OVER 30 FISH ADDED to the saltwater algae AQUARIUM! - The king of DIY

[@capeeddy]

I love the variety. So many colors and shapes. Please keep it as is for a couple years so we can see everything in their adult colors.

[@michealledoux603]

The salt water tank looks awesome. I cant wait to see the progress of it as the fish grow. I enjoy and look forward to each and every video. Thanks.

[@sandyloyst1811]

I love this salt tank Joey. It is fun listening to you describe colors. This algae is so beautiful. As for the selection of fish, perfect. So lively yet peaceful, I could watch it for hours.

[@piv9976]

the tank looks amazing, I like the algea reminds me of when I went snorkeling in Croatia and the entire sea bottom was an algea meadow. It was magical

[@joshlegrant4859]

Love the fish density in this aquarium!

[@noelmangion6316]

Hi joey the salt water tank is looking nice and i love the fish you stocked it with can’t wait to see your next video 😊

[@Destroy1571]

That’s 100% the best tank av seen you have in your fish room. Nice and simple & look lovely 💙💙

[@federicovenezia8616]

Loving this tank so far, and the small fish is great!!!

[@fishwateraquatics]

It’s a good day when the king of DIY posts! I’ve been watching you for a few years, keep up the good work! I’ve been keeping aquariums for 9 years and you have inspired me to make my own fish KZbin channel. Thanks for the motivation, you are the best for real!

[@stacyjohnson42]

This is only my 2nd time watching you i think you done a great job at picking out the fish your tank is beautifully done and all the fish are popping i like the pink and yellow fish, the cleaning wrasse but my favorites are the fire fish and the blue chromis i love how you have waves in your tank cool tank indeed ❤️🐠🐟🦀

[@josephgadway8950]

All the fish you chose are perfect. They are gorgeous. Thank you!

[@filiplaskovski9993]

I love these kind of raw videos even if it’s messing around with sponges it’s always fun to watch

[@hdemetri]

I love this unique take to saltwater. The fish and invertebrates you chose are awesome. I have a 160 gallon and almost 4 months into my first saltwater experience. This is far more addicting than freshwater but I still won't give up my freshwater tanks. I look forward to seeing how your system develops. Good luck!

[@alexandernichols7454]

Beautiful aquarium! You should give us a video of just that tank and fish interacting in it like you used to do with some of the other tanks.

[@davezxtt]

tank looks great, i like the having more but small fish that make it look fun to watch rather than a few big ones that dont do much moving about.

[@stevetopper7144]

Hi Joey, Sweet set up. The Coral Beauty Angel is my favorite. I tried salt water a half dozen years ago and now I’m pumped to try again.

[@tbaloni]

That tank looks awesome I like that you gave those fish a lot of room to swim around in and the. Branch rock is also really nice for cover since there isn’t any branch coral in there

[@icegypsy99]

The tank is beautiful Joey. Actually surprised at how beautiful the cleaner Wrasse is. Always thought they were sort of a grey / black. This guy's got some gorgeous blues in him. Look forward to seeing this tank mature.

[@ramibadreddine]

tank turned out looking nice!

[@SierraJenson4]

That tank is gorgeous!

[@CeboAquatics]

good vid joey. I say show all the odd /weird tricks you have done along the way... I now most of us have tried just about everything along the way. haha

[@hookedonprjonrojas2314]

🥰I’ve found a new love 😍 great community reef. Don’t get it twisted, if you take your time to watch these tiny fish, they have great personalities

[@zsworld6609]

I dig this tank 100% . i haven't wanted to go salt, but this inspires me

[@JakeDogg-RIP]

My sicce sincra silent pump has been running perfectly in my saltwater nano for 1 year straight, cleaned it once, no issues, super quiet, and good price for the base model pump, the Bluetooth pumps with extra features do get pricey, but are luxury products, and the pumps on their own work perfect! 👌

[@metsdynastyx]

Hi @jakeDogg-RIP if you want to prolong life of the pump, you can give it a bath in citric acid. Also Sicce makes a pump cleaner have a feeling it’s more expensive than citric acid but if you run it in a bucket of freshwater and either option it cleans up nicely. You can run it for around an hour. In a pinch you can use white distilled vinegar but some say it can mess with the pump. But any of these options will do a good job decalcifying and cleaning.

