Joey, I know it’s cheap, but it’s because they use child labor and cheap labor to produce those products in parts of the world that are impoverished. Why are you supporting that?
I really enjoyed thie video and seeing you so excited opening the packages like a kid on Christmas morning. I do the same when I order my bird supplies. As adults we can still enjoy opening packages. You made me smile when you were excited about the ship 😅
I bought one of the big ones and have it plugged into a 6000L/H pump. The filter box is rated for 3500L/H max if I'm not mistaken. Only reason I don't push the pump to an even higher speed is because it started making a weird noise once it got to 6500L/H 😅 Have it in my 240G/900L tank with a few sponge filters, works great.
First of all: you scare me with that knife! 😂 Now more seriously... That filtration at 6:30 is really good, I'm using that for the last 2 years, bought it from AliExpress. The lamp at 18:30, I have some of those, very good product, bought them in a chinese shop, here in Portugal.
The last light has 3 types of colors. Just turn it off and on again and you get something different. Using that light for over a year and grows easy plants perfectly
OMFG LOOK AT THE COLOR OF YOUR SALT WATER FISH with the new light!! Dam!!!! I can’t believe how much better the lights are. The old lights work great and look great so it just surprised me when they were even better. Dang yes I want to see more of these types of videos and you should get things for in the tank for decorations like the stuff you have already but fun things like what you got for her.
Love the vids, Joey. May I suggest that you take some of the coupon codes and buy a pocket knife or two for the gallery instead of using a chef's knife LOL. Thanks for always educating and entertaining me!
Man, that ship brings back memories - we had a very similar looking ship for our tank growing up! Don’t ask me how that iteration of my fish keeping went though 😂
The one thing that I loved the most was the shrimp feeder tube. Question for you. What did you feed your shrimp here in the video. I've tried a couple different varieties of Algae wafers, among other things, and my shrimp won't touch the wafers of any kind. Or are you making your own shrimp food? I've already ordered the shrimp tube from Temu. Thanks!!
Some people are complaining about him being a sellout but forgetting he comes from being a diy aquarium hobbyist first. This man has been trying to find cheaper ways to make equipment for his tanks since the jump and my guess is that he wouldn’t settle for temu products if he didn’t truly believe in them. Either his temu products will last and prove his point or they won’t and he’ll stop using them.
Would be interested to see a longer term review of those lights. That price for that much light is... Surprising. I'm expecting them to be terribly overdriven diodes, with a short service life.
Joey may i suggest getting driftwood from Temu. I got some neat looking pieces with character. Can get some nice little pieces for as low as $2 or less. And larger pieces look like a fantastic deal
I used that tube to feed frogs who were in a tank with nano fish and they would always be in the cup eating the food. Before they wouldn't always get fed. However the tube I had was much longer for a better fit for my tank.
Thankz Joey, I just went to your link on the app and bought many of your top picks. Thank you for the great review video. Honestly people are scare to buy but when the King of DIY approves it, is GO TIME! 🙌✌️😎👍
i've been looking for a good digi thermometer myself! I sadly am just using that topfin with the sensor on the wire. That digi thermometer is much nicer!
I know saving money is great everything is far to expensive these days specially in Canada with our carbon tax, but if we buy everything from over seas how are we supporting out local businesses? I do my best to buy from my lfs first
For Fahrenheit to Celsius: (F* - 32) x 5/9 = C* (78.4* - 32) x .5556 = 25.77* 78.4* F = 25.77* C The 5/9 in decimal form is .5556 to make the math easier…
What’s great is that the box filter set that was $79 on Temu is discontinued ALREADY but Walmart seems to have it in stock for $154!! Looks like Walmart beat everyone’s idea of buying from Temu and re-selling it at a higher price 😂
It hurt to watch him unboxing that light, to the point I wanted to reach through the camera and do it myself. I think I've become mildly OCD just watching that. Maybe one of his fellow TH-camrs who know his address could send him a bunch of box cutters...
Hey Joey, I've been using those filter pads from temu for the past 8 months & rinsing them out every week & they haven't came apart yet. I've also been using those media bags in my hob filters too, I really like both of them. Thnx for the video, I didn't know temu had lights like those & I need a light for my newest 75g. My wife loves temu. Keep up the good work, we both watch your channel & have learned a lot from you.
I love your unboxing videos. They are always fun to watch and be surprised to see what you got. Also, having just 1 light on the salt tank may make some fun contrast of light and shadows.
I have the ship in my tank, when I ordered it I thought it would be thicker like typical decoration are. It gets blown around by flow I found if I didn’t weigh it down. Also lots of paint on it, ..
Yeah the large filters are already gone and now being sold for $300+ USD. Would have been nice! Hopefully they get more. I got a small one to try out but it won’t do much for me lol
@@thekingofdiy yeah it’s great to see you have so much pull in the hobby to show your success just the same! Definitely keep anything you’re looking at to yourself until you have them though! You’re not wrong at all with your ending comments in this video! Regardless keep up the great work!
@@thekingofdiy I got burned after your first video you did when you set it up on the saltwater. Actually ordered it whilst watching your video. Paid same price as you and when it arrived it was way smaller than the one you first received. I couldn't believe how small it was Haven't trusted the robbing bastards since lol
Some people use a box cutter,Joey uses a flippin dagger 👀🫨💀 Regarding the temp gauge ,make sure you have an old stand-by thermometer just in case . I made the mistake of using one of their digital types and thought my heater wasn't working properly .You can probably see where I'm going with this situation .. Uh yeah the digital thermometer was reading 10° F too low so I adjusted it .Next thing I know I have several dead fish . BTW the version I bought was exactly what you'll find at Petco or Pet smart here in the US .They just rebrand it and charge a big mark up for it as usual. I think I'll stick with the tried and true glass thermos from now on . Otherwise I like Temu .The communication,shipping,transactions were all excellent as were "almost" all of the things I bought from them .I could do without their aggressive marketing however .It's a bit much sometimes but then again that's why they're so huge now .
I love temu a plus I play the game for points and as I watch ur video I'm thinking how much points you got for buying all that goodies for the aquarium.
Hey Joey I have the same thermometer on my tanks as what you got you can change the thermometer from Fahrenheit to Celsius you just have to hold of the power button
Please do more of these. I would be curious what they have for fish enrichment, like structure and stuff. Maybe see what they have for wave makers! You should do a collab with Tamara and try to find the coolest stuff!
I have a 60g tank that currently sits empty because I only have the tank. I've been watching your channel because I am all about DIY and now Temu is gonna supply my build. Thanks for sharing
This video was super fun to watch for since I’ve been discovering these prices too. I have some of the items you showed on you video. As always, great video. 😊

