I like checking out these old videos and seeing just how far Joey has come in his production quality and presentation skills. It's like night and day. Dude has made a ton of progress in every aspect. That's why he's the king.
If you liked this video, you will LOVE my book: thekingofdiy.com
Love this, one question, If i make an underwater waterfall, will it give off air like a normal pump does? I only have 1 air pump and my fish need those bubbles lol, so does this waterfall give off any air into the water?
plz help me !
do you know what kind of sand could use to make the waterfall look real
sorry my english is so bad
Long Lê silica sand
justin davies
Of course. It is underwater so O2 will diffuse into the water like any other source of air underwater... And yes, of course you will have a constant stream of bubbles emerging on top of your submerged waterfall.

So you’re all going to ignore the fact that he had a casting couch... ok 😂😂😂

@@dardvader6 thats great "D thks for sharing , anyone else?:D
right now
I used to use this exact system in 1970 but placed underneath a sheet of plastic which formed a bottom with a 1" gap underneath. This naturally used the sand/gravel as a filter bed. But I realise ideas have changed over time. Love your videos although I don't breed Discus anymore.

+Eds Orchids Hey Ed!! I wish I had been able to watch the hobby evolve as much as you have gotten to. You must be a wealth of information.
Info yes but the Discus these days are fabulous compared to the browns,greens and heckles I used to get.
Many thanks for the reply and keep showing your magnificent fish.
Ed
Boi your old asf get of youtube haha
@@UnfilteredJustice Thank you for saying something, I was just about to flame his @ss.
Eric Perez you are a disgrace
Dang Joey...in the interest of my binge, this is the first older video I have watched. You have talked about them. The King of DIY in the early days. 👍👍👍
Thank you for this detailed tutorial other people have done different ones but they're not as detailed when it comes to hooking up the pump. I'm trying to put this together for my fish and I have had a hard time understanding how to hook up the pump
WOW! That was awesome. Love this demonstration, if I ever set up an aquarium i will definitely try this. Thanks for sharing this video.
Just started my 55 gallon aquarium a few months back and wanted to give thanks for all the helpful tips you have provided.
Nice demo of the principles of a sand fall. I use moon sand for mine. Also, you can use a power head if you don't like the hum of an air pump. the setup is a little different but the venturi effect action is the same.
Thank you very much for a very clear instructional video, it allowed me to create my sand fall although I took it a step further and did a multi-level fall. Thanks again, I enjoy my tank so much more thanks to your video.
African Cichlid tank with 3D background and multi level sand fall.
This video gave me an idea for making a filter! Keep the PVC elevated off of the substrait, and put a sponge at the elbow opening.
You sir are gunna go mental when you discover the "sponge filter"
I absolutely love your newer videos you seem so much happier
I used this along with a small paint roller tray with 1mm holes drilled in it to make an under gravel filter for my nano tank. Good work Joey.
I love your channel so much
holy cow dude now you just gave me an idea to make effortless "suction/insta overflow filter etch2. i did not expect this. i just clicked your video
Joeee was shyyy aw bro 👌🏼😂it’s ok great job great information
Thank you for adding English subtitles in this video. Much appreciated. :)
This is so cool! What a great idea, and thanks for the easy instructions =)
Your the most amazing aquarium expert!
thnx mate very clean and simple ............ one may advanced it but once basic is through one can do marvels
Was looking for some new DIY ideas for my aquarium and after seeing this and how easy u made it subscribed one time.Great job
man your simply AWESOME. Not only people but even fish should thank you for your work. Thank you again and GOD BLESS YOU
loved ur video I'm thinking of replacing the sand with glitter on a super thin tank. Thanks for the inspiration xxx
This is perfect for me to use both for water movement in my tank. And I could even adapt this to be used to run irrigation for my plants.
that "welcome back" hit different 😂
i really like how you ask questions then answer them, it makes me think.

now this is a cheap excellent DIY waterfall aquarium project, thumbs up great video
Simple enough as well as very impressive idea sir!🙌🙌🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Wow very nicely explained Thanks!
