Hey, so actually that was my friend's betta fish, it was not actually an enclosed ecosphere, you could see on the latests vt, and yea he still alive :)
I kept bettas in horrible conditions as a kid (0.5 gallon "tank") and they still lived 3 years. After learning how to actually care for them (5 gallon tank + filter + heater), died in 6 months. Unlucky :,( Genetics are a lottery, even if you do everything right.
I have had two Bettas in the past and one now that do okay but not great. It almost makes me wonder if they just got so used to being in crappy conditions that being in a good tank shocks their system or something
@@atari-7corners96 I "remembered" three times a day 😔 I didn't realise overfeeding was a thing then... and the only "water change" was when their water evaporated and needed to be topped off.
I love the idea of a beautifully aquascaped tank with crystal clear water, flourishing plant life, healthy and brightly coloured fish, and then at the centre there’s just a single pineapple house
I was skeptical about putiing my male betta named Fin in the turtle tank (I'm sorry), but I did it anyway. I have no idea how but my turtle and Fin are best friends. I observethem all the time. Its a 50g tank. Lots of plants, rocks, a cave. There have been no fights for the past 6 to 7 months. Fin's right cheek is really bulgy(like a tumour) so he doesn't really fight. My turtle only eats pellets or cabbage (no idea why, but she's a vegetarian) and had several fish in the tank with her, the fish dided of old age. Why and how did a betta make friends or tolerate a turtle? Please someone answer me. 🤔🤔😅🐢🐢😕I'm sorry if the fish was abused. But he is perfectly healthy other than his cheek which was there when I got him.
@@justakitty4140 same my turtle and betta were both happy and healthy but I moved and I didn't knew anything at all about fishes because he was my first fish the tank was so small not even a gallon His colour started fading and died But now I am learning about them and I know many things about bettas now
a horror story that I experienced yesterday. I work at a pet store and do a lot of things there, casher, caretaker of the fish and rodents, and helping customers. But mainly I take care of the fish because surprise almost nobody knows anything about fish. Well, back to the story I had to take over the casher because my college had her break. There was a boy ( around 12), his sister (around 8), and his father in my line that bought around 10 goldfish. The boy was shaking with the cart wildly because he thought it was funny to give fish concussion >:( it's not. The father told him to stop it, but he was busy with his bored daughter. After i helped the last customer they were at my casher. I was so angry and wanted to slap that child so bad, but I will not let myself sink to the level of a fish abuser. I said with a polite but warning tone that he shouldn't do that because it's stressful for the fish. His father agreed and told him that he had to stop now. He finally stopped clearly taken aback that I said something, but for he left the store I heard him say "who cares about fish they can't feel anything and are dumb, i want a dog" I hate this kid..........
So...you wanted to abuse a child, yet are put off by fish abuse. Gross. Yes, what the child was doing was wrong but he is just that, a child. You are abhorrent.

I had 5 smaller goldfish in a not even 5 gallon tank probably, that was meant for glofish. It had fake plants, a neon colored light that could change colors, and fruity pebble gravel. It was awful.
