When everybody was coming down on you about your blue background, I knew exactly what you were doing My son-in-law is colourblind and he loves blue lol I was going to yell at a few people, but I figured no you’ll get around to it, you did!
King of DIY love the way the gallery is looking nowadays that sign up above the 16 footer looks awesome. Keep up the great work Joey. See you on the next one.
I really like the idea of seeing you set up some breeding and grow out tanks. It’s a side of you that I’m not familiar with and one that many fish keepers can relate to. Thank you for sharing this. 👍
At the end of the day Joey, it’s your tank and you have to look at it everyday , and if it makes you happy then that’s all that matters! Ps I m digging the blue without the moss 🫶🏻🇦🇺
The King Of DIY sign needs some highlights or something. It looks like a big black blob on the wall until you get close to it. If you'd dry brush the sides of the letters with white it would make them pop and stand out. They'd be easier to read on camera. Anyone who hasn't been watching your videos for years would not know what that sign said until you got close up on it.
Blue looks good to me! Yes make it a java fern tank, bulletproof plant and when it gets algae trim and it grows new leaves with no algae. Id add bosemani rainbows because they love exploring but i know it messes up the biotope and more tetras would be cool! Also will you add substrate if you do go with Val? Sweet tank
I didn’t want to add negative feedback the 16ft when everyone else was having a go at you, but I will add a positive on now, it looks a lot better!! I would definitely add in some jungle val at the back they will definitely help and balance the tank more. Plus you will have an endless supply of them for other tanks once they sent out their runners.
Joey I think the blue is gorgeous both my tanks one a 600 and the other a 220 have that blue it is gorgeous I think that is absolutely tasteful and gorgeous job well done broski
Theres an easy way to stop Geos from destroying the tank.....get a more dominant fish, personally I got a gold Saum, and it will drive them to stay at the surface more than at the bottom....they can be very aggressive and sneaky the Geos
Joey, I’ve been wondering about your colour blindness and the background colour of the tanks. On the videos the deep blue comes over as a very dominant colour and detracts from the set up of the tank I wonder whether you’re choosing this colour because of colour blindness and whether it wouldn’t be better going for a darker neutral colour
I agree. It looks too artificial IMO. Black background, a lot more plants, loose the Geo's and get some discus + 300 rummy nose tetras as a replacement...
Joey you did talk about a breeding, an exotic pleco setup about 2 years ago. Before you built the acrylic tanks. By the way what happened to the limited edition tanks?
@@dirtdawgz8326 feels tacky and almost like a quarantine tank to me. I think it would have a nicer and I guess more mature and natural look if it had some sort of dark backgroundz
Hear me out I've got my airline tube running across the top ove my tank and moss draped over it could you do something similar with fishing line to save your moss?
It's a shame, that after all your years in the hobby you are still not able to maintain a planted tank or a functioning fish community. You just randomly through fish and plants together. Poor animals.
there they go picking on someone's disability ....color blindness. If you like it great. it looks like looking into the side of a pond or something deeper then an aquarium.
I don't know if I am the only one who thinks all of the diy king videos feells a bit too chaotic? So many aquarium changes, fish moved from one tank to other and broken stuff dead fish, water supplements ects... I feel is the opposite vibes this hobby suppose to give us. Its a hobby not a full time job. Maybe its just me.
Seriously, don't let the comments tell you what to do with YOUR aquariums and the gallery. As long as you are not negatively impacting the inhabitants, it's your gallery and you can make it look how you want it to.

A colourblind filter would be cool - to help understand what you are looking at!
Looking good!!! Please get some corydoras :)

Looks fantastic without the algae on the back and like the the larger plants good job👍👍
Should get a dozen Wild Brown or Red Discus, they would look stunning in this tank
GET OUT OF MY HEAD!!! (im totally not doing that next spring......)
There’s just fry everywhere these days!! 🥲
Acara just require water to thrive and breed. Easy fish !
next is us when we announce your pregnant!!!!!
@@thekingofdiy I thought she was pregnant 2 months ago
@@rudeboirasta3629 which would make her 5 months
Looks great Joey!!

Thanks for sharing Joey. Not surprised with Geos. P.S. what ever happened to your rainbow fish tank..it was insane!!
Good job done with this cleaning back wall in long aquarium. Now it looks nice and healthy with cleaned plants and roots.
The blue background looks fantastic! You've inspired me to paint the back of my future upgrade tank!❤
It looks fantastic Joey!! ❤
THE KING OF DIY
That dark yellow strip looks fire 07:50 🔥
Enjoying the 16ft Aquarium. I also have some Sveni and They wreck tank all the time.
glad im not alone. worse than oscars if you ask me!
Joey I still do think Discus would be a perfect in the 16’. It’s beautiful Brother

