NEW FISH for the NEW 20 GALLON SALTWATER AQUARIUM!!!! In the last video, we set up a 20 gallon saltwater aquarium. If you missed that video, here’s the link.
• HOW to set up your FIR...
Watch that one first. That way, this video will make more sense. Now, we went to All About Fish this weekend and purchased some new community fish. We bought two designer clownfish and two yellow tail damsels. We also witnessed a bit of a miracle in this video. We practically brought one of the damsels back to life! He jumped out onto the floor while I was feeding the other tanks, when I came back into the room he was on the floor kinda dry to the touch... But I couldn’t give up on him and after some persistence, he came back to us!! This was a real moment of triumph! Well in addition to that miracle, we successfully stocked our 20 gallon saltwater tank with four of first fish.
The yellow tail Damsel will achieve a size of 2 3/4 of an inch. They are from the Indo-Pacific; they are omnivores; are semi-aggressive and are part of the Pomacentridae family. They prefer water parameters 72-78 degrees and a salinity level of 1.020-1.025.
Amphiprion Mochavinci Clownfish will achieve a size of 3 inches. Are part of the Pomacentridae family. They originate from Fiji, Tonga. Are Omnivores and prefer water parameters identical to the yellow tail Damsel.
We will be adding our cleanup crew within the next couple of weeks. Please keep an eye out for that. Consider subscribing to the channel if you’ve enjoyed the video. Hit the notification bell, so you’ll know whenever I upload. Please like; share and comment.

🙂
Can't wait to see the tank as it grows good job dude
Thank you bro! I appreciate you!
"No, you're not pointing to the right spot, babe. It's right there." 🤣🤣🤣
😂😂
The clown fish look soo cool!
Thank you! 😁
I remember when all about fish was still open it was a great store to get my fish at.
Yea, I miss that store.
I hadn’t seen this one! Fish EMS right there!❤
🫶🏾
Wow! Fish revived, thank you very much! Enjoyed and learned a bunch of “how to” stuff from the vid. Thanks!
if that fish doesn't have a name yet... "Lazarus" cool to watch.
Cant believe how big that puffer is !!!
Yea, he’s huge.
Is that a queen angel?? Absolutely beautiful!
Yes it is!! Thank you!!
Nice come back with the fish 👏🏾👌🏾
Thank you 💪🏾💪🏾
Your tanks are beautiful.
Thank you!
i have just found your channel today and your videos are great and real as it is not staged and i like the way you have your wife as your camera person , it is realy cool and i look forward to watching more vids
Thank you! Late response but thank you for this comment!
I just upgraded from a 20gal to 40 almost a year ago, I absolutely love it!
Amazing! That’s exactly how I started! Great job, what’s the stocking like?
@@TheFishCorner I have 2 clowns, a couple damsels, chocolate chip starfish, a serpent starfish and a feather duster
Nice!! Great setup! 👏🏾👍🏾👍🏾
I really like the feather dusters and serpent starfish. I want to buy a pair of orange storm clownfish.
@@TheFishCorner do it ! Lol
Love this
Thank you.
Wow I can't believe it, you actually did a mouth to mouth with a fish and revived it, well without the mouth😂😂
Nice fish tank and an excellent video.
I love your puffer fish. I just started my tank. Two week's ago. Found out that green spotted puffer fish needs saltwater. So im so excited 😆
Thank you! Yes Hollywood is my Boy! 😁
Nice new addition to your saltwater tank! 😁
Nice. after knowing Sanjay hippo tang survived after been put in the toilet ready to flush from jumping out the tank I think most fish can survive a decent time out of water stressful no doubt.
Agreed, they can. Some just need a little assistance even when it looks like there’s no hope.
Agree on going the extra 40 and your getting 2 beautiful fish I've would have the done the same 🐠🐟😎‼️
Nice video thank you ☺️
Anytime!
Looking into getting clownfish and this video was so helpful! Also had no idea u could save a fish like that super cool
Thank you for your comment! I appreciate you!
Dont worry i had a fish my brother took out my aquarium and he placed it in a jar with water and i found the poor fish after a month and he was still alive i just put it back in the aquarium and he lived for a long time! I like your videos💪👌. Watching from Canada. Btw tomorrow im starting my first 65 gallon saltwater 😊
Wow! Fish are really resilient! And thank you for sharing! S/O to Canada 🍁 🇨🇦 That 65 gallon saltwater is going to be nice!! 🔥 please share the results when it is complete!
