The seahorses are so cool to watch swimming around! I’ve seen a few ‘planted’ saltwater tanks before, but they were all nano sized. Hopefully the macroalgae takes off, I think it looks great
*moans*
"I DIDN'T MEAN TO MAKE THAT NOISE" 🤣🤣🤣
In all seriousness it's clear this was a pretty big moment for you. Glad we get to be a part of it!
I’ve always wanted sea horses but know they are hard to keep so I’ve never gotten them, so happy to be a part of this journey you’re embarking on with these beautiful creatures and I’m so excited to follow along 😍
I worked at an aquarium as a volunteer and NOBODY was allowed to touch them. Only 1 member of the staff who was very experienced with their care fed, did water changes and cleaned their tank. They are very sensitive and can die quickly
The main problem is they need a good established tank and people hate that period and impulse buy (me included, on corals)
giving you a massive hit and miss ratio (2 of the same coral, next to each other 1 dies, the other doesn't for example)
A good source of where you get the seahorses and a good established tank should do.
If you're willing to skip that part, prepare for daily water tests, water changes, baby caring.
Edit: Always ask what they feed on in the shop and possibly ask to see them feeding if you' don't completely trust the store.
@@lastmexicano i had breeding seahorses and aquariums didnt believe us bc of how hard they are lol
@@cameronhuard7880 i wouldn't also believe when a person enters the store and looks at some seahorses and says i have some breeding seahorses XD
@@justslow9483 it wasnt a store lol it was a aquarium who hadnt even had it done and when we brought the babys in they told us they couldnt take them at the time
Seahorse has always been one of my favorite, I could watch them all day.
The decorative macroalgae tank keepers, while not common, are a dedicated subset of the marine hobby that has some amazing tanks, but since it's hard to compete with the popularity of reef tanks, their popularity has never really take off. I will say, having kept some macroalgae tanks myself, they can be quite challenging in their own right, as many macroalgae require specific water parameters to flourish, and it's easy to overrun them with nuisance algae. Regardless, it's good to see you're bringing some attention to the idea, no matter how simple.
Joey, your excitement is infectious. I am truly happy for you, they are a great acquisition. I'm always impressed and encouraged when i watch your videos bro, you don't just have these animals for your own enjoyment... you put in the hard work to ensure they are well taken cared of and happy. May more and more hobbyist put so much care into what they are charged to care for. God bless brother.
10:03 am, just did a 5 gallon water change on my 14 gallon nano reef. It’s Sunday, my only day off and I start smoking my seaweed pen.. I see you upload. Man todays gonna be a great thank you Joey ❤️
I wouldn't recommend smoking seaweed, it's best to keep it in your tank! 😉. Lol have a great day off!
Macroalgae is AMAZING for the Saltwater community! It works wonders for removing nitrates, just like the plants in freshwater!! Also if the Seahorses don't eat, try culturing Daphnia, all you need is a barebottom tank, and to feed them you can give them Bug Bites or let a bucket sit outside after rain and take some green water and culture that in a jar ir something and feed the daphnia a good squirt every day, Edit: I also hope Macroalgae will help get people into the Saltwater part of the hobby as well!!
This has honestly made my day! I’ve always loved seahorses because they reminded me of horses but I have never owned them because I have no experience with salt water aquariums and know how unique they are so it’s amazing for you to get them as your content is always so authentic and shows what it’s really like. I hope one day once I’m older and have a stable job I can get more experienced with salt water tanks and eventually have my own seahorse aquarium. I only have one fish tank and it’s a cold water tank as I’m at university but your videos are always such an inspiration to me
Once again living vicariously through Joey's tanks. Love love love seahorses!
I do all my vicarious living through Joey's tanks.....
That's why I love seahorses. They just do not care. They are sassy and do what they want to do.
It was amazing to me when I worked at a pet store that people would see sea horses and think they were mythical. I'd always hear "They're real?".
Proof that 80% of our population are absolute imbeciles 🤣💀
WOW 🤩 Joey! They are stunning! They look amazing swimming around the little aqua scape you created for them. I can’t wait to watch and learn more about them through your videos! I’m so freaking excited you got Seahorses!
I think this is one of the most exciting videos you’ve made in a long while that grabbed my attention… I can’t keep salt water it all goes over my head but I LOVE getting to experience it second hand through you !
I love the honest and excited Joey! Is so true to yourself and your love for the hobby and craft! You rock.
I love sea horses. I really hope they do great and hopefully they breed.
i had breeding seahorses, extremely hard most aquariums dont even get them there.
like we tried to give them to Mystic Aquarium in CT and they did not believe us.
The seahorses and their aquarium look great!
I'd love to see an update on the octopus.
