what kind of moss is this, so beautiful
The king of DIY where did you buy your net I would really like to know so I can get one for my lage fish in my 100 gallon fishtank thanks
The king of DIY:hey dude did your arowana really died pls reply
Gideon Isaac Geverola Yeah, but don't remind him. RIP Buddy.
The king of DIY
? goúd?
Nice.Thx u. 🙌💀😤♎
Fish can't see red light, so to them the tank went dark really quickly, just like if a predator caused a shadow above them. They group up because there's safety in numbers :)
Jessica Cooper Thanks for the info!
how would they know where the group is if they can't see?
@@dastreetspart3370 By smell, every fish uses a different deodorant.
Yea I don’t think it works like that.
Yes, add the bottom dwellers! Orange Laser Corydoras, I'd say at least 60 of them....
And some amano shrimp & otocinclus. ☺
Love the rainbowfish!!!
Jackie Byers I was about to comment something to this affect, maybe put in some nifty bumblebee/tiger shrimp (I've heard it called both) too
WrestlerMoore1 Yeah the larger shrimp would be safe from the rainbowfish. Also some vampire or bamboo would love the high flow...
Jackie Byers yup, maybe even get some freshwater pompom crabs, if you've never seen those, they're pretty neat
This is truly stunning! I live rainbowfish! I own a school of dwarf rainbows. Love your videos! Keep up the great work! I learn a lot from them.
Also, I finally made my dream come true this week and created an Asian biotope paludarium. :)
AntsCanada tbh I thought this was you AC for some reason when it popped up in my recommendation
Love it. I always feel sorry for an aquarium with a few big fish in it. I love the liveliness of a big aquarium with a lot of smaller fish.
This is just a living painting.
I can watch to this all day long.
I didn't think this particular tank was going to be my cup of tea, but by the end of the video it had me wanting my own giant tank with a huge school of smaller fish. Especially watching the feeding frenzy. Well done sir. It looks lovely.
I love hearing and seeing how happy you are when you set up stuff like this, it really shows how much you enjoy the fish and how much you care about them, especially all the time you put into making sure they will have a good place to live. The setup looks awesome, I can't wait to see it in full bloom once the moss has grown out and the fish are showing their colors, it'll be amazing.
imagine how many guppies you could fit in there
Rebecca Raeburn Smith And imagine how many fry their will be.
Demonic Hellstorm guppies eat their fry if there not separated
Literally what i was thinking... Im obsessed with guppies and idk why 😩😂
Explanation for the schooling behaviour:
Fish can't see red light (since it is usually filtered out by the water (this is also the reason the sea is blue)), so when you only have red light, they can't see anything and think it's night time and school for safety.
I'll be going LIVE with the tank on Facebook or Instagram tonight or tomorrow!

The king of DIY I'm at a loss for words!!! That tank is absolutely stunning!
The king of DIY the tank look amazing I'm stunned!
i think the red reminds them of sunset.. as the sun goes down predators come out so they school for survival.. just a guess
The king of DIY YOU MADE MY DAY😘
So did they all make it?
You really need to film a timelapse of this tank for an hour or so. Or just loop it. Would be so relaxing on my TV
Such a 'awww' moment after you see them swimming everywhere :))
The tank looks amazing! The fish swimming all throughout it looks wonderful! Loved the 'red light' thing, all gathered to the one side. I wonder too, why that is. Weird, but wonderful! Thanks for this and all your videos, they are so enjoyable to watch.
Red is the natural colour fish see at night. So they school for safety in numbers as they think it's nighttime
THATS SO CUTE
To react like that, they must school at night to sleep. Most critters don't see red. They just think it's night :) That looks fantastic! Great work!
For wild fish at least, probably the same for your babies, the red light making them all go to one side, it's a schooling and protection reaction. Red = night, and that's usually when predators come out. So they go into a tight ball for protection. During the day, there are fewer predators hunting them, they can see very clearly, and so on. In and around the wood they cannot school safely, it's easier for an individual to be picked off. This also can be a hunting technique as well, where they get together in a tighter formation. When a school of fish is also in a tight ball, they look MUCH bigger to predators, and can ward off the potential predator by becoming a mass that is too big to attempt to nibble. Any one of these behaviours, or even all, could be what your Rainbows are doing.
