Big thanks to Girl Talks Fish ( th-cam.com/users/GirlTalksFish )for being part of this week's FTR!!!
Fish
Betta fish
i think that the ''amano shrimp'' is actually a ghost shrimp
Irene is great. She has given a lot of great advice from REAL world experience with failures to success 🙂
Agreed 100%!
Haha, I'm _all_ about exposing my mistakes so others can learn from them. Save them some trouble!
j
@@FishForThoughtshe’s actually how I found your channel!
Even though fish abuse is awful, the fish keepers that started out with bad tanks but have grown and improved have learned some valuable lessons
very true!
True I started with a bowl a d 3 days later I got 15 gallon tank
My mom impulse bought a mustatd gas betta and then tried to keep it in a vase. I asked a friend if I could have a 10 gallon tank they were not using. I got some sand, and some aquatic plants and he has turned a very vibrant black from a very light Gray. I am so grateful that I subscribed and watched this channel because if I didn't that betta would definitely be in a vase.
🤣 I remember when I had my first fish. I had him in a .5 gallon tank with colorful rocks, a blue plastic plant, and a blue plastic rock shelter. Everytime I got home from school I would take that tank with me everywhere 🤣 My betta and I would watch TV together, I took him with me whenever I would cook, and I taught him some tricks. I graduated to a planted 29 gallon tank
aw xD
Well can you take the 29 gallon with you everywhere now hahaha
@@FishForThought always remember: if you cant carry it, its too big.
Aquascaping is one of the art forms that mastery doesnt come from making the art but maintaining the art.
That's a nice perspective to have!
@@FishForThought Thank you
You have my permission to steal ;)
Amen! I don't have the time to maintain something like an Iwagumi scape, so my tanks always devolve into jungle style. 😂
You, Irene, prime time aquatics and md fish tanks helped me in the start of my fish keeping journey and were really educational and inspirational. Love your channels. And repashy ofc
I watch them too and few more like aquarium co-op. But fft is the one that pushed me over the edge of getting aquarium. I'm still waiting couple of stuff I ordered to arrive, but soon I can start it up.
lets gooo!!!
Chris is the only reason I got back into fish keeping and know so much about betta keeping
I had never been this early these days watching FTR, gladly online classes had not yet started. Thanks for making our Mondays awesome bro Chirs :)
Have a wonderful start to the week Ian!
Goldfish irl: “i need a really big tank”
Goldfish in cartoons: *b o w l*
*b o w l*
You really got me into fishkeeping, I'm already owning a betta tank and community tank, while third aquarium meant for a crayfish is currently cycling! Thanks Chris!
woohoo! Let's go Julian!
My mom got me a 0.5 gallon tank for my betta fish. Then I did like 2 seconds of research and put it in a bigger tank. My fish is much happier now.
Here is my bad fish tank story; so my best friend got to fish sit one of her friend's fish.. She had lizards and a dog, but not really fish, so she didn't know that much about fish. The fish wouldn't eat so she asked me for help. She sent me the pictures and gave me the info. The poor dude was in a 2 or 3 gallon tank, not too bad for a tank size, but you haven't heard the entire description. The tank had a sponge Bob house, decoration with dirt on it, fake plants, and sharp decor and rocks. It was HORRIBLE. I just couldn't look at it. There was barely any space for the poor fish to swim. She was told me that the fish's owner said the fish is a betta- he was a flipping guppy!! I only looked at the fish once, and immediately knew he was a guppy. I showed my friend of a pic of a betta vs a guppy I found online, and she was horrified lol. She thought he was bloated, but honestly, I feel like it was mainly the guppies body shape (idk, I only own bettas 🤷♀️). I am pretty sure guppies need a group, but idk? It turned out the guppy was just stressed, he started eating thr next day. My friend's friend took their guppy back, but idk what happened to him. Hopefully he is still alive, but with his living conditions, I can only hope.
Chris is Bruno from Encanto since he knew your goldfish in a bowl was going to DIE!!! Keep up the good work, this content rules!
Thx Guillermo!
🤣
I don't know who's this woman is but she's amazing at first time aquascaping
haha yes!
