2,000G aquarium goes 3D! | The king of DIY

[@ChimeraKnight]

I think someone got some inspiration from the reptarium

[@varanidguy]

Looks like your visit to Brian really inspired you. lol

[@chytryvigor6322]

I think you got inspired by Brian's Reptarium ;) Keep up the good work man, regards from Poland

[@lisajligon]

..."black, grey, and beige, the most common colors of rocks".... Yes Joey, rocks and colorblind people! -Love from Missouri

[@nathanbutler8240]

Depends on the rock quarts is bone white, granite has a mixture of colors.lava rocks being red. Geods having purple and white crystals

[@JungleScene]

somebody was inspired from a certain reptile gallery in detroit.... This is gonna be pretty cool!

[@LionChavez]

Reptile zoo and Brian B inspired? Cool stuff!

[@winterume]

Lion Chavez thought about it too!

[@mucoemre3305]

At this point I am actually worried if Joe still spends enough time with his family

[@celtic2642]

Muco Emre more than me going to work for 9/10 hours a day

[@mucoemre3305]

@@celtic2642 isn't Joe working as well??

[@ChrisShyam]

@@celtic2642 bro im at school for 8 hrs every day

[@mucoemre3305]

I asked if he has a Job besides KZbin........

[@savedatmoney4813]

Someone liked brian barczyk 3D look.

[@mysweetdave]

I needed a Joey video today, it brought a smile to my face after a sad weekend. Thank you! I can't wait to watch this come to completion!

[@ryan39364]

You should "3D" the inner sections of the viewing windows as well, to make it look like the entire concrete structure is rock. Carve it lower towards the back as to not interfere with viewing and make it look like the rock rounds off there, like its just a rock within the tank that ends where the window starts.

[@bradkeenan5262]

Maybe a little bit of influence from Brian? 😂

[@user-pt1cz4ot1e]

Got some ideas when you went to visit Brian, didn’t you? 😊 Those rocks and trees do look amazing, so I can’t wait to see what yours turns out like. I think, definitely go thicker toward the corners and base. That will look awesome.

[@MrMetalChris]

Trip to Brian's was inspiring then? ;) it'll look great I'm sure! If you do it for the pond it'll look good but it would look better if there was a window on the other pond. :)

[@kirstennicole6212]

Looks like you got inspired at the reptarium ;-)

[@alicardova6243]

You should 3D the whole fish room, as you walk in it looks like ur in a actual fish tank. With wood stumps with large rocks coming out the walls and connecting to the 2000g. Real life water on the ceiling so if ur looking up you think your under water. Plants everywhere ... Dude that's what u should do!

[@themurrrr]

Typical Joey: please ignore that mess, I’m working on something. I am so envious, not just of your mad skills, but your seemingly endless amount of energy!!!! Daaaaamn

[@chandrasmith4722]

I'm not surprised. I saw your reaction to the reptarium. I think it is cool you are DIYing it. Keep the extra and do the whole room in an underwater scape.

[@diyanfonseka]

I see Brians Reptarium inspired you to do this ;D hahaha

[@aljeroong7871]

Wow! Were you inspired by Brian's Reptile Zoo??

[@ryankersell2505]

Bud...... You need a bigger gallery 😂😂😂

[@justine8398]

Right!!! so he can get that school of sharks with laser beams on their heads as he always wanted LOL =P

[@garrett3108]

Glad you're trying something new! I know exactly what you were thinking of when you had this idea; Bryan's new reptile zoo, and while I love how neat your gallery looks, it'll certainly be interesting to see it in a new light!

[@kelsiejo1743]

I think Joey got inspiration from his recent travels... 😉

[@thepit9844]

Brians new🐊🐢🐍🐉 zoo!!! I'm so happy for him

[@ryanstaggs1575]

Dude this is going to be awesome cant wait keep us updated

[@NeoTechOps]

I know you don't like messing with plants too much Joey, but some holes for succulents and small plants would make some cool accents for the new design!

[@Littlewings1211]

Nikita's Tech Ops succulents and maybe some heathers (not sure how easy they would be to get in Canada) because they don’t need a lot of attention and water etc but would look great scattered around the “rocks”

[@NeoTechOps]

@@Littlewings1211 my thoughts exactly. Let's hope Joey sees this!

[@buddhikasrinarayana8322]

I call this “Reptarium Effect” 😃🙆🏼‍♂️ This will looks amazing

[@jonathandefoy6376]

Brian is inspiring you!

[@Jearch05]

Why do the exterior now? I thought you were going to expand the 2k gallon out the side? Now you will have to redo the exterior after the long term expansion of the 2k. Love your work, and im sure it will look awesome with the decor, but seems silly to me to do it now.

[@nandamari]

Inspired by Brian's reptarium, eh? I like the tank as is, so the focus is on the fish. But it's your tank. Let your creativity shine! 👍🏽

[@MegaSmiley]

I'm excited. I think this is going to look awesome!

[@Oxymiocysu]

It seems like somebody got inspired by the reptarium. 😉 I bet it'll look great!

