Wow the blue tang looks amazing. He looks bigger and healthy as ever. All of your fish look active and healthy. Very informative video.
Thanks you!!
Zero signs of lateral lign on the face at that large size respect
Thanks man!!
I work at a store and I payed for one that someone brought it from a 20 gallon tank and have got him eating algae and mysis even after a freshwater dip now he is doing phenomenal
I bought a baby Blue Hippo Tang a few days ago. I have a 125 Gallon Tank, plus two 32.5 Gallon tanks, two 20 Gallon Tanks (One is an Axolotl tank), and 5 smaller tanks. Some of our tanks are Saltwater, some Brackish Water, and some Freshwater. Right now, he or she, is the size of a quarter. I thought it might be safer for me to put him one of the 32.5 Gallon tanks with 2 Clownfish and a Goby, since my 125 Gallon has a Porcupine Puffer in it. My Porcupine Puffer ate a couple of tiny Clownfish a little over a year ago, when I first bought the Puffer, and he was on hunger strike. Ever since he did that, we started feeding him a couple of Feeder Goldfish per day, a couple of nbocks of Krill, and peas...And, he hasn't eaten or even nipped at another pet fish again. Do you think I should wait a couple of months to introduce my Blue Hippo Tank to the 125 Gallon tank? Also, do the Blue Hippos like Krill? And, can they eat the Algae Wafers that I have for my Plecos?
The pellets I feed my fish contain seaweed, so I don't give them seaweed sheets. The pellets has other stuff. 90% of their diet are these pellets. I also give my tank 1 cube of frozen carnivore cubes a day. I have two Hippos in my tank...they get along great. I got both of them when they were about 3-4" each. They are 6-7" now. I've had them 4-5 years. No disease ever.
Feed seaweed sheets,nothing beats natural
I have red and green sheets plus seaweed pellets

Thanks for the sub
New vid up now
I got mines for $30 at my LFS called ( Something fishy )
very cool tank man
I've kept blue tanks for over 30 years often on never seen one that was 100% reef safe
Mine eventually ate my shrimp - coral branded...
@@johnatella8498😢 I have coral banded and a blue tang
👍 definitely love my hippo.
DORY!!!!!!!!!
Hiya I am getting my first one tomorrow he is going to be around an inch long, I currently have 2 clown fish and some inverts, I love them but I don't want him getting sick, or itch what us the best advice to keep him very healthy
watch the video again
Feed him good and make sure he gets nori seaweed.
Just curious, what kind of fish is the grayish blue with yellow trim that keeps swimming back and forth in and out of the picture?
male blue throat triggerfish, Hawaii has a more dominate blue throat then the Indonesian kind.
4feet is just fine
Shit im about to put mine in a 55gal. 5 feet long. 10 in wide. Hes a baby about the size of a half dollar coin. Hes not staying in there forever but probably about 3 years i hope hes going to be ok
Yah he will be good for a while, three years may be a stretch as they grow quick.
saying they're 100% reef safe is not entirely accurate sing the reef safe with caution would be more appropriate
Merci pour ta vidéo !!!
*Just keep swimming intensifies*
🤔
I love this specie! Do you know how big does a blue tang get?
- Isabel
About a foot long if given enough space!
Healthy looking fish. May I know how big is this guy?
About 5 inches right now, can get a lot bigger.
What is the shrimp you feed him called?
That is mysis shrimp, specifically Hikari frozen mysis shrimp.
My tang only one in tank keeps dive bombing the sand than wagering in sand so it gose all over do you know whot this might be
Thats interesting, could be normal for that tang or it could have some sort of external parasite that's bothering it.
I am sorry
I have a plan to keep dory
This is my first tank
Is it special seaweed for fish or just regular seaweed such as for nori?
Thank you for answering
I only feed nori and they love it and are fine with it.
If it is your first tank, try some freshwater fish first. There is a lot to keeping a saltwater tank. Learn about cycling a tank.
Not finding Dory Finding Nemo movie only blue tang and clownfish
mine doesn't eat in 215 gallon and getting really skinny . she acted weird since i have got her .
Try throwing some nori seaweed on a clip in there, eventually it should come out and eat.
yoooo what up
DUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUDE
IMO there not easy. There ich magnets and need extensive quarantine with meds to ensure their health and health of other fish. But feeding them yes can be easy
They are great eater, I think they get a bad rap in the hobby for how ich prone they are, I dont think this is true IF you buy from a trusted source, I bought mine from my trusted fish store and it was nice and healthy and ate, I threw him in without quarantining and have never had a problem with him with any diseases, as also my other fish as well.

How do you treat the ich if you get it.
Honestly if one of my fish gets it and I cant catch him out of the tank, I leave them in the tank and ramp up the feeding. It usually goes away pretty quick. If you can catch the fish, put it in a different tank and dose medications with it.
Eagle Aquatics you feed them more when a blue tang has ich??
Eagle Aquatics Hi, any reason why we need to ramp up the feeding? And how many times a day would u feed?
Could I do 5 feet??
?
Your fish 🐟 are fat & healthy
