Jake - your videos are not only informational, not only educational, and not only entertainment - your videos have the ability to make me feel better if I'm having a crappy day. You are doing the world a valuable service with your enthusiasm. Thanks for that.
Loved this! Great tips. 5 in one hit is impressive! I’m planning a move in the next 3-4 weeks and dreading catching my fish in my 82cm high reef tank! Looks ace but super tough to work on 🙄.
Reefbuilders is my absolute favourite CZcams channel. I loved this video and I love all your content, it’s fun and educational and I never feel like your trying to sell me something. I always learn something every time I watch one of your videos and I just want to thank you.
Fish catching is one of the banes of the hobby for me, I cannot believe how incredibly easy you make it look! I'm picking up a specimen container right now! Bravo sir!
Wow, pretty impressive how easy you made that look, I've always thought it was near impossible to net fish in a reef tank. I'd like to see how you do it in a taller aquascaped reef tank. I have a clear net for catching reef fish while diving, but have never seen the clear plastic specimen tub technique.
I’m newish to your channel Jake but wow your videos are super informative and very helpful. I’m currently on a 60 gallon project and your videos are helping me along the way 👍🏻
Great job Jake in corralling the yellow tangs together in one take. 😊 introducing more tangs into my 600g will be somewhat of a challenge but I plan on putting 4-5 more in there with the 7 I already have under cover of darkness. I have plenty of rock work for them to hide as well as alot of swim throughs for the fish so I’m hopeful I’ll be able to pull it off.
Awesome video. I've been using a similar method to catch fish for years, except I use fish bags which is easier to place in a packed reef tank. No extra frags this way and less stressful for the fish.
I love the tang fish family so much. I tried to get set up for them about 6 years ago but we ended up down sizing and selling my 180 and don't have much room right now to set something up. I enjoyed this video and the techniques you used to make this work. I would like to get a 24x48x12 50 gallon aquarium at some point and try again.
Your a Great fisherman! No rod and reel thanks man I enjoyed the cheap thrills... People love fishing it's kid friendly too. Keep up the fun show can't wait for the new articles to read Id love to join the reef builder team tell evan I say hey
When it comes to a favorite tang, mine is the Mimic Tang since it's a more affordable option for a yellow Tang and buying them bigger and fatter is better since they have been in the store being fed the same flakes and pellets you will feed them at home. My Mimic Tang, named Melanie, is very active and loves her Ocean Nutrition Formula Two Flakes and Hikari Seaweed Extreme Sinking Pellets and even fights the damsels for the food. She's one of the more docile tangs I know but I will be adding a powder brown, a sailfin, and a white tail bristlerooth in her tank with her and maybe I'll try to redecorate the tank to reset it and they will be added at the same time.
Could you make a video on damselfish? They are beautiful fish and a shoal of them looks incredible but they are demonized by many but the way they form groups in nature and create their algae gardens is very interesting and possible a fun addition to some reef tanks.
Jake you are a genius. Been trying to catch a gem tang for the last couple of days with no luck then I remembered this video bang second try and got him
i added my 4 tangs powder blue/regal/yellow /mimic all at same time and think was key! 6ft 2ft 2ft and 90% get on well and found most aggressive at lights out for some reason!
That was some VERY impressive Wrangling;) And YES you do make people's day;) Yes, your technique is impressive! And at the perfect time as we are trying to catch 3 yellow tangs in a crowded tank to separate, and or (we now know;) we can as you call it, "reset the skool" in another tank.. Awsome possum, great stuff!! Buying a couple a containers about tomorrow ;)
Merci Jake Trop Cool c’est toujours un plaisir de voir tes vidéos même si pour moi il est compliqué de comprendre car je ne parle pas la langue de Shakespeare 👍♥️👍
I want a fowlr sand tank with nothing but angel, tangs, angel fish, and sand goby. Is it possible? Also, you can add plastic decor to a saltwater tank???
I can't imagine how much 5 Yellow Tangs cost. Haven't seen them for sale for years at my LFS. I've read that you can have multiple tangs if they are different genus? That all said, I have two 6" Blue Tangs. I have some chasing, but it isn't bad. They've been together since they were much smaller though. Wish they were a pair, but no luck with that.
Same issue here, I got two hippos ones slightly smaller. I took him when a friends tank crashed and they were fine but i started noticing the bigger one chasing after the other and the little one hiding.. I am now revisiting trying again now that I am looking into getting a 125 6ft tank. Maybe it was due to the small tank. I am gunna try these tips. After seeing aggression I separated them. And my LFS wont take them cause they have 12” one there and he looks absolutely miserable in a 2x2, takes up the whole space
@@MaxK-p7y I have mine in a 125. Both are about 5-6”. If you can, go bigger. I am looking at a 220, but it is still 6’ long, which doesn’t really change a whole lot, but it does offer me the opportunity of adding some other larger tangs…I wonder if having 3-4 Hippos would be better than 2.
@@johnatella8498 my budget isnt quite ready for a 220 yet but this alone will be a substantial upgrade for them both. Its a 125 6ft long too? How bad is the aggression? Any bites out of the fins or such?
Wow that could not have gone better! Any word on wild yellow tang availability improving? I want to add one but they are rare in Australia and cost over $1000. We cannot import captive bred either.
Using the reset method, could I add two yellow and one purple tang together simultaneously? With the idea of acclimating them together in the same bucket before introducing them into the tank? Thanks in advance 🙏🏽

