Joey. A tip on the whole feeding thing. Get some rocks, preferably limestone, and put them in buckets or tubs with water and place them in a shadowy place in your garden. There they will grow a lot of algae. Put one at a time in the tank leaving the others outside to grow more algae. Once they finish grasing on the first one you take it out and replace it with a new one. The old one goes back in the bucket outside to grow new algae.
"We'd be assuming their gender and we all know that is something that offends all fish" currently my favorite thing you've said in any of your videos hahaha
THE ASSUMING THE FISHES GENDER COMMENT HAD ME DYING
"Otherwise we'd be assuming their gender, and as we know that offends all fish" 😂 brilliant! The little smile after too

Hey Joey I hope you're shoulder is getting better, don't damage it further - we are thinking of you xxx 😝
Your a good friend to Rachel.. Can't wait to see her doing better. Get your shoulder healed up too.
species profiles sound great! Honestly anything you do Joey is fun, interesting and educational. keep up the good work and feel better!
Species profiles sounds like a great idea, especially if it's similar to your shell dweller videos, I was able to set up my own shell dweller colony from those
Joey, keep doing the species profiles, this was such an interesting watch!
The 3D background looks stunning !! Very realistic
Love the sense of humor! You had me rolling when i heard the assuming the fish’s gender joke😂
YES to species profiles!!! I learn so much from them.
Offending fish by assuming gender was pretty funny :P

J Smoove LMAO Just wait, you'll change your mind about most of the people who inhabit KZread! You got lucky, not a abundance of trolls in these comments, thank goodness! As the old saying goes... Do you know how people get into fights on KZread??? They post a comment or respond to one.... lol
This was really well done. The editing was good. Your energy and off-sides of deeper information was solid. Camera work was good. Stoked on this as a whole.
I think the problem with this aquarium could be the amount of rocks/hideouts and separations to create small territories inside the tank itself. By adding a lot more rocks, the males can't chase all the females or at least not the same ones again and again, they get lost and tired doing it, in this type of open tanks (especially with moderate footprint (I mean, height is not really important for this type of fish) it's easy for them. It's the same problems with hard M'bunas (maylandia, cynotilapias, some melanochromis auratus etc). Check some of the most ''rocky'' m'bunas aquariums, maybe you could try a different approach.
That gender comment was great. It’s getting bad here in the states. It’s probably worse in Canada.

Species profiles are great

Never assume a fish's gender
Not a want, but a need. We need those profiles. It helps so much.
I think you should do species profiles joey. You would be great at doing them as you can share your experience with keeping them and they can be very informative!!!
Yes do species profiles
New subscriber i love the vids dude im about to get a 20 gallon tank just to start
I used to breed these and made good profits. I got into breeding because I had a Trio one male and two females that did well together. I tried often to get new established colony’s but found that when I changed their environment in order for them to come live with me the pecking order would start all over dwindling a colony pretty quickly. I always found in my experience a trio for me would make it and breed well and live long lives or a colony that started off in same environment, and matured together in that same environment, then breeding and growing old together (until one dies which would start the pecking order eventually dwindling my entire colony)
Assume their gender cracked me up
Love the species highlights that Rachel does . Plus I always enjoy your videos. Its very heart warming seeing you 2 collab and share the friendship you tubers develop.
Love the low key shade thrown at your Prime Minister. Keep it sane Joey!
They are looking cool for sure! thanks for sharing!
i cannot believe you got them 9 months ago! feels like just yesterday you got them
I would love to see a species profile on your fish!
Yes to species profiles
OMG THE ASSUMING GENDER PART!👌
Can you do a follow up or part 2 on your Tropheus
👌 wich coral are you planing for the saltwater Tank?
Love the little sly roasts x😂😂lmfao
Love this tank! How big will those Trophius get?
I really want some super info on the angelfish
Awesome video - love your focus on one tank at a time. Lots of detail. Really appreciate it!
Lol We have finally found a tank, that is NOT Joey’s favorite!!!!! Thought this day would never come... mark your calendars 📆 people. This is a special day.
Quick question what's your thoughts on freshwater eels and why do you not have any or talk about them
Nice video!, do more of that please, it would be nice to get to know better about the fishes and how you maintain them, besides, see the tanks in details like this one, is awesome hehe
You got an instant like with the gender assuming joke 😂😂😂

