesome store !

Happy Birthday to me
Well we are on the same plan about starting a fish store, normally I sell food fish, but I also want to get in to live fish sales
Great video dude

❤❤❤
Get a clownfish and anemone tank 🧡🧡
5:35 my angler just died the other day. :( Be careful! They're known to die at the one year mark due to poor nutrition.
Visit bluefish aquariums next
CONGRATS!
My dream is to own a fish store 😊
Cleanest fish store ever..
repo-ing in east Cleveland wow wonder how scary that could've been 😮
Lol yeaaaa that was fun!
Most shop owners seem to drop the hobby part at some point because it becomes too much to keep up with...that's what I've seen.
🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼🤙🏼
The meaning of life is to find your gift. The purpose of life is to give it away.
There is a sweet fish store in Cleveland that raises and breeds cichlids called something fishy
I love cichlids... Jack Dempseys are my favorite as some might be able to tell by my profile.
I will see you next week in my club in Atlanta
😮
They glow like neon in the blue light
God is so good. Glad you were able to succeed and prosper!!
Haha I thought that the title was saying you would be a fish store owner now
I like these types of videos but only when the sound quality is good. Should of had personal microphones on. Could barely understand anything.
Joey are you a Newfoundlander?
First one here!
first!
To help him out can you order online directly from him
Woohoo
Lol…please help me right this wrong!!! It’s not anenome….it is anemone!!!! ugh!!! 😂
For the Algo...

Public comment was added to the comment section of this video.
Why don't you ever go to 1fish 2fish anymore?
Color light bad.
Sideway tanks look so awful in my opinion.
still sea sick ..
Great video! A friend and I are currently looking to get a group of Tropheus ordered into Canada, but it genuinely seems impossible to get anything specific these days!
That was the fakest congratulations I've ever heard.
