Absolute Carnage! My Predator Tank Mistakes & How to Avoid Them | Newbie Tank Build 2.0
03-21-2026 In this episode, Jimmy shares a difficult update on his FOWLR tank. Despite consulting mentors, he learned the hard way that "predator tank" means exactly what it sounds like. From a school of 12 Chromis vanishing in 24 hours to the heartbreaking loss of a Blonde Naso Tang and a second Snowflake Eel escape, Jimmy breaks down the mistakes he made so you don't have to. We discuss the dangers of ammonia spikes when adding too many fish at once, the reality of fish aggression, and why you can't always trust a single source of advice. It’s not all bad news, though, the new Imperator Angel is thriving, but this is a must-watch cautionary tale for any beginner looking to keep large predators like Puffers, Groupers, and Triggers. ______________________________________________ ⚠️ Products In This Video ► (12 Pack) Green Chromis - https://www.saltwateraquarium.com/12-... ► Porcupine Puffer - https://www.saltwateraquarium.com/por... ► Blonde Naso Tang (Naso elegans) Small - https://www.saltwateraquarium.com/blo... ► Blonde Naso Tang (Naso elegans) Large - https://www.saltwateraquarium.com/blo... ► Green Bird Wrasse - https://www.saltwateraquarium.com/gre... ► Snowflake Moray Eel - https://www.saltwateraquarium.com/sno... ► Imperator Angelfish Juvenile - https://www.saltwateraquarium.com/imp... ► Imperator Angelfish Adult - https://www.saltwateraquarium.com/imp... ______________________________________________ Website - https://www.saltwateraquarium.com Follow us on Facebook - / swaqdotcom Follow us on Instagram - / saltwateraquariumdotcom Follow us on TikTok - / saltwateraquarium.com ______________________________________________ 📩 If you have a request related to equipment in this video, or this video in general, email - [email protected] #saltwateraquarium #swaq
