Picking up Baby Hippo Tang!! 😊 (135g - 5/17/2020)

- Hippo Tang always have a special place in my heart. Ever since I rehomed the baby hippo tang that was in the 45g years ago, I have always wanted to keep another one when I have the right system. Even though the 4 foot long 135g may not be able to host this hippo tang for his entire life, I look forward to sharing my home with him for at least a few awesome years!
This week we also unboxed a care package from Reef Nutritions. Chad sent over some Apex Pods to help seed my systems, as well as TDO Chroma Boost of various sizes for me to try out. So far the fish are loving the Chroma Boost!
Lastly I put my DIY skills to the test by build a skimmer stand... it went OK...!

Emily is savage af
R.I.P. Inappropriate Reefer.
He was a good man,
Unfortunately he was not able to pull through the severe burns he sustained from his wife.
He will be missed.
@Airshow clips from Washington it's a joke my guy
@Airshow clips from Washington it's a joke. A 2yr old joke at that, if you couldn't tell he still makes videos After this one so relax little man.
@Airshow clips from Washington will sorry to say it but me, life or the real world doesn't care about your feelings.
I’m yelling at the screen. Measure from the base of the skimmer!!! 🤣
Me too lol
Ryan’s Reef fr😂🤣
I was thinking immediately.... nooo you have to measure from te base of the skimmer now.. 🤪😂😂😂👍💪😅
Emily’s commentaries are hilarious!!!!
Excited to watch him grow. We love our Hippo tang (Pablo). Was one of the reasons why we bought a bigger tank... He has a great personality and is a big goof ball. Sleeps on the frag rack in our tank.
Glad you mentioned that Hippos need big tanks. They are big, they are fast, they crash into things, they are ick magnets and they beat the hell out of each other if you try to keep more than one.
Yours is beautiful. Good luck with him and good luck finding him a big new home when he outgrows yours.
Cheers,
Chris
Every time I watch this video over, the skimmer shenanigan's kills me!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol!!
I just love Ur try and error stuff. Much more informative than most guys just showing "thats the way this is how it works"
Let me finish my water change then ill finish watching already liked thou
literally doing the same thing😂
Got that water mixing lol
Totally feel you. I have a Flame Tail Bristletooth, and she is in my 40 (she is a very small tang) and will be upgraded to my 4 ft 55 gal when she outgrows it. It’s only day two and so far won’t touch the seaweed but I’m in love. First dip into the tang world
FIRST
Nice🤓
How do you find a baby tang?
😅😅
Inappropriate Reefer hi man in hava a frag of ganipora, why she doasnt want to open her tetancels? U know the tips of that?
Dang it
Nice. Good luck with it.
Emily cracks me up!
I'm just here for the InappropriateWifey
😂
Love your Fish!!
i’ve been waiting for this moment forever!!!
yooooooooooooooooo i love these 2!!!!! you guys are soooo good together and soooo funny i love it keep them coming please!!!!
I love what your doing it’d really making me want to get into reef tanks
It’s like finding Nemo, dory (blue tang) hangs out marlin and Nemo (clown fish) at the end and live with them!
Hi , great channel , love the vids and the tanks, try soaking 1 feed a day in garlic juice, put a cube of frozen in a fish net , put the fish net in a cup of tank water with the garlic juice and let it defrost for as long as u want , when ready pick the net up , and in the net garlic food, mysis, brine etc, and in the cup the phosphate enriched water that doesn’t foul your tank , I kept multiple tangs over the years and this was the hack that made it possible without whitespot
The magic dark forces of volume have returned yet again. Please vanquish this fiend! Also, really nice eyebrows.
Thank you for all your hard work. Your channel is awesome!
If the clowns are named Abu, name the hippo tang Genie! Go for an Aladdin theme 😅
Great vid man as always. Nice to see the tank start coming together
Mokyi I always point the intake of the skimmer straight out so I can see if there's any buildup or obstruction in the hole. Cheers!
Your clowns fish’s are very beautiful the small tang is very cute also 👌👌👌
Brand new tank and bobs kids have already tagged along @13:43 haha
Tangs are awesome and you can’t go wrong with a hippo tang
Maryland reefers in the house!!!
We quarantine at Capital Aquarium too in manassas, But we have a huge coral selection as well! Come check it out next time.
Congrats on the baby hippo tang. It’s a nice addition to the 135. That TDO chroma is da bomb. 😀 Rated #1 last year by BRS of best pellet food.
might want to get that aiptasia off the media ball at 13:43
Wu-Tang-Tang
No kidding I just got a baby hippo Friday!! Awesome I named mine Ellen
Lol
A video of you getting a blue hippo tang from your old channel just got recommended to me today😳
The 135 is looking good. 👍
This guy was worried about adding tangs to the 150 when he had a blue tang in his 40 gallons. Lmfao. Love the channel tho and I think tang trio will be good
I was screaming at the screen over the water level 😂😂😂😂😭
Hi moki, it's me nano tank addict! The white spots on healthy blue hippo tangs are actually bruises that they get from sleeping in and around the rock work! At night they will nestle themselves in weird and tight nooks and crannies in the rock and sleep. When they move around their sleeping spots they'll get bruises in the shape of those white spots. I hope this info helps you!
QT a Hippo from a LFS. Too late so I hope it'll be 👌
That video kinda funny the way u get in the car with the mask looks like u just rob the mangrove from someone😂😂😂
Love the Tang this time you get to keep him 👍
Keep your eye on the white spots, the disappearance and reappearance of white spot is how the disease works, once the parasite is in visible form on the fish they drop off into your sand bed, there’s an incubation period and then the release back into the water column, re-infecting your fish. I’m no expert on white spot or fish disease, but I suffered a total tank whiteout when introducing a yellow eye kole tang. It started exactly like this, about 3 spots and then all clear for 2 weeks, when all of a sudden it exploded. Be extremely vigilant over the coming weeks, if white spots reappear, remove all fish and treat immediately, it’s a sad lesson I learnt the hard way. I read a large amount of online content where I’d convinced myself it must have just been some sand on the fish, I’d also read it’s normal in tangs to show “stress spots” this is sadly not true, if spots reappear you have white spot in your system, and the only solution is treatment in a QT tank. I didn’t follow this kind of advice and chose to follow the guidance I wanted to hear or read. Love your content, fingers crossed nothing comes back 👍🏻
Is it better to place a hippo in the tank first?
Shasha2322 it’s best to put a tang in last I’ve found. Obviously sometimes that isn’t possible if you’ve had several fish die and only the tang is left, but tangs are the bullies of the reef keeping world, by putting them in last you’re not putting new fish into “tang territory”. Hope this helps
If the skimmer is too loud, I out a piece of silicone mate below the skimmer stand that silences it.
I had a baby blue hippo tang that had a couple white spots and was really adjusting but then a couple days later it was full of ich and it was horrible. The ich killed the hippo tang and two of my other fish so I would be very very careful. Maybe put in some ich-x or something to prevent or stop anything that can happen.
I am always wary of people who claim QT-and hats off if they can do it right! When I had a shop we had individual off the system tanks for QT- a period of time with no additions to the system-observation and treatment. Super labor intensive.
“10 inch’s you wish” how he miss that joke lol
I wish I had a tank big enough for a tang
Emily needs her own show ! She def adds humor to the channel lol
You can have one as long as you just replace it with another one when it gets to big lol
@@zacharymunzinger1710 You don't even know how big his tank is... you cannot say that, he many only have a 15 gallon. Even smaller tang species need between a 50-55 gallon minimum with extremely good filtration, clean up crew, and if you wish... Corals for their added benefits.. all varying depending on the type of coral.
Elysia Crispata not true
Reef Escape is one of my favorite stores when I go to NOVA
Great to see Dory settling in with the Nemos. Keep the updates coming!
I had a little hippo tang like that who grew for 3 years. He passed away from a chromis attack, I really miss him.
Hey ive gone through this with both my hippos and they lived every one of them but at the beginning and sometimes randomly get white spot only them for that I do herbal ick on food soaked once a day but I think they go away on there own regardless . Its like if hippos are prone to it easily with stress but it can be like if tank is to small and they hate skimmer bubbles if it is in the main display it irritates them same as the corals at times. Ull see then rubbing on rocks but none the less just keep feeding. I know its that cuz if it's the same as me they will be eating and u and I know with ick they stop eating and sometimes stop swimming as much. U might want to do nori it seems to help them get rid of it faster like if it boost up immune response.
I hope that's not aiptasia in the sump @ 13:43 ?
Screaming at my screen when you didn't wash the pvc bits off the stand
Love your videos!🔥
I think Lapis would be a pretty cool name for that tang. That or Dory lol
Gloria because hippo and madagascar movie its also a prettt cool name
You should have got a second Tang to put in at the same time. Not one from the same family tho of course. Maybe even a third lol
Awesome flip flops i also have a pair of those and i got some weird looks when walking with them in public the other day
No qt on a Tang from a lfs? Ich management here you come.
Copepods in the reefer!!
You should drill some small hole on the pvc tube so you don't have standing water!!!!
In the box is live rock i reckon
@1:46 oml emily 😂😂
I had to go back to look at the sandals lol
Measuring the water level 😂
Thsts a nice saw u got there fella
great vid but why you no buy dewalt!!? just kiddin, tank looks amazing.
Too funny, I was wondering why the level did not change too, did not make sense... LOL
I think it’s some sort of pods or live food
The hippo tang call it Dorry
I’m here
2 clownfish 1 tang sounds familiar
.
.
ههههههههههههههههههههههههههههههههههههه
Next time just set the bottle of pods in the tank or sump with its top off, let the pods come out slowly and works well instead of dumping them in. Thanks for the videos.
點解唔使quarantine就直接入主缸嘅
Peixe muito lindo! Parabéns 😁
Also starburst would b a good name
Cleaner shrimp will feast on pods
what are those white dots on your back glass, Ive started to notice those in my 180
Spiorbid Worms 😎
Lovely 😍
I hate to say it buddy, but the white spots are ich. If they went away, it just means they released from the fish and are reproducing. Hopefully your fish can resist them naturally, but you for sure have at least ich in your system.
At least it's not velvet or brook.
Thx for the video great one 👍
I'm almost sure I saw a nice sized aiptasia in the sump when you were tossing in the pods man I hope it wasnt. I'm breaking my tank down now just to try to avoid those.
I think it’s a pice of macro algae
@@The_Ryu_32 I hope so
That yellow wrasse may kill the cleaner shrimps
Don't use too much alcohol inside a car , gel is more safe. Keep safe and happy reef
measure from the BASE of the skimmer! lol
Your right. Fish have been absurdly expensive since quarantine started. The fact the my lfs is selling ocellaris clownfish for 40$ is absurd.
*grabs popcorn and waits for tang police*
They are late to the party lol
baby dory 🤣
because you added another object in and it would make the water level rise!
Adding a fish without quarantining it?!! WTH :O
Yeah- that’s a surprise to me too.
10 inches you wish! LMAO
What are you going to stock in the 135? SPS dominant?
I don't like the foam covers for my mp10s they get algae covered and are tough to clean and are detritus traps.
#reefsquad
9:33 hahaha best moment :D
Yo! I hope you name the tang Wu. So it’ll be known as Wu Tang 😝
Damnnnn with the Milwaukee
Video paused. It's a box of pods?
Ayeeee
