What other fish do wild bettas live with in the wild?! Re-release fry for conservation of wild betta
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 2 ต.ค. 2024
- Video showing a small part of my conservation work for Wild Betta smaragdinas in my local area with the re-release of 100-200 fry that were bred from parents which we collected last year into their habitat to help stabilised wild population, later in the video we also attempted to see what other inhabitants were living amongst wild Bettas for a better understanding of their environment and potential tank mates.

They don't fight each other?
Love your kiwi/Aussie accent and what you are doing....I would like to order 2 full mask males and you take care of shipping to Wilmington DE 19809 USA. Please send PayPal to email Kt.radiology92@gmail.com
Thanks 🙏
@@ktholmes2978 we'll discuss before processing the order via email. Will send an email with details you you shortly
Can you export wild betta into india
Hey, which part of Thailand are you at?
Frank doing an awesome job breeding his alien bettas and conserving the natural state of wild bettas at the same time. Mad props
🤔
'Obviously watch out for snakes & leeches' says the barefoot guy in the pond...
Would freak me out paddeling in there like that! He's got some guts.
I'd be more worried about pieces of glass or sharp metal in the water. People throw their waste just about everywhere.
This is really great! I really want to improve my wild tanks and do a better job trying to recreate a natural habitat and this is SOO helpful and educational.
Thank you Kasia!
I don’t have another tank available for another betta. Kasia, have any that would be good in a mixed community setup? Our water should be rather similar
Frank, first off, thank you for your conservation work. So many breeders are just worried about producing fish and getting their money. With you looking to the future and working to maintain these fish at a sustainable level and further, at a genetically pure level, you're doing so much more the hobby, and we appreciate it.
Secondly, I was curious if the pond you're releasing the young adults into is on your private land or if it's public? The concern, of course, being that someone might come along after you've released fish and capture them for their own use.
Third (and I'm sorry for bombarding you with multiple questions), do you know what TYPE of loaches they were that you mentioned seeing while releasing the bettas? I'm very curious because I'm planning on setting up an authentic biotope aquarium for bettas (which, yes, I plan on purchasing from you), and I would, therefore, like to include the same specific types of other fish found in that environment. Are there any shrimp or other crustaceans present?
Its someones elses land and this place is open to people catching but only kids who are just getting into the hobby which does remind me of myself as a kid usually catching doesnt have as a big impact as its not comercial so people just do it to get fish to keep rather than catch to sell so numbers dont get effected at all so thats not a worry.
The big worry is since its this persons land they may fill it in at any time, ive alqays thought about saving money and buying it but it would cost much less to build an actual pond for this line on my own land
images.app.goo.gl/tYYEBK1BwCXMD6hm8 here you go these little guys
@@Franksbettas Awesome! That's so good to hear. Thank you!
pH less than 5. Jeepez, tough fish.
You could become the absolute top Betta channel on TH-cam just by releasing videos more often and regularly! The coverage of their natural habitats is unique to you. I would love to see more of this.
This is effing amazing, show us more of the water habitats around you. Bettas, Gouramis anything you can find! I have Opalines, Pygmy Gouramis and Splendens (not in same tank lol) and would love to know the fish they would likely coinhabit with.
Wow, I really love the look of wild bettas! Am I the only one who would prefer wild ones/ natural colours over bred ones?
This is how I want to retire, with some chickens too.
Right! So peace and giving back to mother nature.
away from viruses and able to self sustain!
@Alpha Centauri yes, some people just doesnt appreciate the presence of viruses...
The sound of the jar rotateing on the glass table....i love it:)))
Love your videos! Being able to see their natural habitat and your conservation efforts is really something special. You offer the hobby valuable insight that we couldn't get anywhere else. Keep it up!
This video is gold man. I always struggle to find information on a fish natural habitat when I want to set up a biotope. I hope everyone who is able to access natural habitats of different species of fish would follow your example! Keep it up!
@SG Bearded Aquarist Yo! Where you been?! 😁
The video was perfect. Keep up the good work with the Betas and videos. They are very informative.
Thank you!
I am so stupid!! I read your discription on what you guys are about n let me just say you guys are awesome..just awesome..tjanks for sharing
lol thats what i have been commenting that betta need shallow water , foreigners keep putting them in big ass deep tanks
Sure, depth has priority over stable water parameters, filtration and temperature... wait...
@@csillakaszas7285 Honestly, the answer is to get long tanks. A 10 gallon-long, for example will have about the same depth as a 5 gallon with all of the benefits of a typical 10 gallon. It's just twice as long as the 5 gallon. That's the best type of tank in my opinion at least.
sdq sdq Not all foreigners put bettas in big ass deep tanks. Some of us do our research, want what's best for the fish. And do what is right.
