how to post a youtube video in a post?

Someone told me before but I can't remember. How do you post a youtube video in a post so that you just click the play button to watch (so you don't have to go to youtube to watch it)? Thanks in advance.

Embedded video. I have NO idea either and know someone here can help us out. Something in the tag......YT ......"something". Sorry but I don't know.

I copied the content in the 'Embed' block to the right of the video. What did I do wrong?

Without the spaces in the tags:
[ y t ] (the id for the video) [ / y t ]

For this one the id was:ezSVb19Ofzk, the end of the url:

hey that worked! is that a black moor? I used to have one about that big. He was such a active fish!

Yes, there is a black moor (imported from Bangkok) in there. It is doing very well, now the biggest in the tank. The body shape is shifting toward that of a ryukin's. The black is holding very well.
