Leave the comments to the comments.. no more videos about comments please. Especially the idiots.. I didn't want to watch the video , had to torture myself in hopes of hearing you talk about what your doing with all your fish . Not repeating yourself from what you already did and say in first video of the ray or other videos.. A great waste of my time and highly disappointed you fed to what the idiots wanted .. Next time if you decide to talk about comments how about address the good comments! Or just keep doing what you are doing, why I watch .

Whatever you wanna do bobo. But for the record I skipped through the majority of the video. It wasn't your real time reactions that got tiresome it was the naration that was unpleasant.

I sincerely believe you set up these tanks just to piss me off!! "I know John loves Asian Arowanas so I'll be sure he sees mine front and center at the beginning of the video AND I'll just keep buying Black Diamonds and rubbing it in his face" lol. You know the real deal, I'm not pissed, just jealous!! Particularly jealous now that you have a Ray with special needs!

That Helen video was a rollercoaster I wasn't ready for, but I think you pulled it off perfectly. I know it takes you a long time, but when you put more effort into your edits, they're normally pretty clean and professional. It's good you're mature enough to address these issues people seem to have. Good job Joey!

Warming up in the bag just gets her metabolizing the poison. Likely getting cold lowered the absorption of ammonia. And saved her life. Apparently rays have electro detectors as sharks do. So seeing food may not be the first way she finds it. And I wasn't complaining about the drama. You had me on the edge of my seat.
@Whatareyou---Күн бұрын
joey im gonna be real right now, first off you are amazing and i ve been watching your DIY projects since forever second off you know you saved the life of a stingray, sure it wasn't the picture perfect way that the haters expected it to go but you had to take those measures to save it so you don't need to pay attention to these like farming clowns.

Once you become successful especially really successful they become envious and hateful. I have watched your videos from the beginning. You inspired me in all aspects of my life because of your positivity. A few sad people want to bring you down. Just continue what you are doing. Great job. I have learned so much from your channel.

Keep educating it’s what you do best xxxx love from this UK fan xxx

I've been a big fan for 7 years, watched for hours upon hours. I do think that the video in question was my least favorite, both technically in terms of enjoyment to watch/listen to, but also the way the video made me feel, the mood/vibes. I wasn't sure whether it was good or bad, left feeling pretty conflicted after the video, but I didn't feel the need to hate on it. I am interested to see what was actually said and how others perceived the video. Like I give your regular videos 5 stars, A+ almost across the board. Every video lately about stands and everything going on in both fish rooms is amazing. This stingray is amazing too, I think many justt had a bad emotional reaction to that particular video and I think it's valid to acknowledge it was a bit hard to watch.

When the no-eyed ray is eating well, and with rays typically hugging the bottom, maybe add some Pike cichlids, and (or) a Black arowana. Our if he will not bother the rays, maybe at least put Tyrese the Pufferfish in there.

Joey why do you always say you've got rare fish when they are very common aquarium fish, if some fish is rare it means they are very difficult to find and obtain and most likely they wouldn't be for sale unless you and the fish store owner have a good customer to shop owner relationship where he trusts you with the fish that you will care for it.
