bro, whats ur water parameters ? Im having the same fish(BLUE BASE ASIAN AROWANA).share your water parameters .Im thinking of using RO water right now.
iammyantinerd I use RO for 3 years mixing it a 5:1 ratio with tap water in gallons to lower my PH. My RO I buy is in the 7.2 range while my tap is 8.8 mixing my water lowers it to a 7.6 and driftwood does the rest to get it down to 7.0 in my Amazonian tank.
Thanks for a, yet again, superb video! Just bought your book, and made a overhead sump from a planter box, for my sons 250 l tank. I modified it though and added a trickle tower to it. A lot of good ideas in that book! My creation works as a charm but I need to work at the looks... Now I need to build something else for my 540 l. I recently came back to the hobby after a 20 year pause, and your channel has really boosted my love for it. Thank you! Greetings from Sweden, P.
hey, so I designed a system that utilizes the water pressure to feed the system and the pump at the end... under gravel filter ... would the return pump dissipate the oxygen content before it really enters the tank
I am curious to see a video about how you made the top glass piece and individuals lids for this tank. Do you already have a video that covers this? If so, please link it. Great videos and you've certainly convinced me to build my own show tank to save TONS of money. I'm looking into the direct injection method of applying silicone for an all glass tank at the moment. Have you experimented with this method of applying to silicone to your glass tanks? A video on that would also be great for the community. Keep up the good work, and thanks for sharing all of your experiences and knowledge.
as many others have stated, you have the best aquarium vids on youtube. the only other competitors are brs tv, and tidal gardens. You guys are all I listen to when it comes to advice. what do you do for work? I know youtube doesn't pay for all those tanks...
I love how your fish is listening to every word you say. ps: i just built my own in-tank filter for my betta's 10 gallon from a blue Sistema water bottle, filled it with charcoal and lava rock, and stuffed the bottle mouth with a bath sponge (new). Thank KDIY, your videos inspired the heck out of me :)
I know this comment comes late, but when you mentioned running power to the other side of the room to run on your lights for the space and the aquarium I thought I'd make a suggestion for your future projects. Since you seem to be a lot like me in that you change things in your environment often, I would suggest you check on some smart home devices like those made by Insteon. These devices are easy to install and allow you to turn on your lights and devices without having to install traveler wires. You're using digital signaling on your AC line to control micro devices installed behind your existing switches and fixtures.
I have followed you since you started on youtube. And I have seen you growing as an aquarist. You have become quite the expert man. Congrats. It is always nice seeing new videos...and your FANTASTIC arowana (envy) off-course...Keep up the good work.
Hello King of DIY. I enjoyed watching your big tank and system. I thought it was brilliant piece of work.I kept 55 Gallon Tank for over 15. I’m ready to upgrade to bigger tank. I’m thinking a 125 Gallon Tank, but the one you did was very nice as well. I love love to build my own. I enjoyed watching the vid. I subscribed and put notifications on, so keep them coming! Thank you for sharing!
can you talk about the costs of plywood aquariums in various shapes and sizes as well as the cost of a cheaper to build and cheaper to run filter for said plywood aquariums
U surely inspired tons of people getting into the hobby, sharing ur knowledge is the most noble act a guy can simply do, keep up the great work, thanks man
You should do a video on how you look and buy your fish online what to look for and watch out for. And good websites to trust. I see a lot of people order fish and get upset. Keep doing what you do Joey!
Hehe the door thing is to funny!!! I've questioned it before and just brushed it off as you probably knew what you were doing when putting the aquarium there 😂😂😂
This makes me want to get back into fish keeping. I was never this involved or advanced but one day I'll get another tank. I never realized how many options there were for easier maintenance with a little know how and planning.
I plan on building a tank with the same dimensions. Would half inch work or do you recommend 3/4? Also would you recommend a solid top or would 4 inch strips work?
Is there not a portion of tubing with stagnant water between where the 80% drain line connects to tank and the ball valve? Not sure if that's necessarily a bad thing or not.
