After my French bulldog passed away I got into the hobby and I found out that all the creatures that you love they really do go to heaven. An amazing story behind that
I am so sad for your losses. I always looked forward to your videos, and learned so much, your tanks were an inspiration! Also your gorgeous camera/editing work. I have recently lost 3 of my bettas, but I have 6 others, and my oldest are still hanging in there and doing well. I have two new ones coming, and am looking forward to them, but I do understand the need to take a break. Your other tanks are also gorgeous and inspirational. Take good care, you've got an awesome heart!
Sorry they did not live longer. It is hard to get a betta that is bred for longevity. Take a well needed rest. I had a 10 year rest and now I think this is my last betta. One thing that helped my bettas live longer was a good heater and air stone to keep the water more stable in small tanks. Will miss your betta videos.
thank you for your kind words and sharing your tips! 😃 hopefully your last (maybe?) betta will have a long time with you! and i already do miss filming them...
It's always sad when they die but the memories and things you learned are a positive part of the experience. My pineapple Betta died about 6 months ago from dropsy. Your tanks highly influenced how I setup my own tanks. I absolutely love the colors of the gravel mixed with the plants and wood. To me it was just so perfect for what I like. Your videos are breathtaking and inspiring! Take care 🌺
oh no sorry for your pineapple ☹️ yes we keep the memories! i realized that when i was editing the video. it was nice keeping all of them. all of them were special to me. and i‘m so happy to read that you got some ideas for your setups! 😃✨
Sorry for your losses. Swim in Peace Flame, Flary, Stucky, Junior, Luci and Dotty 😔. Perhaps in the future you can try betta breeding project. So that the legacy of the parents betta you care for can continue to live on with their babies ☺️ Regardless, awesome videos and looking forward for future uploads!! 😊
Es war ein schönes Kapitel das sich nun schließt, ich freue mich aber auf deine kommenden Projekte. (Hast du schon mal mit dem Gedanken gespielt Bettas in der Wildform zu halten?) Ich denke immer mal wieder an die schöne und klare Gestaltung deiner Becken die mich sehr inspiriert. Danke für deine Videos!
Danke vielmals! 😃 Ja war ein schönes Kapitel. Das mit der Wildform habe ich mir schon mal überlegt. Aber leider gibt es zu wenige in der Schweiz oder ich habe einfach noch niemanden gefunden der diese anbietet. Ich hatte jedoch mal ein Pärchen "betta imbellis" gesehen und fand die noch interessant. Aber ja ich weiss wirklich noch nicht was ich machen werde. Irgendwie bin ich momentan froh dass ich nur noch 3 Aquarien habe, da der Aufwand mit 9 Aquarien schon viel war. Mal sehen wie ich in ein paar Monaten darüber denke. Die Becken habe ich ja noch! 😃
Aww sorry to hear they passed away it is sad i bought my betta Dec 2018 he still living he slowed down a lot now he just rests on his almond leaf most days But though it is hard to say i know he is a old guy now Thanks for the videos though i enjoyed watching
hi debbie. mine also just rested most of the time on leaves or on the substrate once they reached the age of 2 years. but they still got super excited during feeding time. this never changes ha ha! ah and your betta has also already reached a nice age which is great.
Im so sorry to hear of your losses, but still i am impressed on how you care much about your fishes, its like they each had their own jungle wherever they are now im sure they didn't regret living in the homes you provided. You are one of those people that inspired me to keep bettas and i am still doing so. In behalf of your bettas i would say Thank you 😁
hi there! 👋 that‘s really nice to read. thank you! i gave my best to properly take care for them. i hope they enjoyed it! 😄 and so good to read that you continue keeping betta fish. they are just great little pets!
So sorry for your losses I know how you feel,but thay all lived to a good age for them,I'm still thinking of getting another one the tank has been sat empty for 3 months now with just berite snail & rabbit snail,your videos are always inspiring & lovely to watch 😊❤👍
thank you! 😃 i have a feeling that after 3 months i might be in the same situation as you… maybe you will see one day a special one that you will bring home with you…
Such a beautiful video. Goodbye little fish. Can you please share where to get the stands you used for the Dennerle Scapers Tanks? The measurements of the tank has been difficult for me to find a proper stand. All the 10 gallon fish tank stands at Petco and PetSmart are too small. Thanks!
Always look forward to your videos, so inspiring and always so well presented. An unfortunate but inevitable aspect of fish keeping, but as others have said - they couldn’t have had a better environment and care. They really were stunning fish, easy to see why you fell in love with them.
