IT IS HERE!!!

[@thekingofdiy]

I have gone LIVE a few times in the gallery already on facebook. Follow me there as well if you haven't: facebook.com/UaruJoey

[@aquahogs]

The king of DIY I'm curious, why are the inlet and outlet for your tank on the same side? Is it beneficial to have it that way?

[@humblefishhaven9923]

The king of DIY finally..ive been waiting for your video from the time i woke up. because evry sunday i wake up you have already a posted video.

[@dmufasa3589]

king diy do it fast I wanna see it do it

[@somethingsurvivalandgames8498]

Do u live in U.K. I thought you lived in us

[@jacobchrem2536]

Jason Walter he lives in Canada

[@pecktec]

That's pretty remarkable. I love seeing the scale of these systems super sized. Although part of me wants to make a tiny impractical version. I do t know why my mind goes there. Way to go Joey it's coming along nicely.

[@MARKluvsAZcards]

Eyy

[@Dustinsfishtanks]

That acrylic is insane

[@lukeybalukey285]

hi

[@winstonisrilal8384]

What's up fish tank peoplee😂😂😂

[@MARKluvsAZcards]

Eyyyy

[@katha7375]

That Information about that light for the filter came on point for me, i've just built a pond in my garden and have an alge problem so i can't see the Koi inside and i was thinking about the light for the Filter but was worried about the "good" bacteria in the pond, but now u made it clean for me to get on :) (I'm so sorry about that bad english... I'm from germany...)

[@J-O-H-N]

Katha 737 - I'm from the USA and you speak English better then me =)

[@MarksShrimpTanks]

You are an inspiration Joey !!

[@cobwebscavern2994]

I've been off work recently for while with an illness and have been binge watching your videos this past week as I have decided to get back into the hobby. Your videos have been keeping me sane and reminding me how much I enjoyed when I had fish in the past. Good luck with the gallery.

[@alenaxp]

so happy for you. lucky guy

[@hannahwensing8120]

I'm a girl from Germany watching your videos for I while now. And I have to say, I'm nearly excited as you are🐠 Btw, I was happy to set up my new 10 gallon tank -it has been a big thing for me. Proud of myself😂 Greetings from Germany. Noch mehr von uns hier?:)

[@wishiwasamuffin]

The sheer joy on Joey's face when he wheeled that cart in! He's right, it IS the little things that can make such a difference. I know utility carts have made my life a lot easier while working at my job at the community center. A heck of a lot better than lugging half a dozen tool boxes by hand, that's for sure!

[@cannondale97]

This has got to be my only "can't wait for the next video to be out" channel. Really loving n looking forward to every updates on this aquarium gallery! By the way i feel it's best that you paint the outside of the concrete n the other aquarium stands dark brown in colour instead of black cos brown IMHO just makes the whole environment in the gallery have a more "cozy" feel to it.

[@StevoHoppa]

It's really coming along! The next few weeks should really be exciting! Keep up the good work!

[@KaleidoscopeJunkie]

So happy for your progress (and the cart). Love the Fred Flintstone approach to moving acrylic. I vote for spring loaded steps on castors. They move without pressure but stay in place when someone steps on them. And - Excellent point about UV treated clarity and the lack of damage to beneficial bacteria.

[@hayleylaurenb]

hey joey! I wonder whether you've thought of having a brackish set up in one of your 10 smaller tanks? It's a really underrepresented area of the hobby and would allow you to showcase some slightly more usual fish! It's personally my favourite type of aquarium and really doesn't get the recognition it needs. Loving what you're doing!

[@ball44ball]

Awesome, can't wait for the big tank to be filled with life!

[@LRBaquatics]

Loved the excitement over the utility cart lol it is the little things in life. Keep up the great work!

[@napalmnightlight7353]

Super pumped for the finished product! Keep up the good work Joey.

[@lisakarvonen]

So excited about that little cart :D I have a huge bucket that I have all my supplies in and it's awesome to just have everything at hand, so I can see how a cart would be exciting!

[@paulwuzhere]

Its really coming together. Excellent work!

[@ranchlingger]

i totally get how you feel having the cart. I also have one in my garage. I'm in different factories everyday for work and I use carts all the time and don't think anything of it but there definitely something cool about having one at your house.

