I lost my yellow tang a few months ago. Ugh velvet. I feel bad for anyone who had say for example a trio of yellow tangs in a qt tank to die right before their prices shot up.
@@eatsleepreef9565 your tank is 180 gallons between the sump, and display. The display is only 130 gallons. Please be wise when making purchases, and posting to UA-cam. This is what activists use as leverage to get bans put in place.
Any LFS selling a yellow tang for more than $120 is gouging hobbyists. Don’t cry to us about online retailers if you are an LFS selling tangs for that much.
It’s dumb to support those prices, the “reactor” is absolute silly, I can’t believe someone actually wanted to buy 1, I personally think you need to be able to see the carbon within the reactor, how are you to know if it starts tumbling? Sponges could move. For what he spent printing that hunk of plastic, he could have bought a decent reactor. This guy must think his viewers are poor or something, like he built a nice mixing station for himself, and then did a cheap ass POS mixing station for his viewers! That’s straight disrespect. Even if We can’t afford a top notch set up, we’re all smart enough to know how to scale down a project. This guy needs to remember that his viewers support him, he don’t support us. He straight thinks he’s better then his viewers. And I know several people that watch his vids that have a tank 10x better then his. Even if I forget all about his dis respectful ways. There’s still the issues of his advice straight sucks. Ok so you dropped 500 on a tang, and your QT them. But with what? What levels? How often? He said nothing about anything helpful. Nothing, and I know I’m gonna get some reply’s sayin I’m wrong, That’s fine, we’re all entitled to our opinions. Just remember my opinions are based on facts, everything I said, you can find in his videos. He needs to understand that he’s not better then his viewers. We made him. We’re the reason he’s here. And we can also be the reason this channel flops.
I bought a yellow tang for 40 dollars a couple years back and just traded him in at the pet store. (He became very aggressive) talk about an ROI lol Then I found a baby scopas tang for 20$ at at the LFS I couldn't spend so much for the yellow tang even though they are so beautiful
Welcome back everyone to another episode of a Waterbox aquarium commercial and not a hobbyist video. Be honest that every video you do now is a paid promotion. Be transparent! Be honest!
What part is this video was a comercial? Me going to pick up a fish 🤣🤣 I want more commercials like this 😂. Or no wait the comercial was me showing my custom made reactor right 🤣🤣 love seeing the support either way brother 🤙🏼😊
I remember when I lived in Hawaii in late 80's, yellow tangs were $13.00, wow!
Crazy, we’re still buying yellow tangs for $20.00 down here. Sucks they raised prices up there
I plan to see how you will add the yellow and purple tang when you already have the salfin in the tank established. Great content as always..
just printing parts a Reactor im tring do out a ol R/O canister
Thanks for sharing info. Was wondering what was going on.
The yellow tang didn’t eat a thing. Hope it works out well. Also if a fish is doing really bad. It’s ok to go to full strength copper to help save it
I had fed him an hour before lol
Can you share your design for the carbon reactor?
Why not use epoxy to seal it?
would you be willing to share the STL files? this is awesome!!
I second that 🙏
Me too

just lost my 2 during texas freeze. not buying them again at these prices unfortunately
@@8thWonderCards that has to suck. I know a few are switching to Scopus tangs now.
Use PVC with printed endcaps to save print time
Smart idea 🤙🏼
I hope those are your last tangs cause purples are jerks. Last and smallest tang I added and he tried to take over from day 1.
What kind of lid do you have on your QT tank. How did you get it to fit with the filter?
It’s made by the tank manufacture your sold at petco
my local LFS still selling yellow TANG for £95
Yellow tang?
It's not true about qt convert tangs they are actually easy to keep in qt. As I had loads in qt few the years
You could easily optimize that printing time to 8-12 hours IMP.
do u have stl parts u do
Dude 8 tangs for a 120 gallon tank too many
This is a no tang police zone 🤣🤣
Also what tank are you referring to? Mine isn’t a 120. I have the Waterbox 180
@@eatsleepreef9565 ignore it its perfectly fine if you have the right filtration lol i have 12 fish in my 75 gallon lol
No hate but isn’t the the 180.5 a 130 gallon display

$500 for a yellow tang?! Um no. I know the prices has skyrocketed but no way I'm paying more than $150.
