Expensive Mistake

Unboxing a MASSIVE Fish Order: Predator Tank Additions & A Costly Mistake! | Newbie Tank Build 2.0

In this episode, Jimmy takes his FOWLR tank to the next level with a major livestock delivery. From a stunning Emperor Angel and a Snowflake Eel to a large Blonde Naso Tang, a school of 12 Green Chromis, and more, the predator tank is finally filling up, but not without some "newbie" hurdles. Jimmy walks you through his temperature and drip acclimation process, shares a success story with a struggling Bird Wrasse, and issues a "buyer beware" warning after a common sense fail turned an expensive cleaner shrimp into a snack for Petey the Porcupine Puffer.