[@fabikerscher259]

i love about your videos that you‘re basically hyped like a kid on christmas every time you start a new project! You rarely see that amount of enthusiasm. Keep that!

[@paulcooper1819]

Wonder why

[@paulcooper1819]

I would love to have his energy

[@shea8102]

brian has his reptarium, when do we get joeys aquarium??? petition for it to start here lmao

[@B-Bandit70]

I think Joey got inspired by Brians new reptarium😁 I think it will look awesome on the aquariums. 👌

[@Anything_With_An_Engine]

I agree with this 👍

[@shipfusarelaifu]

Personality I liked how it looked already. But I'm excited to see how it turns out.

[@venomix_9721]

A little inspiration from Brians Rapterium? ;)

[@eddiediederich7244]

I guess we'll have to see how it turns out. I personally think its kind of goofy. Its Styrofoam, you know how many times your carrying something in and out of that gallery? It's going to get bumped and shredded all the time. Especially if you choose to do 2-3 layers of that 1 1/2 inch stuff... Idk man. I'm going to keep following of course, but in my opinion, it's a little strange. But hell, worst case you have another video of removing it and re-painting it. Happy days.

[@mikewall3534]

You should consider hanging plastic plants around some walls of the gallery or corners of walls . It would really help to bring nature into the gallery.

[@celtic2642]

mike wall I agree plants in the aquarium room near the pond would look great

[@YonzyTV]

plastic plants =/ nature

[@Maibulsak]

nothing screams nature quite like plastic

[@andrewwyer5939]

Needless to say you got a little inspired from the Reptarium? Good luck Joey, gonna look sweet 👌🏼

[@DaniOnDemand]

I'm currently thinking... "wtf has he just done" .. I just can't visualize the end result though lol. I'm sure it'll look awesome Joey!

[@jasonwalkes1252]

Turtle pond has you wanting to nice your stuff up more now😂.. good stuff

[@whitneybenne9360]

would much rather see the last 2 tanks finished then all of this work. 2000g looked cool enough already

[@Timothy_Andrews]

Joey, you always say you're not good aqua scaper, but you actually are. I can't wait to see how this comes out.

[@ritesha8050]

U got inspired by all the backgrounds from the reptarium

[@jamescabotaje6387]

is this inspired by Brian's cage outer designs in the reptarium?

[@ALRimNext]

Joey did u get this idea from Brians Reptile Place?

[@DesiredCE]

I see you took some notes from Brian's Zoo.

[@RudeAwakening1971]

Joey, you’ve been bitten by Brian’s exterior tank decoration. Unlike you, Brian probably spent $$$ in the thousands for his deco.

[@trevorkessro4528]

This is really cool, I just recently started watching and have become a huge fan immediately.... Can't wait to see the end result!!!

[@LA3ARO]

I think this is probably heavily influenced by that reptarium, that place was amazingly decorated

[@RoGuExPaNcAkE]

Like bob Ross said “Happy Mistakes.” It’s not the end of the world if you put too much paint or the wrong swoop of the brush. Same with the foam.🤘🏻love this channel more and more I swear

[@menaurchief]

Joey, just an advice for future, you might need to open the pond side of the 2000G. why don't you just paint it to match the rest of the aquarium and let it be ready for a possible future makeover of 2000G?

[@ryanwakebradtelle8682]

How are you supposed to expand the 2100 gallon if it's covered in styrofoam?

[@John_micheal]

RyanWake bradtelle he said it could be easily removed

[@thekingofdiy]

Take it off and expand it.

[@ryanwakebradtelle8682]

Do you think you would rescape the outside after you expand?

[@CuteNaAstig]

The Bowzer's tank inspired you to do this :)

[@nickybijvelds4224]

inspiration from the reptile guy love it

[@gretahunt4401]

It's going to great to see the process!

[@a.d3410]

Nice idea, by the way with all this insulation, wont this affect the temperature of the water inside the tank?

[@Dkosterable]

I think it's absolutely fabulous. I think ^^ you got some inspiration on your trip. I can't wait to see the follow up!

[@michaeljohnston4167]

Totally not Inspired by Bryan Barzchech from BHB reptiles and the reptarium BTW. (However his name is spelled)

[@matthewmeyerj]

This project is going to be totally sick! I’m excited 😆

[@daddyaravin1787]

Love it!!!!👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@HajongLee]

and i thought he said he’s not a good aquascaper. what the heck he just makes his own 3D aquascape. and they used to look absolutely phenomenal!

[@rachela2727]

Seeing Brian's gave you a kick in the ass huh

[@robertward6813]

Totally same thing as I thought lol

[@Maibulsak]

in a bad way

[@richardportelli1983]

construction adhesive is not silicone, it is super strong glue used in building construction. Trying to remove it once cured is very difficult. the concrete render would be very hard to clean up!

