BETTA Tank UPGRADE SHOPPING SPREE! **Update On BREEDING** 

I wouldnt reccomend the aqueon quietflow 10 internal filter, its horrible and dosent clean the water even when fish arent in it

Seriously. I bought the TopFin 10 gallon starter aquarium kit. Came with all the necessities and obviously since it's not that expensive you can always spend money on a different filter or other equipment. Got it for $50.

beta does not even need filter, breed them and raise them in just plastic cups lol

@@Rusmix I wouldn't want to live in a plastic cup.... probably neither does a betta

They're LITERALLY considered tropical fish which require more care, only ignorant people treat them as throw away fish. Do research before you even talk.

Christine A Lucas my mom wanted to get a 2 gallon tank for my Betta and I blew up on her. I feel bad for any fish that have no space to swim and grow

@@kariestet6030 2.5 gallons for a betta is the minimum. I have a betta in a 2.5 gallon tank and a betta with 3 snails in a 10 gallon.

darinn jendrzejewski Thank you so much! Yes of course a heater is a must!

My beta stresses at degrees more than 70 so I keep it at 67

Actually, that is too warm. They will get stressed if you have it more than 70 degrees Fahrenheit

@@randomuser2212 right mine seems to do that alot i bad to lower the temp down to like 66 67.

I like it!

Stepen Curry I agree

@Zenxc Pop The purpose is to raise it. And he's gonna know how to feed it and what it needs. And if it dies he kills one not like the whole pack of baby the betta gives birth to. U see my point

I actually have a baby beta and right now she's in a half gallon tank but when she gets bigger I will upgrade her tank to a bigger one she's absolutely adorable. Sadly in Taiwan they don't have large acrylic tanks so I actually had to create my tanks out of large critter keepers. That's the equivalent of 3 and 1/2 gallons. My filters are set up with an air pump that goes into a tank and it filter but the flow of the filter is not low so I had to set rocks on top of it to create a low-flow setting. In Taiwan all the pet stores tell you the same thing betta's don't need a large environment they don't need a filter to keep the water clean they don't need an air pump all they need is a daily water change 100%. that's exactly how far of my bettas died. They died because they developed fin rot because they didn't have a filter even though the water was in a larger container. And there heaters for betta's oh my God they're annoying I can't get the heater to work because the heater has a sensor to regulate with the temperature in the room and in the tank I can't get something that I can just plug in and it heats the tank that's all I cannot find it. so at best I can only hope that my water is okay for my fish I believe that's what's causing the fin rot because I can't keep the water a certain temperature everything else is fine. I cycled my all of my tanks and I put in gravel as well as plants well really just one plant in each tank and a place for them to hide yeah. so tomorrow I'm going to the pet store to go and get antibiotics for my fish who does have the beginning stages of fin rot and I will be treating all of my fish so I can prevent them from having fin rot in dying because it's the only problem I have with fish at least with betta's. another guy told me I needed to do a 20% water change once a week and then at the end of the month clean out everything but make sure that I don't touch the filter sponge because it has good bacteria and I've got all the proper chemicals all everything that was needed I have. I know it's causing the fin rot the Fisher coming in sick I think what happens is they arrive healthy from the places that raise them but then when they get into the pet stores they don't take care of them well they're not put in large containers they're not given medication as a pre-emptive strike to get fish diseases they really just don't care they stick them in a cup that's like a very tiny drinking cup and they put a lid on it I can't tell you how many fish I found that were dead in the store

wow I totally love your tank it's awesome I wish I could get something like that in Taiwan

Lifewithpets Thanks you so much! That means a lot. Of course. We want to educate people the best way we can !

Sheliaaaa! ♡

@@rosemary.-6576 Yass samee. Ily lifewithpets

Perfectly said please don't become another crap buy pets for views poor care channel

ShutUpI'mGay he can add neon tetras and small shrimp....

He could put cory cats and guppies

@@iancahyo5260 Nah neon Tetras need a 20 gallon, yeah he could put shrimp.

@@Pelz18 Nope cory cats need 10 or 20 gallons of water, and guppies won't go good in a 5 gallon with a betta

I’d say only one snail because betta fish are territorial and you don’t wanna overstock your tank.And even though snails do have hard shells you don’t wanna test it

🤣

Oh my gosh I just realized that 🤣

Adriana Lisette i may do that soon!

Thank you so much for advice!my father is helping me breed bettas can I feed babies frozen Daphnia i cant find live food;(

me lo did you not listen to what he said?

Soon!!

