The king of DIY awesome work and video the water looks fresh and clean 👍
Bruce is lonely Joey. Hope you give him some friends
I've had great results from Momotoro Bacteria House media in my koi pond. It's a cylindrical ceramic media that the momotoro koi farm uses as their only filtration material in the show ponds. I haven't noticed or heard of any break down of the media in my 1+ year of use
Joey. You used to be all about the fluidized filter media life, do you still use it? If not why have you converted?
Do you think all your fish look out their tanks & think... Man, is this guy messy!
i love using aquariums as filters. so easy to see what everything is doing, and if any sections need cleaned. super simple, and very effective.
I knew them sumps would get changed, much better now to clean and see what's going on 👍
I dont have an aquarium but still i watch your videos!!
I dont even own any fish... but yet I'm so entertained with your channel. Keep up the great work Joey!!
Would be cool to add solenoid valves onto those green water change hoses you have. You could then link them all to a main drain pipe at the back of the sump area and make draining water super easy. I know you've said before it doesn't take you all that much time but would be a cool project
Looks great bro! Simple and clean 🤙
Loved that you changed it up to DIY, very simple 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
1 million! Woot! Amazing!! Well done!!!
Hi Joey I love the video you gave me good ideas to do my sump too. Love videos like this it helps us small people like me with small tanks. Thanks for the video Joey you are awesome keep doing videos.
Captain Hook looks huge!
I said it a few days ago - I am not especially an Oscar fan, but Captain Hook is making me rethink that. He is gorgeous.
Albino Tiger Oscars are beautiful as well
Dude love your DIY PROJECTS. Even if we've seen them before, nice to see you using DIY yourself vs the fancy stuff. Bravo!!!
I would really love to see you do some videos on how to get into the hobby. Give us that good information. The internet is overloaded with opinions. I'd love to hear yours and I think a lot of other people will too!
Research what you want to keep, learn about the nitrogen cycle, buy a tank big enough for the fish you want, cycle the tank and go nuts.
He has them look in his past videos they go back like 10 years.
CONGRATS ON 1 million subs
New video I’m excited! New subscriber but in the last 5 days I’ve probably watched over 100 videos!
How do you find time to be a dad, work a full-time job, be an +1 millions follower youtubers, be an exceptional aquarist, and workout? Dude u make it hard for regular Joe's like us lol hahaha. congrats on your video and content
Another amazing Tube. Insane amount of work. Love it, good luck.
Awesome
Question
why are you changing the sumps tho?
He said in the vid before he just switched it around so we could watch and that he usually would do something different every 6 months
Best fish TH-camr so inspiring!!!
Congrats on one mil!
I like this sump idea. Simple and easy to clean. Thanks Joey!
Joe your power is in the effectiveness and simplicity of things! keep it up
1,000,000!!! Congrats 🎉🎈🍾🎊
Joey thanks for sharing how to build different sumps makes things easier for us
The wait is everytime worth it 😉
Congrats on 1 million subscribers Joey!
SO much better..! Easy access for maintaining and cleaning, you can see what's going on in there... it's just better.
Joey you're an inspiration to all aquarium owners, thanks for all the great content you're literally the best and congratulations on your 1m subscribers!
Great vids Joey I was wondering when you would be doing another discus video. I am about to start keeping discus and that would be amazing. Thanks and congratulations on 1 mil.
Massively Cool I love watching you work Great ideas
I enjoyed this. I'd do it but have all my tanks separated through the house to make the most of natural lighting . It's given me a few good ideas .
just found your video and really helpful! Thanks for your video!
I was looking so forward to this vlog😍😍
I like the new DIY sumps. They are so much easier to view and clean then the seamless custom milk plastic ones. Now I know why you switched them out.
Congrats on 1 mil Joey!!!! WOOOO
Good to se a diy video every once in a while!
I am only two minutes into the video and I am already liking it!!!!!! I love your DIYs!!!!!
Cool! I should try this
Tuned in for a Fish Show
Didn't realize it was also a Gun Show!
How about a DIY on how to build those!
Great work joey really love ur videos as always 😁😁😁
@The king of DIY , Can you potentially explore the idea of setting a reverse light cycle on one of your sumps and place Potted plants inside. See how it affects the overall quality of those particular tanks in terms of PH and similar?
Refugium
Thank you so much for your video! I loved it. I always head to ur Chanel when I need things explained, I have learing disabilities and this can sometimes seem jumbled up. But ur videos I not only get information about the projects I'm working on for my 20 fish tanks...but you always make me smile. I loved in the last video u just started throwing the boxes 😄 🤣. Do you have any videos for saltwater sump with a refugium? Thank you again so much 💖
Cool keep up the good work you have inspired me !!
