[@MikeVivirito]

Awesome design scheme! I manage an aquarium shop in North Carolina and today a customer came in wearing a Frank shirt! She said she's been a big fan of your's for a while now and was envious that you and I met during Reefapalooza 2015 in NYC haha.

[@edgarpickle1]

Where in NC? I'm in the triangle.

[@GalonMarakTa]

I'm in Asheville, NC! Where you at? :D

[@user-wi7br4nj6p]

Yeah i'm wondering where your store is at too...wiould be great to meet you!

[@Scardofshadows]

You run The Fish Room in Raleigh?

[@codyh6461]

Where at in nc?

[@gretahunt4401]

I don't how you do it - I wasn't a fish person, I probably won't ever get any fish BUT I love your videos and have learnt so much about fish and definitely have a new found appreciation for them. On a sad note, I lost my Mom a few days ago and watching your videos is just about the only thing keeping me sane and together. Distraction in the form of Joey videos are the best anxiety, depression, grief suppressants.. And I just wanted to thank you for your hard work u put into these videos. ❤

[@Hasumk12EI]

Hey Joey, I gotta say it, I haven't check your videos for a long time because the lack of actual DIY projects. It's good to see you're coming back to your roots, you have a subscriber back :) thank you

[@deanhorn9914]

Has anyone else noticed Joey's catch phase " let me explain"

[@62paintballer]

I would suggest adding faux stacked rock house siding for the sides of the pond! It would add more to the cost, I know. But, I feel like it would dress it up nicely in the cheapest and easiest way!

[@waltermidkiff3662]

Now this is the King of DIY that I started watching! Something we could actually do and afford! Thank you.

[@suburbanfarmer2024]

Can’t believe your about to be first aquarium channel in history to hit 1M your an inspiration. I grew up watching your videos.

[@themagnificentsans8317]

I love how excited and enthusiastic you are for this; nothing beats seeing someone talking about something they love

[@gekkebever]

Put some lights at the bottom of the ''pond'' so we can see the fish swim :)

[@thekingofdiy]

I’ll probably just use an underwater camera instead. Regular lights.

[@colinbrahim3953]

Never knew I needed an indoor pond.....thx joey😐

[@user-wi7br4nj6p]

Guppy pond? You need to have a guppy tank. Such a classic

[@cutsiefruitsthreetwoone8862]

It’s beautiful!!!!

[@grizta30]

You want to fill it up before you staple the edge of the liner, as the weight of the water will push all the corners in

[@AmericanReefing]

Great video Joey! Looking forward to seeing the end product.

[@MyTeaandCrumpets]

Once it’s wrapped it will look amazeing, people forget what a house looks like with out all the plaster board

[@rutujanturkar8731]

Hey Joey i tried building a plywood aquarium (500 gallon) after seeing ur how to video on it and it was great for 2 months but then the glass just came off and the entire house was flooded with 500 gallons of water. So my parents are kinda scared now when ever u drop a new vid😂😂 This was a while ago and the tank was just sitting there but this pond build of yours inspired me to make a pond out of it and i really wanted to keep black diamonds in it. I used to hate sting rays but because of ur videos i now love them. (I probably am gonna have to sell my ps4 to get them though )

[@maddie5730]

I would love to see your old fancy goldfish back in the pond. I think they are the most suited to what you have built.

[@Ash-gy3if]

Ah, finally frank gets his own pond.

[@GrimFelArt]

Looks excellent! I'd love to see some graceful dragon koi gliding around in there 😍

[@Loveofpets]

Can't wait to see the finished project

[@shawntv6793]

This is such a good channel

[@imadestroythat1994]

I would love to see a turtle set up with this pond . Do it Joey !

[@danielbutt5387]

cannot wait to see it complete!

[@Timothy_Andrews]

Who else thought Joey trapped himself in there lol.

[@thisshimmer1430]

Loving the video so far! Your videos really inspire me to do creative things with my fish tanks. I love the personality in your videos and can't wait for another one to come out. Keep doing amazing things!!!

