Took me 5 years but after watching this video years ago im finally getting my shellies today!!
I think it would be cool if you took the shells out, flattened the sand, replaced the shells and then took a time lapse of the fish's activities. That would be quite interesting.
The thing is that the fish shaped the sand in their own liking, and that those shells are their territory... if u took out the shells, it could be a disaster!!!
Bagel God that's not what he was saying
WolfEatsCakes oops! My mistake! Thanks for pointing out :)
@@sapphireotaku3399 they would still rip each other apart reforming the territories
What imthis fish name?
live stream these fish or time laps or another time laps of like 2 days so we can see the sand move around
Why I love your videos: your personality, getting to see amazing tanks/building, getting to see cutesie fishes, your personality and most of all how educational they are! Which is so awesome for a new fish owner ❤❤❤😊
Love the simplicity of this aquarium! Thanks, Joey.
I remember when you had shellies before, a few years ago. Fell in love with them then, and still love them today. As I'm not able to have fish tanks anymore, due to health issues, I am really happy to see you have been keeping them again. They are such fascinating little guys. Thanks for stocking these little darlings again!
always interesting to watch your videos, love the educational aspect as well as entertainment
That's a really pretty fish and a great-looking aquarium! Loved the background on the species and the lake! Nice work :)
Your work is appreciated Happy to see that tank ❤️🐟
now my wife wants me to build her an entertainment center and a tank for these fish. she is in love with them! thanks for all your tips, tricks and informational videos!!! keep up the good work Joey!!
I love this series! It has given me the itch to build my own aquarium. Thanks!
im loving these fish more and more! keep up the good work man!
hey Joey,
whatever happened to this tank?
☹️
I have a colony of multis. Good that you give a focus on this very interesting type of fish.
loved the video joey. thanks for the upload.
Love the shell dwellers, tank looks great.
Joey, I absolutely love your videos! I recently discovered this little firecracker of a fish and instantly fell in love. It was hard to find decent reliable information on these little fellas but I think you did a great job with this video and tank. 😁
I love this tank and I just ordered the shells for my tank have been researching a lot about these cichlids and I am so fascinated that I am setting up a tank for them. I love your channel and have resealed my own Aquariums and now make my own filters thanks to Joey
It's a gorgeous tank! Thanks for sharing!
After watching this series I set a a 20 long with the neolamprologus multifasciatus it us now my favourite tank! Thanks for the great series
I've always wanted to have a shellie tank. I wish I had one just like yours. It's gorgeous.
I love the look of these she'll dwellers, they're so cute. 😊🐟
so glad shellies are finally getting some love :)
Thank you so much! You answered so many questions I had about these awesome fish 🐠
Fascinating and informative video about a species new to me - thanks!
These fish are awesome they're so fascinating to watch!
hey joey, where did you get you shell dwellers? I'm setting up a tank and am having trouble finding them.
Beautiful shells and landscape!
these are freaky! :) seeing their faces poke out of the shells is cute! i admire your dedication to all your tanks, seems like a ton of work. Love seeing your videos!
Very interesting! I may have to give these a try sometime
I MUST have these fish! this is the only good shell dweller video on youtube i swear.
Joey the tank is looking brilliant 🐠🐟
Awesome tank. Those she'll dwellers are really unique
Love the fish Joey they look amazing and I've actually never heard of them congrats
They are awesome! what an interesting fish.
Amazing aquarium once again Joey! I love the African Shell Dwellers and i plan to get some soon for my new 40L tank! Awesome video mate! :)
Amazing Joey!!! Thats what you call an office desk!
The video of the DIY's are the most coolest aquarium videoes on UA-cam
OMG Joey you already have fry in there!!! love it!!
Congratulations for you channel, you are an inspiration and an example of creativity and happiness. Thanks for your work
GREAT video! Love these fish
Hey Joey, do yo think we can get an update on these guys? See how they are doing? Also maybe some info on where to purchase these guys?
Thanks!
Great video! Thanks for making it.
Hi Joey.. they are a great fit for the office and that tank is made for them lol literally huh? I really like them
I like this tanganyika aquarium. Awesome like always.
thank you for giving the temp in Celsius almost no one does that and its quite helpfull :D another great vid man
Hi Joey
Your videos are very interesting. I just like to watch them and put some practices into my very small aquarium hobby. Your videos are highly motivational for fish keepers like me. Thank You Joey for many good information you provide for all levels of fish keepers. Good luck.
I've never heard of these fish before but I love them now, thinking of getting some..
Wow they are so interesting! So happy I subscribed.
Hi Joey, I saw you at Aquarium Expo yesterday! Great seeing you in person! I think you should do an African Dwarf Frog tank!
not sure where I can ask you questions and get an answer but I really need to know if it is OK to breed discus pairs in one tank if I use painted dividers?? I have a 75 gal and would like to divide it into 3 different parts is this ok?
Hi! You've done an exceptional job. I'm getting those.
