BEFORE AND AFTER | Jun's hair & fish tank

★Cat Merch! crowdmade.com/...
- Poor fish. Good thing we started vlogging or they never would've gotten a clean tank. Wait, what?
This was filmed Aug 11th, right before we left for Okinawa.
Everyone likes before and after vids! I mentioned in this that I was getting my hair done on the 14th. Well it was an ultra SUCCESS and that will be out on our other channel soon!

[@cynthiaperez1294]

Abraham rengifo lucky for him he has a female betta as stated and their tails are not as detailed as males. She also doesn't look like a half moon or rose tail more like a Cambodia breed so her tail will be fine with the small plants he has. I have a rose tail male in a tank for breeding purposes and his fins are fine with plastic and silk plants. The females in their breeding tank have more plastic but due to one being vieltail and the other crowntail they. Bave no problem. Just be careful and monitor their tails to help.

A lot of the food in Hawaii have Japanese or Asian influence because back then, a lot of Asian people moved from Japan, china, Korea, Philippines, etc. to work on plantations in Hawaii.

[@kristin6033]

Hey guys! glad you cleaned the tank up! please keep it up the fish depend on you and when ammonia builds up in their tank for too long they become really stressed and eventually die. Hope this doesn't across in a mean way, just want to make sure that your fish are healthy and happy

[@justine7126]

Creepy Bear That's... just very wrong. Please stop doing that. It's disgusting and your fish is not healthy, no matter what you are seeing/saying.

[@mexheix]

the ammonia will not build up if the tank is matured with nitrifying bacteria colony(these bacteria are found naturally everywhere so a tank that is old enough will have the bacteria colony) , these bacteria grows on all the surface, e.g. the filter material, they will consume the ammonia, so changing the water once a week won't affect the bacteria cycle, cleaning the filter and substrate will. However, the end product of ammonia: nitrate will build up, nitrate is non-toxic unlike ammonia, but it is still not good to have high amount of nitrate because when you change the water, the nitrate level suddenly go so low that it may shock the fish and nitrate is food for algae, so you will have algae problem. also, fish does not eat poop, they will eventually spit them out, sucker fish also won't eat poop. it is a myth that sucker fish will eat poop, the poop is actually being consumed by the bacteria inside your tank and decomposed into substance like ammonia.

[@mexheix]

rabbit will only eat a specific kind of poop which are half digested, their digestive system is built like that, but fish and rabbits are totally different animal, fish don't have a system like rabbit, so even your fish eat poop, it is most likely that they just mistaken the poop for food. but even if so, it doesn't help with removing the waste in your fish tank, because the fish will release the waste eventually, and not absorb into their body(otherwise, they won't produce the waste at the first place). the waste will then turn into ammonia, the bacteria will eventually convert ammonia into non toxic substance nitrate which can only be removed by water changing or plant absorption. this is why nature is awesome, it converts harmful substance into not harmful substance so life can be sustained and this is happening in your tank, your tank is basically a miniature ecosystem.

[@killerslowpoke]

Creepy Bear if your fish are strong and healthy, you're either lying, you're in denial, or you got really lucky. No fish can be healthy in that kind of environment. What kind of fish do you have, how many? What's the size of the tank?

[@killerslowpoke]

Creepy Bear well, it's pretty simple actually. If you can't afford to care for a pet properly, don't have it. Why do you think it's uncommon for people to own horses? Because only the stinkin rich have the space and money to satisfy their wants and needs. And fish in general can require a LOT of space, time, and money to care for. Oh and speaking of needs, silver dollars have to be in schools of 6+, grow to the size of a small dinner plate (so they need very big tanks,) and live to be about 10 years (that is, if they're given good care) so I hope you're planning on dealing with them for a long time.

[@wolfco47]

The phrase 'say hello to the fishes' is part of a scene(s) in several mobster movies where fictional characters execute other fictional characters by fitting them with 'cement shoes' and then throwing them into water to drown. The villains say this as the other characters sink into the water screaming. You can probably find a clip from an old movie on youtube in fact. It is a pretty famous line.

I guess Rachel would then be the, um, err...bubbly 6-year-old girl who brings innocent joy to Handa's sedate life. Hey, didn't Jun do a funny calligraphy skit previously? It's actually a charming anime whose rural village atmosphere is not unlike that we see in Rachel & Jun videos. However, I'm rooting for the show's aspiring manga artist middle school girl mistakenly self-convinced that the calligraphy tutor is actually a yaoi guy living out a secret village BL drama! Every incidental interaction with Handa ridiculously morphs in her imagination into God's Test of her sinful insatiability for Boys' Love, lolol!