@@waffle_pets With my fish's story, my mom knew some people at our grocery store. Some people bought goldfish, but never took them. I guess they put them down somewhere. No one would take them but me, so my mom gave me the fish. This happened twice, so at one point I had a very over stocked 10 gallon with both tropical, and fresh water fish. Only two goldfish remain from the first 5, but they live in a planted 20 gallon now. :)
Mine was not even a gallon and before I even thought of a new one he died but I tried keeping him in my goldfish's tank but there was no hiding space for him so I had to take him out

It’s funny to me that Zebra Muscles have been a huge issue in Lake Michigan (grew up in Chicago) forever to the point that a lot of the beach is just tiny shells but now that it’s made it’s way into the pet trade suddenly everyone is super worried about Zebra Muscles. Like yep. Thanks. They’re already a problem this isn’t new
I am fairly new to fish keeping (proper fish keeping) and I am not too proud of my first tank i got when I was 11. Completly overstocked, no heater and fed terrible food... I kept on wondering why my fish were dying. I dont hate myself too much, my parents kinda gave it to me without me knowing how to properly take care of fish. I am now 15 and i recently i got my first 10 gallon (that is actually planted!) . I have 3 dwarf frogs and 4 female guppies in it and they are doing amazing. This is the first video of yours ive seen and i plan to learn from it as much as i can :)
oh wow, I didn't realise how big clown loaches got! The pet store sold us like 3 of them for a 20 gallon tank to eat snails :( poor fish. If only I knew better back then, I was a young kid at the time. 1 of them lived for quite a few years and was one of my favourite fish
when i was little i went to the eye doctor and in the waiting room they had this absolutely amazing fish tank that was about 5 feet long it had some guppies and goldfish and lots of other fish it also had great plants and rocks and was overall awesome 🤩
Thanks for the review. I have a lot to learn and this helps a lot. I will try feed them less, try to be consistent with the 8h light on ^.^ and get a 2nd tank so that one inst overstock.

i remember when i was little i really wanted a fish. so we went to a local pet store and found this BEAUTIFUL red and blue betta fish. we named him Kubo. he lived in a small fishbowl probably less than a gallon for about a year or so, then we had a HUGE upgrade. instead of this little fishbowl he now had a 7.5-gallon tank with lots of vegetation and very good filtration all to himself. he then live for another 2 and a half happy years in that tank.
My friend has some Betta fish in three gallons tanks with like barely any plants, and colored gravel. After a *civil discussion* they agreed to try and find some ten gallon tanks for the fish. They've already sourced one or two tanks, and I said I would give one that I had laying around, but they live in Canada and I live in the USA, specifically southern USA
@6:29 the Dutch market place is called Marktplaats. and they probably only put the guppies in there for the photo. BTW I am dutch and in the Netherlands there is not a lot of fish abuse.
uhm no thats not for the photo thats like their tank i guess im also dutch and i cant handle how many fish abusers live in my neighbourhood. if you try to tell tante gerda that it is wrong they wil get angry or something
@@Wunpini yes but they are on marktplaats to be sold. And if I sell guppies then I also put them in like a small container to make photo's..... and then after that they go straight back in to the tank.
So agree with the clown loach issue, I've taken in about 10 over the past year and have put them in the tropical pond, most over them are like 10inchs and most had been kept in a 50gal 😑
If this channel had the subscriber count it deserves, there would be no more fodder for fish tank review because the cycle of ignorance would finally be broken. Thanks for the content, dude. 👍

@@MiraSubieGirl no cap evolved from "high cappin" which also refers to playing the dozens. It originated like in the 80s/90s... it's not from Twitch lol
i didn’t have a flame tetra, but i used to have a firefish goby! i know those are saltwater but in the four years i had him, he seemed to be very happy! he was kept in a 10 gallon tank with two other fish, a shrimp, and a crab! the firefish was named fireblade, like from fruit ninja lol, he was super cool and i was very sad that we had to give him back when we moved :(
I can't stop staring at the rescape of the ADA. Also it's so sad my friend has this baby musk turtle she is treating it great but she is keeping it in an ada and I'm so jealous cause it's beautifully planted and the musk is so adorable I have a red eared slider in an 70 gal storage container with half dead water lettuce. Sigh
I'm super excited because I feel like I finally have a tank I can submit to be seen lol, I just finished planting my blackwater biome 20gal and it's been growing and cycling for the past two weeks ^^ I'm happy to see how my betta Rojo likes his new house
Okay about the zebra mussels in the Moss balls it is only Moss balls from a certain country in a certain area that are possibly infected with zebra mussels other ones have come in clean. It is very possible that this local pet store might have a supplier that is not infected by the zebra mussels. It is very important to find out where their sources from before you put somebody on blast, especially on the internet. The reason why it became a well-known widespread problem was because two major companies Petco and PetSmart we're paying for these to be shipped in from one particular distributor. Part of the reason to go to Mom and Pop and local businesses is they don't always have the same Supply chains as the big box retail stores. A lot of these mom and pop shops and far go out of their way to make sure they have good supply lines. Places like aquarium Co-op sit here and try to Source plants they know are hard to get in the Wild by funding local farmers to make them.
