    It only seems 5 minutes ago we were celebrating a million subscribers. In no time flat another 100,000 have joined the fold and it's really not hard to understand why, your infectious passion for the hobby is something I look forward to seeing even though I personally only have a 10 gallon tank with a handful of Harlequins. Here's to the next million. 😊

    Joey- you don't get told this enough- the aquascape in your tanks is topnotch! Lots of people don't do a lot of aquascape when they have big fish. I do. And i enjoy seeing other do it. Good stuff!

    I agree. Just got a fairly large one as my new centrepiece fish, and it is quickly my favourite after many years owning different cichlids. I am hoping it will go great with a school of small fish that it hopefully wont eat. It has the best personality. Severum vibes. He seems perfectly happy without any other uaru in the tank. Loves playing with dead leaves.

    Joey, you should put more leaf litter on the bottom of the Uaru tank. It would go very well with the "Trunks" on the trees. Or other matter that would survive better. Like Rachel has in her Lake Tanganyika tank.

    @jaredjohnson1174 6 років тому +1

    Joey, you have some amazing tanks. The last thing you need are new ideas right now. However, I was watching your flood aversion video, and saw your Exodons. It made me think of something I hope to eventually do. Green Spotted Puffers are one of my favorites, but for many years was unaware they were a heavy Brackish/reef fish. To make things a little more interesting there are light brackish/fresh Figure 8 puffers, and a rare green puffer that looks a lot like GSPs and are often confused. It would be interesting to see a 120 salt with GSPs and a 120 fresh with Figure 8s and talk about the differences in care. You can trust me that their personality and feeding response makes the experience worthwhile if you run out of other ideas.

  • @williamamely7038
    @williamamely7038 6 років тому

    Very well done video. Thanks for sharing. Your fish look great, as always. For most of us it would be difficult to answer the question about "if you could only own one fish, which one would it be?"I myself could NEVER settle on one type of fish. It would mean having one aquarium, so if the available space in one's room limits the size of the tank, then this will further limit what fish you could keep. Being in the aquarium fish keeping hobby means we don't settle on just one type of fish. Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays and a prosperous New Year to you, Joey, and all of my fellow fish keepers.

    I’ve got a group of 10 Uaru about 4 inches now and starting to change color. I came home from an extended trip for work and all their tails are chewed up and they have scars all over their faces. I did a big water change and added some slime coat and they seem to be improving. I’m wondering if they were fighting or could they have gotten sick while I was away? Regardless it may be time to move some fish.

  • @heidispawsandfins
    @heidispawsandfins 6 років тому +1

    That was really interesting Joey, thank you. I didn't realise how beautiful they are with the colours and the irridesence. A fish that I think I would like to have in the future when I have room in my tank. Are they happy kept as just one or is there a minimum number to keep together? Look forward to some more fish specific videos, they really are interesting and informative.
    (Still trying to work out my video for the contest - hate the fact that it will be on UA-cam, cameras don't like me LOL x)

    Hey Joey, love every video mate. First time I've ever had a thought for something that might be helpful for your viewers. Could you put the names of things in writing on the screen? I'm pretty sure it's not your accent and just the fact I've never heard of the fish that is making it tough for me to catch the name. Cheers brother. Have a happy and safe Christmas

I have been watching you for a while and cant figure out why there isnt a silver in the gallery. i recently picked one up and its been a joy. but not trying to rant, ill do that in the video im working on.

    @kayb8513 6 років тому

    Joey I really think you’d like bluegill sunfish, they are a seriously underrated fish, very personable, native to most of the US (and I assume Canada) they are very similar to cichlids, but don’t have all the bright colors. I have 5 and they can get some blue on their gills and some can get red breasts, but both of my adults have dark breasts. They don’t require a heater, they like planted tanks, and will eat anything they can fit into their mouth. Smaller tank mates might not be a great idea, but same size or bigger work great, they are semi aggressive, but with a 75+ tank there should be no problem.

    Hey Joey, I love watching your videos!!! I am from Barrie Ontario, a fellow Canadian. Have you ever heard of anyone having yellow belly perch or have you considered it yourself?

    My fishes also eat anything that’s in the tank and they don’t even have teeth 😅
    I learned it the hard way.
    It’s a good thing I didn’t landscape my tank and just buy a small plant on a wood.
    After the fishes ate all the Java moss and Marimo moss, the tank is now plant less.
    Since this is my first tank, I wasn’t aware that some fishes will eat everything within a day or two.
    It doesn’t help that there’s barely any information on the climbing perch so even trying to find the minimum size of the tank needed for this fish or finding out if this fish are solitary or not is time consuming.

    Hey Joey, please please keep datnoids. I haven't seen you have one. They are also high contrasting fish and can stay in communities with each having such personality. Moreover, it is also a common practice for arowana keepers to keep them with asian arowanas as they also help keep the tank free from leftovers from the arowanas. thanks.