Great job scaping the aquarium I loved it. It was great to see them zoom around and hear your excitement. I always wanted to have a pair myself but to be fair to I realize I’m better suited watching and learning and enjoy you share these experiences. Thank you Joey be well be you
I like seeing you so excited about what you keep Joey. It’s nice to see that someone is doing the hobby for themselves and not for UA-cam, and it just makes the viewer happier to see what you’re doing with all the tanks. :)
I think that Of all the videos you’ve done that I’ve watched for many many many years , introductions of new species I’ve never had myself. This has got to be the one I’ve been most excited about. You’re educational as well as fun for those who don’t scape great. I don’t after about 10 years of planted aquariums I still do “it looks pretty there” Great job dude appreciate it.
I think the setup looks so natural which makes it even more beautiful and incredible. Absolutely love the seahorses, overall tank setup adjacent to the octopus! Great job!
12:01 yess..... we do.... LOL
glad to see so many of the general subscribers are excited too for you!
Those seahorses are amazing! Beautiful, strong and active! I am so happy you made these available to your subscribers.
After watching you for years and only having a planted freshwater aquarium I've now taken the plunge and decided to also start my own nano reef tank 👍
Wow! I love this. I was just searching up seahorse tanks for inspiration, and now i have it. Im deff gonna do this for my sea horse tank with plants like those.
Love, love, love the seahorses and also your octopuses. Ever since seeing leafy seahorses at the Atlanta Aquarium I've had a special love for seahorses. Glad you got them!!!!!!
Absolutely amazing video and the scape is perfect... Can't wait to see how they continue to adjust to the tank and excited to see them breed
They’re absolutely stunning Joey, congratulations on the sea horses! They’re definetly one of my favorite animals from how fascinating they are to their appearance!
So happy you got the seahorses. I have always enjoyed seeing them at the aquariums. Hope the do awesome for you!!!!🥰
This is the first video I've watched by you, you have such a delightful personality, just a very upbeat presence. Keep it up!
Love it.
I have the same green plants in my refugium and put some in my tank a few months back. Look great when thicker but they do spread their roots through all the substrate and pop up everywhere. You'll find you need to pull some out every few weeks. 😊
Absolutely love this. Love sea horses and love the planted salt water look. 💗🥰
>planted seawater aquariums.
>Flashbacks to Subnautica.
>Kelp forest.
Everything is perfect! So excited for you and your new little guys!! Can’t wait for them to breed!! So cool Joey!! You have sea monsters!! ❤️❤️❤️
Wow Joey super amazing. You should do a update on all your tanks. I would love to see them all and how they are doing. You are amazing guy
I will never forget seeing one swimming under pier next to a pillar in the Phillip bay. Was just like this hanging around something circular with plants like this. This off the coast of Melbourne Australia. Looked a bit like these guys too!
I just watched your Aquashella presentation from last year. It was fantastic! I came right over here to subscribe. Continued success in your future!
Joey I Love your humor man. You seem
Like a fun guy to go out and grab a few beers with. Keep up the Great content!
"I didn't mean to make that noise"😂 I made the same noise with u so no worries! They are so awesome!! 😍
I absolutely love this scape. It's simple but stunning.
NGL, I never really got seahorses until watching this and how they 'walk' just above the sand with their tails curled up. So interesting to watch.
They're so active!! I always hesitated wanting to get some thinking they just sat there. I will definitely rethink this later when I can set up a tank again.
This is soooooooo amazing! Can’t wait to see how this goes! You now own my my top 2 fish that I will never keep. Love this so much. Ps we need an Big Momma update lol
I personally know nothing about seahorses but I can agree they are amazing! My closest aquarium has a couple tanks dedicated to them big and mini. Both are awesome, idk the cost but you should most Definitely load your tank up with them and saltwater snails. Oof that would be a wonderful site to see especially on your channel keep it up!
wow those are amazing!!!! cant wait for more updates on these guys. 😍
Brilliant joey so wonderful to learn more about these intriguing creatures xxxx♥️♥️♥️♥️
AWESOME VIDEO.......LOVE THE TANK AND THE SEAHORSES.....
After seeing you run a saltwater tank like a freshwater tank, I was inspired to give it a go with my own twist - I did an Australian rockpool Biotope, planted with macroalgaes, stocked with seastars, dwarf aquatic hermit crabs, snails & shrimp, all in a 5 gallon. It’s so cool to watch, so different from a freshwater planted tank. I’ve gotta say though, you’re tempting me to start another one for seahorses.
the way they swim is great. i could sit and watch them all day
I could watch seahorses all day long, so majestic and stunning x
I always enjoy watching you add new fish but for me, this has to be the best yet. 👌
I absolutely love this tank and the sea horses are beautiful…… this tank is phenomenal. It would be so awesome to have two breeding pairs. Thanks Joey for sharing this , LOVE LOVE LOVE THEM !!!!