[@annaburtenheim5310]

Someone jelouse of Brian? 🤣😋

[@MiguelAyako]

I'm a be closely following these project ;) @The king of DIY Good Luck you really gonna need it... a lot to carve there... ;)

[@nancycampbell6800]

Thanks Joey, this is just what I've been craving, a real DIY project.

[@stresn43]

Can’t wait to See the finished product! You are so funny, you get so excited! I love your energy.

[@learningtofishkeep665]

Let’s see how this turns out! Can’t wait!!

THE KING OF DIY RILLY IS THE KING

[@jaidanjaidanm]

I am super excited to see where you go with this Joey!! It's definitely inspiring..

[@quartzgrace1816]

Anyone else concerned the "rocks" he wants at the bottom could be a tripping hazard?

[@HalfARooster]

yes JOEY is a fast moving person

[@Littlewings1211]

I was but it depends on how thick he puts the foam. If he only uses 3 layers or so then it should be ok. If not we should request a blooper reel at the end of the year - just a ton of clips of him falling on his ass and Frank laughing at him 😂

[@Epic_videos_ytube]

Will look fantastic when finished , no pressure 🤓😂

[@chimpthereefer]

It’ll be interesting to see what design you come up with. Carving out rocks or wood should look pretty cool. Maybe have the top horizontal span like a log and the vertical corners like rocks supporting it. Keep up the great work 👍🏻🏆

[@Wolfy5079]

Brian’s reptarium gave you a few ideas? Cool.

[@ooshybermi8310]

Joey mentioned this AGES ago and I’ve been waiting for it, can’t wait to see how it turns out

[@DaxHimself]

I'll wait to see it in a week or so before I decide how to feel

[@LRBaquatics]

Thats gonna take it to the next level

[@archktik]

Ayy! Cool that you are a "member"

[@TheWaterBox]

Working with foam like this gives me flashbacks for when I was making gaming tables on my other channel. lol I should do stuff like this for my tanks one day. This is gonna looks great!

[@Day5Aquatics]

Looking forward to seeing it finished!

[@ryansinclair2622]

Cant wait to see how it turns out, keep it up Joey.

[@johnnig3589]

THIS IS GONNA BE AWESOME! I did a tarririum just like this on the inside and then used my airbrush to do rock cracks and shading and texture ;) so exited

[@berrybaptiste8783]

I love the evolution of Joey's channel it started as here's how you build a tank now cheap filters now build more make them bigger now build a building for my tanks now the biggest tank ever well we need a massive filter for said tank. Kick it up to the next level tanks in 3D

[@lisarichards7263]

I think it's gonna look great! Can't wait to see the transformation

[@MrMushroomish]

Believe it or not, Joey says "believe it or not" a lot

[@JulioMiura]

This is great, I mentioned doing this when you asked for suggestions for the indoor pond! I did this with stone facade and mortar to a planter in my backyard. Now I'm gonna do this to my 10g! JK maybe?? Now I'm thinking oh, great...

[@ScrotumPole]

should you be using those sprays in the fish room?

[@ronaldkasteel3459]

ventilate that room for a deadly odor

[@justine8398]

He has a huge ventilation system for the gallery incase there was a fire some day all he has to do is flip the switch. If your referring to anything getting into the tanks all his tanks are sealed tight with and exception of the pond I'm not sure about that one.

[@fuqimhigh]

Love it I was hoping that after being at bhb this was gonna be the result. Love it when your hyped up about something

[@russell10x]

This is awesome! Build series are going to be SO much better now with daily videos. Keep up the EXCELLENT work Joey

[@jonatha.ramirez351]

Bryan’s zoo got you thinking lol

[@nf794]

Oh jas thank you i have been wanting this for so long!! Dont forget about the Waterfall u wanted to eventually build that would flow into the 2000 g :))) Keep it up!

[@marischwab6771]

Hahaha u got inspiration from Brian’s covered tanks, good for u the 2000’s going to look awesome!!

[@80kokoro]

interesting that you chose to attach all the foam as the first step, I would have thought it would be easier to carve and paint it first then attach it once complete?

[@DannStonee]

🚨The pond needs to be like bowsers tank!!!!!!! 🚨 Do it, do it!

[@AquaSplendor]

Get it done before winter, nice :P :P

[@bearskifitness6939]

Hehe I chuckle because I use to bring out door decor into my room as a kid and dress it up like an giant terrarium from floor to ceiling... great idea king!

[@DanielGonzalez-gd3dx]

Hi Joey I love these kind of videos I was thinking of doing a background for my 30 gal first. I would like to know what you recommend I use for it to build the background please answer back.

[@chrisdemeule3777]

I hope you tested the foam with all of your paints before starting this project...

[@VoicesofSlumber]

Looks like that Snapping turtle tank got you thinking!

[@michaelmitchell5909]

That's gonna look feeakin awesome!...as a journeyman Mason, I'd of out real stone veneer on it before it was painted black, but you'll do a great job on it and I can't wait to see what you do with it!...

[@jcordova0121]

Amazing tank. I can wait to see the finish product of your project, I'm sure it would be amazing too.