He was amazing man I miss his video alot
Quite possibly the most amazing fish catching I’ve ever seen, incredible 🙌
Omg Jake, you made catching those tangs look super easy. When you got a four in at once, damn. Next time I see you, I’m calling you the Tang Whisperer
That was awesome to see how skilled, thoughtful and careful you are.
watching this years later, we miss jake.
That black tang is a BOSS!!! Such a beautiful fish! Looks amazing fully matured!
Jake was awesome! I recently returned to the hobby and started to whats reef builders. His excitement is contagious!
Mate, when you caught the 5 yellow tangs.... was like winning the world cup of reefing, so exiting! 🥳
Loved this! Great tips. 5 in one hit is impressive! I’m planning a move in the next 3-4 weeks and dreading catching my fish in my 82cm high reef tank! Looks ace but super tough to work on 🙄.

That was just awesome to watch. Especially the 5 gang all at once!!!
Ok, that tang capture was hilarious! This should be a mandatory training video for every LFS employee.
I've tried to inform stores of using cups and instead of nets but old curmudgeon store owners admonish younger employees for using anything but nets
EPIC!!! If you hadn't captured the footage I would have never believed it!
Love this video, so great tips for catching fish!! really impressed! Catching ten yellow tangs is not luck, that’s pure talent. Great job Jake🙌🏻

The video title was how to put tangs together but the real gem was how to catch fish!
I’m newish to your channel Jake but wow your videos are super informative and very helpful. I’m currently on a 60 gallon project and your videos are helping me along the way 👍🏻
OMG, your catching skills are at top level :) And those yellow tangs are just perfect!

That’s nice , I do the same but with my sump , have light and a small wave maker and when they got comfy down there , back to the penthouse again 😅👍👍👍
U inspired me so many times

wow that was the most amazing fish catching I've ever seen! lol
Well done Jake that was great 👍
It's so funny to watch you enjoy catching the 5 tangs together lol. Vey well done!
this video gave me so much enjoyment. GOOD SHIT with those catches. impressive
I share your excitement of catching fish more easily than expected

The timing of this video was perfect. My new powder blue came in today
Awesome video and some great techniques to make things less stressful on the fish! 🙌 Love the enthusiasm as always! Nice work! 👍
Appreciate your vids. Seeing how awesome the studio looks is always inspiring. My first tank (18g AIO) just hit 1 year up and running in October.
Jake, that moustache is a typical Tang Police moustache though.

