HOW to set up your first SALTWATER AQUARIUM! Starting your first saltwater aquarium can be intimidating. I remember doing endless research and still being hesitant to get started, until I finally got the courage to do it. Which is the reason I created this video, I started off with this 20 gallon aquarium about 3 yrs ago. I spent a ton a money because I listened to everything and everyone, I DO NOT want you all to go through the same thing. In this video you will see exactly how easy it is to get started. I’m using a 20 gallon Top Fin aquarium; (1) Fluval 50 HOB Filter and (1) Fluval 70 HOB Filter. I’m using a 200W aqueon heater. I’m currently using a Nicrew Classic LED aquarium light. Caribsea live rock cave and branch and caribsea sand. I’ll provide the links down below. Last but not least, I purchased my saltwater from my local aquarium. The water is sold with a salinity level of 1.025. This works very well for some fish and corals. I hope this video gives you all the confidence to finally try it for yourself. If you have any questions, please drop them down below. Keep a look out for the next video when we add some fish!! 🐠 🐟 I really appreciate you all for watching!!

Always had freshwater aquariums because videos made saltwater seem so complex. You are honestly the only person that made a clear and straight forward video. Keep up the good work.
First video i've seen hasn't scared the life out of me or confused me. Thanks ❤
I’m glad it helped. 👊🏾
I use this method this week to set up my first saltwater aquarium and everything is going perfectly 👍🏾👍🏾
I'm honestly terrified to start a saltwater aquarium. Clownfish are one of my favorite fish and idk if it's worth me risking their life because I'm a beginner but I know I would love having one if I had the confidence. Great video!!
I think you should do it. It’s not that difficult. I was so intimidated by the saltwater side of fish keeping. That’s why I made this video, to show how easy it could be.
I feel the exact same!
If you do it simple it’s very very easy ! If you try to replicate aquariums you see on CZcams with a lot of corals and a lot of fish’s ….. god save you 🤣
Yeah, I'm looking at getting into it now. Pricing stuff out at the moment. Found a 130L (35 Gallon) Red Sea Max for $350 (the entire setup) used so assuming everything is ok with it I'll be getting started in the next few weeks.
Ik I am too late but I believe in you! You can do it!
Thanks for sharing this video!!! I want to start my first Saltwater and watching this video is so relaxing and confident!!! 😎👌🏼
Thanks for watching, I’m glad you found it useful.
@TheFishCorner Yesterday I watched like 10 episodes lol I'm planning to use a 40g but after watching the 75g video!!! I feel great about starting my saltwater tank!! 😎😎👌🏼👌🏼
Thanks for sharing your experience and knowledge!!!! Peace ✌🏽✌🏽✌🏽
Straight forward, finally! Much appreciated for the help, everyones got a different opinion or using thousands of dollars of gear for salt water.
It’s all good! Thank you for your feedback and support! I agree 100% that’s why I was so nervous about getting into the hobby. But it’s really this simple bro!
I've ALWAYS wanted a salt water aquarium, but was terrified. My mom used to have one but her fish kept getting sick and she didn't have any luck with it. This video actually has me super excited to do this. Thank you so much!!!! Being a mom of 2 toddlers, I don't have much me time and excitement aside from home life. Aquariums are definitely my go to for peace.
Like yourself, I started with freshwater years ago. I had a beautiful tank and thought I had mastered the aquarium world. Then I had a house fire and lost all of my fish. While my house was being rebuilt, I bought a book on saltwater tanks and started one once back in my house. After about a year I became frustrated because it went from an enjoying hobby, to work. Fish were so expensive and when you lose a $60+ fish it is discouraging. But after 20 years I’ve decided to give it a shot again. Your large tank is beautiful! I enjoyed your video! Thank you!
Dude thanks for your videos! They are not puffed up and they are realist which is very useful when seeking resources. Thanks man keep up the good work.
Thank you!!! I’m in LOVE with saltwater fish. In my opinion they are much more beautiful than freshwater fish. The way they swim is more relaxing to me. My fiancé got a 40 gallon tank for $45 at petco. We are getting every piece little by little. I was so intimidated by saltwater setup videos, I almost cried out of frustration. This video made me not give up!