Yeah start keeping and growing babies mate heaps of people love that and U help the next gen of keepers
One jack dempsey would look great in there as well, they have some of the best coloration
Joey I think the blue is gorgeous both my tanks one a 600 and the other a 220 have that blue it is gorgeous I think that is absolutely tasteful and gorgeous job well done broski
Beautiful tank 😊
I think a big school of Denison barbs would look amazing in there. It’s looking awesome.
I told you this a long time ago literally when you brought up the idea of Geophagus and plants 😂
16 foot looks 100 times better. Add some Amazon Sword plants and Montezume Swordtails they are big swords with long Swords.
I clicked this video expecting the tank to be destroyed.
Theres an easy way to stop Geos from destroying the tank.....get a more dominant fish, personally I got a gold Saum, and it will drive them to stay at the surface more than at the bottom....they can be very aggressive and sneaky the Geos
The 16’ needs a school of Rummy Nose Tetra. They school and just swim laps all day. They would look awesome.
Exactly 👌
You need to add a bunch of neon tetras. Those would look sick in that tank
They would simply be a snack , neon's are not large enough.
Roseline sharks work look great in the 16ft tank :)
Yea, you want some substrate moved, you should see the gobies I have in my saltwater tanks.
Congrats daddy 😂 blues are a great fish and not cheap. Hatch up some brine shrimp.they grow so fast
Joey you should get some Colombian tetras…their larger, could be a good option
You Should put a dinosaur fish or fire eel in
Lets go my guy 💪💪🔥
You should get some hognose brochis, they are large Cory cats. Or just large cory cats
I think you should put some roseline sharks
in the 16-footer
Something is in Water lol. Fired Up!!!
I think the 16ft is awesome...nothing wrong with the blue background
Hi get yourself Java fern Mother plants for strength and impact . lol only suggestion
Congo tetras Joey

You said it, you can't go back now. 12x12 breeding room coming soon 😊
I bet the people who comment about how much they don't like the blue in the aquarium are real fuckin' fun at parties... 😂😂 yiiiiiiikes
Wooow beatufuil
It looks much better now. More clown loaches needed though.... :)
I totally understand why you did the blue now. Still not a fan but, i get it.
Joey you did talk about a breeding, an exotic pleco setup about 2 years ago. Before you built the acrylic tanks. By the way what happened to the limited edition tanks?
I would love to see some golden panchax killifish
My one abouna cichlid won't stop jacking up his tank😂
Good video and nice tank , hey which acara do You add to the tank?
Mayhe more flow. Get some wavemakers in there
What happend with the redtail catfish ?
Back to building walls! :-)
No you would totally add more types of acara
Looks better
😂😂 fish are cute when they do this weird stuff
That is 1 heavy tank wow
How about adding denison barbs
Like a school of denison barbs
Add mollies
DO IT!!!!!!!😂
How about one giraffe cat and one flagtail as large showcase fish
Gio Vegas!
what kind of altums are these?
Can I keep acara in a 29 gallon, there beautiful.
Gotta be honest who else doesn’t like the blue background ☝🏼
Wats wrong with it
I was considering painting a few of my tanks blue and this tank made me stay with black.
@@dirtdawgz8326 feels tacky and almost like a quarantine tank to me.
I think it would have a nicer and I guess more mature and natural look if it had some sort of dark backgroundz
Didn’t watch the part about why he did it.
I’m fine with it now hahaha.
More like an aquarium in a chinese seafood restaurant 😂
wonderful you have this aquarium my dream, I have titans, are the pt.altum wild... or are they bred F-?... Best regards from Poland
The 16 ft is fresh water, correct?
I knew the new acara were breeding!!
You need some nerite snails to eat to moss and alge
Why you stop keeping discus?
I figured on eggs. Did not predict wrigglers.
And don't mind the haters in the comments. What do they know?
Put L46 zebra pleco! (:
More Java Fern please
Joey - "i dont want to breed fish anymore"
Joeys fish -"well have we got news for you"
😂😂
So those fry you found were those true blue and yellow sevinae
Still not sure why there isn't an army of schooling otconclus... Or hill stream loaches...
Bala sharks please
Congo Tetras
🤔Gonna need a lot more sand than that to keep the CEO’s from getting to the bottom and exposing it.
Hear me out I've got my airline tube running across the top ove my tank and moss draped over it could you do something similar with fishing line to save your moss?
Can I suggest needle leaf java , it's a long leaf java similar to val but does grow as long, good contrast with trident
I want a 16ft tank with just gouramis
Denison Barbs ?
Amazonian swords all around the back?
It's a shame, that after all your years in the hobby you are still not able to maintain a planted tank or a functioning fish community. You just randomly through fish and plants together. Poor animals.
5000 cardinal tetras
❤
Yes algae gone
get some congo tetras
Get 100 sterbi corys
there they go picking on someone's disability ....color blindness. If you like it great. it looks like looking into the side of a pond or something deeper then an aquarium.
The blue background has to go
I neber liked cichlids. Remind me too much if Johny Somali’s big lips… eeeeeeyyyyyyy