[@Amanda11D]

Beta fish is just a fish that likes to be the only one of its kind in a tank and can be aggressive towards other fish

[@cowlufoo2]

They originate from Thailand and are very beautiful fish, though they are aggressive and should only be kept one per tank.

[@emoXjessiX2030]

They are pretty little fish from Taiwan but are very common as pets all over the word. Most kept solitary but some do really well in community tanks with the right fish. I normally keep mine with just a snail or a shrimp. I have bettas for 3-5ish years before I get a new one. They are easy to care for and fun to look at.

[@grey_roses]

You can keep several female Bettas (just as beautiful as males & neat personalities) in a 'sorority tank', so long as everybody has some personal space & there's enough going on in the tank to break sightlines. That said, my 4 girls used to hang out together pretty often. :)

[@cowlufoo2]

+grey roses it should be said though that if there's any sign of serious fighting after figuring out the initial hierarchy, that the bullied or troubled betta should be removed. and I've read from multiple people that keeping 6+ is best

I honestly think it brought more attention to it. I know I really would not have noticed otherwise. But then again the pervs look for that stuff it's a good thing to have. ;)

[@Peorhum]

It does sort of draws attention to her boob more then otherwise. I for one would not have noticed if the censor had not been there. Reminds me of being at my bank a few weeks ago. The teller was wearing a nice dress for the hot summer weather that showed alot of her bosom which I did notice then instantly forgot as we got down to business. Her bosom was the last thing on my mind as I saw her as a professional in a professional setting. I ended up talking with her, with both of us trying to get my new bank card working for about 20-30minutes. She was quite nice and helpful...BUT...every few minutes she would tug at her dress cover more of her bosom and each time she tugged at her dress it drew my eye to her bosom distracting me. I was at one point about to say "please stop it, I am not looking and trying not to look but you are drawing my eye to your boobs." but being the setting I tried to just ignore her hand movements. As a guy you tend to do a quick once over then focus on the face unless your thinking, then I may look away to the side or down. Trying to make it more often the side as looking down can make the lady think you are looking at her boobs when in truth your mind is off in deep thought land.

[@RachelandJunAdventures]

+Antiglow You would have noticed. It was impossible not to notice, and after doing KZbin as long as I have I know exactly what comments I would have gotten. Obviously I covered it with a cat face so I'm not trying to secretly hide the area without anyone noticing anything.

Don't you use a machine to cut Jun's hair to make it smoother and not cut into straight random lines? I cut my older brother's and younger sister's hair ever since I was 14 and I've always used a machine. :P

[@RachelandJunAdventures]

+Eiko Pumpkin No, I didn't cut into straight lines and it looks fine after he showers. He would never let a machine near his head.

[@Pumpkin0_0]

Rachel & Jun's Adventures! If it looks fine after he washed it, then it's completely fine of course. I noticed the little lines on his hair and thought they could be more faded with a machine. I just had a small OCD moment.

[@RachelandJunAdventures]

+Eiko Pumpkin I used to use a machine on my brothers, but Jun would never in a million years let a machine touch his head. I asked literally the first time he asked me to cut his hair. I didn't bother combing it or waiting until he showered because I honestly didn't think anyone would care this much in vlog video. I wasn't trying to make a super fancy video or give a tutorial or anything. It's just a quick cut in a daily life video. Next time I'll comb his hair and make sure he showers before showing the result.

[@Pumpkin0_0]

Rachel & Jun's Adventures! My older brother is the opposite. He's not that much of a fan of the scissors. Oh, that's okay!!! There's no need to think too much about it for the video. It's just hair after all, and you don't have to change what you do on camera. We all know your life isn't all on camera. It's just something I randomly noticed and pointed out because I also cut my siblings' hair. I mentioned that it's fine. I still enjoyed the video just as it is. You don't have to go out of your way to please anyone just because they don't see what happens when the camera is off. :P

I'm really disappointed in the way you neglect your fish :( You're supposed to do weekly water changes and clean the tank a lot more often than every few months. You wouldn't let your cats live in their own filth, so why do it to your fish? Plastic plants are also bad for your Betta's fins and you should consider removing them from the tank and replacing them with real plants or maybe something made from a softer material than plastic.

You have a fish tank?! What do you want to keep in it?? :) You could do an amano-style setup with algae shrimp and neon tetras, or a community tank with an ancistrus and some guppies/platies.

