The hardest part of keeping a nano is wanting to keep stocking it and knowing you don't have more room😁
My 12gal right now

I think the hardest thing with a nano tank is when you go into a fish store and see a fish that you really want but can’t have because of the tank size but water changes can also be a harder thing because you have to match it up precisely or you risk throwing off the salinity
I think the hardest thing about a nano tank is making sure to limit your fish and not go overboard. One thing about the blue jawfish though is I’ve always heard they need cooler water. Any experience keeping them at reef tank temps?
The hardest part of a nano tank is setting it up and having it magically become self sufficient so in a short 3 months you decide it’s time to upgrade to a 125
Thats funny. It doesn't take long to max out a nano tank for sure.
It has happened to me the other way around, I have a large aquarium and I have found a tiny one and I want to do something with it, and don't know what fishes put in or how to start setting up everything, because is so tiny compare with the other 🤔🤔🤔
Love the blennies! And in my opinion the hardest thing about keeping a nano is understanding how fast the water parameters can change and what to do to prevent bad rapid changes.
3:18 “get over it” ❤️
Top 10 King strikes again! Nice work Jeff!
I just got my first saltwater fish on Friday and they were clownfish
Awesome👍🏻
My fist fish are going to be a pair of clowns and I’m getting them soon
great starter fish, they are extremely hardy.
@@joshuaflinkstrom163 how them clown fish going for ya
Same!
Hey, I just want to say I love your channel. Thanks for all the positive information that you give. On Aquatics saltwater setups very informative.
Thank you
Great list!
Thanks for stopping by 😎
I think the hardest thing with a nano tank is either wanting to overstock or maintaining perfect parameters.
Its possible to do both, it's just expensive.
I was going to say having patience was the hardest part of reef keeping. But after getting hit by a mini spring blizzard and losing electricity for nearly 8 hours I now think that the hardest part (for me) is having the foresight to see these kinds of issues coming and knowing how to handle them fast. Maybe you could cover a video sometime on preparedness for sudden power issues and solutions. Obvious solutions are having a generator on hand and ready to go. But some people that’s not feasible. The main issues are the obvious oxygen and gas exchange and temperature. Great video as always!!
Thanks for the info! Great video
Gallons, inches and my european brain just explodes
Sam Miles just remember:
2.5 centimetres = 1 inch
2.5 litres = 1 gallon
2.5 is your key number, remember it.
Adobe Nerd isn’t it 4.5 litres?
@@gm836 Oh never mind, yeah it's actually 4 liters/gallon. Otherwise, there are 2.5 centimeters in an inch.
Loool same
I'm calculating all the time. Paused the video, make numbers, see the fish and go on.
New to your channel!! It's been great and very informative. You rock!!
Just started my first reef tank and its going really good so far thanks to your videos thanks!
Another quality video Jeff.
Email me at jeff@madhattersreef.com
Just subscribed and excited to learn!
This video helped.me so much thank you! Im about to start a 10 gallon saltwater tank over spring break and this is just what i needed to satisfy my fishtank needs until i have mine :)
...bout time man 😁
I’m on it😎
Iv just started watching all the videos an it's so helpful. I was thinking off starting a nano reef tank for my room but now iv watched these I will now start getting everything ready. I have a couple of questions tho. Would a 30 gallon tank be okay to start off with? Buying the marin water from a local fish store is this okay? Last question is live rock a must have thing for the tank?
Great List! all awesome fish :) That Blue Spot is a huge jumper too, so keep a lid on that tank!
Question of the week.. well go with salinity! buy an ATO!
Most difficult part I’ve had was trying to find the right fish to put in my nano/pico Reef tank, I finally chose to put in a highfin goby paired with a pistol shrimp, and they have been doing great. I’m glad this fish made it into your top 10 list.
One of my favorite combos.
The hardest is not over feeding the tank. They always look so hungry! Great videos!
Nice update!!!
As always a great video
Nice video. I just set up a tank and this was helpful.
Hi thank you for the news love your vids
Great list.
Glad you enjoyed it
Nice video so far!
The yellow coris wrasse is a good option for at least a 20 gallon nano. Also the yellow clown goby makes a wonderful addition. This is a great list of nano fish. Our nano is plumbed into the main display system, so water parameters are easier to maintain.
How do you feel about the Fingered Dragonet? Love your videos thank you for posting them.
Ive been a reef tank owner for a week and always go top your videos for advice. Just starting out and look forward to getting started
Welcome to the dark side
It defiantly feels like the dark side when I see my money disappearing. Loving the vids.
Thank you very much for your tips I'm new and a salt water hobby keep the good work
Great video I love my new fish thank you
I really like videos like this since I’m looking into getting a lot of aquariums for my reptile room
Nice.