Can you make a video explaining the process of curing and readying a piece of driftwood collected from somewhere in a video? I'm looking to collect a piece of driftwood, but have little clue where to start (what type of wood makes good driftwood and which to avoid, what to look for in potential driftwood [already assuming it's good for use in an aquarium, what things would make it useless for use in an aquarium - e.g., bugs, debris], how to cure and ready it for an aquarium, etc). Thanks!
I enjoy the longer video, you mentioned you would have done the sump differently, but you did not say what you would have changed? Also, if the filter sock was clogging then you could just get one that has a larger micron size right? I like the filter sock idea, I would think the sock would make maintenance easier. When you pull the dirty sponge out of the sump the waste will be dispersed into the water column just by handling it, but the sock keeps it all contained right? Thanks!!!
I apologize if this is in a different video, I'm currently looking into building a large tank (300+), If you have a base under your tank could you skimp cost on the plexi-glass bottom and top getting thinner panes?
Hello Joey, what router bit did you use to make the lip on your tank opening to fit your lids in? I am thinking on doing the same to my tank which is also 3/4 inch acrylic. Thanks!
How do you get your temperature correct? I Amuse you measure the temperature in the sump isn't there a difference between the temperature and the tank?
I totally enjoyed this video, it answered all my previous questions in one shot. I can't believe how low maintenance it is. Thanks a lot for making this one Joey, I'm sure you answered a lot of questions in fine style too I might add. Well done.
great video Joey. just curious, when you do a large water change, how do you refill the tank ...do you have it hard plumbed to the tank, or do you just drag a garden hose and hang it in there?
excellent videos and professionally edited and produced. I am interested in building a degasser for a large pond. any experience with this. would love to hear or see your thoughts and plans steve
Hey Joey, you mentioned you wouldn't recommend the the fluidized filter for this tank, but you did not say what you might recommend instead. What might you have done differently if you didn't already have the filter?
So a couple if questions 1st have you ever used spotlights as fish lights are they to bright and 2nd have you ever considers running a webcam on your arowana so we can watch him all the time
why don't you build salt reef aquarium with that size tank. With bunch of motors, heaters, high watts of lights running 24 hours a day your monthly electric bill will be at least thousand dollar a month. Be smart like me , get a dog and you will feel having a family member rather than decoration(fish tank).
andy sky you think that arowana is just for decoration. that fish is part of his family you must never have raised fish they have there own personality. if you can do it its well worth it
Also, where do you source your glass and acrylic? You said $1,550 CAD for the acrylic for your 375g tank, and I'm having a hard time finding acrylic (or glass for that matter) at the price you suggested. One place wanted almost that for one 84" x 36" sheet! I'm sure this will vary based on region, country, etc. but any potential sources that you know of that I have not come across in my research thus far would be very much appreciated!
To be fair I wondered about the door too... I think what puts people off, is doors are normally mounted on a typical door jamb, and a door always opens in the direction opposite the jamb. so if it was a normal store bought door frame, not seeing it would imply the door opens into the room, and if it opens out you would expect to see the door recessed into the wall, and the walls of the jamb would be visible. Amazing videos, I look forward to catching up on them.
Have you ever done a raceway tank before? I'm thinking about a big one out of plywood some day in the not so near future, and I'd like your take on the design.
Put the lights on a smart plug like I did. Control them with your phone, setup timers etc. WEMO Insight can handle 1800watts. Order them from amazon Canada or go to bestbuy. Thanks for all the videos and info, you have really helped me out as a novice fish keeper.
I assume that because you use a continuous drip water system that you don't use an Algae scrubber for controlling the Nitrates (along with large water changes from time to time)?
I have inherited a common goldfish and his koi buddy. They are both about 5 inches and I have them in a 40 gallon tank for now running an AquaClear 110 and air wand with a Fluval QI air pump. I live where it gets too cold to have an outside pond so I'm wondering how big of a tank am I going to eventually need?