These aqua-scape artists make me so jealous!! I'm making an ecosphere and I'm using the spinal bone of one of our cows that died a while back (don't worry, I scrubbed the hell out of it, its clean, I promise)... This will be my first aqua scape enclosure... wish me luck!!
Chris when people say no cap it means there not lying "Cap" means like lying So "your capping" is the same as "your lying" but when people say "im not capping" there saying there not lying
Still waiting for the day when Chris browses the FishforThought subreddit, in the hopes that he'll see my post about a plastic ohko stone with plants decoration lol
Zebra mussels have actually been a problem in our waterways for quite some time now. What's new is they're getting into moss balls and the aquarium trade in general.
First tank: I had a snail problem in a 29G planted tank with a group of mollies, was suggested clown loaches to take care of the snails. Fell in love. By the end of the year, ended up with a 125G metachrome tank I found at an estate sale for $300 (yah I know). Did all that clumsily, traumatizing water parameters for months (aquariums with dying fish is a repeated theme in bad dreams to this day), so much $$$ in chemicals and products... It turned out to be so joyful and rewarding. All that to say: clown loaches are goddamn adorable.
The gravel vacc is so funny to me because I have three dwarf puffers, and one of them is always so curious and, despite my best efforts, that one specific puffer has gotten sucked up three times
if anyone was wondering what 'no cap' means: when you speak with all caps LIKE THIS, it looks like you're exaggerating. So speaking something with 'no cap' technically means "i'm not exaggerating". over time "i'm not exaggerating" turns into "i'm not lying" since they mean similar things. so 'no cap' means 'i'm not lying'.
A few months ago my dad and I bought 3 yoyo loaches and BOI they g r e w ! They’re the most active duo (one of em died unexpectedly and stayed small) in our tank at the moment haha very fun to watch ^^
That goofy aquarium with the clock on the side is a good product....for bamboo and literally nothing else. I had one on my reception desk that I used just for some bamboo in the "fish tank" side and to hold pens on the dry side.
So fun fact! Zebra mussels can live if the temp gets below a certain point. The algae balls, it's not moss. Can with stand near freezing temperatures. Stick them in the freezer and let them get just to the point on of freezing then, take them out and stick them in fridge for a few hours then take out and let adjust to room temp. If you have one that is a bit brownish. Stick in the fridge over night it will perk up. It's a cold water plant and most of the moss balls come from the Ukraine not China not Japan. Zebra mussels originate from the Ukraine. Good luck to those have gotten them in the recent months. I buy them and rip them and glue them to stones, or caves.
That pink graveled tank looks better than my sister's. My sister's tank is properly sized with sharp gems, sharp plants, and SpongeBob decorations. Did I mention almost everything is a rainbow? I'm just glad I convinced my dad to get her betta a 5-gallon tank rather than a half-gallon tank.
So I have the tank @ 2:50. Its ok but leaning towards bad, I kept shrimp in, it was impossible to clean the filter since it was under the flooring and if you remove the flooring,you’ll spend 20-30mins trying to place it back cuz the alignment of the filter must be pinpoint for you to use the “fountain”
Hey Chris sorry it's been a while. Pretty busy with teaching and recovering from a broken shoulder. But I'm still taking care of my bettas they're all happy and healthy. My arm does recover within 1 to 2 years I am going buy a new tank and I want to do a fully planted tank. I think it's going to be pretty awesome. When I first got into the hobby I didn't know about planted tanks I knew you could add live plants and they just gave me gravel they didn't sort of introduce me to aquarium soil and things like that but I'm going to do that:) It's going to be my tank too my left arm recovering which is what I used to write with. I have a joys of being tested
Hey just fyi, the info you gave about the zebra mussels was a bit off. You need to freeze/boil the moss balls and completely redo the tank. Only because the larve stages of the mussels are basically microscopic and will easily be sucked out during water changes. One thing you could do if your really like you scape and wanna keep the tank is make sure your waste water after waterchanges does not enter a drain or waterway. You could pour it on a grass field or something. Or boil it first before sending it down the drain.
