      Bro.. just do it! I love species spot lights, the only reason I watched river monsters just for fish information so... DO IT JUST DO IT! DON'T LET YOUR DREAMS BE DREAMS! call the series Absolutely Fin-nomenal! (sorry for the copy paste of my main comment I'm just really proud of the name I came up with!)

      As a fisherman in northern Australia I can attest to another super power of the scat, steeling fishermen's baits. I still love the little buggers though.

    Joey always does a great job. Love his work and entertainment quality. I’ve been jealous of his tanks for years. As a college student I have to keep my hobby expenses to a minimum. But he is truly an inspiration for my future. Keep up the great work! 👍

    I love your videos man!!!! I just found you while watching videos because I just recently refilled my 55 gallon that has been empty for around 6 years. I'm back in the hobby and in love with it again. Every video of yours that shows your oscars just captivates me. They're AWESOME fish. I'm upgrading to a 125 gallon later this year hopefully and I think it's just going to be for a couple oscars. I've never had one but yours are absolutely awesome!!!

  • @NogrimStoneson
    @NogrimStoneson 3 роки тому +11

    thats so cool that they stick to the rocks like that!, i was wondering how the venomous spine would work, but if something has to try to scoop them off a rock like that they would get jabbed in their mouth before theyd get it off the rock. so cool.
    with the archers being able to corect refraction can see you really clearly through the glass , really interesting watching them react to you being up close.

    • @thekingofdiy

    I really like how you give interesting facts, while showing off high quality footage of the fish :). Then compliment it with some sort of action ( such as moving the scats ).
    I think you found the right formula :D!

    Hi King of DIY. I am a new sub. I grew up raising African cichlids, oscars and other larger breed of fish. I am eager to get back into the industry. I am figuring out what I want to start with. Tank size and fish. I watch almost all of you guys. I love learning!!! Keep the knowledge coming. Thank You.

    Joey...1st off I LOVE your videos! 2nd I had a horrible day today. I lost my year old 24" arowana Obi~wana today and my pleco yesterday. He stopped eating & started acting weird about 2.5 weeks ago. The only change being a "National lighting" power box we are using? We had our water tested and my fish guy said it was pretty much perfect the ph and ammonia were a little off but we hadn't done his water change yet, but back to normal after the water change. We do water changes once a week. We had gotten a canister filter about 5 months ago and done two cleanings for them (not rinsing the media but the 2nd cleaning there was almost a black colored algae growing in the canister(not in the tank)) Our fish guy suggested checking the electrical current in the water. It was at 32 volts with the voltmeter. We couldn't figure out what was causing it. Then today we also checked my older tank with my Oscar and pleco in it. The meter read 37 volts... And they are doing fine? I'm at a loss. They were doing GREAT until 2.5 weeks ago and I want to continue and get another arowana but don't want a repeat because I don't know what caused Obi's death. He also was only on a pellet diet, no live food. Any feedback or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

  • @alexsturtz4933
    @alexsturtz4933 3 роки тому +1

    Hey Joey I really think a group of geophagus read head earth eaters. Or maybe the geophagus altifrons, or geophagus Willmari! Totally up to you but they have similar personalities, as to Oscar's and urau but with they're own twist. I truly think you will enjoy this peaceful species of cichlids, and on top of that I don't think you've ever done a video on these guys!!
    Thank you for reading joey!! P.s thanks for the plywood aquarium build videos!

    @Jacin_Larkwell 3 роки тому +1

    I wanted to add that chickens are similar in the competitive eating. When they're alone and injured it can be a bit tough sometimes to get them to eat. But add another healthy bird and the injured one will start eating to try and get for before the other bird eats it all.

    Love your way of thinking ! :D My top 5 fish in this hobby apperance wise has to be 1. Arowana 2. Sting rays 3. Bichirs 4. Discus 5. Tiger oscars can look really really nice aswell! Currently have bichirs and oscars planning on getting discus soon aswell ( in another tank obv ) and then some day maybe a aro + stingray but atleast i have something to work towards so i cant complain ! :D