Joey, I know it’s cheap, but it’s because they use child labor and cheap labor to produce those products in parts of the world that are impoverished. Why are you supporting that?
Dam they don't sell them any more😢
Temu also sells utility knives and package cutters. Buy one. It's cheaper than stitches.
I really enjoyed thie video and seeing you so excited opening the packages like a kid on Christmas morning. I do the same when I order my bird supplies. As adults we can still enjoy opening packages. You made me smile when you were excited about the ship 😅
Something about doing an unboxing with a chef's knife is very appropriate for this channel 😂
Jpey using Michael Myers' knife to open packages...lol
Yea DIY and you don’t have a utility knife or box cutter?
Except it’s not sharp, and it’s waaaaay too big for this application. Knife guys are cringing hard.
"using"... if thats what you want to call it xD
Love temu, I've been so impressed with their stuff. Especially the quality as I wasn't expecting it for the price. Great video.
I bought one of the big ones and have it plugged into a 6000L/H pump.
The filter box is rated for 3500L/H max if I'm not mistaken.

Have it in my 240G/900L tank with a few sponge filters, works great.
Please! Can someone get our mans a box cutter? 🤣🤣🤣🤣
He bought one but the problem is it’s inside that Temu package 😂
Aquarium lamp discontinued as of 15:18 Australian Eastern Time, 23rd March.
Like these types of videos where we can live vicariously through you joey😅 what are your thoughts on ultra violet canister filters??
Used that white light, the one you used for the saltwater, does not last long. Used it 6 hours a day, lasted maybe less than 6 mos.
Honestly really surprised how much good stuff it had aquarium hobby being cheaper for everyone Is awesome
Cheers Joey. I like you trying out Cheaper stuff. It's the only ones I can afford.
🤟😎💚🇦🇺
And what about "support your local shop, it's important!"?
The foam Matt works great. I use it already in my diy canister filter for my saltwater tank. Rinses out easy and reuse.
First of all: you scare me with that knife! 😂
Now more seriously...
That filtration at 6:30 is really good, I'm using that for the last 2 years, bought it from AliExpress.

Thank you I have been wondering if the aquarium stuff was worth getting.

But it looks cool…
@thekingofdiy no, no, it doesn't look cool. A nice pocket knife looks better than a huge kitchen knife.
@thekingofdiy you can't win a boxing match if you cut your fingers off lol
They have the UV setting on the first light would look good in the saltwater tank dude
I’ve been wanting to try that filter floss now that you ordered it and it looks good I’m gonna get me some

