I’m new to the hobby and your videos have been incredibly helpful so far! They are so well-made and it’s clear that you spend a lot of time on the research. Can’t wait to see how your channel grows! Since I know you’re an anime fan, my name suggestion for the first betta is ‘kakatte koi’. I know it doesn’t work out quite as well because he isn’t a koi betta but his coloration kind of reminds me of one and he does seem pretty feisty haha
Thank you so much!! I have been doing a lot of research about what fish I could have in my new marine land portrait tank as we as care, maintenance, etc. Finally decided on a betta but then I read it should be in a rectangle tank not tall cause it would be stressed trying to get air at the top. I was ready to give up. Glad you have one in your tank. Now I will go back to original plan. Thanks again.
I bought a halfmoon plakat with a similar koi pattern to yours a few weeks ago, I'd been waiting to find a good one for months, super happy I waited for a good one he's got heaps of blue colouring all over him with red and black and flesh pink
Always like watching your videos, I have learn a lot from you and I am soon about to purchase my first tank to raise up a betta fish. What online store do you use to purchase your fish and plants ?
Gus is cute! Thank you for all ur knowledgeable info! I just bought my son his first pet fish betta and I discovered in the process that it’s def a hobby i want to pick up! Subscribed to ur channel today and will be on here to watch ur videos for info! Great channel!
We just got a koi Betta (male). Black and orange today, he looks amazing,,,, this video was actually entertaining and really mellow to my wild mind, it brought calming effect to me
Just got one of these tanks in yesterday and was all set to do shrimp and celestial or chili rasbora, but those beautiful plakats have me thinking about bettas again :)
Great video and awesome looking fish. Looking forward to seeing more of those tuxedo guppies. What's the hook attachment you used to fill up the betta tank after cleaning? I have the Marineland portrait and have been looking for something like that to simplify water changes.
I love blue Nemo! I know it's old but that's his name now lol, the other one, Chester after Chester Copperpot in the Goonies 😂 And that tank looks beautiful 😍
Name suggestions you say?? I GOT YOU Caspian, Umber,Persiom, Samovar, Vermillion,Ophaline,Cerise,Bondi,Beryl,Sarcole, Fluvous,Coquelicot and Falu :) (Ik they’re weird but here you go lol)
love the videos but I have two questions...what was the thing called that you used to fill up ur tanks and what editing software do you use to edit ur vids?
If you’re into Seinfeld, “Art Vandelay” or “Costanza” could be good choices. Also setting up my first ever aquarium next week. Patiently waiting on the supplies you recommended in your marineland 5 gallon tank video.
The new Bettas r so beautiful! I'm not good at naming fish but I'm sure someone will suggest a great name! I'm not big on guppies but I like the color variety they are available in.😊
Do you have any videos on preparing a 5 gallon betta tank without the really long fishless cycling? I'm on day 6 of fishless cycling w ammonia at 0.5 and nitrite at .25 w day 5 of seachem stability as instructed and initial dechlorinator. This betta was for my 4 year old son and our first one died in 12 hours, but little did I know I did not warm the tank nicely or do any kind of cycling other than dechlorinator. Maybe the betta was sick to begin with, he was nowhere as active as your new betta. Can I do a 50% water change to this current water, continue w stability and add a new betta after good acclimation? Keep checking the ammonia everyday?
what youre describing is a fish-in cycle! while i don't recommend it for beginners, it is very possible to do that if you stay on top of daily water changes and continued water testing! a lot of people go that route while some don't like the ethical implications (i personally have no opinion on it). nonetheless, sorry to hear about your first betta, but youre right, some come in very sick to begin with
Was that the Aquarium Coop "quarantine med trio" protocol? Can you give me the medication and water ammounts for the cup method I see you using here? I don't necessarily want a 10 gallon setup every time I quarantine. And my math is so bad I'm going to kill a fish someday.
Hi! How long would i have to cycle a tank before putting a betta fish in it? And is it absolutely necessary to do this? I'm planning on getting a betta soon
How much of the Seachem Prime do you use I have this same tank and got all my supplies off of one of your videos and I just don’t know about how much of the Prime I need to use in my tank
I always do this if I get a new beta I currently have I have four babies and a tank of guppies they're male. After rearranging their tank they seem to be less aggressive. The guppies are new so I don't know as much about them as I do betas but I tried to study as much as I could. there was a tail number I think because I noticed that four of my guppies had tears in their fins and I heard splashing but since I had always had betas I didn't know anything about that so after I moved the decorations in my tank cuz I did a water change like a complete water change and I also really cleaned out the gravel it seems to be a lot better there's no splashing anymore and it seems like everybody's getting along well now thankfully I have almond leaves in my water three big leaves and I put in some aquarium salt so I'm hoping that the fishtail will heal and they'll go back to normal or pretty close to it Do you know how long it takes for a tared fin to grow back because it looks like chunks were bitten out of the tail fins on the guppies. Just those four I was actually thinking of taking those four out and maybe separating them but I'm not exactly sure what I should do
Your videos are really useful! Thanks for all the information. Would you mind share where you bought your betta? I'm looking for trusted website. Thanks!
i think they have their place for fry, but they foul the water fast so i wouldn't use them for adult bettas since there are other options out there - just my opinion though... they're a great source of protein nonetheless!
He is one lucky beta and he's quite beautiful. I have like an email I would love to show you some pictures of a beta that I rescued and when I bought him he was Gray he was moving but Gray and after 1 week of clean water with almond leaves and good food he turned blue red and pink like a pinkish color not like a light pink or like a neutral pink
hey could you remove the filter out of the betta cause you will not allow the betta to create a bubble nest by that you will take away the nature of the betta thanks:)