🤗
It is 1am Tuesday here in Australia. Yup, story checks out, Chris.
ahahaha xD
A couple of years back I used to keep predetory fish I sadly lost my 8 year old Asian Arowana then I transferred my 9foot predetory tank into a planted can't wait to share it with you in the ftr
yeah our host is back !! And whats that thing behind her that keeps screaming?
I’m so happy that you featured girl talks fish! I also watch her videos, you both are the fish keeping youtubers that watch.
Don't you watch serpa design?
Thanks Ethan :)
🎶Last Chris-moss, I gave you a betta. 🎵The very next day, you put it in a bowl🎶Next year, to save me from tears, I'll give him to someone special.🎵
Thank you for all the quality content Chris. You inspired me to keep fish and it has been so fun, I really love how your humor has really been shining through lately
Thanks so much Mark! Cheers :)
Your videos give me a reason to live in these trying times
I am going too get my first aquarium and bc of you (and google) I know so much more about fishkeeping thank you!
When it’s bank holiday weekend so you’re not at school so you don’t miss FFT.
hahaha xD That's awesome!
@@FishForThought yeah it’s the queens birthday or something
Happy Monday Chris you are on fire this morning 💪🔥🙌💯
#WeLoveIrene
I know I do!!!
I absolutely love this!! This is what it's all about is learning each step of the way and improving!!! She absolutely takes it to a new level with each and every one of her tanks!
I really like your two cents on helping her with her most recent tank 💪🙌 What a great evolution!!!
Merry "ChrisMoss"🥕 especially after the other meme 🤣 Millie we love you and Chris, you do have a neck and are much more buff 🤣💪
Well ... do you know what brought me to TH-cam and finding your awesome Channel? That was getting my first "Betta Fish!! "
Always a great way to start the day!! Have a blessed one my friend!!🌿🐟🌿🙏♥️
PS for some reason I wanted to yell BINGO after you said the L numbers... Don't ask me why.....that's just where my mind goes 🤣🤣💕
Girl Talks Fish is where I got all my info in the beginning. Love her channel.
It’s always great to watch a FTR on a snow day ❄️
When I first went to buy my first fish tank I decided to go as natural as possible. Also took a look at the display case and I noticed they had a hang on filter but no heater and I realized that because I live in Taiwan generally speaking a heater's not needed the temperature is pretty much always the same
However the the weather does drop between January to March so I purchased a heater just in case.
I purchased a 2.5 gallon but I did not know that you should have curves so you don't cut yourself on the corners of the tank
Now that was good for my female she enjoyed it very much and lived a good 3 years.
Oh and I also had hardscape nice smooth River stones. I gradually moved up to 12 fish tanks but I still couldn't figure out what was killing my fish
It was actually the water despite the fact that it had been cycled properly and I added to chlorinator and did regular water changes only plan I could get to live was any kind of a nubious my female bettas they could live well but my male bait has died before 6 months
Now after 3 years people who are living in Taiwan let your water sit for 3 days in a clean water dispenser with a spigot so you can dispense the water slowly and find almond leaves.
You used Driftwood don't boil it let the tannins stay it really helps with your fish and the tannins also keep the water neutral
And I finally figured out how to grow a successful bunch of stem plants with only liquid fertilizer. Put them straight into the water and I tied them sort of like a small tree because my beta likes to rest up on them and turns out they sprouted roots I think I might actually get some River stones and see if I could place them down into the river stones but they're doing quite well.
I have another plant that's resting behind River Stones it's kind of anchored down but the roots are behind the stones and it's doing great with the liquid fertilizer twice a week.
My tanks do not smell. My tanks don't smell and I finally found something I'm somewhat good at and I created these tanks on a really limited budget.
Honestly I think for one tank I probably spent maybe 50 US dollars. I knew that you didn't need to replace the cartridge not because I just knew but because I knew businesses like to lie to people and tell them you need to replace things all the time.
I might just come with age but I don't use filter cartridges anyways. What I do use is biomedia with a nice sponge and then for the hang on filter with a low filter flow I actually just took a piece of sponge and I put it across the filter and used to rubber band works great and it's really good at about not blowing my fish around.