[@joshedwards6205]

Joey! If you are worried about algae growth in the big tank then maybe consider building a DIY Macro Algae Reactor. For example, there are many designs for cheato reactors out there. This will allow you to do a few things. The first thing being help mitigate algae in the tank by controlling algae growth elsewhere to out-compete it for the nutrients. You could in theory use this alga once harvested as fish food if you wanted to. The second big reason is it will help stabilize PH, one of the reasons refugiums are usually run on a reverse light cycle from the tank. The third reason is probably the biggest for you; reducing the need for water changes. Since you are decreasing the nutrients in the tank you can go longer between water changes. Those nitrates and phosphates that are usually exported via water change is now being taken up by the controlled growth of algae in your reactor. Plus I kinda want to see you do an algae reactor as a project...

[@owlnite_]

My hype for looking forward for Sunday is Joey's video, Thank you for the wonderful videos. >

[@BachikoiBabi]

I have terrible anxiety. I'm super impatient, I hate waiting for things. I'm always surprised how quickly its all coming together. When I heard that the project would take months to finish I was pretty bummed. I'm glad all of the updates seem to make it fly by.

[@heavymetalspike]

Is it me or was this later than usual? Concerned that Joey had fallen in the cement tank and couldn't climb out. Seriously though - I WAS getting worried that something had happened to Joey!

[@thekingofdiy]

+heavymetalspike Might be late, but I'll never miss a video.

[@heavymetalspike]

No worries as long as you're OK. Given all the work you are doing there's always opportunities for things to go sideways - as they say in the movie - "**it 'appens!" I'm guessing you'd have the approach of Python's "The Black Knight" even then though (Joey gets glued between acrylic panel and tank while examining quality - says "'tis but a scratch"). Keep up the great work bud!

[@cichlids5aquatics140]

OMG AMAZING AQUARIUM

[@thekingofdiy]

Getting real now!

[@mickeybags14]

Joey I love your videos! I look forward to them every Sunday.

[@matarese2868]

This aquarium is one of the most amazing homemade aquariums I've ever seen, you truly do marvelous work

[@miap1092]

I should be studying.... anybody else?

[@iroquoispliskin8791]

yep, I have two midterms this Wednesday.

[@miap1092]

Iroquois Pliskin Good luck 👌🏼

[@iroquoispliskin8791]

Oh don't worry, I take my education very serious but Joey is my weakness.

[@hanzalahp364]

Mimi P. Me 2 lmao

[@CarvedParachute]

Me

[@Xavier_915]

This fish house is going to put the aquarium hobby up a few notches! good job Joey! it will for sure make people want to be part of this awesome hobby!

[@mikecorbett9098]

Sometimes the little things matter the most! Awesome utility cart! 😂

[@codybrovont1276]

The platform idea sounds great!

[@JTBReptiles]

You have really come so far in such a small amount of time! I really look forward to these videos now!

[@TB-il3lo]

looks great. I'm excited to see it complete and the grand tour. keep up the great work.

[@Johnnybravo60025]

I love the childlike giddy you had/have for the cart! I'm completely the same way with weird stuff like that! I was super excited when I discovered that I would need a Brute trashcan on wheels to do saltwater mixing for my SW tank.

[@rulas873]

Joey, you can put a cement ledge on the inside of the panel cavity, flush with the outside of the tank, then you can insert the acrylic panel inside the cavity and the water pressure, along with a gasket, will keep it sealed. Just a suggestion, but either way love your videos. 😃

[@RiverCottageDesigns]

Thanks for being such an inspiration. Really enjoying the updates

[@rudysandoval2532]

Just an idea. What if you were to integrate a bench seat into your wall of tanks around where the outlet is behind the sheets leaning on the wall. Possibly could hide power cords in side a wooden bench same color as your flooring as well. Plus a great lower level view of your tank without having to lean over to peak inside you can sit back in an arch of tanks around you as you gaze into your big tank. Give it more of a gallery feel to sit back and admire your art.