I was afraid on starting a salt water aquarium but when i see this video im planning to start right away. Thanks for this simple tips.
Yes! Thank you for your comment! I’m glad I was able to simplify things so you can finally get started! If you have any questions don’t hesitate to ask! Good luck with your first saltwater tank! I’m sure it will turn out great! Thank you for your support! 🙌🏾
Keep it up! I love how you make it all look so simple and realistic, like dude this ain't all gonna be perfect right away but with time and passion it's all good 👌🤙
Thank you! And that’s right. A lot of reefers want their system all high tech and they over complicate it for those that are considering getting involved in the salty side of fish keeping. All those extra gadgets are for the lazy fish keeper. Someone who wants to be hands off as much as possible. What’s the point in having an aquarium if you don’t even like to maintain it.. or don’t have the time.. anyway it’s unnecessary, so I’m making it simple and realistic for anyone to get started. 👍🏾👍🏾
Yes sir, I spent so much money on my fresh water tank and half the stuff I bought I didn't really need or could've done without, but all the hardcore guys would tell you otherwise and make you feel crazy. So once again, thanks for keeping it real for our regular folks
Yep! That’s exactly right!
And you’re welcome! Thank you for your support and feedback!
I can't believe it's been a year! I watched this a few times when setting up a tank because I just wanted a simple little tank with no corals. Great beginner video! The biggest issue I had was fish disease with all my attempts at a tank. I eventually caved and purchased quarantined/medicated fish and wish I had done it sooner. It's a lot more expensive but it increased my success rate tenfold and was worth every cent. I have no fear buying more fish/inverts down the line from the same person because their service gives major piece of mind.
Thank you very much for your support and feedback. I’m glad I’ve been able to guide you in any way at all. Sorry to hear about your initial loss but I’m glad you’re rockin and rollin now!
Thanks for the help ☺️
No problem, thanks for the support!
im so glad to come upon this video. a lot of others have said to buy things that cost over $200 for just one thing that isn't even live or not necessary. I have been wanting to gather the proper information to make my first saltwater tank and you have been the most useful information I have needed. im glad that you explain the reasons why you don't need somethings and why you recommend others. thank you so much.
I’m glad I was able to assist! Thank you for your feedback! If you ever have any questions don’t hesitate to ask.
Why do people even dislike your videos all you do is help people you have one of the best and helpful aquarium channels💯💙
I’m not sure brother. But I appreciate all the positive support and feedback I get, as for all the hate. It comes with the territory. 🤷🏾♂️ Thank you for your comment man. I appreciate you. 🍻
Best video I've seen, not over complicated
Thank you! That’s definitely what I was trying to accomplish!
Love the vid. Started watching and holy cow did not expect him to be stunning. I could watch him keep fish all day! 🥰
?
I smiled when I saw Baby Bum in the background! :-) That’s my kids’ favorite show lol. And thank you for a great video!
Subscribed! Amazing info in here and made me feel more confident about starting a saltwater as well! Thanks a ton 👍
Thank you for subscribing!! I truly appreciate your support! And great feedback! I’m glad I gave you the confidence you needed to get started! If you ever have any questions, don’t hesitate to ask!
I have had many freshwater tanks and was just gifted a 18 gallon tank and it’s always been my dream to do a saltwater tank. A lot of things I see say 18 is too small so thanks for this video!
You can definitely get away with an 18g. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. 👊🏾
Ran a 20g saltwater tank when I was a kid many years ago. Used an undergravel filter, small HoB filter, made my own water, crushed coral substrate. Was a lot of fun. I couldn't afford much in terms of fancy fish. I had clowns, blue damselfish, a few pink tipped anemones, starfish, a hermit crab that was hilarious to watch...a few things I shouldn't have had. Sadly, I had shady small town LFS that would sell me things and not say "hey that pretty queen angelfish is going to need 200g tank later". (Back then we didn't have internet to research)
This is exactly what I need, wanna start but have a lot to learn, watching now!
One thing I want you to do that I took a long time to do, ignore the intimidation of it. I made it look simple because it really is that simple to get started. I’m going to put out an updated video on the 37 gallon saltwater aquarium that is basically this 20 gallon evolving. Just get started with a small tank like a 20 gallon, start with fish only, take your time and trust the process.