By red light they hide. Because in nature the sunset means, that night is comming. And with the night the predetors are comming too.
nah they are bull , they prepare to ram the Toreador
I literally love how excited he gets when he first sees them in the tank
Anissa Marcone Same ^
You should put some small shrimp and snails in there.
Mekinar yeah apple snails would be nice in their
apple snails eat plants.
correct me if I am wrong.
+Doing Crazy Stuff As long as they're well fed and there aren't any plants with soft bodies, they won't cause issues. It's more an issue of them trying to climb on plants and breaking it with their body weight than eating them, really :')
I think your red light may simulate sunset and the Raibows are swarming because that's what would happen in the wild, when the Sun goes down they swarm
the reason they school in the red light is because it imitates night time. Most fish cannot see red light so its a way many people get to watch their fish act as if it were night.
The scaping and fish choice is spot on. Cant wait to see them fully coloured. Work of art.
You should leave a 24 hr live stream on the tank. Or on one of your aquariums. I'd love to be able to look in on them anytime and dream that my tank would be that amazing
Joey,
I think Redtail Sharks (Epalzeorhynchos bicolor) would add a nice flare to the bottom section of this tank.
keep it up, love your channel and look forward to every new video for 3plus years now.
They all group up when the red light comes because it looks like blood. And blood attracts predators.
wow ure right
I so super happy you went for rainbowfish. They are one of my favourites. I've only been able to keep dwarf varieties like neon dwarf and celebes so far.
I can't wait to see how your tank progresses. I hope one day to be able to have a smaller version of this. Waw 😍
Lots of fish can't see red spectrum, hence responding in a similar way to no lights on. Best way to check for unwanted critters in a reef tank is to phase a red period into the night time cycle. Looks awesome dude
Maybe something to do with the shorter wave length of the spectrum towards the red end.
It's likely that red also can't penetrate very deeply in to water.
His passion, love and adoration made the video even better
I love how excited he was when they fist got in the tank 😂
The amount of joy these fish bring to him makes me happy
Allison Wu ikr?!💗
yes, his reaction is just so genuine. I love him
I don't know much about rainbow fish or their personalities but if they would work, a large amount of cherry shrimp would look absolutely amazing in the tank with the sand and wood, and would accent the fish well
i can see he is so happy and excited from the look of his face...he's smiling ear to ear the time when he is about to pour all those fishes into the tank
nice!
I'm a huge sucker for schooling/shoaling fish behavior, & I'm an even bigger sucker for MONSTER TANKS. You sir have married my two great passions with enormous effect, THANK YOU JOEY!
Red light is the first to dissipate in water and a lot of fish don't see that color well, so it's possible they schooled with only the red light because it looks like the lights were killed entirely to them.
Red is the light of morning and evenings. They school to darkness to protect from predators which are harder to see in the red light
The red light simulates night as most non complex eyes don’t have enough photoreceptors to see red because it’s to low on the electromagnetic spectrum
You must be fun at parties
DJ AIRIS ya I’d say so
Thank you! I had to scroll way too far to find the right answer. One guy said the fish think there’s blood in the water lol 😂
4:25 is the part y'all looking for
Your reaction when the fish were put in was amazing, shows how much you love your fish, so happy for you the tank looks unreal
the fish school together like that because, although the light went red it also got significantly darker, so the fish feel threatened in lack of day-light and form a fish ball to protect themselves against potential predators.
Red light has the largest wave length compared to other colours, so perhaps the fish can't see the red light? If so, they would assume it's dark, making them instinctively huddle in groups for protection.
Sounds reasonable, but I don't know for sure. Anybody know how far up the visible light spectrum fish can see?
For those wondering about the red light thing. Most fish cannot see red light so to them it would be the same as it being completely dark which causes them to think it is night where they school up for safety
I'd agree. Same with reptiles. Hence why the nighttime heating lamps have red bulbs (or ceramic bulbs that give off no light).
Idk, all my cichlids chase my laser light like kittens. Turtles too.
Crystal Rizzo infrared is different than a laser pointer
Thank you for the info! Very interesting!
He just said red light. 🤷 idk the difference.
