LARGE cheap and easy DIY fish tank filter - AQUARIUM GALLERY UPDATE - The king of DIY

Did the school of lions fish ever happen?

can you diy a camera that will focus?

Great information and inspiration

Your water bill has to be atrocious lol

Call me naive but I'm new at this what does putting water from one tub to the other do what can it do for my fish tank and how does filtering the water like that make it better for the fish

Nice one for you how to video just found you channel. I’m in the middle of making a bio filter for my pond and was looking for ideas.

What kind of pump do you use for that huge filter. I wanna make one too plz comment.

Joey can you incorporate Dr. Novak’s BCB Filtration with your ideas , after all, I notice all you care about is the health of the fish

I need to know. How do you get the water into the first trash can without a pump and or worrying about it clogging? That's my problem with my tank is my pump clogging up.

Where is part 2?

Can you make a video to show us how to clean all of your aquariums pls

Fantastic video, would love to see the filter running on a tank.

Part 2?

👍🤟💪

Run the hole saw in reverse after first getting the center hole. Way smoother end result.

I know this video was a while ago but if that canister filter is full of sand then it’s the same ones they use for salt pools and the reason it’s stopped filtering adequately is because the sand slowly rounds like sea glass, this means you get channels in the sand that water flows through without being filtered. Best way to fix it is to use a Venturi pump to remove the bulk of the sand then a wet vac to get the last bit then just replace it with new sharp sand 😊

Tell me I’m not the only one that jumped when the hose pump hose flew out lol nice jump scare Joey

This video aged well...lol

Hey Joey what about food grade silicone lube to get them in?

anoying dude... cant watch

It is called a dremmel the tool with the blade.

Good timing Joey, this is exactly what I was going to do to my 1200!

I have a question for you, why not run BCB baskets in the return barrel? You could make 2-4 baskets and stack them so you could rotate fresh media if you see Nitrates getting higher without losing all the bacteria at once and having to wait for it to re-grow. You could even build trays and use BCB bags and get the same outcome.

The Golden Retrieve staring you down out the window the entire time you built the filters🤣🤣🤣🤣


Also if the second filter basin return is up high then the filtration wouldn't work in the s3cond you'd need it at the bottom...correct?

Does anyone know what that air pump is that was super quiet??! Need to know

Keep in mind those air pumps run hot and end up blowing hot air into the tank. Please monitor this. When these pumps start to go bad, that is definite first thing it does is over heats and gets hot. This happened to me and I lost a few fish. Typically i noticed 5-10 degrees warmer on normal days.

Joey, I know you have heard it before but "thank you" for the inspiration and dedication.

Grow some ganja it’s kinda easy

Lots of talking.

Wow nice idol

Fish keepers are lunatics (but in a good way ) ❤ lol

For the aquaponic plants, I’d recommend putting an air stone under each net cup. The roots might be having a hard time getting enough oxygen

interesting filter concept. this should work great, but have you considered what you will do when the containers (trash cans) start breaking down and leaching phosphates, sulfates, and other nasties into your system?

Fluidized filtration before static filtration may provide better oxygen levels for static bed.

Love you man keep the videos coming boss!!

Sry man but the uniseal have proven to be pretty shotty for me... Not that I have a better option to offer.

Thanks love your videos....
Somehow this video has the irritating camera out-of-focus everytime you move your view..

Does anyone have this issue?

What is the brand of the stainless steel shower heads.

You should lower the lights within a few inches of the Aquaponic the plants look leggy which happens when grow lights are to far away the the plant stretches to reach the light

You had a moment there where you were talking about your loudest air pump and I was standing in between my computer and the exact same air pump in my fish room and it was like stereo Noise

Love your content but the focus and out of focus making me ill.

I flood my freshwater tanks all the time I do a water change. Glad to see it's not just me.

Any chance you have ADHD? 🤣

Wow those filters look so easy and effective will give them ago but on a smaller scale

I would love to see a video of your above aquarium sump. Could you ?

I think I will make one for my water feature outside. Maybe smaller though. Thanks

Great video, keep it up!👈