Captain Hook looks like he has become very comfortable in his new home. Every Oscar I have ever had has a personality different from others. Has he showed anything of his likes and/or dislikes? Does he recognize you? Once one of my Oscars didn't eat one of the gold fish feeders I had given him. They were buddies for a long time. I love Oscars. I am finding it hard not to get another one.
It's better to get Oscar from small size and feed them with proper food.. will bring out the patterns more
Sailesh StHa yes I know that. I enjoy getting babies and watching them grow. I also didn't feed him only feeders. He ate other types of food. He liked getting something new. One of my other Oscars loved crawfish tails and the dry food. He didn't like the feeders much.
Nicely done
Joey back with an og diy vid, awesome
Doing all this work in some Gore-Tex nmd’s. Respect my man.
Love the videos Joey I learn a lot about how to make fish filters and the different types of fish to keep it up 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Because of you, I will be running three aquariums on one heating/oxygenating/filtration system. It will be a series of plastic jars with three pumps and splitters going to them (pumps from each aquarium). 2 for different kinds of filtering, 1 for heating, 1 for oxygenating . Everything is going to be done outside of my aquariums so they will look all pretty inside and disturb the fish as little as possible. I also figured I would have a splitter system with shutoff valves so I could maximize the use of the pumps to changing the water too. Shut off the filter system, and turn on the water draining system using the pumps to drain it. I don't want to pay that much for an inline heater, so I figure once they all cycle through a few times, all of them could be heated by that one jar and cheap little heater.
Congrats on 1M Joey!
Congrats on 1 Mil man❤
Yes Joey! Cleaning up is always the longest and most frustrating part of it all! 😆
Loved It!!!
1 million!!! Congrats man!
Nice job 👍🏻
Joey goes big. Always. Never small. Never one. Just sledgehammer it all. Yolo!
1 million subscribers !
Congratulations !
Your srs are the KING OF DIY TY SO SO MUCH. You’ve just un flipped my wallet so much. Thank you so much!!!!! YUR THE MAN FR
You should not repaint your floors it will keep chipping/wearing away. You need to epoxy floor. And it should last for years and years.
congrats on 1 million!!!
Love your videos joey
Why did you switch out those expensive sumps for diy breeders?
To show that they work just as well.
I just love captain hook and soon I'm getting an Oscar so exited
It will become your friend.
Awesome dude
Congratulations Joey 1 million already
Congrats on 1M subs Joey! 😉
Adorable professor DIY. Also Hiiii Capt. Hook! =)
Those shoes tho! 🔥 They were sold out by the time i tried to get me a pair. Cool fish and fresh shoes make for an awesome TH-cam channel
I got a flashlight so we can be Fancccy. Lol you make me laugh in every video. It makes my husband think Im crazy , well let's be honest..... I am lol
Ya I was omygosh haha I wonder if he remembers some of the stuff he says haha
Nice video 👍
Every time I’m in Asda’s (which I think is Walmart in Canada?) I always see big tubs/barrels and think “hmmm I could make a good filter out of this” and I don’t even need a big filter as I don’t have a big tank 😂😂
😂
That's funny..! many of us do that.
Yay more diy videos
Dude yes!!! Thank you!!!! I was looking at sumps for $350
Can you do a video with you doing your water chemistry checks please
Diy hang on the back over flow box!!! Hope you can do that soon👍
Congrats on 1 million
Just make my day😀
Thought joey was driving car into the gallery at the beginning 😭
Love your vids
Love all your information and DIY guidance! Lots of encouragement in building my own sump for a reef tank I want to start.
You have mechanical and biological filtration. Curious, what about chemical filtration? Charcoal for instance.
Congratulations on your 1 million subscribers.
i love your videos so much plsssss upload fun stuff iwait each day until you upload
your vids are my favorite
Must be difficult maintaining so many large tanks! Respect
Joey, your going back to your roots. You look happy, when doing DIY.
Love your vedio mate

How we've all grown up........
Very informative videos, any update on the micro tank?
I'm LATE BUT I'M STILL HERE! WOO NEW SUMP!
Long live the King! (Of DIY)
congratulations for 1 million subscriber
Would you recommend PVC or some sort of tubing to pull the water from aquarium to the sump and returning it back?
Yes, yes my little fishy friends... it was 'uncle Joey' on the interweb shaming daddy into yet another water change this week.
Have you thought of a way to cover sumps to avoid evaporation? It might be a bit tricky with the plumbing but I'm sure you could just notch out some spots in the greenhouse paneling and that would do the trick.
