I would never advise someone to put coral and fish in before letting the tank properly cycle. This was an unusual case where Nick brought his clownfish from home (NY) and they needed to go into a tank immediately. The turbo start and other livestock was our attempt to add at least some natural ammonia producing organisms with bacteria to get a speedy cycle. All his stuff was doing well as shown in the 5 day update!
CoralFish12g as you said yourself, you introduced ammonia to the tank the same day you put fish in it! Doesnt matter how unusual case it was... it was just wrong to do it and show it to viewers even worse!
@@tomthebomb3189 he seems to know what hes doing, but he just doesn't advise others to do it. this was just a minor emergency. he got hardy corals/fish for the tank, a great light, great filtration system, so its not something to completely worry about. this dude is just looking to complain in my honest opinion
I've had freshwater tanks since the age of 10 (I'm 25 now) but moved on to planted aquariums in 2017 and started my first reef tank in the beginning of 2019. Honestly couldn't be more glad I did because watching my corals open up and sway around brings me so much joy, especially with how gloomy it is in Seattle. And now I'm going to school for Marine Biology! Keep it up , you're an inspiration
You are an amazing reefer and an even more amazing friend and person. Our world needs more people like you in it! You always brighten up my TH-cam watching times!
Bro this makes me so happy seeing how happy he is, and now I am happy and the fish are happy and corals are happy and rocks are happy and I’m happy and your happy this is happiness
Ever since I started watching your channel about a year ago I still don’t get why your channel doesn’t have like 10 million subscribers in my opinion you deserve more subs keep at it dude love your vids
For the people asking yes that is all you need to start the cycle on a saltwater tank but do not start adding in a ton of fish at once. the bacteria in a bottle works but its still good to let the tank age before you become fully stocked.
this is so good, even if i don´t know anything about tanks or fish in general it is so interesting and fun to wach this. i like how exited they are for setting a tank
All he got was 20 gallon all in one tank Filter sock filled with carbon Media for the bacteria to colonize Live sand 20 lbs of painted dry rock A cheap light strong enough to grow corals And after the equipment he added Turbostart by Fritz Aquatics and Clarifier After that he added a few corals and two fish
@@ohhMando nah m8 A "cheap" Lamp is a 20 dollar led,not a 200 Dollar led,especially for a nano tank The Led also costs about 300 bucks where I live fucked up smh
You make it look so easy. So glad you are making it entertaining for current and new fish keepers to continue learning from someone so genuinely passionate and knowledgeable! Keep it up!
Your videos gave me the confidence to start my own freshwater aquarium. Me and my pleco are loving it more everyday as the plants grow. You’re an awesome dude! I’ll always watch your videos 💯
Thank tank looks amazing! I think the painted rich was a great choice compared to live rock it has so much more vibrant colors. One of my favorite things about aquariums is the colors and clearness.
This is so generous! I hope your friend's nano saltwater tank gives him lots of pleasure and a respite from studying...especially during finals. Happy life pretty fishies!
Watching your videos i got hooked. Ordered a tank today and it will be here tuesday!!! i I may try a reef tank next. Im sure we have some great fish stores in Cleveland Ohio area.
Hi are you able to list all the thing you used for set up as I am buying same tank and want to prepare accordingly and buy products here in Australia . Love you informative videos
all of your videos are amazing and funny and i can really tell how much you care ab ur animals. i have freshwater tanks with african frogs, shrimp, and tropical fish but you REALLY make me want to get some piranhas or a saltwater tank with CORALLLL!
Beautiful 😍 vedio...I m also want to keep marine tank..but I have budget problem...in future I will definitely get it...u r best...bro u r true hobbiest..u give us motivation for this hobby..u r so cool with others..u give boost to this hobby.. thanks for vedio... Happy New year
Omg i love this. I love everything u do for the saltwater fish community. U gave helped me inquired knowledge as I've set up my biocube. U ever in Louisiana please let me know
How do u set up a salt Aquarian so quick with regards to cycle. I’ve had tropical for 5 years but would really like to go salt as I’ve just purchased a new fluval flex 57ltr. Surely that tank wasn’t ready for livestock?
Leigh Speck no it wasn’t. He is paid by fritz so he says that the instant bacteria helps cycle, which is true but still can’t replace waiting it out. I’ve seen many horror stories about using the instant bacteria in the long run

@@SirPaulB okkkk but would u rather have the fish outright die in the bag
I see that you don't use skimmer why??is not necessary?