Good information for newcomer..thank you ❤❤
Great video! Hugs from Brazilian aquarists
I like your all video sharing about top 10 tqvm sir
Love thw bids ceek them up
Some nice fish there just setting up a 14 gallon nano so was looking what to stock it with this helped a lot (Mandy)
2:30 if you just want to see the top 10
Everytime! I love his videos but I know to start at around 2 minute mark!
Good list; I think azure and springer's damselfish make good choices too when kept alone because they stay under 3 inches and are very hardy in general.
The size limit always wanting to put more corals and fish. Great videos
Just set up a 16 gallon this video was great!
Nice!
Only found this channel subbed also im planning out my saltwater tank the thing i dont get is if you have a tank with clowns amd blennys and tangs etc what do feed them different food or all the same or???
For me the hardest thing is figuring out what is really needed for a salt water setup. I am planning to try to start a 40 gallon reef tank for each of my kids and there is a lot of information to figure out. I have done well on freshwater tanks; but this will be my 1st try on salt. Also, trying to pick the right combo of colorful fish and easy coral hat they will like.
haha I was shocked when I saw the title because I was just researching about this
The best one!
Thanks bigshow
#500 just subbed, good channel.
Firefish also can survive a velvet outbreak! Thanks for the video!
I got my 20 gallon nano reef tank cycled, and everything is stable and it’s ready for fish, no corals yet and I’m just wondering what fish I can put in it, I’m thinking of having a O Clownfish but I don’t know what else, (tip the clownfish is only a normal clownfish)
Hey Jeff, why do you think Nano tanks are always perceived as "beginner tanks" ? I've been a few years in the hobby and have a 27gal marineland cube. Curious to see what you'd recommend for fish that aren't for beginners persay but those of us who want something with a little more challenge! Any advice is greatly appreciated! :D
Another great video. While you're at the nano side of things why not do a couple more videos on best nano corals, lights and skimmers. As for what has troubled me the most with my nano, the winner is keeping the parameters in check. I just recently gained the battle against high nitrates after about a month at it. But then again, I'm in the hobby for only 6 months now so I'm pretty much just climbing the knowledge curve
I used to have a dusky jawfish in my 90 gallon reef. If nothing else, the jawfish is one of the most entertaining fishes in the hobby; they are constantly up to something. They are quite busy, constantly working on some sort of task.
The most difficult thing about a nano tank is the filter ration I have a 5.5 nano that up but together myself and I was trying to find out what type of filter to put on his tank I'm currently using a 200 Aqua clear with a invert skimmer.
The hardest part of having a nano tank is keeping the levels stable so all my aquarium members remain happy and healthy! Another great video and I think you should have green banded goby’s and pink streaked wrasse on the list.. they are both cute fish with cool personalities!
Hey now! I appreciate number noine the most!
hit them with the Hein!
Keep a good salinity level for me in a small tank is hard
I am looking to start my tank with two blacker ice clownfish should I add them first because I plan to add a goby into the tank in the future
Question, i'm planing to buy a RED SEA Max 170 to start in the hobby. what do you think???
Nice!
I want to set up a 5 1/2 gallon nano tank,is thear anything I can put in a 5 gallon?
Great video! How about a video on coral for a nano?
Ironically the mandarin goby / dragonette on ur thumbnail is perhaps one of the hardest fish to keep alive since they only eat copepods. I get the click bait but good video 👍🏼
They are technically nano fish just not beginner fish, and you can get lucky with one that eats frozen. Like mine.
Yumyum poddy pods
I mean, it says Nano Reef Tank fish, not "Begginer Nano". Just a thought
Hey guys, actually you can get aquacultured mandarins that arrive eating the sellers specific food. Mine eats .5ml pellets. 👍🏻she’s a fat little thing 😃
They say the same about scooter blennies but mine eats brine shrimp no problem
I have a question that might seem silly, but I’m a beginner to the hobby. How would I go about individually feeding the jawfish without over feeding my other fish? Would I just by hand put the food down in the tank in front of him?
Having uncured rock, I put uncured rock in my tank for 6 months and still have cyano I do water changes every week but never goes away, I’d use the $25 for more salt so I can keep doing water changes (I don’t have a lot left)
You need to reduce your silicates. If you have silicates in your water that your doing water changes with, you may be just feeding the 🔥.
Red slime needs silicates to grow. Turn the lights off for 3 days and reduce your silicates.
Mad Hatter's Reef thank you very much I will try this right away
Looking to start a 30 gallon salt tank with a tiny community,(fish only) can you do a video on fish that could go together?
How expensive would it be to set up a 20 or 10 gallon reef tank? I have always been intrested in it but i have always been told its too expensive.