So I rescued 4 sarasa goldfish yesterday. They're really small now no bigger than my pinky. They are set up in a 30 gallon tank, bare with an aeration stone and filter, currently quarantining. I hope one day they get really big like 8 inches so far 1 female, we named her goldeen is healthy. The other 1 eats to much and the last two have some parasites to clean up.
My daughter just brought home a beta she found half dead at the pet store. She bought the biggest container she could afford for it (which was a small bowl). Much bigger than the sad cup but luckily he only had to stay in the bowl for a day and now he is loving his new 10 gal tank. And surprise! The fish is actually swimming along happily now. Who knew betas didn't like being in those tiny cups (I say sarcastically). The 20 year pet store owner- that's who! I told my daughter not to go back. We don't support businesses who abuse pets.

Me being a boy: Why can't I be your dad
Maybe you can be his crazy uncle?
Nope! Mom is only option, must select.
I started using well water in my 60 gallons after some test to figure it's safe... The fish seem soooo happy .
I like how Chris says he has no idea what no cap means but still used it in one of his songs.
I’m curious if there are people watching that don’t have a fishtank
Yes it’s me
Me
Lmao Pablo
If there are then I’m not one of those people. I have 2 fish tanks.
I *am* a mom with sons older than you, so okay, "hi, kid!" lol
If this channel had the subscriber count it deserves, there would be no more fodder for fish tank review because the cycle of ignorance would finally be broken.
Thanks for the content, dude. 👍
"Because I'm dead inside"
Same bro
Thank for making my Monday amazing with ftr Chrissy
I’m new here so I’m not sure if you e already done this but could you make a quick video that has all the things you DO recommend for the optimal beta tank? I’ve never put real plants in myself (I know nothing) and would love to learn, especially if it’ll make my fish happier and healthier.
No cap means "I'm not lying" 😂😂😂 omg
Mhm and its technically "No Kap". As Kappa is the "heh im kidding" emote on Twitch.
Together we can educate Boomers :)
I thgt it meant no cap as in no capital ie no exaggeration
I'm pretty sure it came from gold teeth. like solid perms vs gold caps. Get it... No cap lol this shits real
@@fioregiallo Im 1000% sure its No Kap and from Twitch...
@@MiraSubieGirl no cap evolved from "high cappin" which also refers to playing the dozens. It originated like in the 80s/90s... it's not from Twitch lol
Ay chris i got a kinda cool idea. i was thinking maybe u should add a little clip of any of ur pets the end of a fish tank review
i didn’t have a flame tetra, but i used to have a firefish goby! i know those are saltwater but in the four years i had him, he seemed to be very happy! he was kept in a 10 gallon tank with two other fish, a shrimp, and a crab! the firefish was named fireblade, like from fruit ninja lol, he was super cool and i was very sad that we had to give him back when we moved :(
I can't stop staring at the rescape of the ADA. Also it's so sad my friend has this baby musk turtle she is treating it great but she is keeping it in an ada and I'm so jealous cause it's beautifully planted and the musk is so adorable I have a red eared slider in an 70 gal storage container with half dead water lettuce. Sigh
I'm super excited because I feel like I finally have a tank I can submit to be seen lol, I just finished planting my blackwater biome 20gal and it's been growing and cycling for the past two weeks ^^ I'm happy to see how my betta Rojo likes his new house
The french come out of nowhere 😂(between that your french is sophistiquée vraiment 👍)
ahh ben merci bien
Okay about the zebra mussels in the Moss balls it is only Moss balls from a certain country in a certain area that are possibly infected with zebra mussels other ones have come in clean. It is very possible that this local pet store might have a supplier that is not infected by the zebra mussels. It is very important to find out where their sources from before you put somebody on blast, especially on the internet. The reason why it became a well-known widespread problem was because two major companies Petco and PetSmart we're paying for these to be shipped in from one particular distributor. Part of the reason to go to Mom and Pop and local businesses is they don't always have the same Supply chains as the big box retail stores. A lot of these mom and pop shops and far go out of their way to make sure they have good supply lines. Places like aquarium Co-op sit here and try to Source plants they know are hard to get in the Wild by funding local farmers to make them.