it's comments like this that keep me going! appreciate it
drop down some name suggestions for our new friends!
@Jay Jitkidd33 any betta with the marbling gene (like kois) can change color to an extent!
Such nice B roll!! For the colorful one, skittles could be a cute name :”)
awesome suggestion and thank you Ashley!
I love your videos and the quality is off the charts! Keep grinding your channel is going to blow up someday
appreciate the kind words!
I can’t wait for your channel to blow up!
means a lot noe!
I was inspired after learning about the marineland tank.. but after seeing this clip.. I see there's levels to this.. you goated 🤝
Thank you so much!!

Call him JOKER , the colours are perfect and he has a lot of character
Lets go!!!!!!! New to the channel here. You and your fish are awesome :)
thanks for coming through, Rohan!
great content, i wish you have youtube shorts. this is so satisfying Pharmaquatics!
Everything was just beautiful from the fish to the music that betta is spectacular 😍
Thank you very much!
Beautiful betta and tank! ❤️Can you post a video of your water changing system? I kind of figured it out but I tutorial vid would be awesome!
I'm loving all your videos!! currently cycling my fluval flex 9 gallon :)
Great video! What do you think about the filter on this tank?
actually think it’s overkill for the size of the tank but at least i know it’s doing its job
I bought a halfmoon plakat with a similar koi pattern to yours a few weeks ago, I'd been waiting to find a good one for months, super happy I waited for a good one he's got heaps of blue colouring all over him with red and black and flesh pink
Great video as always! That Plakat is amazing! I can’t find any good fish in person or online everything is sold out glad yours finally came in.
thanks Jesse!
Great video and looking swole!!
we're trying out here 💪💪💪

welcome to the hobby! it's definitely a great one to be in with tons to learn about
So rare that it doesn't even look like a Betta! 😮

We just got a koi Betta (male). Black and orange today, he looks amazing,,,, this video was actually entertaining and really mellow to my wild mind, it brought calming effect to me
glad you liked it!

can't go wrong either way! :)
Nice tanks bro, I have the same betta and albino koi guppies
aye good stuff man and thank you!
Great video and awesome looking fish. Looking forward to seeing more of those tuxedo guppies. What's the hook attachment you used to fill up the betta tank after cleaning? I have the Marineland portrait and have been looking for something like that to simplify water changes.
this is what i use: amzn.to/32GrUYJ
full setup with all parts is in the description!
@@Pharmaquatics Thanks! I must have missed it
I love blue Nemo! I know it's old but that's his name now lol, the other one, Chester after Chester Copperpot in the Goonies 😂 And that tank looks beautiful 😍
great choices! and thank you!
Your tanks are gorgeous!
appreciate it!
Name suggestions you say??
I GOT YOU
Caspian, Umber,Persiom, Samovar, Vermillion,Ophaline,Cerise,Bondi,Beryl,Sarcole, Fluvous,Coquelicot and Falu :)
(Ik they’re weird but here you go lol)
wow - love the blitz of names! all very unique too
Beautiful fish! I need to get back into keeping guppies
guppies are great!
love the videos but I have two questions...what was the thing called that you used to fill up ur tanks and what editing software do you use to edit ur vids?
got it from here (amzn.to/3gwtzYM) and I use premiere pro
@@Pharmaquatics thank you sm
Where do you get your bettas from, Harry?
If you’re into Seinfeld, “Art Vandelay” or “Costanza” could be good choices. Also setting up my first ever aquarium next week. Patiently waiting on the supplies you recommended in your marineland 5 gallon tank video.