I live in the USA, used to breed betta splendid in my home so I've always wondered what the fishes' natural habitat would look like, thanks.
I'm speechless, this is so great, the environment, the way you respect and describe the nature and the fish.
Nice video Frank! So cool to see they can be so vibrand of colour in the wild too. And just seeing them in the wild and the work you do for them is really cool! Keep it up :)
Thank you so so much for supporting!
I remember DM'ing you quite a few years ago on IG about your conservation efforts as a young betta breeder myself. It fills me with joy to see you continue the very much needed efforts of conservation which most breeders do not pursue, you are an inspiration to me and hopefully many other breeders out there.
It fills me with passion and appreciation for the wild species keeping a few aliens and seeing the differences in behavior, they are beautiful and fascinating and I want more, but don't know which species to pursue! Frank, is there a particularly troubled species that conservationists should focus upon?
That catfish almost looked like a baby Chinese Wels Catfish
love your video especially when you put back the fishes into the pond.
Thank you so much for doing this. We need more people like you in this world.
Bro...how do u speak so good English...ur English accent is also so different..
anyone have a scientific name for that catfish he found?
A baby Wallago of some sort, maybe?
looked like a baby wallago attu
Great video fella and hello from wales 🔥🔥🐲
very cool and useful video, thanks
Wow! Just found your channel. So interesting seeing how they are raised in other countries. Very cool! Thanks for sharing. I like how passionate you are about caring for them.
Have you lived in England before?
Lol his accent I thought the same
Love those red tail rasboras!
Amazing job!!! Super cool to see all the different fish as well! One question if that's okay! Do the wild type bettas need any different care than the domestic ones you find in petstores?
Great Video yet again, big shoutout from all the IGL members and wild betta researchers/breeders/enthusiasts from Germany. Your work does so much in terms of awareness for wild and naturally occurring betta species. Would love to get a profile on all the other species in the splendens complex in their habitats or different type localities. Hell, as a huge B. Rubra & B. Macrostoma fan, I would kill for a habitat video, if you are one day in the Indo/Brunei area.
Keep it up!
wow i love it that you're doing conservation work.... thanks for doing it in behalf of all the hobbyists who want to do it, too, but can't.
How come you have a strong english accent?
Studied in the uk
@@Franksbettas oh ok I'm from west london. Near wembley.
The best video I have seen for a very long time! Amazing job mate! Had no clue wild bettas live in habitat like that :)
Keep up the great work! Maybe can invest in a gopro for underwater footage, which adds a whole new dimension of visual content to your channel. Cheers! :)
Definitely saving for one hehe
I'd recommend the Akaso EK7000. They're as good as Go Pro Hero 6, but like $50 USD.
I'm on my second one, lost the first in the ocean.
Snakes? Leaches too? I’m staying home then.
😂🤣
The catfish on the video is Ompok sp. , possibly O. krattensis or O. bimaculatus.First time here, love the channel..
I want more of this stuff, great video, great work
What an amazing video! Very informative and inspirational. 🐟🌱🐠 Do you see nerite snails in the wild betta habitat? If so, are the shells healthy? I love having a planted aquarium with botanicals but I wonder if it’s healthy for nerites? Thank you again for a great vid - stay safe and well 😁
the catfish is ompok bimaculatus
ถ้าทางจะบ้าปล่อยไปแล้วยังจะมาช้อนโชว์อีก เห้อออ สมองจะสมอง
I have that Rasbora..bought them almost two years ago and yes,they like stay where I have a Syngonium with its big root system in the water and the plant above..its a big aquarium and those little fish are near perfect schooling and darting. In fact,months ago I added three small Roseline barbs and the two fish looked so much alike they schooled together. Now? no-lol,the Roselines are much larger these days!
Love the random ompok catfish! Pretty sure it was an ompok siluroides
great video love what youre doing
I've had the idea of getting a wild betta tank for a while now, so discovering your channel is like porn to me :p
You should take more than 2 pairs next time, you bring back genetic diversity into their habitat when you release the fry.
พูดอังกฤษคล่องจังครับ
8:00 fuck my ears! Dear God stop spinning the jar!
Very Awesome!! 🏆
Thank You for what you're doing to help with conservation. 👍
My first Betta was named frank ❤️ beautiful red Betta
For any of you wondering about the loach!
images.app.goo.gl/tYYEBK1BwCXMD6hm8
Lovely! Good luck for future endeavours from India.
I have a question that if Bettas can live in the wild with other fish then why can’t they live in tanks with other Bettas?
Would love to see underwater cam. Excellent content.
so all those fancy bettas arent natural? like halfmoon, crown and fullmoon?