Chris: Whoa! That's brighter than my future
Lol 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Anakin Skywalker: I used pink gravel in my fish tank
Jedi Master Chris: He’s to dangerous to be left alive!
Karens: Spend no money on fish
Me: Spends hundreds on 16 ct fish
Karens: *shook* WHERE IS THE MANAGER
These aqua-scape artists make me so jealous!!
I'm making an ecosphere and I'm using the spinal bone of one of our cows that died a while back (don't worry, I scrubbed the hell out of it, its clean, I promise)...
This will be my first aqua scape enclosure... wish me luck!!
Chris when people say no cap it means there not lying
"Cap" means like lying
So "your capping" is the same as "your lying" but when people say "im not capping" there saying there not lying
"Oui oui madame voulez-vous aquascape avec moi ce soir ?" 🤣
It caught me off guard XD
Still waiting for the day when Chris browses the FishforThought subreddit, in the hopes that he'll see my post about a plastic ohko stone with plants decoration lol
Zebra mussels have actually been a problem in our waterways for quite some time now. What's new is they're getting into moss balls and the aquarium trade in general.
Me: finds new ftr
Comments: aren’t liked by chirs
Me: *wait, that’s illegal*
11:17 those "fish" pellets looked almost the same size as my turtle's food
I love coming home from school and seeing a new upload thanks Chris
I’m glad to have found your channel, the inspiration and insight into keeping fish is invaluable.
Chris looks like he hasn’t had enough coffee for today
First tank: I had a snail problem in a 29G planted tank with a group of mollies, was suggested clown loaches to take care of the snails. Fell in love. By the end of the year, ended up with a 125G metachrome tank I found at an estate sale for $300 (yah I know). Did all that clumsily, traumatizing water parameters for months (aquariums with dying fish is a repeated theme in bad dreams to this day), so much $$$ in chemicals and products... It turned out to be so joyful and rewarding. All that to say: clown loaches are goddamn adorable.
Chris im thinking of a summer job like a pet fish store to help people take care of there fish properly!😊😊😊
Thats amazing
The gravel vacc is so funny to me because I have three dwarf puffers, and one of them is always so curious and, despite my best efforts, that one specific puffer has gotten sucked up three times
When you're actually early for once: : suprised pikachu:
if anyone was wondering what 'no cap' means: when you speak with all caps LIKE THIS, it looks like you're exaggerating. So speaking something with 'no cap' technically means "i'm not exaggerating". over time "i'm not exaggerating" turns into "i'm not lying" since they mean similar things. so 'no cap' means 'i'm not lying'.
Me: Feels bad about my betta's tank
Me after seeing ftr: Wow, my betta has a pretty decent life compared to those bettas
A few months ago my dad and I bought 3 yoyo loaches and BOI they g r e w !
They’re the most active duo (one of em died unexpectedly and stayed small) in our tank at the moment haha very fun to watch ^^
Imma go get myself some flame tetras and rummynose tetras for my new tank :)
That goofy aquarium with the clock on the side is a good product....for bamboo and literally nothing else. I had one on my reception desk that I used just for some bamboo in the "fish tank" side and to hold pens on the dry side.