[@JakeDogg-RIP]

@@metsdynastyx I just used some vinegar ;) same thing basically, gets rid of the calcium build up anyway 👊🍻

[@MadeleinFletcher]

I love the simple, Lively, small beautiful fish!

[@Cichlid_4_ever]

Keep it up I’m not equipped with enough knowledge for salt water but I sure do love them!!

[@dianewurzer]

Great looking salt water tank.😊

[@frankcapel4557]

Team, king and queen of DIY awesome video Joey always love the content weather is freshwater or saltwater. Keep up the great work whether it’s the gallery Queen Cove it’s all good see you on the next one buddy

[@w01f9ack8]

Hey joey the tank is looking awesome as always great fish selection💯👍 i actually had the same problem with the hosing when i just built my stock tank/tote pond, If youre able to get you hands on one I'd definitely recommend an uponor gun they have some cheap hand operated ones i think but the battery ones are awesome

[@aquarium.talktv]

I’d say the watchman goby for sure. Hopefully the pistol shrimp finds it. I love the fire fish too.. cleaner wrasse is dope too. Loving this new tank setup and the excitement of the aquarium. Looking incredible!!! I need a setup like this! Awesome video bro! 💪🔥

[@IceB3rg]

tank looks great, I love that you went for the smaller peaceful fish. You should try adding some leather coral, they are super easy to care for too. Some fighting conch will clean your sand bed and eat all those diatoms.

[@hagenhilldesign]

Katie's favorite is the Goby. Jake's is the Cleaner Wrasse. But it was hard for us to choose. The shrimp and crabs are super cool.. a very close second. Awesome tank Joey. Can't wait to see it develop.

[@eddyortiz8110]

Very nice looking tank . Get some sand sifting starfish for the substrate and Blue & Red leg Hermit crabs.

[@joshreagan1487]

Love that tank, so much color & activity.

[@richardpeatfield4497]

Sicce are awesome pumps. Use them on my 225 and 180 very quiet and efficient.

[@FoodaFIISH]

Super excited for this tank!

[@achevsyed6858]

Great selection Of new fish Looks great Blessings and good luck Enjoy From beautiful California

[@jlo3688]

BEST TIPS ....Love your experience and honesty

[@Brianhahahaha]

Cool video Joey I love your salt water tank. I would love to set up a small salt water tank but I don't know much about it I know just look it up but it still looks complicated

[@ManCaveReef]

that is exactly how I motivate myself on keep on going, shopping for new fish/corals.

[@3qssmokedribsbbq588]

The Watchman Goby and apisto shrimp is a good choice. Try a Dragonet it is a nice Red and White colorful bottom feeder. And a Star Blenny.

[@johnruta2558]

Joey love the tank love your can't wait for the 20 ft tank to be done

[@susanburnett6123]

I really love the smaller fish that school. I like the fact that you have friendly fish that get along. I’m like you I love the liveliness.

[@blax45]

This really finally tops the rainbow setup you did imo. First time i am appealed to a salt water tank

[@jonas2431]

You can Also add the pods when the lights are off. Beautiful tank sir

[@Darkslide2AR-FE]

love the way you stocked that saltwater tank Joey.

[@waynelai86]

Absolutely love it, this is what I want just small fishes that look beautiful with different colours ❤❤❤

[@JAMsponge]

Have you thought of trying the app controllable coloured home light bulbs on your tanks? I haven’t seen anyone on KZbin use these yet and I can’t understand why… they are cheap, easy to use and the effects and moods you can create are awesome fun and especially as you already have the home downlighting style fixtures.

[@karaleeann1211]

You need a few more of the black and white ones, super cool!❤❤❤

[@andrewkotula1018]

The syncra silent pumps are amazing pumps!

[@clyde1855]

Hi from South Africa Joey, tank looks absolutely stunning.

[@Starship007]

Awesome selection

[@shel.b.1090]

It looks amazing joey. Xxx

[@dubeewolf]

You should add a sand sifting starfish. They're great because they turn the sand over burying the cyno and they stay small.