Hey man your channel rocks!! I love how you do and explain things in a way that we can understand as newbies. I’m looking at setting up a 36 gallon Fowlr tank in the next week myself. Once I have sand abs rock in the tank how long should I wait before adding fish… and should I keep the lights off the whole time? Saying hello from Toronto Ontario and stay safe bud. Looking forward to new videos :)
I know this is old but got to give credit to that fish CPR. I have saved a few fish myself like that. Usually after they jump out of the tank.
I wish he'd talk about cost of every feature as he goes.
The cost doesn’t matter, what I pay, may not be what you pay.
Use a gal size tea picture thats see through. The spout and lid are handy.
These are the tails, the freaky tails!! Lol
😂 😂
Nice video bro might get a saltwater tank for my Birthday 👍
Thank you Bro! You definitely should! Game changer!!
Lol I’m just setting up a new 20 gallon tank let’s go!
fish doctor indeed. Did the damsel survive afterall?
Thank you! Yes it did!! 🙌🏾
Lol too short cocktails 🔥
You already know!
Subbed!
Thank you Bro! I appreciate your support. Welcome to the channel. If you have any questions ever, don’t hesitate to ask! Stay blessed bro.
Bro just did cpr on a fish
🤣😂
Live your videos! Great job saving the fish! Hope he is doing well still. How do the damsels get along with everyone in the tank I heard they can be aggressive?
Thank you!! I really appreciate your support!! And the damsels can be aggressive but so can the clownfish. Everyone is getting along. 😁
Loved the vid, your puffer is amazing. Looking to set up a 35 gallon reef tank sometime after new year's, any stocking recommendations?
Only "must" is being reef safe, as much as I absolutely love puffers, I love corals more. Really love hawkfish & wrasses too.
Thank you. I appreciate your support and feedback! I would recommend clownfish, maybe a wrasse, banggai cardinals, hawk fish, goby and a royal gramma. Those are some reef safe fish with a lot of color to compliment your corals.
Too short!! 🤣🤣
You are very knowledgeable bud I appreciate you so what did you do for the flow and current is that why you used so much filtration?
Thanks bud. And no circulation pumps in the nano tanks. In my opinion they are too small, the flow from the filters are enough. And as far as how much filtration I use. My rule of thumb is provide enough filtration to filter 3x the tank volume. Besides, I already had the Aquaclear 70 bought the 50. Made sense for me to use both. 🤷🏾♂️
Can you put fake plants in the salt tank and the rock you have in their what is it call?
I wouldn’t. And the purple rock is called life rock if it’s fry. When it’s wet, it’s live rock. The white fry rock is base rock. So you have options.
That’s a feather duster not aiptaisia. A bergai nudibranch will eat aiptaisia or a peppermint shrimp. Both are reef friendly.
I’m familiar with feather dusters since I’ve owned them, I’m also privy to nudibranch which does eat Aiptasia. They starve unless you have a large population of aiptasia. In my opinion it’s inhumane to buy nudibranch for a death sentence. No thank you.
Great vid my dude. You earned a subscriber. Looking forward to more vids in the future. I'm just learning before deciding what size tank I should get. Any recommendations? I never had a salt water tank so I don't know what size I should get..lmk 🙏 thanks
Right on bro. Thank you for subscribing and your feedback. As for your first saltwater tank. I would consider the stocking first. What fish do you want to keep. That will tell you what size tank you need. Then second, would you plan to upgrade if you buy a smaller tank now… if you don’t want to have multi tanks, go bigger now instead of needing it later. I always recommend a 20 gallon saltwater tank as the first tank. It’s so easy to manage, easy on the pockets and allows a decent stocking but once you get the hang of things you’re going to want to upgrade. If you know you don’t want multiple tanks, and you know you want some fish that get about 4 or 5 inches… go with a 55 gallon starter kit…. A little more expensive for everything, but definitely a beautiful display tank size.
I started with a 20 gallon yrs ago and just grew my tank as my fish and confidence in my fish keeping skills grew.
