    Since you got different areas of the world you should do a North America tank..that would be sweet too see some large mouth bass crappie white perch pikes or some

    @rissaroo7679 Před 6 lety +10

    Joey... sad question.
    What do you do when you get a fish that looks like it's dying ? Example- the fish is sideways, gasping ect.
    Do you humanely euthanize?
    I am having a few fish that are coming in like this and aren't getting better. Please help. I need answers. ( everyone like so Joey can help me please )

    • @tankers3656
      @tankers3656 Před 6 lety

      If nothing works n u have to euthanize overdosing clove oil beyond the anesthetic point works well. N let the fish sit in it extra long. It's basically an anesthetic. Sorry u have to deal with that.

  • @triniteGQ
    @triniteGQ Před 6 lety +12

    Joey say it with me, "V-eh-ha!"

  • @skillfulVandal
    @skillfulVandal Před 6 lety +4

    Really appreciated the change in style my man. I especially liked the details in the video edits, the timelapse, feeding time and the close-ups of the breeds. It was differnet but if I'm honest I think its time you switched it up and introduce new things you want to say and present, the gallerys nearly there and when it is it makes sense to lead your videos from a curators POV. Nice one J ty

  • @GnarlyOatmeal
    @GnarlyOatmeal Před 6 lety +6

  • @gartzilla
    @gartzilla Před 6 lety +13

    Vieja. Vieja. Vieja.
    Vieja = VEE-EH-HA
    Pronounce the J like an H.

  • @jenniferrodriguez7123
    @jenniferrodriguez7123 Před 6 lety +8

    If this is the one that means "old lady", Vieja is pronounced like "vee-eh-ha" where the "ha" is a harsh sound, like of flemmy, like you've gotta spit.

  • @murg
    @murg Před 6 lety +6

    "Everyone asks me how much my fish cost"... I really wonder how much your fish cost "per month"... I mean... water bill, food, electricity, etc. (the price to build the gallery and all the supplies & aquariums is obviously an astronomical price)

  • @blusun2
    @blusun2 Před 6 lety +5

    “VEE-eh-HA” would be the right pronunciation for vieja.

    I did know about Vieja!! One of my LFS often has them available. I think if I had the tank space available I would rather opt for Festae, though. (It's pronounced "vee-ay-hah" btw)

  • @DarkThorns00
    @DarkThorns00 Před 6 lety +10

    The amount of people not giving Joey a break because he's mispronouncing vieja is too damn high lol please people remember he does not speak Spanish I know some are trying to help but some are just straight up getting upset of his pronounciation and that's a little ridiculous lol chill out.

    • @DarkThorns00
      @DarkThorns00 Před 6 lety

      Eden's Aquaponics Oh I'm aware, I just want people to give him some slack, we're jist here to watch his content after all. A algunas personas se le hace dificil pronunciar algunas palabras en otro idioma, especialmente si nunca ha hablado el idioma en su vida ☺ Tal vez se acostumbro a llamarlas viya and you what they say old habits die hard

    • @DarkThorns00
      @DarkThorns00 Před 6 lety

      Eden's Aquaponics Oh I'm sorry, I though you were a native speaker I didn't mean to, I was just saying some people might have difficulties with pronunciations when speaking another language, or maybe joey was pronouncing it the way he did because he got used to it lol

    @edwinnhliziyo3945 Před 6 lety +2

    Hey I’m glad to see you keeping centrals. I hope you keep them long enough for people too see them in their full glory. I used to keep and breed all types of vieja. At the time the genus was undergoing a bit of a name change to paratheraps. Nowadays I believe they go under a variety of names. Look it up. One species that I think you would ❤️ is the “regani”. They are stunning as adults. If you ever start another CA tank try em out!

  • @intiprada381
    @intiprada381 Před 6 lety +3

    Hi Joey! I don’t know where in Maryland you are going but if you go to Baltimore you should definitely go to the Baltimore aquarium it is so beautiful and wonderfully scaped and I think that it will inspire you a lot for future aquariums👍🏼

  • @ciaravanderwoning9950
    @ciaravanderwoning9950 Před 6 lety +2

    Great video as always, I love learning about new fish I’ve never seen or heard of before. I’m more of a nano fish keeper myself, with mainly planted tanks with Bettas, and one with rasboras, but it would be cool to keep larger fish one day (when I move out and have my own place lol). Loving the angel tank by the way!!

    They are absolutely amazing to watch but I didn’t know about them till watching your channel. Thanks for sharing the education. I tend to stick to the smaller fish considering I have no room for anything that large.

    Just hearing you pronounce "Vieja" with a "J". The J in vieja is pronounced with an H sound. Try saying it like this Vieja = Vieha. Nice video BTW.

  • @cocotte9104

  • @ASAPpetinfo
    @ASAPpetinfo Před 6 lety +4

    Veija is Spanish for “old woman” so the “J” makes the “H” sound. So it would be pronounced “ve-ay-ha” or “ve-ha” depending on who you talk to.

    I will definitely consider keeping these fish. They're beautiful! You made a great choice. I my self have a Nicaraguan cichlid it's about 4.5 inches and yes a very beautiful fish. As for the video, you should cycle through a few formats. I enjoy the variety.

    I enjoyed the video. This is not a fish that I personally want to keep but it's interesting to know about them. I liked that we got to see a bit more footage of the fish just swimming around, you have a tendency not to do that, we see you set up the tank and add fish but never get a few minutes of just watching them.

    I'm really looking forward to the saltwater rack system and hoping that doesnt change in your plans, could do fish only with coral inserts if a reef is too much, get some stunners in there, emporer angel, puffers, triggers have a lot of personality too i think that would suit you more based on your chosen interests rather than a reef system you have enough to do in the gallery already realistically.

    I love the rainbow fish tank, I’d like it to stay just as it is! It’s very simple with the wood, moss, and flashy red rainbows, but very elegant. And the fish seam like they have such a fun personality! I want to imitate that tank but stock it with as many red rainbows as possible and only that one type of fish. Community tanks are interesting, but there’s just something about that tank that really interests me.