Bruh it's so nice to see you giving a tank to someone who actually cares
I know right everyone else he gives a tank to seems like they don’t really care
especially charlie he basically neglected his tank
The gift that keeps on giving
The difference between the the set up and the update makes my mind blown. Makes me want myself set up a saltwater tank myself. Love your videos dude.
If you buy this. I got some oceanfront property in Indiana to sell you
Dont do it like they did. Wait longer for tank to cycle
Okay but can we talk about how this man FLEW HIS FISH. What a madlad. Thats commitment, if Ive ever seen it.

This guy seems interested in fish unlike the previous guy who didn’t really care
What a fishy guy lol

You're so kind!
Positive vibes only on this channel!
I really wish i had friends like this, my friends dont appereciate fish at all
my friends are shocked that i keep fish as pets just because im an athlete
XIV frost im a stoner😂 but the friends are the same type of guys
XIV frost

Raphael Knoops one of my friends likes fish
@@xivfrost563 I think he just wanted to mention he was an athlete lol
Great video! Hugs from Brazilian aquarists

I just bought a 20 gallon Innovative Marine tank to take with me to Oklahoma State next year because of you
So many positive vibes in this video
I wish he would make a full list of the exact things. Cause I know nothing 😂
All he got was
20 gallon all in one tank
Filter sock filled with carbon
Media for the bacteria to colonize
Live sand
20 lbs of painted dry rock
A cheap light strong enough to grow corals
And after the equipment he added Turbostart by Fritz Aquatics and Clarifier
After that he added a few corals and two fish
@@ohhMando that led is a AI Prime HD that ain't no cheap shit that is more than "just grow some coral"
ilc_Mike.blmIsAJoke bro an AI prime is a cheap light lmao it’s only like 200 brand new it is sum cheap shit
@@ohhMando nah m8
A "cheap" Lamp is a 20 dollar led,not a 200 Dollar led,especially for a nano tank
The Led also costs about 300 bucks where I live fucked up smh
ilc_Mike.blmIsAJoke bro search it up on amazon “AI Prime HD” $208.90 , cheap shit
Been waiting for this video!
Love how kind you are!

You should do like a 6 month update on that tank. Very interested in that.
Wont happen. Like every tank on this channel
SergTV what do u mean by that
SergTV is it embarrassing that he has done updates in all his tanks since your ignorant comment?
Your videos gave me the confidence to start my own freshwater aquarium. Me and my pleco are loving it more everyday as the plants grow. You’re an awesome dude! I’ll always watch your videos 💯
I'm about to receive my first saltwater tank and watching your videos makes me even more exited. I can't wait!
Nice fish tank dude
Thank tank looks amazing! I think the painted rich was a great choice compared to live rock it has so much more vibrant colors. One of my favorite things about aquariums is the colors and clearness.

And so we got another addict into the game !! hahaaha love it.
Hope you enjoy the tank bro.
Im a freshwater lover but appreciate salt water dedication
They need to add some Shellfish will work so good as usual salt fish can live long and healthier 😂
I hope fritz are sponsoring this video 😂
Happy New Years George
A nem in a new tank? Wowzers.
Awesome stuff, 12g keeps rolling out the hits
Literally went youtube diving to find all the stuff about the nano reef bc I’m wanted to do one in college and the next day this comes out... lol
Thank you for being such an inspiration for so many people in this hobby. Much appreciated. 👍👍

You inspired me to get a tank thank you so much for the information that you give all of us that makes my tank do amazing
Oh my gosh I love that setup! I really need to get a saltwater tank to go with my 5 fresh water tanks.
Nice. I always wanted to have a saltwater tank with clownfish and a crab. Lol
Awesome video. Do more tank set ups or re scapes, or tank rehabs. I like your content.
This is so much like the tank I had in my dorm freshman year. I feel you on the ro/di nightmares in the hall lmao
Awesome bro. Appreciate you

this is fireeee
Amazing watching you grow up dude. You’re still a kid lol but I’ve been watching you since u were a lot younger. Amazing dude
wish I had a friend like you
Nice looking tank!
I wish I had a friend like you to help me set up my saltwater aquarium
Would love to see a update of this tank 🙂
How do u set up a salt Aquarian so quick with regards to cycle. I’ve had tropical for 5 years but would really like to go salt as I’ve just purchased a new fluval flex 57ltr. Surely that tank wasn’t ready for livestock?
Leigh Speck no it wasn’t. He is paid by fritz so he says that the instant bacteria helps cycle, which is true but still can’t replace waiting it out. I’ve seen many horror stories about using the instant bacteria in the long run
So your saying that setup is going to fail?