@@TheFishCorner thank you for the response it's refreshing to see you respond to your audience and your willing to help newbies like myself. I definitely made the right choice in subscribing. I'm doing my research on what fish I want to put in there and still learning about their growth, temperament, what there role will be in the tank. I'm leaning more on your idea of just having one tank and not planning to upgrade as I want this tank in my living room. I'm not worried about budget soo much as I been saving for this. I been looking at the red sea aquariums as they come with everything from what people have told me but after seeing your videos
I don't know which route is cheaper. Maybe I'm asking too much information. I don't want to blow up your channel by asking a ton of questions as I'm sure your a busy person. but I would like feedback on if you think is it better to build your own tank or just buying a set up with everything for example the red sea reefer 250 54 gallon is around $1400. I gave you that price as that's what I currently have in mind to spend. (Budget) to give you a better Idea I fell in love with your 150 gallon tank which I think is next your 20 gallon. I don't necessarily want the eels in there but the fish you have in there like the fox face rabbit fish the queen angel maybe some damsel's and some clown fish. Maybe not the puffer fish. But that's the kind of tank I want.
I’m about to start in a 37 gallon tank. Never done saltwater aquariums. Any advice brother? Nice set up you have in that room bro!
Thank you bro! That’s what I upgraded them to. I recommend checking out my how to set up your fish saltwater tank video.
Okay okay you are from Sacramento or some where from California cuz you slapping that too short lol I'm definitely going to stay watching you cuz you're a local guy
Thank you Bro! I appreciate your support mane! And I’m from Oakland, grew up on Too Short 🤘🏾 but living in Antioch. I have family In Sacramento. 🎯
@@TheFishCorner I'm born and raised in San Francisco I've been doing fish tanks since I was 11 years old my favorites are the flowerhorns I have a fish tank at home and then I help run a recovery home for men and I have 100 gallon there too to teach these guys a new hobby and a new way of life
I think you have some of the best saltwater information videos out. You inspired me to start a 20 gallon salt talk. I think I'll start with purchase my water like you did. My question is, if I purchase live sand can I use dry rock. I don't want to risk getting any pest. What brand of live sand and beneficial bacteria can I use to jump start my take. I want to start with 2 or 3 clown fish or some Damsels. Thank you and keep up with the good information
Hey what’s that name on the front glass the two thing that you have on there
The dimensions of the other larger tank? Is there a video of you setting it up?
It’s a petsmart 150. You can look it up online. I don’t remember the exact dimensions.
a few days before placing the fish.when that cycale
You don’t have to if you know what you’re doing. Live sand, live rock and pre-made saltwater.
Thats a feather duster
Idk man, I’ve owned feather dusters before.... I’m not so sure that’s what those are. They look a little thin to be aiptasia and don’t have the tubes to be feather worms.... but we’ll see, as they get bigger.
Wasnt that a pulsing xenia coral , not an anenome ? Which would explain why your dip treatments arent killing them 😂.. i see its 2 yrs later but is that what you found out?
2yrs old now. 🤷🏾♂️
I’m looking to setup a new saltwater tank and would lots of input and suggestions where to start and what is really a good stepping ground. Thank you
Rio Vista in California
💯 I’m in Antioch 👍🏾
Please can you help me with one 10 15 or 20 gallon like the one you have
I got you.
🐟 💪 ✌
🍻💯💪🏾👍🏾
How do you keep your Lionfish from eating your Tomato Clownfish?
Unfortunately my lion fish was killed by my Miniatus….
Can we combine corals and clown fish? I'm super new to this and I'm still searching stuff before I do anything. :D
Every fisherman knows that trick don't think ive ever seen anyone do that on a pet fish though lol
😂😂
Were is a saltwater fish going to get worms 🪱 of the freshwater kind? Should you feed them things from the ocean? Because they are from the ocean.
What is drip acclamation?
Did you miss it in the video. It’s using an air line tube to slowly add the water from the tank into the container holding the new fish.
Can you do a video on cycling a tank.... fishless
Can’t help you there bro, I don’t cycle my tanks that way. It’s too much work to be honest, so much easier to add a fish and allow the tank to naturally go through the cycling process.
I know this is an older video, but I would suggest not acclimating new fish in such shallow containers where they can jump out at all...a small bucket would be a much safer option!
How do you know if when your tank was good for fish?
Experience first and foremost.