Because of the cost, I always go overkill on equipment because at least I can carry on using it on a larger system in future and every time I'm glad I did.
Does the drip system cause just the fresh water to be the main water draining out the overflow, or does the circulating pumps take care of that ? Also, what would be the smallest tank that could effectively use these types of circulating pumps ?
Hey Joey! Great video as always. I have a question on your temperature controller. I'm running 2 300 watt eheim jagers behind the 3D background and a 250 watt in my sump for a 300 gallon Malawi tank. I'm not currently using a temp controller and am relying on the heaters themselves. Do you have a particular controller you recommend?
Joey, i know you have made a couple of videos on small compartmentalized sand bed filters...i would love to get some pointers on setting up a sandbed filter system as the fist section of my sump...any particulars on sand to water flow ratio, best way to terminate plumbing lines under the sand, and how to keep the sand confined to that section while still allowing water to flow to the next section. i look forward to exploiting your experience in order to not have to rebuild my sump 27 times!!!
hi Joey I noticed that your wier (if that is how you spell the black box covering thr plumbing) only takes or skims water from the surface, yet you mention that you dont need to siphon the bottom of the tank. Does it mean that fish waste in the bottom of the tank doesn't stay in the bottom and is totally absorbed by the wier? Thank you, really appreciate it if you can answer this question
What about invisible in-tank-wall? This could help when you want to keep smaller species with bigger more agressive species in "one enviroment". Or how to combine two or more tanks to make illusion of one huge tank.
Hey, I don’t know if you’ve already answered this, so I apologize if so. But referring to the lock line; why use this if so expensive as opposed to say pvc/rubber/plastic tubing?
Have you considered a swirl filter for the solids before the sponge? It could be as simple as just turning a valve for a few seconds to clean the most solids. You could even make the overflow for the drip system grab the solids from the bottom to automatically empty it for you. Disclaimer: I have only followed you for a few months.
hey joey my question is... I use so many plugs on my aquarium 7/8 plugs soo much electric lol how would I cut it down to how you do things I just watched one of your plywood builds and your drip filter underneath it didn't even look like u use lots of plugs please comment back and let me no 👍 I'm setting up discus
just want to ask who would thumbs down this? Joey amazing tank brother, my dream aro there... and man that planter light idea is ingenious 🖒 amazing video as always🍻
The Red Hooks were great looking fish but I understand your decision to remove them. I have had a similar looking but larger and very durable, vegetarian fish, that would work great for you !! A few Pacu !!!!
I'm curious, where do you source your acrylic from? Cheapest I've found is ~500 (and found some that were closer to 700) a sheet before shipping.. and you had to use at least 3, so it would be 2000..(in US) I'm not necessarily looking for a plug, but do you buy it locally or internet?
I would love to see you have other predatory fish such as Piranha, Alligator Gar, Snakehead, African Tiger Fish, Wolf fish in your tanks. May be in future ☺
Great vids and keep up the good work. They are highly informative & inspiring. Just a quick question on the return from the sump to the aquarium. I see that you took a lot of safety steps with regards to the aquarium overflow. What if the sump return pump fails? I don't think the sump overflow pipe would be able to handle the extra volume.
Great tank! I have a question nothing related to your great fish tank, for several month I've been noticing planarian in my tank, they are small like a hair thickness the size of a ( / ) white color, any idea how to get ride of them? I cut the feeding schedule, change 100 of the water. I still see them
Just stumbled across your channel and I am amazed! I was even more pleased when I discovered you're a fellow Nova Scotian! I only have 26g right now but I plan to have bigger. What is the best fish store you can recommend in the Halifax area? 1 fish 2 fish? Learning a lot thanks!!
I use 100 gallon tank for fish
he uses 100 gallon tank for filtration...
Moto RR lol
Right and 100 gallons is pretty big not owning your own home.. at least what is stopping me
My juvenile ball pythons 90 gallon tank was originally a sump used to filter a 250 gallon tank.