Kickass Joey!!!! The rocks look AMAZING!!!!!
Amazing to see this... Joey used to say couple of years ago;; no saltwater for me... fastforward; my dude has now seals, octopus, babysharks and now sea horses. Keep them good stuff coming ; inspirational 👏
The way they swim is super cool and very interesting. I've kept fish for 30 years, I love freshwater, but these fish and this aquarium is, for me at least, the most interesting aquarium, Please give us regular updates even if it is only a minute or so on some of your next videos.
I’m sooooooooo freaking excited to see future sea horse videos they’re so majestic!!!!
OMG it just keeps getting better!
I love watching from the uk plus I love all of your videos.I love Seahorses.
Love watching these little guys
I love the look of the tank and the seahorses seem to like it. Good luck, it will be interesting!
Have a planted highend brackish tank (1.018) for my diamondback terrapin with macroalgae. Those macros will take off! Their growth rate and nutrient uptake is insane compared to freshwater plants.
OMG they are soooooo cute.... :D I think the tank looks good. I love the way you have it set up.. It always takes time for a tank to take proper form to how you imagined :D
The seahorses are absolutely adorable!!!
Honestly the most beautiful tank I've seen I'm genuinely jealous I don't have space for a seahorse tank I'll just have to make do with watching your grow
Always wanted and still do want seahorses. Just not sure if I'm ready for this challenge. looking forward from learning from your journey to see how it works.
I knew I was going to like this tank, but this is way better than I imagined! Awesome idea and tank!
They are the best and so fascinating to watch!
I'm so jealous...my favorite aquatic animal ever. I hope they thrive in your tank...can wait for the next update
I have never wanted to start a saltwater tank until watching this video. I have 4 planted tanks and this just blew my mind, so awesome!
4:55 wow that made me emotional man. Joey's got a real love for these animals.
the way they swim is too cute
Oh wow 😍 they are so so adorable💜
Love the footage of the seahorses
I love your joy and enthusiasm! That smile on your face and the light in your eyes is delightful. I love seahorses but never thought to add them when I had large aquariums. It’s been decades since I kept aquariums and I was wondering if seahorses could thrive in one. So I just keyed in seahorse aquarium and found your charming video. Now I’m ready to learn more before I proceed.
The first question I need to answer is can I add other fish and sea creatures in a seahorse aquarium? So I’ll look for a video on that topic. Thanks for such an enthusiastic video to get me started.
Great video. Seeing the seahorses swimming around your aquarium was better than the Cleveland zoo. Keep doing what you love, because that's what we've come to watch.
They look amazing!
This is officially your best tank! I love it
This is so exciting. Seahorses and axolotl are the two most top tier fish I want to keep one day. I can't wait to see more videos of these beauties as their environment grows and they get comfortable
Let’s start from some research, axolotls are amphibians 😉
the seahorses are so cute!!! I want some if I had a saltwater tank!
Wow 🤩 , seahorses have been a fantasy for me to keep atleast once during my fish keeping experience. They are way too cool 😎
That made me incredibly happy!!! Just amazing!!
I love sea horses and always wanted them. Please continue to share them.
They are INCREDIBLE !
I feel like Joey has finally created the tank for my interest. Please don't tear this one down in 3 months.
So cool. I've seldom seen them swimming around checking things out.
Instant planted aquarium. Looks 👍🏻
I'm tempted to get rid of my UV and give it a go 🤔 Thanks again Bro 👌🏻
They're awesome. I would never have the confidence to own any though. Same with the octopus.
They are so beautiful. This has made me so happy. You should name them after famous horses, Seabiscuit, Secretariate and Man o War
enjoyed this video! Thank you. I use to have a Seahorse very rewarding. But a lot of work......Need to be fed twice daily at least. And require perfect water conditions as they're very susceptible
Loved this!
Love it it looks so awesome.
That was awesome, but does anyone else feel like seahorses look like they used to have arms, but they lost them, so they could look more magical when swimming?
i have always wanted seahorses im as excited as you are
Looks great... I never had success having my flatleaf caulerpa attached to rock, so I buried it in the sand and took off beautifully. I also found that the red microalgae need to be in direct flow at high light (it did better like that in my tank, but may be fine in yours)
🔥 content Joey as always!
this is one of my favorite tanks ever
Very, very awesome! If you don't have names for them yet, I suggest Trigger and Buttercup, Roy and Dale Rogers' horses.
They are adorable
This is super cool the most active seahorses aquarium I have ever seen.
“ I didn’t mean to make that sound “ 🤣