[@BakoBako863]

[@deadlyneko6484]

Hey Haitaka123! I've read your comment and I may really need your help because I'm planning to buy myself a fish tank. I'm moving out of my house and in the new place fish are the only animals that I can own because cats and dogs are forbidden, small rodents as well. If you don't mind I would be very greateful for any advide what kind of fish should I buy for my fish tank and how to take care of them. I've read a lot of articles, but keeping in mind that you're an long-time Aquarist it may be easier for me to understand what I should do :) Thank you in advance for any tips :)

[@MrTheWaterbear]

No problem! An aquarium size of minimum 10 gallons is advised for keeping anything. Stick to freshwater. A few general pointers: remember to get a heater, get a filter rated for 1.5 times the gallons in your tank (if you have a 10 gallon tank, consider getting a filter rated for 15-20 gallons, etc.), good fluorescent lighting, a layer of gravel substrate the depth of your pinkie (dark gravel looks nicer over time), and some live plants. Anubias nana is a very good plant that grows slowly, is extremely hardy, looks pretty, and won't be eaten by fish. Alternatively, Java ferns and sword leafs are good as well. Remember to add a little aquatic plant fertilizer with water change, and remember to treat the water before putting it in the tank. When you set up the aquarium, follow one of the many guides to season it for two weeks or so before you add anything living. Furthermore, you have a few options, for which I'll give my recommendations: - Community aquarium with a mix of small-ish, peaceful fish. Always keep a pair of ancistrus catfish (NOT plecos, they get too big!) to keep the bottom clean, and give them a rock or piece of swamp wood (you can buy from pet store) to hide in. As for fish you can get danios, platies/guppies, dwarf gouramies, rasboras, etc. and small shrimp, african dwarf clawed frogs, and aquatic snails. - Species aquarium with either a few angelfish, a few piranhas, or something like a freshwater puffer fish. Each species has different requirements, but these are all relatively forgiving starter species for a single-species aquarium. These species require tanks larger than 10 gallons, though, so if you want, you might consider keeping an axolotl or fire-bellied toad in a 10-gallon single-species tank. - Unheated aquarium with goldfish. Goldfish are messy and like to dig up live plants, so having a big filter is critical. You do not need heating, but lights are obviously necessary to see the fish. Most goldfish require something like a 20-gallon tank, but the smaller (deform) varieties will be very happy in a 10-gallon. TOP TIP: do not overcrowd your aquarium early on! Start with a few small, very hardy fish once your tank has been rested for a few weeks according to instructions. Once your tank has been running a few months with fish and plants, add more plants to get it relatively densely plants (if you like that, otherwise just sticking to a few plants is fine) and then you can fully stock your aquarium. Feed the fish dry food with the occasional treat of live or frozen food :) It's easy!

[@Peorhum]

betas are more then fine with other fish, including guppies. They are just not good with other males. I had a tank once loaded with fish of different types including 1 male beta and 2 females and they were more then fine with the other fish.

[@Jemima1377]

I'm not planing to get fish but I had some a couple of years ago and this is a very good guide. Stick to it, everyone! ^_^ It's real good advice! =) I'm not sure about this aquarium not having living plants - doesn't seem good to me. Poor fish?

Rachel that vacuuming scene killed me! :')

[@moira329]

The tape was just randomly found at my mom's house. When you make the butter mochi, even though it says 55-60 minute cook time, check it at 45 minutes. Also I learned the hard way don't use whipped butter, it just leads to disappointment and sadness. I hope you like the mochi! It's back on sale at the store now.

[@robj2558]

The tank looks awesome! I love the new additions. The fish are probably really excited at all the new places they can explore

[@nick4005]

the plastic artificial plants could hurt the fishes fins try artifical silk plants they are softer and won't hurt your fish. :)

[@rakellidin3802]

Your cats are so cute 😻 Stay awesome 👊🏻

Rachel & Jun's Adventures! Do you have a scedule in any of your channels? Because then I will know when to look forward to you guys. (Im not new like hmm... I have been watching your videos in my reccomentions and continue watching because I am really strict when subscribing but you have won my heart in all of your channels so goal is to watch all of your videos, that's what I always do. Oops sorry for blabbering😧😁)

[@aquaakita981]

That's horrible! Do a 30 percent water change WEEKLY not a deap clean each month! Would you wanna swim in your own waste!?

[@WojtekGolaBezPindola]

ᗩqua ᑎerd the beta looks really sick as well

[@Luna-lr2vf]

Plus imagine the cycle crash that poor betta has to go through! Poor baby..

[@Hazztech]

Aqua Anonymous I already kinda do

[@markleyp03]

I know this is super late, but with that canister filter on, there's no need to do water changes that often.