You can always get more bettas. I have some beautiful double tails that I raised myself. I would be willing to give you some depending where you live in the world. It would be nice to see them on your channel and I think it would be the perfect home for them.
hi there! i know, that‘s why i‘m keeping the tanks. i just need a break for a moment. and so nice of you, thank you for your offer! i‘m sure they are awesome. but as i wrote i just need a little break to think about future tank plans. and i‘m from switzerland! 😃
You know I have to be honest in the last 3 years living in Taiwan I've probably lost at least 100 betas they're all male. First I was told I didn't need a filter so some of them died from disease then I set up a filter of course I cycle the tanks and then after that I still kept having fish die usually from swim bladder but they would also die from just sudden death Turns out taiwan's water sucks and it needs to be put into a plastic water dispenser let it sit for 2 days and then all the crud rises to the surface you skim the top of it and the water is ready to go I have not had any acidic water probably in the last 3 weeks the only betas that tend to do really well are short thin bettas I don't know why male female they can live one to three years Now I have to admit when I first started my gravel was colored but everything else was hardscape and Driftwood and live plants finally figured out how to keep water let us alive the only thing that can live well in my tanks it was anubius the reason I kept going was because I figured at least every beta I bought had a good home whether they lived 3 months or 6 months My females they all did very well lived two to three years. I've got three tanks two of them are now community tanks and they're doing great I was blessed to have three betas that get along great in their tanks with other fish. my point is don't give up you have such beautiful tanks and it's very easy to rearrange things in a different way. I changed my aquascaping at least once a month because I like having different looks with the little materials but I have I can tell you all my betas are in heaven. I didn't learn properly because sadly the staff are not trained well and because I can't speak Chinese fluently this is also a problem My own studying and looking at beta breeders and coffee breeders I figured out how to fix the water I say water is 90% of illness probably more I asked my sister to send me a type of pill that has seaweed and kelp in it because for some reason betas get constipated particularly males. If that doesn't do it then once a week my male betas will be getting a Epsom salt bath to detoxify their bodies I don't give them a lot of food I feed them once a day they get maybe two or three pellets and then I fast them on Sundays. I have really good pellets it's not cheap food it's high quality pellets I'm thinking of maybe giving them blood worms maybe this will help. sadly we don't have Frozen brine shrimp and Daphne if we did I'd give him that my point is keep going there's so many good betas that need a good home
hi there. i still have all my nano tanks in the basement. at the moment i'm setting up two bigger tanks and i don't know if i will get a betta soon. will first enjoy the other two tanks...
the internal filters came with the tanks. they are from the company dennerle called internal corner filter. the gravel (1-2mm) is also from the same company. and no co2. but i use liquid fertilizer and root tabs for the crypts…
@@freshwatertanks Thanks for answering all of my questions. I might buy a Dennerle tank soon. A 30liter. :) You hou have the best aquaria from the internet :p I love watching them.
@@freshwatertanks they have better genetics since they are either hybrids or wild species that haven’t been inbred for traits. For fighter plakats, they are hybrids or line bred wild species to be strong and aggressive, they also need strong immune systems to heal after a fight. So even if there is some inbreeding, because they are being bred for a sport they are produced to be healthy first and then fitness.
Rodrigo ist auch vor kurzem verstorben … ihn zu „ersetzen“ ist eben auch noch nicht vorstellbar. Sind halt Fische mit echter Persönlichkeit, oder?! Was planst Du mit dem tollen Aquarium Regal?
Tut mir leid um Rodrigo ☹️ Ja so einfach kann man sie nicht ersetzen. Wie du geschrieben hast: Jeder ist anders und alle mit viel Persönlichkeit. Das Regal und die Becken habe ich verräumt. Werde jetzt mal eine Pause einlegen und mir keine neuen Fische zulegen. Mal schauen 😃
Also kaufst Du auch keinen mehr? Meiner ist auch mit knapp 3 Jahren von uns gegangen. Ich kaufe mir definitiv keinen mehr. Habe auch im Moment jetzt nur das "große" 125 Liter. Alle anderen abgebaut. Das wurde mir zu viel. Lieber eins gut pflegen.
ja hast vollkommen recht. ich werde mir also keine mehr holen und habe momentan nur noch 3 statt 9 aquarien. mein traum ist immer noch 1 grosses becken zu haben…
Feel sad about your bettas 😭. You gave them luxury life but sad for them. I alway loved to watch your videos about betta tank 🖤. Thank you for that.
thank you so much! 😃🙌