One day I am going to have a immaculate fish store and I'm going to teach Taiwanese people how to create a tank.
Yeah I can't wait someday and I will have my own fish room
Chirs do you know just HOW MUCH DO PEOPLE LIKE YOU?
No
not sure hahaha hopefully more than ppl who don't!
Real question here: why is it that I can find Java moss and Christmas moss easily and at a fair price, but finding Taiwan moss and flame moss are like finding honest politicians, and at insanity level prices? Maybe next chris-moss I will rescape my betta fish tank and use nothing but moss and Anubias
Buy online or from other local hobbyists and you’ll find better prices lol
haha yeah I guess those are more rare and less available... And moss grow kinda slow :(
Good morning! I’ve been watching your videos for about two years now and have decided to get into shrimp keeping. I’m getting a 10 gallon tank today and after the water cycles I’m hoping to bring some neocaridina shrimp home with me (single species tank with maybe a mystery snail) if you have any advice please let me know! I hope you have a great week!
a 10 gallon snail species tank sounds awesome! Good luck!
You inspired me to get into fish keeping... just got my first betta in a 10 gallon tank 3 days ago
I've got a couple Betta Fish and I really need to earn aquamarines to get Chris to review them, thinking about adding in moss
Just found this channel a bit ago. Pretty solid stuff.
I was so happy to find out I can get something as esoteric and personal as a Spongebob house for my aquarium. That was the first day I looked into fishkeeping.
Am I the only person who didn't start the hobby with a betta? My siblings and I got a 20g tall community tank for chrismoss i want to say 10+ years ago. We semi did it right... we got they cycling down, but not the decor. We had the whole fruity pebbles and glow in the dark plants. We have had guppies, mollies, swordtails, tetras, corys, frog, and danios (not all at the same time). We still have rainbow gravel and fake plants in it. Currently the stocking is mostly tetras with a loach, danio, and upside down catfish. I'm working on convincing my parents to let my upgrade to a 30-40g since the tank is poorly stocked. College has also hindered my ability to update the tank since I am not home to do the care. (Thank you mom and dad for caring for my fishes for me!) I have plans, just can't get to them currently. I did attempt to put floaters in it, but the current was too strong for them :(
Wow two of my fav fishtubers! Great video to end a stressful day! 😎🙃👍🌟
I love watching people learn and grow!
Thanks for the video! Really took away the Monday stress!
Chris is who I aspire to be when I have my own place
Hi Chris happy Monday, hope your having an amazing day. Great to see the main host Repashy is back. Cory gang for life!
Cory Gang 4 lyfeee!
Love the content never fail to put a smile on my face chris!
You really made my morning before school:)
i just binge watched ur entire channel
When you subscribe both the channels : " receives notification at the same time from FFT and GTF "
One of the first videos about the aquarium hobby was from the channel girl talks fish
This is very much helpful when wanting to get better in aquascaping
Chris: puts secret comments so that he knows if people are watching. Eveyone :lol nope
darn it!
Love the recognition for us aussies, you always start my Tuesday mornings
Needed more plants in my betta tank this Chris-moss
I just got off school and I’m instantly watching this amazing video lol!
I've honestly gotten more inspired to redo my tanks and try doing my own aquascaping after watching this. I have 3 I want to redo but it was put on hold because I've been recovering from COVID. I'd love pointers on some easy beginner plants that my Bettas and guppies (separate tanks) would love ☺️
i always wonder why people refuse to get a heater.. like.. it's so easy to just do it? lol
I hope someday I'll be financially able to get into fishkeeping again :) right now I have lots of animals to take care of, but your content inspires me a lot!
Nothing better than getting off of a 12-hour overnight shift and coming home to a fresh upload from Chris. Keep up the amazing content we sure love it! 😁
Ayyy! Hope you rest up well :)
Skipped school to be here…. Again
Damnn samee
Going back and rewatching all of these now that Chris Moss is coming up and I've got my new betta fish.
