Lol at 11:12 a yellow tang is following a stingray's tail like it's a worm. So cute and funny!

You gotta see this tank in person. completely fascinating!

Joey have you ever thought of setting up a second channel with just a camera and no sound on each of the tanks so poeple can just set this on their TV and just enjoy your tanks even if they are not there?

[@segretodiscusadventure664]

Alex, that’s a cool idea! A different tank every day 🤔

[@soulfirre]

You need to get a Moray Eel!! If you can get your hands on a Dragon Morey eel, it would compliment your tank so well!

[@vinibassi123]

Do you think about adding some coral to this reef? It would look phenomenal! Love!

[@morevidzz1961]

Just wanted to say how much I appreciate your video a couple years back about your past. Similar situation here.. I'm 26 now and aquasacping has kept me inside and really dedicated to something for the first time in a while. Hobbies in general can be literal life savers. I'm glad you were able to turn yours into something productive, you're absolutely killing it. Keep doing you my man. Absolutely gorgeous tanks by the way! Your fish look happy and healthy.

[@MrSnipesquid]

Dont move kevin, he looks good in the 370 and really stands out amongst all the other fish. He just really balances out the stocking.

[@CoralVueTV]

You can hear the happiness in your voice when you talk about this tank. We are looking forward to seeing more of your salty side!

[@imnozcR]

1:29 lol'd at the yawn of the puffer!

[@unusualaquariumecosystems5805]

I think a giant crab would look interesting in one of the tanks.

[@LuizNunes74]

It's hard to watch a saltwater tank video, and then go back to my freshwater. Then I think about the expenses and I'm happy again.

just saying... a newly stocked tank should always be the “favorite”, otherwise you’re not doing it right

[@thekingofdiy]

wellllll... the REAL problem is this... this isn't all that NEW to me, just you guys. its been my fav for months. this isnt normal. im worried. I dont wanna be a saltwater scrub... send help.

[@NanRotix]

Joey, get some corals bro! I love it that you're doing saltwater!

[@graysonwolf5186]

The simple scape really draws attention to the fish's swimming. Love seeing them dart in and out of the rocks - especially from the wider shots. It's like living art.

[@sameerabdali8059]

Salt water tanks look amazing especially with how crisp they are. For the other tank, I'm torn between keeping it angelfish dominated because I love angels but Kevin and Tyrese interacting would also be amazing to see. Really not sure but I'm excited to see whatever happens!

[@brennan519]

I think the salt puffer in the big tank is way cooler than alone.

[@justinsharp3506]

Joey watch out for the clown trigger and puffer with your stingrays! They will eat them or at least pick on them!

[@EricKonkol]

It's nice that the camera is staying on the fish for more than a second! I'd like to see more videos filmed like this.

[@Loveofpets]

The tank is looking good!

[@IndNationalist]

Joey just a suggestion for Puffers and Stingrays you can feed them shrimps with the shrimp skin on. This would help them with the munching they need to do and also provide calcium a must for puffers.

[@WealthyFirefighter]

The tanks are looking super good Joey! The gallery has never been better

[@rayjza9033]

you should get a Zebra Moray. They're fierce looking, calm, and they don't eat fish. Their diet is mostly crustaceans, like shrimp. It will look perfect in the 370, or the 120 with the puffer

[@marksmith566]

This was a really good one, I admit as a Reefer I was skeptical about your choices but it as come together quite nicely, would still like to see you do a reef tank with corals, critters and smaller fish like gobbies and wrasse etc. Would be cool and provide a lot of content to see it slowly come together and grow over time but yeah really liked this one, excellent 👌👍

[@driesmokum7334]

You should put some corals in it, it looks like an ocean graveyard. The fish are great though

375 is next level awesome. I never thought anything would top the rainbow fish and pearl ray, but this tops it. Looks amazing

[@ryanforsyth344]

1:28 the puffer yawning is adorable

[@drdurso3114]

That tank is stunning. To me, there's two approaches: the articstic one and the natural one. Your tank is beautiful and natural. Sure, a spotless glass bottom and artfully done rock work looks nice too. Just doesn't look real to me. It's more of a 'display item' as opposed to fish keeping to me. At the other end of the spectrum from your beautiful tank are those FREAKISHLY deep-blue/UV colored tanks full of corals that are the equivelant to glo fish. Those tanks only look 'nice' using a filter on a camera, and then they just look like a 1970s era 'black light room'. I know. I was there. I'm a boomer. lol. I want a salt water tank in my living room. Not an intense blue glowing blob that looks like an exposed nuclear ractor core. Thanks Joey. Remember: no BRS BS allowed please

[@daronoch5779]

11:17 : "when they get into a preys mouth" Im pretty sure you mean predator :)

[@DarrenBecker]

I ran mine the same way I ran my freshwater tank as well. It worked GREAT until I started getting coral. Then it changed quite a bit and then I had to start testing the water parameters. But those sponge bricks are FREAKING AMAZING! I honestly forget what brand they are because I've been using them and haven't replaced them EVER. What I would recommend instead of sucking water out of the actual tank I would suck it out of the sump system. That is what I did. I had everything automatic with dosage pumps. Once a week it would suck out x-amount of water and put it into my waste jug and then once that pump sector was done the new water pump would automatically kick in. I did it during the week so that I would be home and as soon as it was done I would test the water parameters and 99% of the time it was spot on. Sometimes I had to add calcium or some other stuff which I had on dosing pumps as well I would just hit a button on the pump and it would dose. I really miss my saltwater tank and I wish I could have another one. Maybe someday when I have a place of my own...

[@fioontje1999]

1:28 did he just.. yawn?

[@colleenh8365]

You should put some easy beginner corals in the tank! You could stick with the beginning fishkeeper theme, while adding more variety and color to the tank. And as a plus, you could teach your viewers a thing or two about keeping coral! Just an idea... Anyway, I love your vids, keep up the good work and continue to inspire people like me!!🙂

[@daronoch5779]

this tank looks soooooo much better with the substrate.

[@afonso1816]

Starting to build my gallery this week! Im setting up my second fish tank this week (The first one is a betta tank, and the second one will be a shrimp tank. I know, not impressive at all, but you got to start with the beginner stuff so you don’t mess up). And the livestock of my first DIY terrarium (Springtails, which are small enough insects to thrive on my small terrarium and can be fed to my betta too) are arriving this week too. We all got to start our fish room somewhere, and this week ill stop being just a one-fish-owner, to a aqua-terrarium gallery owner. Im really psyched! And the best part of all of this is that all of these new things only costed me around 200 reais (the Brazilian currency) or 40 dollars. I know that you don’t have the time to read and answer all the comments of your videos joey, but if you could... you know, acknowledge my comment, i would be really glad. Cause im pretty proud of what im starting this week, and I value your opinion, as i value your videos: A lot!

[@hannah5083]

Awakened Qanon octopods can only be kept in species tanks

[@PinkBlue_Spood]

They don’t make the best pets. Pretty much every species besides the giant pacific octopus lives less than a year. They are extremely shy and hard to observe, as well as extremely good escape artists. You rarely know what age you’ll be receiving and it’s common for people to get a full grown octopus that dies of old age after 2-3 months. Like the other person said, a species only tank is necessary.
