I hid my Aquashella dancing until the very end! :D This is my first time doing a Patrons list at the end, thanks guys! Although I just realized something. I'm not sure how to thank all my great past Patrons. If you guys are seeing this, I appreciate you! So what do you think?! Was I FOOLISH or was this totally awesome.
Hi diddle dee dee 🎼 In Aquashella like to be 🎶 But unfortunately I can't... But I will not go to a salty face and keep singing! A Tank of water and a silver rocks 🎼 A Golden Betta with a diamond sparklers Hi diddle dee day An Aquashella life is gay It's great to be part of it An Aquashella like to be! 🎶
BIG- Thanks to all the Gentlemen who helped you out. So nice to see the kindness of others. You did great with your scape, intense competitors on both sides and you didn't panic! Good job. Wow, I would have stressed out. Excited to see you get into Shrimp & Rice fish! The Splashy Betta are beautiful. Hope you have luck breeding your pair.💞
Taylor, I actually prefer the wood you have over the one you wanted more. And I do hope you will try for the giant bettas again. At some point, hopefully, the genetics will be stronger and they will be as hardy to breed as the standards. Best of luck to all your endeavors!
Nice to see the Aquarium Coop and friends helping out! Love your dancing style. Reminds me of Sam Rockwell. Can't wait to see the next aquarium project.
Hey Taylor, all your videos are awesome. You show passion in what you love. But this video is by far my favorite, because you used every opportunity to bring that driftwood home with you. Your celebration dance at the end was priceless. Love from New York.
So awesome I got to meet you there finally! Have to say thank you for getting my little tank into the video as well. Was a very late night planting that one haha.
Omg Taylor it's a good thing you skipped the Giant Copper 5:25 because I believe I took him home when Bob's Tropicals and Oh My Betta came back to California 😱😂
That is true driftwood love. 😍 The ghost wood is really striking, can't wait to see what you do with it. The bettas look beautiful too and I hope they make beautiful babies for you.
I'm so excited to see the progress on your Fangorn Forest tank! I made a Tolkien-inspired aquascape too! Mine is inspired by The Hobbit. It's a 14g rimless and it has Bag End, and a path leading to the Lonely Mountain (made out of Frodo stone, of course!) with gold-colored gravel and colored glass beads for the treasure underneath. It houses my red twin tail halfmoon betta, Ziggy Stardust, some Neocaridina shrimp, Endler's livebearers, and of course white wizard snails!
Taylor it was really great to meet you at both the VIP gathering the night before the main event and then at Aquashella (Dallas) sorry we couldn't provide cooler temps. I'm glad everything made it safely home. I had to do everything to not buy all the things either. I hope to see you next year at Aquashella Dallas again.
What an amazing piece of driftwood, totally worth the effort of getting it home! Your slow realisation of how much of a pain it was going to be really reminded me of the time I decided to bring an aquarium back with me from Canada to Australia... in carry on. The things we do for fish!
Love it! I knew you would wind up wit more Bettas LOL. I know where those Medakas ended up too! I guessed it when I saw your Pond Video hahahahahahaha. Thanks for sharing
I love seeing these miss the Betta Shows I used to go to but honestly can't keep fish anymore my hearts not in it I hate fish dying on me after 1 year or so can't do it anymore but I still use tanks as my figure holders
Very awesome time you had! Looked like so much fun🙂👍🏻 Nice driftwood and fish you got there! Looking forward to the scape in your big tank😍 thanks very much! -Jeff.
Okay, #1 THANK YOU for the Aquashella footage, #2 you did an excellent job of storytelling and major #3 super solid edit. I’m impressed. Great work! And you mixed in a little Zenzo for good measure 😁
Oh so excited to see that wood in the forest scene! As soon as I saw it I thought of the forest in LOTR and that ghost wood is amazing! Your competition tank was great too! Also those Galaxy Bettas 😱🤯🥰😍🙌
It'll be so cool if Taylor gets a green screen eventually for her background so that she can like have her fish swimming in the background or something that would be so awesome. For those sections where she's standing in front of the white wall.
Hopefully you flew Southwest-where two bags fly free! Lol! I can’t wait for Fangorn! And those giant bettas! Unfortunately I got 🦠 during Aquashella, or I would’ve been there!
I'm so bummed out I didn't get to say "Hi" to you this time. I got all the way to Dallas but it turn around the guy I was driving with had the sickness so I thought I had to drive home and I'm glad I did by the time I got back I had it. But I have a question to ask you the next time I get the opportunity to talk to you!!
I was taken by the many giant male Plakats that come as Koi, Copper, etc. It's so cool to see so many Gorgeous Giant males. I love those Galaxies, you got at Aquashella. Best of luck with your fish, aquariums and wood. 😁😁
I turned on your channel bell so I dont miss you starting on the new tank 😁 I definitely voted for the lotr theme tank and I cant wait to see how it turns out!
Hey thanks Mati! I was hoping for it to be my NEXT video but it's taking me longer than I thought to get a nice composition. It might be the next week instead :P
@@SimplyBetta it sure is 🙂 I try to see it as an investment for the future when I edit - more so than the result I get out of it - because one year later I can probably do it 30x faster 😅🤞
I just came home Monday from Chicago...I went to the same wood vendor, and came home with 10 good sized pieces....was able to fit them all in my suitcase, bought two tanks, and won a jellyfish art nano tank!!...luckily, my LFS guy from Michigan was there and took my stuff home, while I took the train home 🙃
Looking forward to see what you make for a shrimp tank, they're actually what got me into the hobby. 😊 (Guess my profile picture kind of proves it... 🤭)
@@SimplyBetta no one's going to judge you for spending too much everyone here would do it too. It's just helpful to know for our own adventures into the wild what something like this will set us back
I understand your stuggles. Many years ago I found a HUGE piece of drift wood at the river. Of course we were in my Camry, not the truck. I ended up folding the back seats down and fit the smelly piece of wood from the end of my trunk all the way to where my gearshift was. Did I regret it? No. My Iguana named Godzilla loved it. I loved the dancing!
The do it when they get there! The vendors arrive a day early to set up their booths and spaces. The really big booths with lots of scapes will have a team of people working on them :P
@@SimplyBetta and I love your videos I’m also betta crazy I’m up to 12! 2 females 3 male giants and 7 more males. I plan to breed just to have more betta 😂😂
ok, so I have been wondering. Did I spark the idea of the LotR tank? I remember you saying "ooohhh" when i mentioned trying to find an Eye of Sauron to put on the top of your spooky rock because it looked like Mt Doom.
You sparked the idea of a Barad-dur tank! :D This one is different, it's Fangorn Forest, which has been an idea of mine since I tore down my Bag End tank. Sigh, I miss that one.
I'm going to be closing down my tanks in the near future for a couple of reasons... 1. I want to reorganise the garage. I want to get a wood lathe and do some woodworking and I need to move the tanks around. 2. I want to make some proper stands for my tanks and I need to make the space available (see point 1). 3. My mum suffers from Alzheimers and has lung cancer... and she doesn't have long left. So, I can't spend as much time caring for the tanks as I should. Plus when my mum passes, I need to move house. So, having the empty tanks is going to make things easier for me.
This video deserves a Thumbs up. Reason_ Betta and you being dummy. Not being rude, speaking the truth you creating stuff without stressing much on the Quality of the content. (In short For Being ORIGNAL who you are, i really like that) Good luck for the Lord of the Rings Tank in advance, Keep up the good work. Love from India 😘😘 (Edit- i think i should subscribe to this channel.)
Glad that the wood made it home with you. Happy to help too!
I hid my Aquashella dancing until the very end! :D
This is my first time doing a Patrons list at the end, thanks guys! Although I just realized something. I'm not sure how to thank all my great past Patrons. If you guys are seeing this, I appreciate you!