He discusses cost at 21:35
LOL
Lol thanks bro
Thanks brother.
Real mvp
Thanks
I hope your adding birchir to the tank that would be so cool
Brilliant video like always

bro, whats ur water parameters ? Im having the same fish(BLUE BASE ASIAN AROWANA).share your water parameters .Im thinking of using RO water right now.
real size?
Why would you use RO water and strip the minerals that assist in fish health and growth out of the water?
iammyantinerd I use RO for 3 years mixing it a 5:1 ratio with tap water in gallons to lower my PH. My RO I buy is in the 7.2 range while my tap is 8.8 mixing my water lowers it to a 7.6 and driftwood does the rest to get it down to 7.0 in my Amazonian tank.
Get a peacock bass they are so pretty
that air pump manifold though, that is why you are the king of DIY, I don't need all these outlets, let's pump them back to themselves. Brillant.
Imagine having this tank and adding 1000 neon tetras in there.
pimpjuice739 always wanted to do that, sounds so cool

Impressed. I didn't know home builders could build an Acrylic tank THAT size- nerves of steel!

im impressed on the knowledge you have sir.
not just building tanks but also know knowledge in fluid mechanics.
im speechless.
thumbs up

Wow a great looking aquarium! It looks so great! Very impressive,really! Great job putting it all together! What’s the cost of the materials?
can you talk about the costs of plywood aquariums in various shapes and sizes as well as the cost of a cheaper to build and cheaper to run filter for said plywood aquariums
Okay, you are the king, 👑. Great video.
U surely inspired tons of people getting into the hobby, sharing ur knowledge is the most noble act a guy can simply do, keep up the great work, thanks man
You should do a video on how you look and buy your fish online what to look for and watch out for. And good websites to trust. I see a lot of people order fish and get upset. Keep doing what you do Joey!
Hehe the door thing is to funny!!! I've questioned it before and just brushed it off as you probably knew what you were doing when putting the aquarium there 😂😂😂
What do you do when it comes to load bearing of the floor? are you on a concrete floor or is any of this on a joist floor.?
Joey can you send a link for where you got the water pump?
how do you remove the hard water build up around the top off a acrylic tank?
This makes me want to get back into fish keeping. I was never this involved or advanced but one day I'll get another tank. I never realized how many options there were for easier maintenance with a little know how and planning.
I plan on building a tank with the same dimensions. Would half inch work or do you recommend 3/4? Also would you recommend a solid top or would 4 inch strips work?
WOW! You are INCREDIBLE!
I've always wanted a bigger tank. Thanks for going into such detail!☺️
Is there not a portion of tubing with stagnant water between where the 80% drain line connects to tank and the ball valve? Not sure if that's necessarily a bad thing or not.
Your arowana is so responsive to your presence!
Can you make a video explaining the process of curing and readying a piece of driftwood collected from somewhere in a video? I'm looking to collect a piece of driftwood, but have little clue where to start (what type of wood makes good driftwood and which to avoid, what to look for in potential driftwood [already assuming it's good for use in an aquarium, what things would make it useless for use in an aquarium - e.g., bugs, debris], how to cure and ready it for an aquarium, etc).

Thanks!
How do you get your temperature correct? I Amuse you measure the temperature in the sump isn't there a difference between the temperature and the tank?
+Stefan Fransen the sump and the tank is the same temperature. All filtered water is heated prior to returning to the tank. It is a continuous cycle.
Anyone know of a site that calculates acrylic thickness for xxx gallon tank wanting to build? and what site do you use for acrylic purchases?
I like the macaroni filter, looks tasty.
I totally enjoyed this video, it answered all my previous questions in one shot. I can't believe how low maintenance it is. Thanks a lot for making this one Joey, I'm sure you answered a lot of questions in fine style too I might add. Well done.
great video Joey. just curious, when you do a large water change, how do you refill the tank ...do you have it hard plumbed to the tank, or do you just drag a garden hose and hang it in there?