I just set mine up this week. I’ve spent about $600, and I don’t have any livestock yet. I got a 14gallon Innovative Marine peninsula tank for $199. Lights- USA Current LED 18-24 inch on sale for $85 (normally $130 - $160). Live rock - 15 pounds, some was 11.99/lb because I wanted arches and caves. Some was $6.99/lb, all in was about $110. I also got a Tunze ATO for $99 because I know I’ll have trouble remembering to top off, and have to travel for work on occasion. Also got a refractometer for about $20 and a test kit for Ammonia, PH, Nitrate, and Nitrite for $25. Total so far, $538. I know it can be done for cheaper. Someone has a video on here for how they did it for $124, but his tank also cracked on the first day so.....
There are a lot of used tanks with fish and all for sale that anyone can find due to the fact that most people give up a saltwater tanks after not long, I once managed to get a 25 gallon tank with fish, rock, a stand, and everything you need for 150$, so keep an eye out for those
Agree... have 4 of the 10!
This was funny 😂
Would you be open to doing a top 10 on wrasses?
I haven't started yet. I am doing research to start my first Saltwater tank.
Informative! I have been thinking about the jump to non local saltwater tank since hurricane Harvey
I hits the like button and Scribed
Hardest thing for myself.... just getting into the hobby and trying to sort through all the opinions and info online to figure out what equipment to actually buy and what to spend more on compared to other things.
Hello there I just subscribed to your channel
would you put a highfin goby in a 10 gallon that already has 2 clowns and a yellow watch men goby ?
I had to subscribe. I just set up a 20 long reef 2 days ago. No sand no live rock. I actually bought a 1 pound piece of figi ultra yesterday. My brother gave me a grafted monte cap frag, a blasto frag and a green dragon soul zoo frag. The live rock has what appears to be either green pipe organ or star polyps.
My goal is sps dominate w/ no fish, but I might have to add one if my water is too clean. So if I do, I'll be referring to this list when determining which one I get.
Select fish that will go to work for you.
Great vids 😀 the hardest thing for me, is the HP current 8.0 steady, but will like to raise it to 8.2-8.3 but I simply can't, so any suggestions are very welcome
Don't have a tank yet, but want to start with a nano (I know possibly ambitious but I have my reasons for it) but I think for me being totally new to it, is all the information you must know to have a successful tank, I can't really talk much on it since I don't yet have a tank. Just researching for now...
Why does this dude not have more views...
I subscribed
The most difficult thing about nano tanks is you can't put a tang in #tangpolice
For me its how often I have to top off the water lever.
wym i have a yellow tang in my 10 gallon
@@lucasbaluyut5746 shhhhhhhhhhhhhhh the tang police 👮 out here
@@lucasbaluyut5746 💀💀Bro I'm not a tang cop but that's fucked also rip you
Water parameters and water changes but im my mind the hardest thing that we have so many things available for the hobby and to manage the stock of the tank to a manageable level.
I really want to set up a reef tank but I'm not sure on how to do it at all. Any advice will be greatly appreciated 😁
We don't have a 75 and about to upsize to a 210. I think mandarins are the hardest to keep. Thanks fo4 the informative videos, keep it up Jeff.
I've been thinking about turning my 36BF into a saltwater tank. Would I be able to fit most of these fish you mentioned into it or would I have to pick a fish add the gallons together etc etc?
Is it 36gallons?
Yes it's a 36 gal. Bow front
That clownfish is stunning! Is it possible to do only a clownfish tank of all different varieties?
Clownfish can be brats to one another and other fish. I have never had success with adding different clownfish to the same tank.
Salinity can be very difficult to manage without a good auto top off. Other than that I've found them very easy to take care of. I actually started out in this hobby with a 5 gallon Pico tank.
Surprised that you would recommend a midas blenny for a 30 gallon! I dont get that since he grows up to 6 inches! I was thinking of getting one for my 36 gallon but was afraid that wasnt big enough
I have found that parameter swings in my 10 gallon are the hardest part about that size. My 60 gallon is really stable but my 10 gallon is the bane of my existence, but it has shrimp and gobies in it and keeps the wife happy since those are her favorites. Happy wife, Happy life lol. Thanks for the videos.
Probably choosing what kind of stocking in the tank and keeping stable salinity levels in the tank
I do not own a Marine Aquarium (yet) but i think for me would be the stabilization of the tank...i only have freshwater Tanks but i guess it is sort of the same with the size and the stability...but i really am looking forward to put together a nano reef :)
I found a 15 gallon aquarium in the street, it's in great condition, obviously I need to fill it to make sure it doesn't leak. Thinking of setting it up as a reef tank with a pair of clown fish and a few shrimps. I have a 50 gallon tropical and a 6 gallon tank that I'm going to keep a Betta in, need to sort that out first but I hope I can have success with a reef tank.
The size restriction for sure. So many fish you can't have in a nano tank. You also are restricted pretty tightly on how many you can have. I had a 10 gallon reef tank a couple of times and within a year I upgraded both times. Currently I have a 40 so I suppose I still fall within the nano size, but it allows me to have more fish and even some additional species I couldn't in my 10 gallon.
Position the corals it’s for me nice video bro