get your shoulder sorted and get that pond done otherwise I'm flying from the UK to do it for you!!
I appreciate and enjoy watching all the videos you post!! Love Rachel O'Leary channel too!
Yes species spotlights, I already subscribed to Rachel so I don’t miss one! I love your gallery, but will likely never go over 30 gals. so dwarf species in a biome setup are my goal.
Really love how clean your glass and substrate is on this tank
I think ill stick with a ten gallon with a betta. I dont think I can handle all of that. Nah no idk what i want to do in the fish hobby. Great video joey
That background is goals
Yes to species profiles! I want to hear about African Cichlids and Rainbowfish!
I like the idea of doing species profile videos. I'd like to see them even longer and in more depth. Rate each species like you did this one. Very cool idea. Can't wait for FRANK'S video!
Since you're on a well and not a municipal water line, do your water parameters change with the seasons and different levels of precipitation?
Good job not offending the fish
Never seen these before. I love the way they dart around. I can imagine they'd be hellish to corral.
How do you keep the tanks clean?
Yes yes yes. More species profiles and perhaps the angle of how you designed the tank specific to the species. Love that!
Would definitely like a species profile on each of the aquariums
DAM JOEY UR ARM IS GETTING HUGE
yes species profiles! get well soon :)
Yes to the species keep up the good work👌
Species profiles would be great.
This is the kind of video I was expecting when you came with the educational-aquarium-gallery idea in the first place, please do at least one for each tank. Thanks for this one. I'd also love to know about the fish love affairs and watch parenting Discus ! ;)
This v-log is one of my favorite joe in all of your collection if possible bring them back i really love them.
Joey hope you are better. Take your time to heal then do the pond. And to whoever is reading this i hope you are having a good day and you are special
Never assume a fish’s gender 😂
Love it! Great insight and descriptions. I say go for it on the others. Always nice to have a wide array of info out there on so many types of fish.
i liked as soon as you made the gender joke looooooooool
Great video as always joey 😁
Get Neolamprologus brichardi "Princess of Burundi". They are very beautiful and also from Lake Tanganyika.

Odds are high that's what he did. He has mentioned on multiple occasions that he and Jeff have a deal worked out about trading fish in when and if possible.
Gorgeous tank! The fish look great! You can tell that you take care of them. Love the title as well. Tropheus are definitely not for beginners. Thanks for sharing 🤓
Joey! That's really kind of you. Rachel's species spotlights are awesome. Going over to check yours out now 👍🏽
See Frank was left on the floor again
I really like the setup of this tank Simple.. but still nice looking (or to look at) :)
Yes to profiles. Do one for each of the fish you're keeping, it's all going towards educating your followers about the fish you keep!
Yes I love species profiles, this is really what I hoped would come from the aquarium gallery!
Yes to species profile! I want to know how you keep all those angels together without them fighting.
Hey Joey put some synodontis multipuctatus in the tropheus tank it will relax the dominant males more

J. Allen Hynek the males are the most aggressive when they will are sexually mature and what I experience in my tank that the synodontis see fighting as breeding and will disturb the fighting so the dominant male will be distracted

Hey Joey luv ur videos. Just wanted to say i respect everything that u say on how to maintain ur fishes just some hobbiest dont do all of that like me for example n keep a pretty good tank and healthy fishes.
My mom and I have a Tanganyika tank with Black calvus, neolamprologus leleupi, julidochromis marlerii. They're all great fish. I'm glad to see more Tanganyikan fish being brought to the spotlight. They're all amazing fish.
Yes to profiles
Need a dither fish, something faster for them to chase instead of each other... I had african red-eye tetra in my tank, but I could never find them again after that one auction
The one thing I learned in this video is not to assume the gender of fish cause nobody wants to offend fish (-:
