Im in Hawaii right now and was swimming with yellow tangs, triggers etc. swimming with these guys in their natural habitat definitely gives a better respect for the reefs and their inhabitants
I always enjoy your videos. I watch them even if they do not pertain to me because you seem to be such a fun fellow and I’m always up for learning more! I have a 6 ft. 125 gallon reef aquarium and it is so much fun. I love connecting with people like you on RUclips. Thanks! I’d like to find a wave maker that doesn’t kill fish. If you could make a video about that it would be helpful. Lol some are just more dangerous than others I guess!
Lol, my fave in the “with caution” category is your thumbnail fish - the Huma Huma Trigger. Pyramid butterflies are stunning in groups but you’re right about the long-nose, it’s a beauty. I first saw a Harlequin Tusk in 2010 at the Vancouver Aquarium and it took me months to find out what it was (that was before I had my first reef tank). But here in NA, they’ve only been somewhat available for about the last six months or so. I’d get one in a heartbeat, and sacrifice being able to have shrimp. Excellent video Alex! As usual....👍🏻
Reef Dork it is reef safe with caution lol mines is in my mixed reef and he picks at only the crabs when he is hungry. I just have to feed him and he does nothing to my corals or snails. He will though pick at my hermits. One time I was too lazy to feed them in the morning. And he ate 5 hermits when I came back lol never again 😂
@@ReefDork my opinion nothing more - kinda lose the tank contents with the wallpaper - on vid, maybe different in the flesh. I love your vids and you trying to be funny, which it is
Great video! I have a 32 gallon biocube with 3 trochus snails, tiger tail cucumber 3 blue streak cardinals, 1 blue legged hermit crab and a ywg/tiger pistol shrimp pair. I saw a few dwarf angels (coral beauty and the flame angel) and then I saw a Genicanthus species (I think it was a swallowtail). Could one of them thrive in a 32 gallon biocube do you think?

Btw never knew how territorial triggers are until one literally tried to take a chunk out of my leg lmaoo
🤣 Brilliant!
The Top Gear reference was hilarious, nice work!

Great Stig reference. :)

Thanks! Humu humu is a reef safe 'with extreme caution' 😂

your tank is looking good
😎
Keeping flame angels in pairs highly reduces the chances of nipping corals.
Harems even cooler. 😄
@@AbsoluteZero6714 I would like to correct what I wrote. I have 2 pairs and they nip everything.
@@LightSearch I see. Worth the risk though to me as I love angelsz
I love the videos of Picasso triggers attacking people lol
So he doesn't talk about the Picasso trigger
Hi. Is there a reason you didn't paint the rear glass black/blue
I just love seeing through two panels of clear glass

Chris seems like a nice guy. I would like to give him a hug and buy him a pint.
Um okay
@@Abdul-qr4bd No pint for you!
O00ooo0o0oi but I still get a hug I see. 😉
what are the pair of (buttefly?) fish at 1:03 called?
Pyramid butterflyfish

Far too small I'm afraid - you'd need a tank 3x that size for a genicanthus 😔
@@ReefDork Thanks! That's what i figured. They are beautiful fish though.
Actually this issue depends on luck. For example my Blue tang nipping on my soft corals, generally it consider reef safe.
No one got the stig reference???? HOW-??
I had a coral beauty it was a model citizen for years then decided it liked my iron man acans 😕
😔
Cherub may be a better choice as a angle fish !
Yeah but they're boring 🤓🐠
lets just disagree and say either fish will work @@ReefDork
I knew your reef safe fish wouldn’t be that Picasso.
My flame angel is a dick. I'm trying to catch him at the moment.
🤣