I like the two filter idea !
Man, i wish i would have found this video before i started purchasing all the gear. Like you, i was told to "get all the expensive stuff now" but, i'm overwhelmed with the initial cost of it all.
It’s all good though, I started that way too. That’s why I made the video so others can avoid making the same mistake.
My goodness! I just came across your video! Thanks so much you make it look so simple
Thank you for your support and feedback! I’m glad you found this video helpful!
Really appreciate you doing this. Nice video ☺️
Anytime brother! Thank you for watching!
Awesome video love the family vibes. My girlfriend has always been into aquatics and after watching and enjoying her freshwater set up for the last 5 years. I've decided I'm going to take my Crack at saltwater.
I've always been drawn to the saltwater fish at our local shop every time we go there. They are so beautiful.
My plan from a uneducated perspective is to get a 20 gallon tank and learn to sustain coral and sea anenemies. After I feel educated enough on the fish I want and sustaining healthy tank life ill eventually add fish.
Definitely subbing to the channel though! I can't wait to dive into your content. ✌️
Thank you big bro, keeping it real and simple.
Just subscribed and will watch your other videos
Thank you bro! I appreciate you subscribing! Thank you for your support and feedback!
The large tank is absolutely gorgeous omg
Thank you. OG 150g.
I know nothing about salt, but this video seems very simple to follow. I will have to try this!
Good! Please let me know how it goes!
Thank you for the great video! Looking to get into saltwater after keeping freshwater planted for many years! Appreciate all of your info!
Anytime, you definitely should. You won’t regret it. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to ask.
@@TheFishCorner thank you!
Made me want to start a salt water I got 55 gallon fresh but i think ima make the salt water change cuz of you! 🎉 27 years is alot of experience also!
💪🏾💪🏾Thank you for the support brother. That 55g is going to give you some good space bro. I can’t wait to hear how it’s going bro.
Very helpful. But also you got a personality. You aren’t boring me to sleep like other people I’m finding.
Thank you for your feedback and support brother! Thank you for watching and I definitely appreciate the compliment! 🍻
Yeah bro fr like all the saltwater channels I find are so slow and boring quite honestly, very hard to sit there and listen
Bro thank you this is the best beginner guide I have found
It’s all good! I appreciate the support! 👊🏾
Loved this video ! Because I’m starting the saltwater hobby and have the same 20 gallon tank
Thank you so much for your support and feedback! Welcome to the Salty side of fish keeping! 😀
Awesome video
Thank you!
I literally just got into salt water and I love it just got me a nemo along with a domino damsel and three yellow tail damsel.. love your videos I too was afraid but I got tired of dreaming 😁
Very helpful video. I got my 55 gallon running ...
realy apreciate your content.i build sea water tank from zero thanks to you.
Good job on 500 subs
Thank you. 👍🏾
Hello Brother, I am a newby fish keeper beginning with a 10g freshwater tank. My goal right now is to able to correctly cycle the tank on a routine basis with fish and live plants. I was surfing the web and noticed your site, yeah! I hit like and subscribed. After reaching my freshwater goal. I want to go with a 20g salt water tank. I am fortunate to be able to gain knowledge from you. Am going to watch all your previous posts. I wish you and your family well each and every day. Thank you!
Love your puffer
Thank you bro! As do I! He has such a great personality! 💯
I want a salt water aquarium so bad, you made it doable thanx
You’re welcome! Glad I accomplished that. That was definitely the goal.
You most definitely made me go get a tank most definitely easy video and basic that’s for sure
Thank you.
Thank you so much for this video!
You’re welcome!!
With everything I have heard about saltwater tanks it seems like alot, but this video makes it seem a little more doable. I have tanks, filters, & heaters.. so just buy live sand, live rock, & pre-made saltwater. I going to try this.. the only thing that beats failing is not trying. Thank you 👍 👍.
I’m glad I was able to help, it really is that easy! Please let me know how it goes!
I was just about to give up on a saltwater tank until I saw this. The sump totally discouraged me… but it’s only a 20 gallon for me too and when I did a test run last year with just clams and snails and a baby crab it did well. I think maybe I CAN start a new one with some saltwater fish. Thank you!!