+Bifkeki just a hose attached to the faucet. Same temp as the tank.
What kind of pump would you set up now? (since you said you would have done something different) Canister?
I like this video better then some of the others you have done lately.
Videos like this is why I subscribe to your channel.
excellent videos and professionally edited and produced. I am interested in building a degasser for a large pond. any experience with this. would love to hear or see your thoughts and plans
steve
Hey Joey, you mentioned you wouldn't recommend the the fluidized filter for this tank, but you did not say what you might recommend instead. What might you have done differently if you didn't already have the filter?
+anzerax hard to say. I would have to re-plan it all. It would have been some for of a sump though.
So a couple if questions 1st have you ever used spotlights as fish lights are they to bright and 2nd have you ever considers running a webcam on your arowana so we can watch him all the time
Joey how you're salt water aquarium going?
Nothing advanced yet. I have 4 tank builds on the go. I can only afford to do so much. I'll get to it when i have the resources to finish it off.
why don't you build salt reef aquarium with that size tank. With bunch of motors, heaters, high watts of lights running 24 hours a day your monthly electric bill will be at least thousand dollar a month. Be smart like me , get a dog and you will feel having a family member rather than decoration(fish tank).
andy sky you think that arowana is just for decoration. that fish is part of his family you must never have raised fish they have there own personality. if you can do it its well worth it
I have no fish and don't even plan on getting any but I've been watching your videos for a year now just cause I find them interesting lol
Thank you for your time and efforts to making my hobby fun and less expensive.
How is the reef tank project going?
Also, where do you source your glass and acrylic? You said $1,550 CAD for the acrylic for your 375g tank, and I'm having a hard time finding acrylic (or glass for that matter) at the price you suggested. One place wanted almost that for one 84" x 36" sheet! I'm sure this will vary based on region, country, etc. but any potential sources that you know of that I have not come across in my research thus far would be very much appreciated!
Really enjoyed this one; great to get inside your head and see exactly why you did the things you decided to do with this particular build!
To be fair I wondered about the door too... I think what puts people off, is doors are normally mounted on a typical door jamb, and a door always opens in the direction opposite the jamb. so if it was a normal store bought door frame, not seeing it would imply the door opens into the room, and if it opens out you would expect to see the door recessed into the wall, and the walls of the jamb would be visible.

Have you ever done a raceway tank before? I'm thinking about a big one out of plywood some day in the not so near future, and I'd like your take on the design.
It'd be neat if you posted a video explaining your step by step process of a water change for this tank.
He has it set to a drip system. No water change.
Actually he stated in this video at about 21:10, that he does do water changes, about every 2 weeks to a month.
If you watch the video he states he does regular water changes.
Very nice build on that tank you thought it out very well would love to have you build me a 180 gallon tank .
Great video! I think you should paint your ceiling black.
Put the lights on a smart plug like I did. Control them with your phone, setup timers etc.
WEMO Insight can handle 1800watts. Order them from amazon Canada or go to bestbuy.
Thanks for all the videos and info, you have really helped me out as a novice fish keeper.
nice video and very informative too. thanks
I assume that because you use a continuous drip water system that you don't use an Algae scrubber for controlling the Nitrates (along with large water changes from time to time)?
I have inherited a common goldfish and his koi buddy. They are both about 5 inches and I have them in a 40 gallon tank for now running an AquaClear 110 and air wand with a Fluval QI air pump. I live where it gets too cold to have an outside pond so I'm wondering how big of a tank am I going to eventually need?
im really concerned what you use for the upper layer of aquarium lid? is it glass or some sort of other material.... do inform. :D
What air stone and pump do you use?
Great video. Do you build setups for people?
What kind of temperature controller is it? Need to buy one
Wow, your sump is bigger then my tank. Great video
Where do you purchase your acrylic? Thanks for the info... I'm a new subscriber
Because of the cost, I always go overkill on equipment because at least I can carry on using it on a larger system in future and every time I'm glad I did.