Well done Jake. Been watching your videos from the start.
Great video and catch of tangs! 😁
This was fun to watch Jake, tks!
Best fish catch hands down of all time
Yellow Tang Whisperer!
Always memorable the 5 at once lol
Very impressive with the 5 yellow tangs at the end man 👍🏻 amazing jake

Wow, 5 tangs in a single catch. This is some of the best CGI I've ever seen🤣
This video way actually really cool. I know you had to cut the video when you caught the 5 yellow tangs so you could yell and curse properly.
Really good video. I know how hard it can be to catch fish in an aquarium. Really good advice to move away from nets.
Jake you are a genius. Been trying to catch a gem tang for the last couple of days with no luck then I remembered this video bang second try and got him
Great video. And I just wanted to share the love of Biota for aquaculturing the Yellow Tang.
Enjoy your channel and all the educational information, tips and tricks!
Damn Jake, that was actually really incredible man. Well done!
Awesome video. Taught me a lot.
Man I never even though of using a specimen cup in conjunction with a net. Awesome job!
Jedi level skill!
My favorite fish is the yellow tang always has been you're the man you're the man
I cannot believe you just pulled off that magic!
🙌 Jake and Evan that was brilliant 👏👏👏
HHahha I’m dying right now. So funny how you caught all five in one go!
Good day Jake, You can never have too many Yellow Tangs
Great Video!
You should really think about growing a horseshoe style moustache. Made my day seeing your moustache.
That was properly amazing
11:07 miss you Jake

Rip Jake 😢😢😢😢
It’s like trying to wrangle greased hogs
It's great to see reef builders doing so well that they can afford a cgi department to put 5 tangs in a specimen container. Good information.
So amazing it’s hard to believe
Nice catch.
In my opinion it is very difficult to choose a appropiate fish stock for a tank.
Maybe you can talk about that at Reef Therapy.
is the instant nano from vlog 20 still up and running? if so it would be awesome to get an update on it. also whats the coral above the tang at 6:06?
Kool dad mustache. Your tang catching kung fu is strong.
Do you believe an acclimation box would also cut down on aggression when adding a single tang of a different type?
Joe Adam’s = yellow tang Steve Erwin. Great job.
Merci Jake Trop Cool c’est toujours un plaisir de voir tes vidéos même si pour moi il est compliqué de comprendre car je ne parle pas la langue de Shakespeare 👍♥️👍
As always great videos Jake
shallow tanks help alot with that method. it wont work with deep tanks as well.
Thank you! This was so helpful to see. Any advise on capturing anemones that are attached to the rock work out of a tank?
I want a fowlr sand tank with nothing but angel, tangs, angel fish, and sand goby. Is it possible? Also, you can add plastic decor to a saltwater tank???
Very happy with my biota yellow tang, didn't mind paying the premium for captive bred fish.
I never use nets. Bad idea Congratulations on Jake catching fish in one shot
The Yellow Tang whisperer
Amazing "netting" approach
More like the “anti-netting” approach! 🙌
5 minute mark, what is that red fish with the horizontal stripe?
The fish whisper
great video
Jake you are a god ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🇬🇧
Cool video ! You should do an acropora classification with the kinds you have !
Wow, OK someone's a pro
Wow that all 5 at once
To catch 5 tangs in under a minute shows your pro’s!
I really enjoyed that video
How many tangs do you think I can have in a 180 mixed reef tank?
Tang hoarder! Yellow tang hoarder! Lol

Would love to know the light settings you have on the Redsea led’s
Now that's something you don't see every day lol nice catch.
Using the reset method, could I add two yellow and one purple tang together simultaneously? With the idea of acclimating them together in the same bucket before introducing them into the tank? Thanks in advance 🙏🏽
To add they will all be juveniles and around the same size