You got the moves lady ! 💃
I'm impressed , you can cut a rug !
I stayed for the SHUFFLE..........LOL :)

Hi diddle dee day

Pretty awesome actually 😎
BIG- Thanks to all the Gentlemen who helped you out. So nice to see the kindness of others.
You did great with your scape, intense competitors on both sides and you didn't panic! Good job. Wow, I would have stressed out.
Excited to see you get into Shrimp & Rice fish!
The Splashy Betta are beautiful. Hope you have luck breeding your pair.💞
If you ever want to try our betta stop by our online store at Splashyfishstore.com
Taylor, I actually prefer the wood you have over the one you wanted more. And I do hope you will try for the giant bettas again. At some point, hopefully, the genetics will be stronger and they will be as hardy to breed as the standards. Best of luck to all your endeavors!
I had a huge female Betta that I named Big Bertha.
She was the largest, thickest and highest bodied(?) Betta I had ever seen.
I can't wait to see the Fangorn Forest aquascape, Taylor! Hope you are enjoying the 'Rings of Power' series. Awesome dancing by the way!
Nice to see the Aquarium Coop and friends helping out! Love your dancing style. Reminds me of Sam Rockwell. Can't wait to see the next aquarium project.
Omg i swear your energy matches mine and even your thought process 😂😂 nice to know im not alone out here😅 "LOOK, JUST LOOK, _don't touch_ " 😂
Holy cow! you can move! that wood lolololol!!!! Can't wait for the build!
lol thank you!
Really showing the Co-Op part of Aquarium Co-Op. Seem like good folk. Beautiful Wood.
Hey Taylor, all your videos are awesome. You show passion in what you love. But this video is by far my favorite, because you used every opportunity to bring that driftwood home with you. Your celebration dance at the end was priceless. Love from New York.