[@markleyp03]

Tbh, looking at his tank, its way too disgusting. He's being irresponsible, but in my 5gallon tank I have a betta a small filter and a ton of plants, my ph is 6.9, and the ammonia is 0. I have had this tank set up for more than a year without a water change.

I love how much Jun loves his cats. It's adorable. He'll just pick up the nearest cat and hold it throughout the video.❤️ Am I the only one who loves this?!❤️😄

[@forestque1531]

Rachel looks so pretty!

[@raulbenitez2795]

I hate to tell you that some pointed plastic plants are bad as a decorative for the fish my fish has really bad problems on their fins when I had it. the fish like to go under n between the plants. just saying 🙋☺

[@meepthebunny]

Hey Jun! I just thought you should know that your tanks filter is waaaaaay to strong for your fish! I would try either tetra or Fluval brand in tank filters. You Betta should really be kept alone! You can see the fin damage from the other fish pecking at her! This could also be caused by the type of fake plant your using. Bettas have realllly sensitive and delicate fins that are easily torn by plastic plants. Silk plants for much better for them. If you want to get live, get dwarf hair grass. It grows quickly and needs nothing.

[@meepthebunny]

OH! For the amount of fish you have the bare minimum tank size is a 10 gallon tank. The tank NEEDS TO be cleaned WEEKLY with 25% of the water changed AT LEAST weekly. The tetras or guppies (I couldn't see) do best in schools of at least six so you may need a bigger tank! I hope you read this !

[@censusgary]

Every fish tank needs a good cover. Not just for cats, but because fish jump.

[@roedoresdeoliveira]

I just cant pay attention tô you guys when there's Haku on the video, I just cant, Sorry, he's too adorable ahhshahsh

[@diyarav]

I hadn't watched you guys' channel for a while, but stumbled back upon it just now. Jun's English got so much better since I last heard him :D Awesome!

+Rachel & Jun's Adventures! Thanks for replying

[@emacristescu4548]

Wow I didn't realize yet!

[@regurii]

Please put some live plants in there, it's incredibly important for the fish. They create a good water environment (all the ammonia and nitrate in that tank...), and the fish will suffer without them unless you know what you're doing... Just a tip so your pets will feel a lot better, even if you didn't know it was a problem.

[@janakiyo9340]

As someone who lives in Hawaii I recommend that u look up the recipes for da butter mochi because those mixes definitely don't taste as good as the homemade kine.

[@kellyphung4472]

Jun the cactus

[@almadeckard8360]

Jun's samurai hair! LOL! ! !

[@MrTheWaterbear]

Please get some real aquarium plants! I recommend anubis sp. or anubis nana, they'll stay alive, don't worry about neglect ^^ It's a misconception that no plants is easier to take care of, just like its a misconception that a small filter is better because you can clean it more often. Big filter + live plants = happy aquarium ^_^ Beautiful Siamese fighting fish you got there, btw. Should consider getting a female to go with it :)

[@RachelandJunAdventures]

I will get real plants again once I settle down. I love real plants. :) -Jun

[@gric4529]

totally agree with you, real plants will increase oxygen in your tank too.

[@MrTheWaterbear]

Misconceptions regarding keeping mutiple betas in the same space abound. Really, if you invest in creating a densely planted aquarium with structure such as the fake root Jun/Rachel have in their tank, you can keep two males and three females with almost no problems. Also helps if you have 5-10 medium-sized peaceful fish such as platies in the same tank. I've bred betas that way and never had issues with stress or aggression :)

[@catherinedesbiens8995]

...You know you have to do a water change on your tank every week right? How did you just let half of the water evaporate?

[@jdiondealca329]

I love how Rachel is just so extra lol

[@Lobod287]

You aren't alone Jun. My hair is the same way. Every time I get my hair cut it's like a crawled through a thorn bush.

[@Decadent.artist]

[@AllieeLee]

you had live fish in that fishtank?! dayum man =.='

[@DestructoPop]

how could I not like a video in which you vacuum like that?

[@alicematthews498]

I vote for shorter hair for Jun, maybe he'll let you do it if you let him choose a haircut for you in return?😁

[@alicematthews498]

Something similar to what Masaki Okada has?

[@RachelandJunAdventures]

I've asked him before what other hair he'd like to see on me! He liked this the best lol. And as much as I'd really like to see Jun with short hair sometime, I don't think there's anything I could say to convince him to try it haha

[@idontcare4242]

I have 3 fish tanks and one is on the floor and my cat just doesn't care. If she's thirsty she'll actually drink the water

[@Nibbit]

I have loads of real aquarium plants and they don't take much maintenance at all =O.