What is that attachment you used to fill water back in the tank? I need that!!
did a video on my setup! th-cam.com/video/xxlkD3yGJxA/w-d-xo.html

Angie i don’t know why but it’s the first name that came to mind and it sounds cute
haha great suggestion!
Did you use tap water to fill
Up the tank and then searchem prime ?
yep!
Was that the Aquarium Coop "quarantine med trio" protocol? Can you give me the medication and water ammounts for the cup method I see you using here? I don't necessarily want a 10 gallon setup every time I quarantine. And my math is so bad I'm going to kill a fish someday.
Can you do a video on how to make that pipe to fill the tank? It's the best one I've seen so far
will add it to my list of videos! in the mean time, here's what i use: amzn.to/32AseZ3 + amzn.to/3gtcChV + amzn.to/3ncXx5B + amzn.to/32Bfgu7
Where did you get your fish from? I'm trying to find a reputable quality Betta company.
Try KG tropicals. Google them. They have a great channel and they are serious about properly breeding and caring for bettas. Cheers!
My betta immediately started foraging for food as soon as I released him in the tank today.
he mustve been hungry
Hi! How long would i have to cycle a tank before putting a betta fish in it? And is it absolutely necessary to do this? I'm planning on getting a betta soon
having your tank cycled is arguably the most important step, usually takes a couple weeks. youll know once your water parameters stabilize
@@Pharmaquatics i see, how will i know if my water parameters are stabilized?
Where were the beta fish delivered from? Where do you recommend to get them?
How much of the Seachem Prime do you use I have this same tank and got all my supplies off of one of your videos and I just don’t know about how much of the Prime I need to use in my tank
i use the notches within the bottle cap, the directions help you figure out how much is needed!
Very cool video..
For the name suggestion:
I would name him Ares. 🙋🏻♀️
I just got 2 koi bettas today. 1 juvenile and 1 baby
He’s so cute 😊 I wish I could add another male to my aquarium but I heard that wouldn’t be such a good idea. I think his name should be Frankie
two males are definitely a no-go but maybe other tank mates if your aquarium's big enough!
Where did you buy the fish from
Done with care ❤️
I always do this if I get a new beta I currently have I have four babies and a tank of guppies they're male.
After rearranging their tank they seem to be less aggressive.
The guppies are new so I don't know as much about them as I do betas but I tried to study as much as I could.

Where did you get your betta?
I’d like to know where he got the fish, because I need to find a good place to buy betta
Your videos are really useful! Thanks for all the information. Would you mind share where you bought your betta? I'm looking for trusted website. Thanks!
ebay!
When's your head gonna grow? jkjk looking ripped man keep it up
Hey man where did you buy your Betta fish?
ebay!
What's your opinion on feeding hard boiled egg to adult bettas???
i think they have their place for fry, but they foul the water fast so i wouldn't use them for adult bettas since there are other options out there - just my opinion though... they're a great source of protein nonetheless!
I'm new to the hobby but I hope one day I could have my own fish room it's just really expensive at the moment
Let’s goooooo
yessirrrr
Someday we'll gonna be successful in life 💗💖
Where did you order the fish? Great video 💕
ebay!
Dude you’re actually so cool, you’re into the hobby so much and you’re so underrated :((
(Name idea: Tie-Dye)
haha just taking in what the hobby has to offer! appreciate your kind words 🙌
I also have a koi betta fish. I named him 'blub blub'
love that!
What do you use to fill tank back up?
this guy: amzn.to/3gwtzYM
ARE THEY FRESH OR SALT WATER FISH ?
FRESH
@4:53 What's the snail in your betta tank ?
nerite snail!
Where did you order your fish from? TIA!
ebay!
Picasso 😊
i like that!
He is one lucky beta and he's quite beautiful. I have like an email I would love to show you some pictures of a beta that I rescued and when I bought him he was Gray he was moving but Gray and after 1 week of clean water with almond leaves and good food he turned blue red and pink like a pinkish color not like a light pink or like a neutral pink
hey could you remove the filter out of the betta cause you will not allow the betta to create a bubble nest by that you will take away the nature of the betta thanks:)
presence of filtration has nothing to do with whether a betta decides to make a bubble nest or not lol
@@Pharmaquatics no it can ruin the buble nest by the water movement
@@jerbeebecina6420 so you’d rather have no filter? lmao
@@Pharmaquatics lol igot six unused filters
Love the video, but why does every video i watch on here have to have that snapping music crap.
ill put some screamo on next time
TNT
I like it!
What other fish could you add in the tank with the Betta?