Does the drip system cause just the fresh water to be the main water draining out the overflow, or does the circulating pumps take care of that ? Also, what would be the smallest tank that could effectively use these types of circulating pumps ?
I love the lights💛
Hey Joey! Great video as always. I have a question on your temperature controller. I'm running 2 300 watt eheim jagers behind the 3D background and a 250 watt in my sump for a 300 gallon Malawi tank. I'm not currently using a temp controller and am relying on the heaters themselves. Do you have a particular controller you recommend?
Joey, i know you have made a couple of videos on small compartmentalized sand bed filters...i would love to get some pointers on setting up a sandbed filter system as the fist section of my sump...any particulars on sand to water flow ratio, best way to terminate plumbing lines under the sand, and how to keep the sand confined to that section while still allowing water to flow to the next section. i look forward to exploiting your experience in order to not have to rebuild my sump 27 times!!!
hi Joey I noticed that your wier (if that is how you spell the black box covering thr plumbing) only takes or skims water from the surface, yet you mention that you dont need to siphon the bottom of the tank. Does it mean that fish waste in the bottom of the tank doesn't stay in the bottom and is totally absorbed by the wier? Thank you, really appreciate it if you can answer this question
The circulation within the tank keeps anything suspended long enough to be skimmed out.
cheers joey! been planning to make my own arowana tank and this has been bugging me for quite a while thank you!
Great video I always wondered about that door
What about invisible in-tank-wall? This could help when you want to keep smaller species with bigger more agressive species in "one enviroment". Or how to combine two or more tanks to make illusion of one huge tank.
just a thought...you are a great videographer. have you thought about making a long meditative video of this slow fish?
Hey, I don’t know if you’ve already answered this, so I apologize if so. But referring to the lock line; why use this if so expensive as opposed to say pvc/rubber/plastic tubing?
This will be 1 of your top 5 videos brotha !!! Great video is all I can say, really informative.
Have you considered a swirl filter for the solids before the sponge? It could be as simple as just turning a valve for a few seconds to clean the most solids. You could even make the overflow for the drip system grab the solids from the bottom to automatically empty it for you.

great job on the aquarium set up bro and very wise choice of fish Asian gold Arowana....
hey joey my question is... I use so many plugs on my aquarium 7/8 plugs soo much electric lol how would I cut it down to how you do things I just watched one of your plywood builds and your drip filter underneath it didn't even look like u use lots of plugs please comment back and let me no 👍 I'm setting up discus
just want to ask who would thumbs down this? Joey amazing tank brother, my dream aro there... and man that planter light idea is ingenious 🖒 amazing video as always🍻

+William Tyrrel locally. They don't ship. Sorry. Anything under $700 is not an ad price though.
Where do you get the acrylic glass from?
I would love to see you have other predatory fish such as Piranha, Alligator Gar, Snakehead, African Tiger Fish, Wolf fish in your tanks. May be in future ☺
I want to build a in wall tank. How do you deal with condensation?
Vey good video keep up the good work 👍👍
That door segment part was hilarious, LOL. Love the detailed description of the setup!
Great vids and keep up the good work. They are highly informative & inspiring. Just a quick question on the return from the sump to the aquarium. I see that you took a lot of safety steps with regards to the aquarium overflow. What if the sump return pump fails? I don't think the sump overflow pipe would be able to handle the extra volume.
How was the tank so cheap? Where did you get the acrylics from??
Great tank!
I have a question nothing related to your great fish tank, for several month I've been noticing planarian in my tank, they are small like a hair thickness the size of a ( / ) white color, any idea how to get ride of them? I cut the feeding schedule, change 100 of the water. I still see them
say the size of this aquarium please
how would you change the sump to your liking?
thanks for the info on the air pump
Just stumbled across your channel and I am amazed! I was even more pleased when I discovered you're a fellow Nova Scotian!