[@Nibbit]

I suggest getting some oxygen plants. Those only require pruning once in a while.

[@RachelandJunAdventures]

The only issue is we've been traveling this entire year, sometimes gone for a month at a time. There's only so much we can ask Jun's family to take care of while we're gone. >< Jun did keep real plants before this. As far as we know next month is the end of our insane travels so we should have more time after that to start maintaining things like normal again!

[@Nibbit]

I wasn't judging! I hope I didn't seem that way. But I still stick with my suggestion. Oxygen plants can go months without any worries =). Even with pruning. The fish tank looks fantastic now. Y'all did an excellent job.

[@indigosquid0720]

I had 2 female betta fish that were pinkish/white and a dark blue one, like yours, with black stripes. They fought with each other the first week nipping fins, after a while they didn't care anymore. Betta fish are lovely. They even learn the things surrounding the tank like certain people and noises. :3

[@aleenr4425]

I love your vlogs.. you have to do a butter mochi video taste test!!

[@kumikohigurashi5366]

wait, the fish were inside the dirty tank????!

[@therealestpotato7464]

Thicc and powerful

[@kunoichichica]

Jun, please... PLEASE take better care of the fish. Lol I beg of you. I know for a FACT it takes months to have your water look like that. You can do probably a 50% water change once a week so that you wont have to go through the trouble of dumping out the entire tank. Remember to turn your light off for 8 hours to mitigate the growth of algae. Also, if you got some real floating plants like duckweed for example, it would help with the excess nutrients in the tank and would also keep algae under control. I don't wanna make you feel bad but the state that fish was in was no different to how you originally found Poki. :(

[@oliviasanborn5970]

JUN HAS SASUKE HAIR I'M SHOOK

[@pleinair]

My husband's hair also gives him splinters randomly! Now I know why he always (kind of embarrassingly...) is desperate to dust off /right/ outside of the salon after a haircut. He always wants to run home a.s.a.p. to shower after a haircut, I never put two and two together until now, ha. :)

[@iteungwelah]

srsly i thought shes gonna cut that emo front bang of jun that would be the most satisfying thing id ever watch and i honestly would trade anything to make jun cut his super rigid front hair 😄😄

[@BearMarie96]

You need real plants in the aquarium, the fish can cut themselves just by swimming past the fake plants....

[@killerslowpoke]

Hey Jun, I know this is an old video but those neon tetras should/should've been in groups of 12+, and with that tank, there wouldn't be enough room to put that many. Not sure if they're gone by now or if you've done something else with them, but just wanted to make sure you and anyone else knows! (It's also best not to recommend fish as pets, especially bettas. most people don't do any research about them, they're really an expensive, time consuming, and tedious pet, it takes a lot to care for them!)

[@thebeanlife4409]

oh boy, i know this video is 5 years old but i realllly hope you guys did more research on how to properly care for fish. your tank should never get to that point and if it does, maybe consider not having fish if you find that you dont have time to take care of it properly ( i dont mean that in a snarky or mean way at all, some people just get too busy to keep up). this is so so stressful for your poor Betta and i died a little seeing it in that state T,T its a pretty small tank so weekly water changes should only take up maybe 15 minutes of your time ^-^

[@kaanktea]

Don't let your fish tank get so dirty.You will hurt the fish and can fry their gills. And the Beta can lose her scales and her tail,it is already a little chipped. :( Beta fish are really smart ,you can even teach them to play with you and jump out of the water for food. They are so cute and wonderful. :3 I know people think "It's just a stupid fish" but they are really smart and you get attached to them very easily. I cried when my baby male Beta (Pug,because he has that Pug face) got hurt, but he's ok now. And I have a big Gold Gourami (Domo), also a boy and I cried when I found him almost dead ,with his gills badly damaged because my younger brother forgot to take care of him for weeks (Domo was his at first) . He got a lot better and he is fine now and a good boy ,always playing with rocks in his fish tank in my room. ^_^ And I never liked fish. I am a girl who wants a Zootopia in my backyard,including polar bears and sharks ,but all animals grow on you after a while,even these tiny creatures .

[@aliciaperkins4291]

You can't keep a fish tank like that, that poor Betta. Even if they can withstand that kind of water condition you shouldnt make them have to. That's how they only live to a Max of 8 months

you could get one of those black fish that eat the algae off of the walls of the tank so that you wouldn't have to clean it as much, if at all