Oh my goodness! I'm so glad I stumbled upon this video. I've been looking at all of the solutions to move water from a fish tank into a sump tank. So far, the options are pretty limited. 1: Extra pump, 2: Aqua bridge (of a sort), 3: Drill hole in side of tank. None of these solutions particularly excite me and each has it's drawbacks. But seeing as how you essentially made a PVC air lift and it has decent water flow... THIS is the solution; I'm sure of it. Liked + Subbed
Good video as always im surprised i havent seen it til now. Awesome!
If you keep at this video making stuff and get more confident , im sure one day you will be so popular that you will be able to build some kind of aquarium gallery or somethig
CHANGES MENSWEAR lmfao
Hahaha nice
@@flex85 LOOOL
Well whadda ya know btw i know you posted that when hè already did that
CHANGES MENSWEAR lmao when you wrote that he already had one
Cool idea and this project leaves a lot of places you could go with it! I like it!
Thanks!! I was looking for this explanation
First video i saw from him. Decided to rewatch it. He has changed sooooo much; for the better though :)
That was a great idea bro ... cost effective and easy to build .. Thanks a ton :)
Awesome! I can see this technique used in a sculptural way. I can see wall sized versions that are 5 in thick with an unlimited way of creating backgrounds. My initial idea: Grand canyon walls with multi waterfalls complete with brush. Focused lighting would be a challenge. One question: how to get say 8 or ten waterfalls working together with one pump? Also, I wonder if you can disperse the sand evenly to create the effect of snow.
Awesome vid..thanks works & looks great on my salt water & fresh water tank...
Beginner here. Thanks for great video and info👌
This looks great; I have a bunch of ideas. Can you make an underwater bubble river?
Great video . Really enjoy listening to your explanations ,very informative, Watching your videos has helped me make better videos . Thank you again .
Well done for your inspirations. Quite thought provoking!
Hahaha. You look so young! Crazy how long I've been watching your channel. Fun looking back
Thanks for great idea.. its simply explained..
Joey, I think you should do an update to this with the following modification. Seperate one corner of the tank as you would a weir using glass or acrylic. Place the spout facing the glass and use the same grain of sand. The partition will trap the sand at the bottom create an interesting background effect. I'd love to take this on myself and post it, but I lack the time! You're the man- give it a shot and show us what it's like!
Joey I'm one of your subscribers and have feed back many positive comments about lots of your video posts. I appreciate the time you take to demonstrate so many interesting things to thousands of your followers at zero cost us. That said, this particular video leaves me unsure as to why anybody would want this in their tank, maybe I'm a minority when I say, 'I really don't see what you're trying to achieve here"???
Am the only one who as realize how much bigger and stronger he has got
From all those tanks he keeps moving and building lol comes with the bigger tanks. i guess. I mean have u seen his videos just year he has moved his tanks so many times... lol
Personal gym aka tanks
Nope
Heartland Fishing yes omg
Also have you seen the kids in the first video that they are featured in and then the one where they went into the gallery? They have changed a lot. Especially the big boy.
I spent 3 hours looking on TH-cam and google and I was just about to give up but I found this video! Thanks alot
It's genius....I will be my next project next weekend...
Thanks a lot...
OMG This is the only good channel for DIY aquariums on YT!
Glad you think so. I was a lot of work creating it. :)
Thanks Joey, Loved your vid.
Thanks for sharing the idea,...👍👍 good explanation
I seen one of these at the store over 10 years ago and I always wished I would have got it cus I never seen one since.. I remember that it had sand in with it and I have asked even the people at the pet store they looked at me like I was making it up ... glad I found this video
joe i love your videos ur spending much time in creating these videos i really like them alot keep it going joe
Your so smart great idea dude your a legend
Cool! Just got my 10gal tank. Imma try this. Thanks a lot
Your really DIY king now.
I was looking for this tutorial for so long :) thank you
Wow , thank you. Really Helpful
Great video, keep up the good work!!
Very cool!
This is sooo cool! I was hoping for just a little more though. Like, would you build a styrofoam "rock" (like the one that covers the pvc pipe) with a stair effect for the sand to flow down? I'd love to see how that concept would work, instead of having the sand just fall straight down. Or do you think that may make a huge mess?
why dislike this awesome video? its very easy and you understand a lot of things!