[@nathanc5148]

I'm one of your subscribers that has been inspired by you to get an aquarium and raise fish again! Interested in taking care of more aggressive and advance fish in the future :)

[@aquarist]

I feel you about "the little things" lol, when I got my acclimation container they use in stores, I was so happy lol. I was probably more excited about that then I was about most things for my aquarium. Also, I always called the gallery the "Fish Mansion" lol, because it's so massive and it's more than just a room and I always call the tanks the fish houses, because that's pretty much what a fish tank is. So, fish mansion it was for me lol

[@timwjack]

Awesome tour!! Looks great!!!!!

[@MarineAquariumNovice]

Hey Joey! Dont worry about a pulling force once you get the silicone set, just leave the braces in until you put the water in. The water will push against it and keep it from falling back unless u run a truck into the front lol

[@dynamicgods5628]

just woke up and saw this! so excited!

[@monsterfishmnl810]

Looking good Joey!!! that's a public aquaria grade acrylic!!!

[@thekingofdiy]

+MonsterFish MNL absolutely!!

[@logangraff2734]

Looking great Joey!!! Wouldn't mind a flowerhorn update lol....

[@niltonc.7333]

Wow, I am watching the video and looked into the subs and it shows exactly 400K :) !!! CONGRATS JOEY!!!!

[@MELODYMUNRO]

Just an idea but you could run a track on the aquarium racks that you could attach a camera to for live streams of your aquariums..you could even automate it to move/slide at a slow pace along the track panning past the tanks back and forth along the entire line of the tanks..zero shake.nice and steady......better and safer than having a tripod in the middle of the floor.

[@RandomlyRantful]

It's a work of art, Joey. Honestly. Amazing work.

[@nyxkeres8597]

Glass carry suction cups should work to help you move those panels with a safety catch on a chain. Either way please be very safe they may not look dangerous but it does not take much to loose a limb to those acrylic panels. If you do drill you could always setup carry handles in the holes!

[@MrLossbom]

Really enjoying these update videos to see the progress. Starting to really come together, awesome. Still... Can't wait to see it all finished!

[@thebigds]

That cart! Yessssssss I feel ya joey haha

[@dede3746]

That is amazing! Good job!

[@Jifnei]

I think your focus should not be so much to increase the amount of aquarium hobbyists, but to more so educate the people who just "have a fish tank" or "just a betta fish" or yes maybe want to keep fish at home. There is always a shortage of animals in the world now due to the existence of the human race. And there are so many people in the world who don't truly appreciate the nature and don't truly care about the fish that people keep in aquariums. People think that flushing a goldfish down a drain is such an insignificant thing, but I can see this gallery as being educational for fish keeping in general and increasing the appreciation of the little lives that swim around in our homes and the beauty of it.

[@albinomacedo1503]

Clicked on this so fast, anybody else click on a vide of joey as soon as they see it?

[@thekingofdiy]

+Albino Macedo I do! Can't wait to see what he's going to destroy next! HA!

[@2_busy_groovin]

Albino Macedo every sunday man lol as soon as i get out of church

[@TomTom-tv3hv]

Albino Macedo I've been waiting all day!

[@albinomacedo1503]

The king of DIY even if something goes wrong you're still such an inspiration to people joey :D

[@pecktec]

Albino Macedo it wouldn't be laundry folding day without a Joey video. :)

[@davidlang3222]

It's looking good. I love using the water heater as an under aquarium heater.

[@MaryxLouise]

This is getting real now! So happy and excited for you Joey! Can't wait to see the videos you do in the gallery

[@jpw4130]

I myself can't wait for the 3+ videos a week!

[@fnorespect3714]

Have you ever considered getting a puffer? They cost a TON to feed but they are fun and have diverse personalities

[@Zaku186]

Man this is awesome. you need more subscribers.

[@piranhafish]

very cool :) i am enjoying watching this project taking shape :)

[@MrAjcutter]

This video has made my Sunday 😍😄😃

[@toddhooks6758]

the cart is the icing on the cake😂😂😂 got to love the little things... can't wiat to see everything when your done

[@ThatGirlYouKnow97]

He's so excited about a utility cart- adorable

[@rongardner1012]

Pretty insane project. Good luck, will follow.