I kept rewatching last vid these fish are so cool
This is the best shell dwelling cichlid tank i have seen till date.
hello, do you have any cover glass on tank? or these fishes don't try jumping out of tank?
this is one of the best aquariums of Joey. even when teh gallery is built. actualy i like this one and 375 gal. the others might come and go, but these two got my attention for long. it is january 2019 and i just remembered the video from past came to watch this office tank built videos. those were the good times.
how much are these fish normally? and plant life suggestions if any. i figured something that floats on top of the waters surface.
This is hands down my favorite tank that you made. Simple and Beautiful! Do you think i would be able to make a nano tank with these? possibly a 10 gallon?
can u do a flowerhorn tank setup and how to maintain it!!
Where did you get them from?
How is the tank doing now?
This is cool! Had never considered keeping shell dwellers as an option before.....
thanks for the tips, still living vicariously, but hope to have my own aquarium soon.
what size of tank do you recommend for keeping theses type of fish and how many can i keep?
OMG you sold me joey! I have ,any different fish now and I breed axolotl and have 4 types but I have always held off cichlids .... but seeing these amazing fish I am now going to start a new aquarium adventure ☺
i got the same in one of my tanks. love them so so much. they rebuild the inside of the whole tank on a weekly basis..... :)
im interested to watch you how you keep up with providing them 4 to 5 shells per fish... :-D
This was awesome, thank you for the video. This tank set up within the book shelf for these fish is a great idea, I hope you don't mind if I copy this idea in the future. 😊
I wish you could do videos every other day. Dosent matter what content you upload. It could be vlog maybe updates. But you are the reason im watching youtube. Thanks
Cuby313 162 agree!
yeeeeeeessssssssssssss!!!!!
Joey, do you add Seachem Cichlid Trace Elements or Cichlid salts to this tank? Thanks
is there any lighting or water peramiters they prefer?
since theres no plants to consider
What filter are you using in this tank? The filter I currently have is loud and very powerful and wouldn't really work with this tank so I was hoping you could let me know which one you use. Thanks!
Hey Joey!
I love all your videos!
Can we expect some vids on turtles in the future from you?!
Have you ever kept one or plan one in future?!
Currently working on setting up a 55g tank for these cichlids, what would be the best lid? Also where can I get a pair of these cichlids and shells like these?
Hey joey, I have a 15 gallon tall tank and I want to put some fish in it. What do you recommend. I really want to have a full community tank.
Hey Uaru, how are you going to keep the sand clean...I'm having a rough time keeping mine algae free...
Cool even I am getting shell dwellers (callirius) ..... mostly next week . I had a question how long did it take for them to start breeding . And what do u feed them !!?
I am in love with a new fish!
How many frys do they have? Do they like plants? What other fish can go with them? Thanks for the vid..
These guys look so fun!
can they be combined with something that hangs out higher in the water column like hatchetfish or glass catfish?
I just found you videos love them. I am interested in keeping shell dwellers nwo, any advice on where to find some. Keep up the fishy work.
Joey,
Thank you for doing you UA-cam videos! I am an aspiring aquarist and even though I am not able to do many of your projects, I certainly have many ideas! I am going to build a fifty gallon acrylic aquarium using your videos and advice and would like to know where you get your acrylic from. Thank you and keep up the great content! 😁
can i know where you get this stocking from? planning to get this cute fish.
I am very interested in this species, where would be a good place to order them from in the states? Thanks
Do you keep the lights dim to avoid algae formation on shells? How do you keep such algae away?
PLEASE UPLOAD MORE, your videos is sooo good the only thing i do on a weekly basis is waiting for your video.. :(
Same here that's what I look forward to every Sunday but again we have to think about how much work joey puts into his videos so he can't just upload videos everyday editing his videos must be like a full time job along with the other builds he must be working on some that we may not even know about
planning on starting my first tank soon. are these guys good beginner fish? if not then what are? i would really like small schooling fish
And now I'm leaning strongly towards shellies for my next tank.
I'm so early!! Love and appreciate your videos:)
The tank and fish are beautiful.
And love the footage of them!!!

Would this species do well in a much smaller group in small aquarium just as a side feature tank or do you really only get the enjoyment from a shell dweller when they have enough room to properly establish there area?
newbie question here, what do you use to check the ph level?.
Hey I love these, know any other good ideas of fish of the same sort of area that could interact?
Joey who did you order the shell from, every time I tried from Amazon they wont ship to Canada.
4:55 GREAT PERSPECTIVE
I love these fish, looking to set up a tank but nobody sells them where I live would you recommend purchasing them online and if so is there a certain site you think is better than other?
Could you add plants to a tank with exLAMPROLOGUS SIMILES and, if so, what kind?
Thanks!
These fishes are so small and cute!
Oh.. my.. gob! I love these fish!
Joey, I love the videos and this is the video that got me hooked on shellies. I'm looking at changing my tank from arganite to pure pool filter sand in the upcoming months. How do you keep pH higher without something like arganite to raise it?
Love to see update....
Was there one?