Thank you for your support and feedback! I can definitely understand you being discouraged by the sump, that’s the part that intimidates most people. I was the reason I took so long to start as well. You can start and maintain a 20 gallon with a HOB filter. I would recommend something like a Fluval 50. You can put a couple clownfish and damsels in there with a small cleanup crew. That would be just enough for you to really have some fun with it while educating yourself further. Just buy your saltwater from the store, grab some live sand and a few pieces of live rock and you’re good. Do a 10% water change every week or 20% every other week. All depending on stocking. Nonetheless, this will give you a good start, if you need help with anything, don’t hesitate to reach out. Good luck! 🍀
I get to learn about saltwater tanks AND I learned my ABC's? hell yeah!!
Thank you bro! 🍻
thank you brother your videos are helping me put together my first saltwater tank tomorrow !
You’re welcome! How did it turn out?
@@TheFishCorner I posted a video of it! Since my last video I’ve added more live rock to the tank
@@soarer209 okay, I’m going to go check it out!
@@TheFishCorner let me know if you think it will be okay for just two clownfish for now
I am into freshwater aquascape. But i want to switch to salt water. I am a bit hesitant because they always say that it is hard to maintain and expensive.
After watching this video i have now the courage to start 😀
Good video
Love the channel brother fellow fish keeper since 97. About to try my hand at saltwater finally, also a aqua clear/ fluval user since day 1 you have to clean the magnet and inside of the motor off so you will not have to just start anymore oh I rub the magnet super lightly with vaseline dont clump it just enough so it shines.
Thank you Bro! I appreciate your feedback and support! I will definitely give that a try. Thank you for the advice! And welcome to the Salty side of fish keeping! 🤜🏾🤛🏾
@@TheFishCorner also while I remember if you go to fluval website you will find replacement parts for the aqua clears often you only need to replace the shaft or propeller of the motors 10-20$ is better than buying a whole new filter smh I have done that in the beginning lol who knew back then how or where to get the parts but I definitely know now
I live your energy
Thank you bro! 🙌🏾
Thank you for the great information
💪🏾💪🏾 all good!
Thank you for the great video. Do people ever use sponge filters for saltwater tanks? I use one in freshwater and I don't like hang on back filters. Not sure if it's recommended at all.
Hey bro thanks for the video,it help a lot. Any idea if I could use an air filter instead of a back hang filter? Lot more quiet that way
Wow u got 500 subscribers! Congrats
Thank you!
I'm switching from fresh waster to saltwater, thanks for the video bro!!!
💯💯 What size tank you starting with?
@@TheFishCorner turning my 65 gallon into one. I loss my last jack Dempsey and it empty now. Had him for about 5 years
Salt water tanks are really cool
I totally agree with you bro!
Great info and content 👌🏿👌🏿
Thank you Bro 🤜🏾🤛🏾
Thx wauw that looks durable money wise , 👍🦈😊
It is definitely affordable and doable for anyone!!
Simple str8 to the point goodlooks
Great video. Thanks a lot!
Thank you!
Welcome to the salty side man!
🐟 💪 Much Respect From Houston, Texas 🌟✌
Thank you bro. 🍻💯👍🏾
I used L.I. beach sand 🖐🏿 it cleared up in 5 minutes...very clean...& used bottled water to clean !...for a 10 gl setup & 2 snall filters ..ine for just flow & ceramics ✌🏿
Interested in getting into the hobby simple well explained videos like yours are so helpful thanks !!!
Edit: Also what’s the price difference for buying your saltwater premixed and making your own ?
“Those snails are no longer living” 💀😂 y’all crack me up
Dope video bro I’m trying to get into the hobby 💪🏿going to keep doing my research and saving up
Thank you! Let me know if you need any more help! You might not have to save as much as you think!
@@TheFishCorner yessir much appreciated 🤝new sub I’ll keep you updated
Great video. I am new to salt water, just started a month ago with a 15g....ready to go bigger so getting a 40g
Thank you I really appreciate that! I remember stepping up from my 20g to a 54g corner tank, it was such a joy to see the fish having more room! Also, keeping your water parameters constant will be much easier. That’s awesome, please share a picture or two once it’s completely setup. 🙏🏾
Dope set up. I’m thinking of turning my 33 long into a salt water. Can I use a Fluval 307 canister filter or do I need to use HOB filters?