[@SmokingMan26]

Instead of just painting the outside black did you think about doing a 3D kinda outside to make it look like a mound or something more natural? could use Plaster wrapping and use balloons to make rocks and maybe even embed real sticks into the side and esc, almost like your Aqua decor backgrounds. Also would probably help installation also.

[@jayatienza1622]

Love your energy man!

[@varunkatyal4654]

U r going nuts

[@jameswright2312]

Nice pond so far

[@themakerz2881]

the most rational reasons for subscribing to a youtube channel, always at the end thanks joey

[@greengroveaquatics]

All hail! The King of Diy has returned! Loved every minute of it. How hard/expensive would this project have been if you used pond armor instead of a pond liner?

[@Darkslide2AR-FE]

so frank gets a pond all to himself, lol he'd love that too much.

[@WolfTwisted]

God I'm such a dingus, I'm so sleep deprived I caught myself blowing at my screen to get the wood dust off the wood after you drilled a hole into it. Awesome build my dude!

[@kaptinkrook2263]

WolfTwisted Go to sleep meth head

[@logan3815]

Def excited to see how this turns out!! Can't wait!

[@delgadonatedogg]

Man I can't wait to see this project when it's finished.

[@silvanbarber8613]

A viewing panel on just one side would look awesome!

[@zerroabear435]

Omg thanks for making my day better! I'm sitting here watching this while sicker then a dog. I'm trying to start my own pound. This is educational. Love your vids. Keep them coming! I always wait for them vids.

[@dramaticexperiment144]

Congratulations on 800,000 sub By the end of the year you'll definitely be over 1million

[@santoroaquatics5038]

Keep it up Joey I can’t wait to see the fish you get for you new indoor pond and I love watching your fish videos everyday man keep it up 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@DomFishingUK]

please paint the skirting board before you fill it with water lol

[@themurrrr]

I am so proud of myself to know what a washer is 😎😎😎😎😎😎 Especially since I usually don’t build anything and also: English is my second language. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣, yes, this is a weird thing to take pride in, but ya’all have no idea how badly I wish I had the handyness level of this guy!!!!!

[@rajomar2619]

You should add some TURTLES and some KOI seems like a good combination so hope to see them.

[@boomboxkat1464]

i don’t see a pond. i see a carrel for a joey.

[@andrewjamesprobert]

So excited for this to be done! Progress is coming along nicely!

[@Devious_Sly]

Looking great Joey! Cant wait to see the finished build!

[@allroundfishkeeper3818]

Looks great... Woodwork is awsome and strong... Love the fact that it can be drained and moved or changed to your liking... Love it!!!

[@The.MrFish]

Could run threaded rods through each corner instead of using bolts fairly cheaply and it would help spread the load on the corners.

[@radishesfortheresistance4734]

What do you think joeys other shirts look like? Do you think he has any other shirts? How’s many DIY fishkeeper shirts does Joey own?

[@Ripper9966]

Radishes for the Resistance joey does not simply eear non diy shirts. Pssh

[@mo-me-mo]

you're one of my biggest inspirations, I plan on building a 10 by 12 foot shed in my backyard so I can build a large pond like aquarium for my iridescent sharks. This walkthrough of the indoor pond is helping tons!!!

[@snks4pets]

Super excited to see this pond come to fruition.

[@evanscott7652]

Super hype for the pond Joey!

[@nicolagray8083]

Excited for this one!!

[@SassyTart42]

So excited to see this pond complete!

[@SaltCritters]

Awesome. Great way to build it!

[@RnJaquaticsnpets]

G'day Joey, A great way you can heat ponds like these is to run pipe work around core (between planks).. on a closed circuit with pipes running into large olive drum with only 1 heater.. if out doors you can bury drum in ground for better insulation.. Then you should insulate between the ribs with expanda foam before covering with ply.. Or you can run a radiator base system on bottom... only issue is this takes longer to heat and cool.. FYI I have done a build like this in the past and found coil heating ( around sides within bracing).. is the most efficient for heating and cooling... Great build

[@harrysilvio6073]

Excited to see an old school diy project from you!