I know by the title this is gonna be a GOOD one
So fun fact! Zebra mussels can live if the temp gets below a certain point. The algae balls, it's not moss. Can with stand near freezing temperatures. Stick them in the freezer and let them get just to the point on of freezing then, take them out and stick them in fridge for a few hours then take out and let adjust to room temp. If you have one that is a bit brownish. Stick in the fridge over night it will perk up. It's a cold water plant and most of the moss balls come from the Ukraine not China not Japan. Zebra mussels originate from the Ukraine. Good luck to those have gotten them in the recent months. I buy them and rip them and glue them to stones, or caves.
Flame tetras and rummy noses go well together btw
That pink graveled tank looks better than my sister's. My sister's tank is properly sized with sharp gems, sharp plants, and SpongeBob decorations. Did I mention almost everything is a rainbow?
I'm just glad I convinced my dad to get her betta a 5-gallon tank rather than a half-gallon tank.
Chris: works eagerly to educate us about Aquatic animals!
Me: wHEre iS rEpAShy?
So I have the tank @ 2:50.
Its ok but leaning towards bad, I kept shrimp in, it was impossible to clean the filter since it was under the flooring and if you remove the flooring,you’ll spend 20-30mins trying to place it back cuz the alignment of the filter must be pinpoint for you to use the “fountain”
Every time I get a notification from your channel my heart goes faster
Chris makes you heart go doki doki???
Me: “they look like they are doin good.”
The fish: “I can’t breath.”
Flame tetra and Rummy-nose tetra....dont know what these secret code words are about tho??
Brand new to the channel.
3:52 i saw elsa, i cant unseen this with all so pinky gravel! 😂😂 dangg
So pink that the fish star to dissapear
Chris trying french accent.
French citizen: what the ????
Hey Chris sorry it's been a while. Pretty busy with teaching and recovering from a broken shoulder.
But I'm still taking care of my bettas they're all happy and healthy.
My arm does recover within 1 to 2 years I am going buy a new tank and I want to do a fully planted tank.
I think it's going to be pretty awesome.
When I first got into the hobby I didn't know about planted tanks I knew you could add live plants and they just gave me gravel they didn't sort of introduce me to aquarium soil and things like that but I'm going to do that:)
It's going to be my tank too my left arm recovering which is what I used to write with.
I have a joys of being tested
I'M A MOM NOW YAY :D
wait...
Hey just fyi, the info you gave about the zebra mussels was a bit off. You need to freeze/boil the moss balls and completely redo the tank. Only because the larve stages of the mussels are basically microscopic and will easily be sucked out during water changes.
One thing you could do if your really like you scape and wanna keep the tank is make sure your waste water after waterchanges does not enter a drain or waterway. You could pour it on a grass field or something. Or boil it first before sending it down the drain.
ME HAVING 8 CATS
MY BETTA: WHATS UP WITH ALL THOSE KNIVES
( FALCON AND WINTER SOLDIER MEME )
So I rescued 4 sarasa goldfish yesterday. They're really small now no bigger than my pinky. They are set up in a 30 gallon tank, bare with an aeration stone and filter, currently quarantining. I hope one day they get really big like 8 inches so far 1 female, we named her goldeen is healthy. The other 1 eats to much and the last two have some parasites to clean up.
This channel has grown so much since I started watching! Keep up the good work!
Yay he liked it!
My daughter just brought home a beta she found half dead at the pet store. She bought the biggest container she could afford for it (which was a small bowl). Much bigger than the sad cup but luckily he only had to stay in the bowl for a day and now he is loving his new 10 gal tank. And surprise! The fish is actually swimming along happily now. Who knew betas didn't like being in those tiny cups (I say sarcastically). The 20 year pet store owner- that's who! I told my daughter not to go back. We don't support businesses who abuse pets.
