Love this! I would add that bettas need a place to hide and a place to lounge near the surface (like leaves) especially if they are large finned. And to be sure tank decor is smooth and won’t rip fins (e.g. real or silk plants over plastic) or that it doesn’t have small holes they can get stuck in (they like to wedge themselves into small spaces). Oh, and match water temperature too when you do those water changes!

It's mainly younger hobbist that do that cuase they don't know how the sizing came about. The 2.5 gallon long is considered the bare min cuase that is the min tank size you need to keep a betta healthy.where the 5 gallon came from was it was suggested has the ideal becuase no matter if it was a long or tall it would have the right tank length for swimming space. Then a small group fish keepers heard the word ideal and decided that the ideal should owes be the min.

0:54 Irene, that's a lot of Prime for that tank! My water is pretty well-chlorinated (it smells like a pool out of the tap), and one drop of Prime is good for 2.5 gallons. It's potent stuff! And it makes your water smell like garlic and broccoli, to put it politely. Way more potent than Tetrafin conditioner. Thiosulfate has a very low toxicity in general, but it can harm invertebrates. I learned this the hard way when it killed my daphnia, moina, fairy shrimp, and triops I had going last year :( But great job! I love your videos so much, I'm planning to show them to my class on Thursday. Learning how to care for a pet can be a great way to teach responsibility and self-care.

Remember, when you get any sort of new fish in a bag, don't put it in the tank immediately. Put the bag in the water for it to get used to its surroundings, if you have lights turn them off! It can be stressful for the fish, but after about 10 minutes, you can turn them back on :-)

All great tips. I have several male bettas. I've found they are less stressed gradually stepping them up to a bigger tank. I start mine out in a one gallon filtered bowl (with silk plants) for a week, then in a two gallon filtered, heated bowl (with silk plants)for another week or two then into a 5 -10 gallon tank.

As far as sponge filters are concerned, my favourite are Poret foam ones, as they are incredibly resistant and efficient. However, I'm not sure of how readily available they are world-wide. There are definitely ways to make one yourself if you get the foam on it's own, but you can also get them through Swiss Tropicals in the US or Angelfins in Canada.

I had a betta fish I kept it in a five with tankmates ! I know looking back it was way to small to have tankmates . It was way to aggressive and killed 1 of its tankmates and chased all the other ones . I had to re home him and instead get 2 new guppy’s in replacement for him. It’s sad cuz he’d let me touch him (pet him) and he was to cute! I miss him but I’m getting a 50 gallon and moving all the fish in my five into that new aquarium so I’m hoping to get a new betta and put it in the five gal :D

Hey Irene.. Brilliant video. I recently saw a jet black betta kept in a polythene cover the other day. It broke my heart to see him. So I brought him home. His name is Cederic. He's in my 10 gallon tank with a couple of guppies and snails. I have no plants and I don't get water conditioner at my local stores. So it's just plain gravel with a heater. He seems to be enjoying himself chasing the guppies around but every once a while, he gets all finicky at the edges of the tank and hits his head against the edge. Is this normal?

Oh, congrats on your upcoming betta fish! I'd say that some great beginner plants are marimo moss balls, java fern, and anubias. They don't need to have special lighting or substrate, so you can just super glue the roots of the java fern and anubias to some pretty rocks or driftwood. Then you can easily move the plants around if you want to redecorate or vacuum around them with a siphon. :)

Hey, Irene! Please help! My betta has ich. He has catfish (albino corydoras and plecos) as his tank mates. What’s the efficient and safe way to heal him and the whole tank, please, as I found Ich-X nowhere? The temperature is 86ºF/30ºC now. I’m more worried about the catfish.

how much flake food do you give one betta per day? Or freeze dried worms? I just got a new guy and not sure how much he supposed to eat.

How do you care for your blind Betta? Because my halfmoon Dumbo Betta from PetSmart went blind on me after having him for 3 months! And I'm trying to learn as much as I can to care for him!

I just got my firs Betta fish. I was against pet fish before but it was my only option for owning a pet. Now mine is a blue one as well. Im struggling to keep him company. I feel like I should put a lot of enrichments in his 20 liter tank. Im a couch potato as well. And for lowering the stress i usually switch off his lights during the time I'm in the same room as he. Pls comment if im doing stg wrong and how i can improve his life

I got my Betta 6 months ago. I am not sure how old he is. His fin is tight. I test the water and looks fine. I don’t know if it is normal, if he is young one.

Rest in Peace Robert. You Were A Good Boy ); Died on his favorite plant eyes closed. Thought he was sleeping. Til, I saw his skin, pale, silver, white, my first pet. May you be loved Robert. Robert loved bloodworms. Side Note: I watch the whole video, wow. Only 2-3 minutes.

Hi. Did you have any idea why the betta fish no active? Ty for reply
@GirlTalksFish
@GirlTalksFish 4 жыл бұрын
Good question - it could be happening for many reasons. Was he active before and then his behavior been changed? Is he still eating well or is he overweight? Is he getting enough oxygen? Is his water clean or has it been a while since his last water change? Does he look injured? Try searching online for any symptoms you see to research into possible illnesses. Good luck!

Hi Gamer's wife! How did you get Mr Gamer to understand the importance of quarantine and the nitrogen cycle? Someday i'll have to explain those to my parents so that they don't get mad at me for buying several aquariums.... Thank you for replying😊

@GirlTalksFish 4 жыл бұрын
Haha, he's very smart so it was made a lot of sense to him when I just explained the logic of quarantining to him. Also, he's seen my fish suffer from illness when I didn't quarantine and neither of us want that to happen again.

I love the look of dragon stone, but it has lots of very sharp edges. Isn’t that something that should be avoided with a Betta fish’s tail?