[@zarekgoeken3612]

Joey, make that back part a waterfall, it'll look amazing, and the rocks could act has a natural filter, collecting small particals, but that could also put air in the tank, itll have alot of benefits

[@praveenbhanot8712]

Excellent work Joey, thanks for all the help and guidance over the years. I will also have to let go of this hobby for a year or maybe 3 as I am moving to a different country to start afresh. I will be watching your channel regularly though to keep the spirit alive.

[@wotrulke5868]

A great update on the fish gallery, good luck for the future, 👍

[@RonanC]

I remember you talking about how you wanted more variety in driftwood and decor for the wall. I've got access to a whole bunch of Ashe Juniper driftwood and various types of limestone and flint, I can ship if your interested.

[@GeorgeFarmerStudios]

Incredible.

[@thekingofdiy]

+George Farmer Thanks George!

[@bellastead1925]

Love it! lot's of hard work, but so worth it!

[@rakesht8390]

all the best for your projects

[@rj9959]

As I imagined what this wall of tanks will look like, I realized that you must have the best wife in the world to allow you to follow your hobby to this extent. Most wives would complain about one or two tanks! But I suppose it's not just a hobby at this point; It's a lifestyle!

[@daModder100HD]

If your wife or SO is telling you how to live YOUR life you're in the wrong relationship.

[@ram07ish]

The Aquarium looks bullet proof. Literally.

[@thekingofdiy]

+ram07ish it technically is.

[@Julian-mi4hx]

I learn so Much of the aquarium gallery series!!!

[@johnpeckham6119]

Looks good Joey. Can't wait to see the progress

[@Rhasphody]

I pray that you're preparing for a before and after video when everything is done, because man this is awesome!

[@angelmika2010]

keep up the good work. its coming along nicely

[@benallen2793]

Have you ever thought of a sliding pannel on the top on the big tank and a lid? easy and secure for you fish and besides it would be really cool!

[@parrotfishguy]

Definitely put the steps and platform there! Hahaha and the cart is sweet.

[@shaynehall9172]

So excited for the progress! Can't wait until next week!

[@dijnnx]

Can't wait to be driven around on that cart. It should definitely have a camera mounted on it! :P

[@aquaticpimp]

its all coming together. its gonna look amazing.

[@jaydenxguitar9175]

put the stairs and platform in joey it will help you greatly, maybe go all the way around the back and have set of "trap doors" that go to the ball valves and essential pipes :)

[@xtobyx2750]

I love your channel!!

[@isopodmike2204]

It's looking good joey! Excited for the final product. Keep it up.

[@jamesd6920]

utility cart a must!

[@sharonjraj8080]

great job joey...love to see the progress....but i doubt those 2 lights wont be enough for those huge tanks to lit up....🙂🙂

[@intothesands]

seriously man, this build is just amazing, cant wait for it to finish... that is like my dream house right there lol

[@gamingbluemoon]

Platform sounds like a good idea! Would be cool to make boxes with a trapdoor in it to store equipment in there!

[@fastfolky]

That big tank is going to be great, but to be honest, i'm looking forward to the wall of tanks more. So much content to look forward to!

[@curtisbridgen1493]

Can't say anything but AWESOME! !!

[@green3760]

This is awesome! looking forward to updates

[@АлексейКлимов-б4л]

Nice job! Bravo 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@smithr32907]

love the idea of the stairs and platform

[@rangeb2724]

You might have to build some sort of bracing or temporary frame work on the bottom of the acrylic panel to help to elevate it, and once cured take the frame work out and place the sealant

[@_deadspiderlilys5331]

The king of diy you make me smile :)

[@michaelmitchell7797]

God bless you brother..... looks absolutely amazing!

[@katie12x]

So exciting seeing this coming along :D I think that platform would look much better!

[@davidbatzos9416]

That peninsula tank would be way cooler if it was a reef tank. Just imagine sitting at your desk looking at it. Think about it😜

[@babyslushy9315]

LOVE YOU JOEY !!! I cant wait until everything is finished !! its looking amazing !! keep it up i believe in you

[@fishkingoutdoorsman730]

Awesome video keep up the good work

[@jamesjohnstone555]