I started my 190 litre 3ft marine tank. Have an aquarium brother whose like a Jedi master lol.
It’s not as hard or intimidating like I thought it would be. I pre mixed the water to learn to get the right salinity etc. really interesting. I’m only going to get a couple of small fish before I level up and a few corals and invertebrates. This was a great video mate 🔥👍🐠
Thank you Brother! Congrats on the the new tank! I’m glad you got started! There’s nothing wrong with starting out slow. Those two fish will love their new 3ft long tank! Great job brother!
@@TheFishCorner There’s a danger is the overstocking syndrome lol 🔥🐠.
Gonna go minimal 2 clown fish a dotty back and a dwarf trigger
Lol.
Thanks for the video. Shame this wasnt around before I started my tank. 😊
Oh my goodness! I think I’m gonna try! Thank you for sharing your first experience with us, it really encourages me to try. I have a couple unused tanks that I can start with. Ohh Santa...
Could I use crushed shell instead of live sand?
Enjoyed this a lot!
You definitely should try! Thank you for your feedback and support! As for crushed shell instead of sand, I’m sure you could. But it won’t be live… you’ll have to wait 30 days for the cycling process but it’s possible.
About to start my first salt water tank (I have freshwater for a few years), it really is overwhelming when you start researching, but.... once you take a step back, really not that complicated.
Congrats! It’s not that hard at all, you just have some people that enjoy making it extremely hard for people to gain the confidence to get started. That’s why I made this video, to simplify things. It’s a easy to get started, then it’s up to you to figure out how far you want to take things.
Cool stuff.
I’m a beginner and here is a little tip I used. When pouring water into your tank out a stainless steel dog bowl or some time of bowl put it on the bottom of tank and pour water into the bowl sitting on the sand. That way it won’t disturb your sand or gravel.
Thanks I appreciate the feedback and support. A bowl works. So does a bag.
@@TheFishCorner yw! Awesome!! The one CZcamsr used his hand but it was to hard to pour with one hand and pour into the other. Ya it was neat cause even with alot of the water in the tank it still worked hitting the bowl.
cool video.. im starting with a 20G long.. TY
Nice! I hope this helped.
Thanks brother I'm going to get my 55 gallon. Running
🦾🦾 Definitely should!
Hey I have a 55 gallon tank I've been doing fresh water for a while now but I'm thinking about trying out salt water it was intimidating until I watched your video Can I use a fluval 407 canister system with a skimmer not sure if I have to do the hang on the back or what is the best way to do it?? thanks for the video 👊
Bro, you can definitely use that canister filter and skimmer. I’m using a sponge filter on two saltwater aquariums, one with a HOB filter and one with three types of filtration, sponge, HOB and above the tank DIY sump. They all work.
Good vid respect from birmingham uk
Thank you. 👍🏾👍🏾
I've been keeping freshwater fish for 3 years now, I'm planning on starting a 30 gallon saltwater fish tank soon . I found a whole setup on offer up for 300 this would be my third fish tank. Will saltwater fish tanks be very time consuming?
Bro,
27 years of fish keeping?
That's awesome man.
I could truly tell this hobby relaxes you.
Keep up the good work my man.👍🙏
Yessir, since I was 10. And Thank you bro! I really appreciate your feedback! I’ll certainly keep it up!! 💪🏾👍🏾🎯
So glad I found this channel. We’ve been wanting to start a saltwater tank for years and we finally took the plunge today after seeing this video. We bought the 20 gallon aquarium kit, live sand, and live rock. We couldn’t find premade saltwater, so we will mix it ourselves. My question is how long will we need to wait before adding fish? You said that you could add fish the same day with the premade saltwater, but what about when we mix it ourselves?
Hi Winnie, so sorry for this incredibly late response. How did it turn out? What fish did you add? I would have waited about a week before adding fish.
I have a question I purchased thee 20 gallon starter kit do I still gta purchase thee additional items u listed ?