[@erick6102]

Awesome Joey, thanks for the DIY video

[@notinuse2110]

So hyped for this vid! 😁

[@lucashopkins6788]

I imagined the indoor pond having a shape of a standard pond you would see in someone’s backyard. The square shape is a little bit odd but it’s unique and I’m sure you’ll make it look great!

[@ecoxscape]

This is going to be a great project! Can't wait for more :)

[@TheDekozoide]

Joe just a little tip, film your videos on the other angle so we could see the gallery in the back. Great vid as always

[@larzdavis3206]

Great video and awesome design brother! Can’t wait to see it come together soon!

[@AquaCoolVideos]

Wow great project!!!

[@suburbanfarmer2024]

Yessss this is awesome Joey!

[@MrDylanbrody]

Amazing Joey! Cant wait to see how the pond turns out. Motivating me to finish my 1440 gallon. I'd love to see a red tail catfish in there.

[@joet6494]

Super cool! Can't wait to see it running and with fish.

[@TheWaterBox]

Looking good man!

[@aliens1990990]

love this

[@milito2282]

You’re great man keep going the good work 👍🏻

[@Purserr]

DIY Jacuzzi ? lol

[@HajongLee]

I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS VIDEO!

[@judgejury3230]

Turn your plumbing into a waterfall type filteration system. That's what I have outside on my pond. Hides pipes and works great!

[@raiders_and_reefs]

You're still showing people how to build new stuff from time to time. 😁

[@WCorbin182]

You are truly the King of DIY flex on em 💪🏽

[@musicmixcapecod]

So glad I subscribed this is very entertaining to watch you build this pond

[@chrisonebxl]

Awesome Joey , you're the best !!!

[@nolanburchett7972]

After watching your video asking for the definition of an at home pond and thinking about it, imo i believe an indoor pond requires 4 things. 1. Semi low to the ground so the main viewing window is the top 2. Open top 3. A variety of wildlife and plant life 4. Natural filtration

[@onyx8862]

"variation"?

[@alebass2948]

Onyx He/she means that the pond must have different kinds of plants and animals Edit: i did not want to offend anyone by assuming one's gender 😂😂

[@onyx8862]

Alexandria Basbas so a koi pond isnt a pond? lol

[@toothylizard2224]

*variety

[@alebass2948]

... based on the name koi *pond* it is a pond...

[@davewest3137]

Love it joey looking good 😁

[@Dj.Siner_BPS_Exotics]

Awesome build!!!

[@andrewtogold6348]

[@damonc2863]

[@hollysommerfeld9277]

[@brianphinney5290]

[@umar855]

[@subnotboi954]

Noice I like the start plus I like the size , fresh water?

[@_m_0_0_2]

Hey king of diy, love your vids keep it up!

[@viperwhy5900]

I feel like he is just calling it a pond so he can have another huge aquarium😂

[@Lukas-ur1gq]

Great Project 👍

[@pmotta4545]

Whoa so exciting! 👍

[@nicelandsdrinks9525]

Looks amazing

[@rainishell]

yaaaaaaaaaaas queen come thru with that budget beauty

[@christopherrector7461]

looks great joey! design sounds solid, i would love to see you do a large size trickle tower waterfall filter for this baby!

[@Troyboy2411]

Ya pond is goin to be bloody awesome 😎

[@ruironan1405]

Im also building my own pond this is an awesome build cant w8 to see the fishes in it.

[@lewischapman6208]

Ive never clicked so fast

[@koiCompetitions]

Put a bottom drain in it, it will save you a lot of heart ache down the line

[@dzplayer0149]

Lol then the fish will get drained out XD

[@koiCompetitions]

Dz Player01 no mate they’re used extensively in koi ponds, they have a cover on them😂

[@TheHillbillyHybrid]

I love this idea can wait to see the finish product

[@krisandstaceyjones9210]

Hi. Did you put the 5-1/2” bolts just in the top corners or all the way down on each corner?

[@cannednolan8194]

Don’t buy the white foam I have about 2” of it under mine and the water is still almost ice cold in the winter. Use the pink foam it’s cheaper better made and comes in larger sizes. Try 3” high which should compress a little still giving you a little over 2”.

[@jacobwhittington5524]

That is so cool great job