i'm sure all animals go to heaven! 😃
Just found your videos, beautiful and inspirational thanks for sharing!
thanks a lot! 😃
They couldn't have better lives.
Be happy for the moments you had with them :)
You made them immortal with this wonderful footage.

Turns out taiwan's water sucks and it needs to be put into a plastic water dispenser let it sit for 2 days and then all the crud rises to the surface you skim the top of it and the water is ready to go
I have not had any acidic water probably in the last 3 weeks
the only betas that tend to do really well are short thin bettas I don't know why male female they can live one to three years
Now I have to admit when I first started my gravel was colored but everything else was hardscape and Driftwood and live plants
finally figured out how to keep water let us alive the only thing that can live well in my tanks it was anubius
the reason I kept going was because I figured at least every beta I bought had a good home whether they lived 3 months or 6 months

Will You make another project with bettas? If not maybe You need to have one betta to show him sometime in You'r video...:)
hi there. i still have all my nano tanks in the basement. at the moment i'm setting up two bigger tanks and i don't know if i will get a betta soon. will first enjoy the other two tanks...
Lovely set up , I see you mentioned the shelves were from ikea , could you link which ones they were please?
thanks! yes shelves are from ikea, model is called BROR. i bought 3 of them…
Nice video, can I ask what tank and filter this is? Do you also need to add CO2? :) Thx
And what type of soil is that? :) Do you need something more for the plants that we can't see? :)
the internal filters came with the tanks. they are from the company dennerle called internal corner filter. the gravel (1-2mm) is also from the same company. and no co2. but i use liquid fertilizer and root tabs for the crypts…

Hast du sie ohne Heizung gehalten ??? Oder hab ich die nicht gesehen?
Ja genau, ich hatte alle Becken ohne Heizung betrieben. Das Wasser war immer mindestens 23.8 Grad warm. 😃
Salut pourrais-tu me donner le lien du sol que tu utilises dans tous tes aquarium je le trouve super merci pour tes vidéos
salut. c‘est de l‘entreprise dennerle. le nom du sol est „dennerle crystal quartz“. (1-2mm)

Bonjour, c'était un bac denerle de combien svp ? Merci
bonjour. ce sont des dennerle scapers tank 35l 😃
@@freshwatertanks merci bcp 👍
Please tell me, the substrate is light brown or dark brown?
it‘s called roe brown (dennerle). it‘s the lighter one
@@freshwatertanks thank you, its on my shopping list
Try your hand at wild species and plakat fighter bettas, they might last longer for you
i‘m still taking a break vom keeping bettas. bit do miss them to be honest!

where did you purchase your bettas from? Sorry you lost many of them I know its tough
i bought them from a local breeder. i've recently checked her page but i'm not sure if she's still breeding bettas...
@@freshwatertanks wonder if she would ever ship to USA
i don‘t know! 🤷♂️ but i‘m sure that there are also awesome bettas breeders in the US

Do you keep bettas?
😃🙏
@@freshwatertanks Do you want to colab with me? 😃
What is the stands you use
they are from ikea called BROR
Rodrigo ist auch vor kurzem verstorben … ihn zu „ersetzen“ ist eben auch noch nicht vorstellbar. Sind halt Fische mit echter Persönlichkeit, oder?! Was planst Du mit dem tollen Aquarium Regal?
Tut mir leid um Rodrigo ☹️ Ja so einfach kann man sie nicht ersetzen. Wie du geschrieben hast: Jeder ist anders und alle mit viel Persönlichkeit. Das Regal und die Becken habe ich verräumt. Werde jetzt mal eine Pause einlegen und mir keine neuen Fische zulegen. Mal schauen 😃
Wow
Temperature?
always around 24-26.5c° depending on the season…
ja schade dass sie so kurzlebig sind da man sie ins herz schliesst, ich werde auch eine weilw brauchen bevor ich meinen wieder ersetze
ja das ist wirklich so. schon schade. aber eben, man weiss ja nie, vielleicht kommt die lust einen neuen zu halten in zukunft wieder! 😃
Mine habe also died in the last 8 months 😭 the oldest lived the longest....
sorry to read that 😭 swim in peace little friend...
Get some sparkling gouramis!
they could be a possibility but i will first take a break from my nano tanks for the moment…