Because its ugly

@doctor speed your ugly

A male is just as active as a female, they just need to rest more because we have given them big heavy fins to swim with

Shorter finned bettas, male or female, are more active as the tail doesn't hold them back.

Active or not, they deserve the same amount of space in my opinion. As long as the current is minimal and there are resting spots in the middle and high areas of the tank if it's a taller tank, it should be okay. My super delta male does fantastic in his 10 gallon and I wouldn't give him anything smaller. He's very active and the current in the tank is so discrete he looks like he floats (in a good way!)

They both need a bigger tank it doesn’t matter about the gender

Erin Lynn Thats such a great idea! Its like a 2 for 1! Im definitely going to look into it! Thank you for the support!👍🏻

Barbs Buzzin, you can find really good dividers from Life With Pets (another RU-vid channel). I have 4 really like the them!

Doing that isn't as a great as an idea as it seems. One being that the bettas still release hormones, pheromones and such into the water, making the bettas able to sense eachother and therefore stressing each of them out. Another reason is that if the bettas decide to jump over and get through the divider, you'll end up with a dead/severely injured betta. Then lastly, if you have a female on one side and a male on the other, the female can actually become egg-bound due to the male. Much better to stick with separate tanks.

Never had problems with a divided tank if done correctly. Hormones will not be released, and the pheromones will not be an issue. The only time they will be stressed if they can see eachother and are constantly flaring. otherwise, they will do fine. Females can become egg-bound regardless of being in a divided tank or not.

Hormones and pheromones are an issue, it can easily stress another betta out in a divided tank. Yes, seeing each other will stress them out, but fish release hormones and pheromones into the water, the bettas will be able to sense each other and get stressed because of it. I am aware that females can become egg-bound regardless of a divided tank or not, but the fact is that it increases the chances due to other hormones being released from the male.

Pet Craz Thanks so much for the tips that helps a lot! Just ordered a nice heater for him! Gonna hook it up tomorrow!

Cool!! Thank you! 😀

Rhaven Nightwisp Yup we know, thats not the breeding tank

Blue Bowser Thanks so much!!

Cynthia Wright Thank you! Big things coming!👍🏻👍🏻

@@The_FishGuys I expect you will be doing that you deserve all your likes thank you for the videos and for being a good role model

Females also need a nice spot to hide! So the more females, the more plants!

Elise Thank you so much! Were going to make some more saltwater videos forsure!!

Colin and white

I love it! In the future we will do it!

@@The_FishGuys Yes you CAN keep Betta girls together as long as the tank is big enough at least 20 gallons for every 6-8 betta girls You pick put the female for the breeding and have her and your male in a 3rdtank For spawning after the eggs are laid put her back Then whrn the eggs hatch Put the male back on his tank and take care of the babies in the 3rd spawning tank ok ? Heaters everywhere Watch Dexters world videos re betta fish spawning

That would be AWESOME!

There is no clear time on how long a tank cycles. 11 days, 2 months, it's never guaranteed. Buying a water test kit is the easiest way to track how your bacteria colony is doing. Once ammonia and nitrites are at 0 and remain that way, that is when you are ready to slowly add in your stock of fish.

kyle headlee I agree! Stay tuned!

Unfortunately, a 10 gallon is way too small if you want a big pleco. A 10-gallon tank is fine if you want a betta fish and a couple of snails, but plecos get large very quickly, as it grows, you will need at least a 150-gallon tank. I'm not sure what pleco you are talking about, but you can definitely not get any big ones. If you are to get a pleco at all, get a clown pleco. Also, it would probably be better to get a more wide tank. Hope that helped!

@@reina8942 I got a smaller one. Unfortunately the petsmart employee was giving me false info and said it would be okay. He is still just a baby rn, about 2 inches. So would it be okay for now?

@@reina8942 Ill give him away when he gets too pig

CJ Roy Yeah, it would be okay for now. But what type of pleco is he?

@@reina8942 An Orinoco sailfin

Thanks so much!

Toni Mod Forsure!! Many betta and saltwater videos coming soon!! Thank you for the support!!

Reptile channel And blogging two upgrading hers next!

Pet Craz The other one getting an upgrade too! Stay tuned!

Will do! And that’s great!

Jessica Noggle Bettas are awesome!!

That’s why we research before blindly getting a pet.

I love the idea!!

Until the male decides to attack them. :I

AwesomeGamer102 x3 the small fish like those are normally to fast for the betta

Mollies are okay but something with big colourful fins like male guppies, the betta is certain to attack.

Sage Dramberger Thank you so much for the support! Upgrading the female this week too!👍🏻

Thank you so much! You dont understand how much that means to us!

No prob man.