+Dungeons Heroes Well, this is simply a tutorial on how it works. I used the wrong sand and it looked horrible so some don't understand what im trying to show. I did revisit this project recently though and it shows the end result.
this is awesome!! i can't wait to try this. thanx
That is Hella cool. I just built my first custom acrylic tank. No water or fish yet, But now Im working on a bad ass water fall. Thanks :)
wowww...KEREN!!! GOOD!! TERIMAKASIH (From Indonesian)
Hey everyone. Use pool filter sand for this. There is no mess. Joey is merely showing everyone the basic concept. Also it is important to trap 100% of the sand at the bottom, otherwise it will stop working over time. Good job Joey :)
thanks man! i was wondering how to do this and you got the answer! its two-thumbs up!
you can use that set up for a gravel cleaner! just attach a fine mesh bag at the end and start cleaning! it should work :) havent tested it yet but seems logical
I actually have a video on exactly what you are describing. :)
HOW TO: Keep your aquarium clean
Your method is good and simple, but instead of using sand i prefer to use stones in my aquarium leaving the pipe construction above the stones and still have that beautiful waterfall effect. Thanks for the idea, i benefited from it. It works better with stones, no cloudy mess like the sand. Thanks again
I enjoyed watching ur video Good one
Could you as well use this method for filtration? Love your videos and I plan on building my own very soon based on your methods and instructions.
thank you , this video was very help full for me
very, very nice, Good job.
thanks a lot for you this video is very benefit to me .i hope you successful for all field in life.
great job finally some one explains it
thanks bro. very ingenious
i like ur videos bro giving alot of idea thank you!!:)
Good video, great explanation,but I would know about the pump spec, power and minimum pressure needed to achieve a better result, but wich sand to use as well.
subbed, nice tutorial
Good job sir I love this
nice video I would use that for just a powerful water flow. with out the sand. I like powerful moving water in my aquarium.and pond
Dude im so excited to make my own in my next tank i have so many ideas this is a great idea!
that's awesome, best DIY channel :D keep it up man
nice video. Try using an inclined super smooth surface around the suction part to collect the sand. Easier as gravity does its part. ;)
I racked my brain figuring out how to build my own water propulsion.. I cannot believe this method never occurred to me. Thank Joey, I'm off to my workshop to better refine the plumbing of my first saltwater tank.
Merci pour la video , c'est genial comme tu fabrique des materiel pour aquarium. :)
Muy bien explicado, gracias
Wonderful video😻👌👌👌
thank u my friend!!! am gonna try to do my waterfall yeahh!
I just wanna thank you for sharing this idea,. I now have under water waterfalls:) sorry my bad English Joey, I just really wanna thank you for this and I'm learning from you,.
thanks for ur video....so much usefull...:-)
you have become a lot better at making videos. I've been binge watching your show while trying to set up an old 200 gallon tank and have learned a lot. the stand I have is not perfectly flat. it is level but there are slight imperfections that leave small gaps. the tank hasn't been filled because I had another tank I had had a warped stand and spilled 210 gallons in my living room. what are your thoughts on foam between the tank and the stand? have you made a video?
Great Channel! I am from Puerto Rico and I am new in this, but I love it. I am making a small aquarium now what kind of glue can I use for the acrilic?
Nice info. Thanks!
Hi Joey, first off i'd like to say thank you for all your videos. It's been a great help especially since I recently moved to Colombia and its a lot harder to come across a good aquarium items here. I'm currently building a sandfall using your pvc method, using Styrofoam to build my mountain that will in return support the pvc. This will be my 2nd attempt since the spray paint melted the stryofoam I used . Needless to say my 2nd one is coming out a lot nicer. What can I use to paint that wont melt the foam? Will acrylic paint hurt my fish?
Would be good for reef tank with internal overflows, of course minus all the sand. Use it in the same way but have it an inch or so above the sandbed. You could position it next to the overflow and it would help to bring fish waste and other debris to the top. From there it would be pulled right into the overflow. On the other hand i don't understand why you would want to cloud your aquarium with sand. Plus can't be pleasant for the pets we keep, breathing sand. Good vid, sparked lots of ideas.