Just got that last two foot light earlier this week. Nice little light.
Temu is a Chinese data harvesting app.If you put the app on your phone it will take all information including your banking information
Evidence? Oh wait, i forgot the US does not need an evidence for any accusation or imposing any ban hammer.
EVERY app does that
@@brittanylawless680hell no!
@@brittanylawless680yup, But this is from China. Now you get it? 😊
So will Google

watching joey struggle to open boxes is fun.
Hygger 24hr light is my favorite.
I used that tube to feed frogs who were in a tank with nano fish and they would always be in the cup eating the food. Before they wouldn't always get fed. However the tube I had was much longer for a better fit for my tank.
Joey do they sell like a All-in-one Salt water set up? I would love to see that
In before the next video title being " TEMU BURNED DOWN MY GALLERY "
You was having a heck of a time opening that box, lol
Hey joey . You are the only channel whose video I have set notifications on .
Love from India.❤
Love the Michael Myers knife
Did you go a little crazy with your shopping ? Glad you did shows me how much you can get .
Love Temu! The only thing is the waiting period, and you're not overpaying for a brand. I built my 75-gallon and a 100-gallon pond with Temu.
Thankz Joey, I just went to your link on the app and bought many of your top picks. Thank you for the great review video. Honestly people are scare to buy but when the King of DIY approves it, is GO TIME! 🙌✌️😎👍

I'm a bit further along temu ordering then you, considering how cheap it is I was happy also..been buying from them over a yr now,
Please do more Joe. Your videos all ways inspire me all the time.
U should redo a video on big tank resealing and the thickness the silicon should be for each size and the mathematics to figure it out
what do you have against pocket knives and box cutters bro?
Nice video Joey. Have you ever opened a boxed package before? lol.
wow that's one long ad for Temu
Joey I’m having trouble pinning down a pump to use for the TEMU box filter. I don’t see a link. What pump for the large box on a 125g tank
Great video! I really enjoyed the unboxing.
I was suspcious of temu until i tried it, so cheap and delivers real fast and you basically bought what i've bought on temu ahahhaha
No complaints with nicrew and hygger products so far. Both china brands. Heater that made shrimp soup was a tetra
Then lights are pretty good, ima going buy them right after the video is finished 😂
Feel like Christmas.
Yup!!! That’s how it is when shopping at Temu - you tend to forget what you bought LOL
I know saving money is great everything is far to expensive these days specially in Canada with our carbon tax, but if we buy everything from over seas how are we supporting out local businesses?
I do my best to buy from my lfs first
Does Temu sell box cutters?
I went to look at the light, and it says this item has been discontinued.
For Fahrenheit to Celsius:
(F* - 32) x 5/9 = C*
(78.4* - 32) x .5556 = 25.77*
78.4* F = 25.77* C
The 5/9 in decimal form is .5556 to make the math easier…
I like the filter! Is there a video of the same type of filter? I see the larger one on a big tank!
I shop around as well and have found some great deals on Temu.
Do a 100% temu build I think that’ll be fun to see.
Especially if it’s a little bit whacky
Will that white light fit across the width of the salt tank? You could add a few of those that way and it may look better.
That padding is some real good stuff
Hi..what happens in a power failure to the overhead filters? The water drops in the aquarium?
Public comment was added to the comment section of this video just for the engagement.
Joey, You should put USD on your book. I though it was $60 Canadian, until I saw my credit card bill was $81.32.
Joey, good luck not getting your credit card stolen. Temu stole my wifes
What’s great is that the box filter set that was $79 on Temu is discontinued ALREADY but Walmart seems to have it in stock for $154!! Looks like Walmart beat everyone’s idea of buying from Temu and re-selling it at a higher price 😂
Watching Joey with that knife in the beginning gave me anxiety😂 👀

No more DIY, it’s now The king of TEMU 😂

Great video Joey I also do all my aquarium shopping on Temu
I think the white light on the saltwater aquarium just disappears. Imo the white would be better than black, on that one at least!
This is cool
Watching him open these boxes man
Yeah the large filters are already gone and now being sold for $300+ USD. Would have been nice! Hopefully they get more. I got a small one to try out but it won’t do much for me lol
I see that. Went way up right after my last video on them. Sold out then came back triple in price

36" light is discontinued :(
Hey Joey I have the same thermometer on my tanks as what you got you can change the thermometer from Fahrenheit to Celsius you just have to hold of the power button
Ok! I bought 5 more lol
@@thekingofdiy definitely worth having them that’s for sure
Watching you use a knife is an ambulance ride waiting to happen.
Please do more of these. I would be curious what they have for fish enrichment, like structure and stuff. Maybe see what they have for wave makers! You should do a collab with Tamara and try to find the coolest stuff!
Nothing like taking advantage of slave labor & letting TEMU have all your personal info just to get a deal. Very irresponsible video.
I’ve seen those glass feeder things I thought it was a defuser I’m like oh who’s into into the c02 lol
Better hold on to the old lights for when the Temu junk quits working.

The fuckin Michael Meyers knife to open boxes 🤣
I'd like to see you adapt one of the over head filters to filter 2 tanks at once

Definitely a very interesting and entertaining video !! You HAVE to do more UNBOXING contents like this !!
Temu infomercial.
Maybe use a smaller/better cutting implement to open boxes👍