I believe they are schooling together because they cannot see the red light meaning they think it is night when predators would be more active and they are schooling for safety
My guess was that they thought they saw blood in the water which would mean in Predator was nearby and schooling is a defensive tactic
If they are anything like certain insects like ants. They cannot see red light. So it would be pitch black to the fish. Maybe since they think its night its a defensive mechanism to stay safe and together since its dark to them.
Soup Badger colors and intensities of light are two different things.
For ants if you place clear plastic over them so the light that shines through turns red. They still believe its dark and continue to work as if its dark. Take it away and they disperse to darker areas (When dealing with a colony). A good test would be see how they react with little to no light as well I suppose. Could be similar.
Beau Garrison yes but they wouldnt be able to see the red light and it is the only light available to them
You..AND the fish are so lucky. Your passion and enthusiasm are palpable and genuine.
All the best.
By adjusting the light to more of a red spectum it fools the fish into thinking its night. The fish then school together for safety.
Each one of us have some different taste or preference with regards to fish keeping and those rainbows are good, but if i were joey I will put Discuss and Neon/Cardinal Tetras. The size of this beautiful tank is just perfect for those fish.
I agree Discus and Tetras are perfect for that tank.
You might be the King of diy, but you are the emperor of fish keeping. :)
According tot a study, red light improves feeding motivation. But it seems they act as if there is danger, since they school together. Don't know what the natural predators of rainbows are, if there are any.
Your enthusiasm makes me want to get back in the hobby. We had 3 tanks in our living room and I loved them. They were small and I wasn't allowed to really maintain them (my dad refused to let me do water changes so the tanks went downhill when he didn't do one for a while) but now I'm away from him I want to get back into it....
Love the tank. Rainbows are one of my alltime favorites. As for your red light question.. I have seen many different reasons in the comments from stress to cant see red( they can and very well).. its an anti-predation mechanism. Throughout the Rainbows native range most predatory fish are crepuscular and are most actively hunting at dusk and dawn when the visable light spectrum ranges between 460-700nm due to scattering of VIB light during these times. Yes thee ol' safety in numbers is at play.
This is incredible. A tank like this is a dream of mine. Something huge with a TON of tiny fish in it. Love your content Joey. Keep up the great work.
Firstly this is my very first comment in any RUclips video, so thank you. That tank is truly one of kind and awsome, words fail me as to how good it is. For me the best view is from the end of the tank. It gives a real depth to the whole experience. Thank you.
I love your passion about fish 🐠 👌🏻
It's becuse in the light they can see pretitors but in the dark like night time they swarm togeather to have more of a chance to live becuse safety in numbers
I have a feeling one day he will turn one of his bedrooms into a tank with a lower crawl space to enter to the center for viewing.
I think they might be reacting like that because of mating behavior. They see a very bright red, it and are attracted to the each other naturally, also most fish mate in the early morning where the lighting is softer, red is a much softer frequency light than white/green/blue.
Educated guess : In the wild, red lighting coincides with sun-set. This is when the predators come out, and your bite-sized pets instinctively gravitated towards the darkest, safest corner.
They school together out of fear. Safety in numbers, when the red light is on, basically they are scared.
Corydoras panda will be excellent addition for the bottom
Love it! This tank looks great. You are so inspiring!
Your enthusiasm throughout had me excited as well!!
Love all the fish, it really added a lot to the aquarium. Awesome how you change the color of lighting on the aquarium with your phone, never knew you could do that. I like the scenery you created also.
if you need to net them . its going to be easy . make the lights red.
Tank looks great Joey but you're killing me with those bubbles on the glass. Lol
Hi. This tank is awesome! I like the way you did the woods and plants! I can't wait to see more! Like some people said, it would be nice to have a little more variety of fish because I think this tank is capable to showcase beauty of different types of fish!!! Anyways, thanks for your wonderful aquarium videos!
If you ever move this is gone be hell moving
The reason they did that when you only had the red light is because they can't see red lights like most animals so they go defensive as they are unable to see predators. You will see them do the same as all lights turns off.
Please get some rare cool Plecos! I love them. Like so he can see!
They all need names
As an underwater photographer, my guess is that since fish cannot see red light, when thats all the light there is, they think its dark and thus school together for security.
It would look really good if u had 2-3 ground dwellers as well :)
put some small crabs, snails or shimp in there !!