Thats right those have been in selective breeding for decades
Halfmoon is atleast very close to the wild ones cuz aside from coloration their find are the same
@@apdroidgeek1737 plakats are closest to wild ones.
domesticated trough selective breeding
wait, are there fullmoon bettas?
What does the baby betta fish eat in this natural state ...?
i wish i could win the nxt raffle
Good job, brother. Love your content.
You are Thai. Your English is so good.
I'm crazy for loaches!! I keep 15 different species and want more..lol I am so curious now what loaches you have out there, I assume spiny loach and syncrossus species? Don't give up on trying to catch some!!!
images.app.goo.gl/tYYEBK1BwCXMD6hm8
These guys
@@Franksbettas yes the chulabhorn loach!!! These are amazing species and really cool your able to get to see them in natural environment, they are banned from export and I'm guessing are highly endangered from habitat loss although I'm not sure what you are seeing out there first hand.... either way they are so cool!!!
That that one girl they built a house in the Village
Ok i read your discriprtion
Great content frank. Your editing was fine dont worry about it .. did you keep some back incase that habitat is lost
I always have this bloodline in new habitats ive made yes!
They are naturally wonderful and beautiful even they don't posses glowing colours.
That's a ghost knife fish isn't it
a I really like your content
Oh u cleared my doubt , I was wondering whether I can put the banana leaves in aquarium water, thank god I watched this video , subscribed and liked
Great video and beautiful fish! Loved hearing about what you have going on at the farm and seeing you get out and collect
It's so nice to always watch your videos Frank Bettas...I admire wild bettas...but I am having quite a hard time identify males from female wild bettas...Any checklist to keep an eye on during gendering wild bettas? Thanks in advance Frank.
Welp, looks like I need a wild betta
Great Job!
If i go there looking for wild bettas i bet i would only be getting loaches
Thanks so much for these videos. Hobbyists here in the States always wonder how the habitats really look. Great job and thanks again!
It's baby Sheatfishes. ปลาตอง หรือปลาเนื้ออ่อน ไม่ใช่ปลาดุกนะ คิดว่า
Thanks for the awesome work you do to preserve the natural numbers! 🙌 I have a commercially bred Betta in with some Corys and a Bristlenose, and I’m looking to set her up in a tank more suited to her liking. (And also to be able to move some of my incessantly breeding shrimp into the big tank.) This video helped give me ideas!
This is so cool! Do you think boraras brigittae or bororas naevus would be good tank mates with a wild type betta?
Yes! Ive kept those before with these
@@Franksbettas sweet! Was wondering maybe they are TOO small, you know? Fish food 😂 those red tail rasboras look about the same size as a betta so wouldn't be a concern with them but those guys are so so so small. Lovely!!
Great job mate!
Thank you for showing us these unusual pictures.
There should be more guys like you to show us the habitats of all fish we try to keep. Could make the keeping much better and more natural.
Such a nice project and such nice videos. It gives me some hope for the world! Keep up the good work!
Franks, I'm from Malaysia. Can I buy will betta from u?
Always watch your videos big fan from India 🙌💜
Hi Frank, is this your compound? So then you can protect it from being missused.
❤️
This is so cool
Thanks for sharing. The fish look great. Returning them to the wild is a noble thing to do.
Wow your pronunciation quite impressive. Kudos to you.. Keep on uploading 👍
I had try tetra as companion my betta.... It not going well. The betta kill the tetra
Fantastic! I always wanted to see the natural habitat of these beautiful fish. Keep up the great work!
Great video thanks for sharing and caring. You are braver than me going barefoot 😜👍🎈
Amazing how much life is in those unassuming little puddles
Thanks for the great video! TH-cam needs more videos like these. And now I want to go to Thailand and catch and breed Bettas lol.
So would it be preferable to have a shallow tank with 5-6 inches of depth and a larger amount of horizontal space?
If youre betta is from a pet shop theyre used to a very narrow space, without any aerator or filter system, but i tend to spoil my betta, and set up a planted tank for him..
naahhh rescue those pet store bettas and spoil them the best setup you could possibly give.
The catfish is related to glass catfish, possibly called a spotted catfish.
Really great video. Gave me some nice ideas for my new tank. Thank you for sharing.
Watched a ton of fish vids on here... 1st time seeing something like this...thank you. Subbed.
Great video bro ... absolutely enjoyed watching and learning from it. Thank you for sharing your work with us and thanks for conserving the wild bettas. You Rock!!😇🤘
Friends, how come the Betta fish that are confined together in such tiny spaces don't fight/kill each other?
they don't INSTANTLY kill each other...when they settle, they will fight
Nice video , ive see those rasboras at fish shops sold as brilliant rasboras theyre beautiful!
Cool video thanks for sharing
Where is this?