[@Brazuken]

Should add some conch to help keep your sand clean. When your tank matures im sure some starfish and clams would look awesome in there.

[@jeffharris4558]

Love the way this tank is turning out, really beautiful ❤

[@metsdynastyx]

Hi Joey - it’s a beautiful tank. That’s a large spike in bioload adding them all at one time. Also you should try to get a rodi system. Please keep an eye on nitrate and if you have it check ammonia too. I know they told you that these are all peaceful fish but I’d just note that damsels and dottybacks can be aggressive and territorial. So just keep an eye out for that as well. It looks like you may have added Anthias. Keep in mind they need to be fed several times a day. Also I know you said you want a copperband, but they are very tough fish to keep. You may want to wait a while and make sure this group settles in before you add it. Also you may want to get a microscope and confirm that’s cyano and not the dreaded Dinos. If either you want to stay on top of it and Syphon out as you see it. Best advice I’d share is research, research, research. Good luck mate!

[@MartinGodfrey-ns6lu]

00p

[@pedroluisroman1263]

I would say to cultivate a healthy amount of Copepods like the Tiggers... I would suggest adding some type of Refugium. But as you are making this a bit of a "Planted" aquarium then this should help some. I would have added the Coppies at night though and also double or tripled the population introduced personally. Damsels are NOTORIOUS for being territorial but, this is Joey and he does things his way.. which is kinda the point. 1st rule in aquarium keeping. What works for one person doesn't necessarily work for the next!

[@bryceanderson1703]

Bro dudes had fish for years I'm sure he doesn't need u as a nobodys 2 cents worth or advise lmfao. You gonna tell the president how do do his job next 😂😅

[@colby4027]

@@bryceanderson1703joey says he doesn’t need rodi only because he is on a well. Which is not true at all. I think he could use some advice

[@bryceanderson1703]

@apple-ej4zt we all watch the same videos there bud so since u added ur 2 cents you don't think a Freshwater expert would do the research before there Rocket Scientist.

[@ozzman31982]

Flasher wrasse are really cool and colorful

[@MrMittenshasatophat]

I would love to see a freshwater variant of this same setup. Having a river setup with the same flow would be very cool. The question is, what fresh water fish would thrive in such an environment? If anyone is capable of setting up something like that it is you.

[@nik7183]

I love this tank full of smaller fish, they’re all stunning. I do love the cleaner wrasse and goby, also those blue chromis and the purple and orange anthias? How about some purple firefish?

[@felipeu9030]

Hey Joey great tank, if you're looking for cleanup crew members i recommend adding a few fighting conchs, astera snails, marginella snails, and tectus snails. You'll need them sooner rather than later when the diatom outbreak hits.

[@Reefingaddiction]

The way you do saltwater is why you can't keep coral, but that's OK. You do you. 😊

[@MonicaWells-j8w]

Oh man. I love watch you and your tanks. Great ending to a busy day

[@legionaquatics]

I never really wanted a saltwater tank with coral but THIS! This is how I would want my saltwater tank to be, I love the macro algae all around the rocks and the normal daylight bulbs instead of those blue coral lights. To me this reminds of nature more then the standard reef tank and if I ever set up a salty tank I'll do something similar to this! beautiful tank joey!

[@Hhhhhmbd]

But the fish he put in that tank want Coral some even life in corals

[@justinmccain1896]

❤ the density in your Immese glass box keep the great you work Mr Joey Dyi . I don't blame you for not having large species of fish like King Angelfish. Not every marine aquarium needs dramatize pictures. It's OK 👌 to have smaller fish like Damsels. Same thing with freshwater no big guys and gails. Just nonos! They 🚀 out in spece. 😊😊😊😊❤.

[@marianamator4171]

Pięknie to wyglada❤❤❤

[@krasimirangelov3315]

Amazing tank....😮😊

[@josgraha]

you know i'm so obsessed with corals and coral growth, i never really appreciated how nice the macro algae looks with that branching rock and the stocking plan looks great. the most agressive guy you have in there is that little damsel haha

[@coleevans1414]

Awesome tank !