Thanks for sharing what an incredible tank! Loved your video.
You wasted like 10 mins saying that ypu have to be quick lol
The tank needs some corydoras. 100% it would look awesome with a huge group of them on the bottom.
So good to see Joey happy and exited again this tank is going to be epic! :)
I guess they have the same subconscious feeling for colors as we do. Probably the red water reminds them of a bloodbath when an attack has happened by a foe. So, of course, they look for safety. I do not understand why your aquarium lights come up with this feature since it seems pointless for the fish or even make them panic...
I think the light feature is nice... especially for parties and stuff.
I had the same thought
They don’t think idiot
Definitely should turn off the lights in the tank for the first few hours or so after introducing the fish to the new habitat. Reduces stress.
I would absolutely love to see you construct a tank that consists only of native freshwater fish in the US only. Sunfish, bass, darters, perch, hell even a muskie or pike idc as long as its native to the United States i would absolutely 100% be thrilled to see that!!!
The fish can't see red light, to them it suddenly gets dark, so they get closer together for protection.
I'm happy to see you smiling after what you've been through over the past month or so. This tank looks fun! I would be hypnotized if it was in my home! Are they schooling fish? It looks like they are all over the place at random, but eventually will they swim in groups?
It's great to see a smile on your face, and see you excited again. Happy for you my friend! best wishes!!
Hi from the UK , Been following your videos for some time now, devastated for your loss of the arrowana.
Would love to have seen the 375g as a chiclid setup but can't help agree with your thoughts on this being a favourite tank... keep up the awesome work.
It's really cool :D Still miss Buddy though he was cool!
I'd recommend trying out another monster fish besides an Arowana. I'd love to see another monster fish get the spotlight in this huge tank.
I have red gel films to put on my aquarium to trick the nocturnal fish into thinking it's nighttime and coming out
Get some shrimps to fill the bottom with some colours!
As a dedicated rainbow keeper, I was hoping you do a variety of rainbow species, but even with just the red irians that is amazing. Some day I plan to have a big tank like that full of rainbows. Well dons, sir!
Red wavelengths of light are the first color to be filtered out from light when it goes through water. Most aquatic animals can't see red light since red light doesn't exist in water except at the surface. Since it doesn't exist there then most animals in water have never developed a need to see red light. If you use only red lighting then everything will think it is night and act like they do in the dark (since to them it IS dark). We see them acting here the same way they do in complete darkness.
In saltwater tanks we use this for watching or scouting for nocturnal animals. A lot of "bad" critters in saltwater tanks are nocturnal and you can use red light to catch something like a mantis shrimp that is killing your pets at night. Also in general there are tons of saltwater critters that are nocturnal and using red light would allow you to see the other "half" of your ecosystem that you would otherwise never realize was even there.
Rick Holley This is mind-blowing. Thanks! For real like I never would've had a clue bro! Awesome.
Excellent explanation, but I fail to see how something unwanted (like a mantis shrimp) could end up in a tank if you hadn’t put it there in the first place?
I admit I’m a novice and am probably reading your comment out of context.
DUDE!!! This is such an epic tank! I used to have rainbows in my tank and they are so fun to watch! Keep it up!
Most fish can't see red light very well so when it suddenly becomes "night time" they school up for safety
Most fish have pretty terrible vision for red wavelengths of light. Likely when you turned off everything but the red light the rainbows freaked out and thought the sun just fell. Schooling is a stress response so I guess they got scared.
I'd be interested to know how these guys behave at night when the lights are off and if they school together then too.
amazing tank joey, i love it. thank you for youre inspiring video's. i got a 300 liter tank at home which im going to fill with a big school of cardinal tetra's. this video made me so excited to add my owm!
I can't wait until they all grow up!!!
Red is the colour which penetrates the least in water, and the fish probably don't even see it. So as soon as you turn off all the other colours they will see darkness and shoal together for protection.
Like a kid on Christmas
4:27 satisfying moment
aww joey looks like a kid in a candy shop
Me: I GOT A GOLDFISH!!!
Him: Yeah, I just got another 300 fishes.
ME 😂😂😂😂
You need some freshwater crabs in there!
4:30 lol lol its like PUBG when you drop with a lot of players from a plane lol