Thanks for doing fish keeping you really inspired me to get into fish keeping
Irene is such a sweetheart and her content is so wholesome. I really enjoyed this evolution clip!
Glad you liked the meme ;)
FTR litterly inspires me to make my fish tank so much better and everything else
Watching FTR is a good way to end my Monday.
Current aquarium water looks like scheiße now because we ran out of dechlorinator so kinda glad to just relieve the damn stress away with this video. :’D
Woohooo! Silmarillion! 😆
Really enjoying your videos, thank you for the awesome content, I just subscribed to your food channel, too. Thank you for being a fish hero! 5 out of 5 keep it up!
I just got a new fish tank 30L and gona get some shrimp and bettas 💪🏻
monday is my favorite day, watching FTR and eating instant ramen at the same time, probably my best monday thanks for making my day better chirs
Man these tanks are great and if I could ever get some aquarium soil fight attempt something similar.
I'd actually like to show you my tank is there anyway I could send you a picture just so you can see it
A tip for you Chris when trying to pronounce Cantonese characters or phrases try to use the back of your throat, its not quite the same as Mandarin so you also have to loosen up your jaw if you know what I mean. Hope you get better at it! Keep up the good work! And yes it was funny, I didn't even know you were trying to speak Cantonese. lol
The crossover we all needed! Would love to see some collaboration in the future!
Yes! More to come :)
Hey Chris!, you inspired me to fishkeep, I have a fish tank with a spoiled betta named creme
that L69 meme almost made me spit my drink, i was having lunch at work lmao
I searched you on TH-cam and you're the first result there .
I'm glad that works out!
Never thought the fish tank would be smaller then the cup they come in (poor betta)
Me: I really want some floater plants.
My pleco after digging out every plant I have: Not all heroes wear capes, am I rigth?
People in US and some other countries are lucky cause' here in India I bought an anubias Nana online for almost 5 usd and got the plant wrapped in newspaper with just 5 leaves and a rhizome 2cm long
Just don't buy aquatic plants online in India, I've found fish store sell higher quality ones
A year later I type Chris Wang and you are the top of the list.
Milly is the host, Repashy is the co-host Chirs is the backup co-host, and omg never do an Australian accent again XD
no, milly is fried chicken
No, Repashy is the host because she was the original ftr co-host
Hey, cheer up Chirs, it could be worse! Your name could be Michael
Great video!
Guy at my LFS, pointing at a piranha about 6” long: is the red bellied piranha aggressive?
Teenage staff member: famously.
Guy: Will my cichlids bully it though?
Staff: have you like, not heard of piranhas before?
🤦
At 1:38.. 😂😂 NOPE!!
Never knew Chris could rub my LOTR geek spot, but I`m here for it.
hahaha xD Glad to see another fan!
Hey question for you Chris, how long should I cycle a quarantine tank before adding fish?
I finally was able to buy a newbius barterra for three US dollars. I love aquariums and I love aquascaping and I love treating fish with humanity
Chirs I got panda corys now :)
I got a new 15 gal tank and submitted for FTR I hope it will show up. What you guys suggest to put together with a betta fish? Also, chrismoss is the funniest meme I have ever seen on this channel, keep up the good work guys👌👌👌
Welcome to Tolkien Lore. Shall be expecting more LOTR references in future FTR videos
“Hi this is chirs from KFM (Kentucky fried Millie) what delicious bird bits can I get u today “
omg wow its actually Monday (in Australia)
I love watching my fish swim around I love being blind
Lol
Genuinely asking, but is 5gallons big enough for like 3 or 4 tetras and a beta fish with some live plants? Looking into maybe going for 9-10g or even 15g from Fluval instead if it isn't, but looking into ones that have filter already even if I have to lower the flow of it. Also any ideas for a pea puffer tank?
Nice video!
Love this
I have a Betta in a 5.5 currently and was wondering about some tank mates for her. Any recommendations? She's a bit feisty, like Milly. Millie? Milleh? Ah anyways, love your videos dude, keep it up.
8:02 The movie we all want to see.
Good to see the host is back
such beautiful tanks
Happy to have a new video on my birthday 😊
you inspired me to get into fishing hobby