[@lizzyanthus1]

I love the variety in the tank. Makes me think of a reef, with all different kinds of fish swimming around. Looks natural that way, I think anyhow. My favorite fish, I think they are the flame ones, I forget their name now. Beautiful colors though. Oh, what is "branch rock"? I've never seen it before. I love it! Can it go in fresh water tanks as well? Thanks for the video, very interesting and informative, as usual.

[@TravisYager]

“Every time I go to the city, I get crabs!” - Joey M. This was almost as good as when you offered to take us behind your shed so we can see your wood… Almost! 😂

[@falcolf]

I really want to do a system like this someday, gorgeous tank!

[@GodisTruth914]

I love it!!!! I think it's an awesome tank!!!!!!😊😊😊

[@MarshallAquatics]

Great tank! Sand sifting Gobies would do great in your tank.

[@ahmedamair8570]

Joey. In every video we need a glimpse of arowana. In literally every video we need it.

[@TheNathansblog]

Lovely variety of fish

[@calvinbasilio9331]

I love the fish, i cant wait til you get some larger fish for this tank!

[@jeremymeyler8980]

I've always wanted to take a large saltwater tank and just have small fish. Looks GREAT!! what's the plant? Sargasm?

[@StephaN..187]

What are your thoughts on using rooibos tea in aquariums?

[@DuginVoltair]

Try looking for a pygmy flameback angel. One of my favorite fish in my tank. The purple/blue and orange is beautiful. When my lights are turning off he basically goes pure black. Just an idea for one other show fish. Although I still love the coral beauty. Hard to find in Ontario though...

[@TerraMagnus]

Chitons and fighting conch would be good additions to the cleanup crew. Maybe a tridacna clam (just do yourself a favor and put it on a rock so it doesn’t glue itself to the aquarium floor)

[@vincentvanniekerk5282]

Still can't believe how big your channel got, was with you since you had a couple of thousand sub like 300K

[@estonking5671]

I love the long videos ❤❤

[@serenityprojects7364]

Oh my gosh yes you should get that yellow angelfish. It was so so amazing plus with that Gobi being yellow. I think it would bring a little bit of yellow in the tank and just look so amazing.

[@peterliu3601]

Hey! Must say it is just an amazing tank, but here is a little suggestion hahah will you add a bit of anemone for the clown fish? It will be so beautiful to see them swim around an anemone ❤❤

[@draven86]

And yet again i didn't even noticed that you were on a break. Maybe all the other content on KZbin distracted me (btw the tank looks great)

[@tesusreef2625]

Looks good! I think a few acropora colonies or even one in the midst of the algae would be beautiful. Smaller fish (im sure for the chromis) may take to it as shelter like they do in the wild, and the behavior would be really nice to see

[@Myfishchronicle]

Hey Joey I’m considering getting to saltwater can you make video on how to, for beginners; great tank keep it up love it because of the simplicity of it

[@stanger42069]

Where do you get your big tanks ? And btw that tank how u have it set up with the small fish and seaweed on bottom is awesome 👏

[@LuisAlvarado-yp8kr]

The carbon pads won’t affect plants?

[@jasonhunt5899]

Hi Joey what your first impression of the temu filter

[@tbow9848]

should get some Pearly Jawfish, similar to the yellow watchman, white and teal

[@rockinroberta]

This was an awesome awesome video thank you very much

[@jeromehorn7333]

Love this tank!

[@kennethgriffin9770]

Gorgeous as always! What’s the name of this macro algae? I know you’ve said it before but I couldn’t track it down.

[@Ilostmyschmungus]

When the tank gets way more established you should get a sand sifting Diamond Goby! idk if you know about them but they are amazing characters

[@nathanhull4472]

Six line wrasse and a yellow tang would be my suggestion. Tangs love algae and yellows are eye catching.

[@ricahaurymn]

Joey, have ever thought of adding shellfish filter feeder like an oyster, scallop or barnacle? Was thinking a small colony of barnacles could populate the branch stone.

[@benflavell500]

I love the tips and tricks they help alot lol

[@elrapper13]

I think I saw a naoko's fairy wrasse in there. Totally recommend! They are really fun and it’d be a nice addition