But secondly, if you set it up the exact way I did, you’ll be good.
Buy your saltwater, buy your live sand... buy live rock or dead rock depending on your concerns.... but just those two out of three things will allow you to add fish as soon as the water clears up. Because live sand will leave the tank a little cloudy temporarily.
I jus set up a 50 gallon tank & I know this video is pretty old but I’m hoping you can help me as I’ve been to my LFS multiple times & been searching UA-cam for hours.
So I added two damsels when my ammonia & nitrate levels were low, but after acclimating the fish & them being in there for a few days I woke up to them being on the bottom of the tank & struggling to breathe. I tested my water and the ammonia was quite bit high, is that why they were struggling to breathe or was it due to lack of oxygen? the only thing I had on the tank is a filter fit for up to 55 gallon tanks, no wave maker at the time(I know those can help get oxygen in). I’ve learned you can use Prime to detoxify ammonia so now that my first damsels have died I started using that for the next fish I get, but I’m not sure if the ammonia is why they died or not.
Also, I have the 55g filter, but should I add another filter like you have on your 20 gallon? Watching your video makes me think I should add another
Hopefully I answered your question bro.
I enjoyed the video thinking of starting my 1st salt tank is a 55 gallon ok to use for salt ? Thank in advance
Thank you for your support and feedback! A 55 gallon would be a great saltwater tank! It will give you so many options!
Doctor fish
😂
What size tank is next to the 20 salt where the puffer is ?
It’s a 150 gallon. But they’re in a 225 gallon now.
@@TheFishCorner awesome bro I’m barley getting into saltwater !! I have a 20 gallon I started with now I wanna do a 125g
Is it overstocked? Went to this pet store once, and this women refused to sell me a single clown fish for a 20 gallon tank because it was "too small" of a tank... and instead was encouraging me to go with shrimp & a snail.. with coral.. and no fish. Again, not being a troll or negative person, genuinely asking because in my experience, two stores have told me a small clown is not allowed in a 20 gallon tall tank :(
Dude I love both of your tanks and the choice of fish you did. But can I asks a question? I am planning to get a 2 clownfish, 1 blue damsel anf a fire gobby. Is it fine to put them all at once even though your tank isn't that fully cycled? Btw, my tank is currently cycling now for a week, and I don't know if it is alright to add that many fish at once in a tnak that hasn't been fully cycled yet.... Or should I get a pair of clownfish first then next month is the gobby and damsel? Thank you very much
Btw, I really am proud of you when you saved that damsel. My fish jump once too before and I've been trying to do that to revive him, but he always ended up dying....
Thank you for your support and feedback bro! Truly appreciate it! As for your question, idk how you started your tank. When I started this 20 gallon, I bought live rock, saltwater and live sand. Which allowed me to add fish right away. I’ve never been a fan of fish less cycles, because you need ammonia to help the cycling process get started and fish waste etc to keep your beneficial bacteria alive and not crash the cycle. So I look for hardy fish that can withstand the cycling process. You’ve been cycling your tank a week, I would go ahead and add the goby first because they are the most peaceful out of all the other fish you want. And adding him last can possibly cause him to get bullied…Then in a couple weeks add your two clowns and a week after that, add your damsel.
@@TheFishCorner Thank you so much! Keep doing a great work man!
Are you gonna put corals in the 20g?
Not sure, maybe as the tank matures. I will need to add a HOB protein skimmer. Maybe a refugium....
I just wanted to start out showing what’s possible on the most basic scale of Saltwater fish keeping.
How much did it cost
Sry dude but having damsels and clowns together is rly bad. In addition the tank is way to small for 4 fish.
Damn.
There blue tangs bud they are not damsels
No bud, they are not blue tangs. Might want to look em up.
Definitely yellow tail damsels
U got ripped off. I get Wyoming whites for 50
I’m sure I did! The prices definitely varies from place to place. I’m thinking of grabbing some mocha storms.... they want like $160 for a pair.... 🤷🏾♂️
You need to get rid of the predator fish. The hobby is corals with fish and invertebrates. The tomato clown with the two smaller was a mistake ! You made an even bigger mistake with the damsels from hell. You should have chosen chromis. You have much to learn. Your pet stores are raping you ! Buy used equipment for pennies on the dollar !