Thank you so much!! I’m thinking about making the switch to a saltwater tank and I’m struggling so figure out what I need. I have a 10 gallon tank, I only want two clown fish. Any recommendations?
You’re welcome! And you can pull it off with a 10 gallon I would plan to upgrade to at least a 20 gallon when you can. Make sure you have a decent HOB. Maybe a Fluval Aquaclear 30 for the 10 gallon and a Aquaclear 70 for the 20 gallon. But you’ll be thankful for the upgrade. The parameters won’t fluctuate as easy. When you do your maintenance on it, you can change out 5 gallons a week or so.
As for lighting, just a regular LED light should suffice and 50 watt heater.
Not much is needed to house a pair of clowns. Live rock, live sand and saltwater water from your local aquarium will be all you need to get started.
Keep RODI water to top off your tank as the water evaporates.
The ABCs got me lol I have a 4yr old so I relate haha liked and subbed!
🤣🤣 Right! And thank you Bro! I truly appreciate your support and feedback! Thank you for subscribing!

Would you recomend having life rock? You have a very nice tank running beautifully there!
Thanks man! I have a 20 gal with the the fluval aqua clear 70 you mentioned in the comments to someone! My tank is more tall then wide and I don’t think there’s enough movement in my tank, should I get a wave maker?
Nice setup! Just how I started! It’s really on you bro. If you have a good amount of flow from your HOB the circulation pump is optional.
@@TheFishCorner thank you man!! I just grabbed a top fin ph30, was the lowest gph I could find around me. Does 118 gph and I still feel like the current and stuff on top isn’t moving enough.
Thanks for the info I’m starting 1 just clueless what I can do to get my water right 😂
Bro I did it . I’m in the process as we speak now , of my cycle got live sand live rock and fresh sand from the local fish store. Got a 70 fluval HOB on a 37gal tank . And a 1250 aqueon circulation pump. Day 1 going well it’s very cloudy from the live sand stirring up with the water. It’s settling and I set my rocks in their position .Gonna add some microbacter7 tomorrow , and was contemplating adding a sponge filter for more internal biological filtration, by adding activated carbon in the middle , what do you think about that idea since I don’t have a sump is that a good idea ?
Hell yea! Great job! You’re on the right track. 👍🏾👍🏾Don’t put a sponge filter in your tank though.
good job bro keep doing a great job this video make me subscribe to the channel i been trying to jump into this hobby but some People make it looks complicated ,after watch this video I'm definitely doing it what you think about the fluval flex 32.5 or can you suggest a better set up ?
Thank you for subscribing Bro! I really appreciate it! And you’re right, I used to dislike how everyone over complicated the saltwater side of things. So I wanted to simplify things. I’m glad you found it helpful! That Fluval Flex is a sweet all in one setup. What will you stock it with?
@@TheFishCorner I'm going to start with some clownfish but later down the road ill do it exactly as you stock your
Hi, I'm planning to get my 1st Marine tank and I would like to know that did fishes survived in that tank without sump and canister?
So I got a 50 gallon I'm trying to find out do u really need wave maker pump for saltwater
If you mix your own saltwater, how do you know how much salt to add per gallon, or does the salt tell you. Also how much salt with water changes?
I use the same filters. Sometimes you have to jump start them because the impeller gets stuck.
Annoying but to be expected with Aquaclear filters.
I have a couple hex tanks, was thinking about splicing them together..... then maybe ill finally try a salt water tank, after 51 years, well let's say 45ish years give or take a few, of keeping fish. I've never had a salt, always wanted one, have had, tropical community tanks with live bearers, South America cichlids, African cichlids (now) , goldfish, bettas ( which I have around 50 right now) I still have yet to do a discus tank and salt water. You've inspired me to try salt water....maybe because of those nice muscles... im sorry I had to say it. 😆 forgot to add that I have got to look into seahorses!!! Always wanted some
Just started my first aquarium and 1 week into the cycle. I went with 32g biocube AIO with 20lb live sand and 30lb live rock. Hopefully I’ll be adding some coral and fish soon. Great videos BTW
Hell yea! How’s the tank going? Sorry for the delayed response Bro and thank you for your support!
Great vid. They have hand drill water pumps on along for like $15. Gotta buy the hose separate
Amazon not along