Haha, that's good!! I hope he's doing well :)
Glad to see the shuffling tradition at Aquashella is still alive
I can't wait to see your new wood in the tank!
Thank you! It will be soon, I'm working on it now :)
That is true driftwood love. 😍 The ghost wood is really striking, can't wait to see what you do with it. The bettas look beautiful too and I hope they make beautiful babies for you.
Thanks so much 😊
It was so nice to see the community come to together to support you and make the giant box! haha :)
Your absolutely gorgeous. Love your channel. ❤️❤️🥰
The planted tanks were so beautiful. I’m building my first ADA 60H 30 now. I’m so excited.
Aww thank you, good luck with your new ADA tank! :)
Nice of Zenzo and Dean to use their superpowers to save you!
Right?!
OhMyGoodness, I can't wait to watch you scape that beautiful huge aquarium! So glad you shared some Aquashella with us. Thanks Taylor 🙂
Thank you, I'm working on it now! It's proving to be pretty tough!

Hah! How big was the tank?
That dancing at the end was a treat 🥰🥰🥲
Soo how is the cursed wood doing 😱
I hear it shuffling around in the crawl space at night
At the risk of sounding weird, your voice is like a warm hug ❤
I love the wood you ended up with, my first thought when I saw it was that it looked like an Ent.
Love it! I knew you would wind up wit more Bettas LOL. I know where those Medakas ended up too! I guessed it when I saw your Pond Video hahahahahahaha. Thanks for sharing
I tried so hard but in the end I couldn't resist! Thanks, @Dallas Aquascaping Guy :P
the dancing was my fav....
Mine too
It was so nice meeting you at Aquashella! You're the best, Taylor.
Aww, thanks for chatting with me!
I loved the whole video, but was taken way aback by how good you are at dancing lol
Thank you so much for a wonderful video :D we hope you enjoy and able to breed the pair.
Cool! Aquashella looks like it went great! ⭐️

Thank you, Jeff :)
Looking forward to seeing your Fangorn Forrest tank! I'm sure I will find it Entertaining.
I hope so! I'm working on it now :)
Okay, #1 THANK YOU for the Aquashella footage, #2 you did an excellent job of storytelling and major #3 super solid edit. I’m impressed. Great work! And you mixed in a little Zenzo for good measure 😁
Thanks for the kind words! Editing can take me days of work, so I'm really happy if someone notices :)
@@SimplyBetta absolutely! I hear you - it’s all I do everyday! 😁
Dang Taylor, that is some fancy footwork ya got going there!!
haha, thanks!
Lord of the Rings tank!? I love it! Can't wait to see how it come out.
It's next! I has hoping for it to be a video for next Tues but it is taking me longer than I thought
Oh so excited to see that wood in the forest scene! As soon as I saw it I thought of the forest in LOTR and that ghost wood is amazing!
Your competition tank was great too!
Also those Galaxy Bettas 😱🤯🥰😍🙌
Thank you! I'm working on the Fangorn Forest tank now :P
It'll be so cool if Taylor gets a green screen eventually for her background so that she can like have her fish swimming in the background or something that would be so awesome.

Axolotls are adorable. I have a golden axolotl named Axl after Axl Rose. He’s hilarious and greets me every time I come up to his tank.
They are so dang cute, I love them!
I'm so bummed out I didn't get to say "Hi" to you this time. I got all the way to Dallas but it turn around the guy I was driving with had the sickness so I thought I had to drive home and I'm glad I did by the time I got back I had it.

Taylor Gabalor..nice work!!
Loved meeting you at Aquashella Dallas (WTF Where’s The Fish T-shirt ;)! Genifer
Can you do a video explaining everything about Cycling and PH and whatnot? Nobody makes like detailed videos about it
Loved the video. Can't wait for your video of you aquascaping. And for you to make a tank for schrimps🥰
Coming soon! :D
These conventions look so fun!! I hope I can go to one some day, would be so cool to meet you! :)
Can't wait to see how you aquascape the new large tank!
I'm working on it now! It's hard! :D
I was taken by the many giant male Plakats that come as Koi, Copper, etc. It's so cool to see so many Gorgeous Giant males. I love those Galaxies, you got at Aquashella. Best of luck with your fish, aquariums and wood. 😁😁

Little Taylor has a weakness for big wood. You've done it again Taylor ;)
looking forward to the upcoming videos :)
Haha, thank you!
Seriously cool! I am glad it’s not just me that does things like this😂
Awesome piece of wood very creative
Thank you, I really like it!
Was just about to ask about the Lotr Scape. I'm now excited 😁
I'm working on it now!
I can't wait to see what you do with that tank! I'm sure it will be really cool :)
I'm working on it now! :D
okayyyy! Didn't know you shuffled as well! Get it
I'm a little rusty but I do enjoy getting in the groove :P Thanks!
I was wondering, are you gonna be there for the Chicago aquashella? I’m in Michigan and I’m debating weather it’s worth the trip😭
Nope! I could only take the time off to go to one, this year. I really want to go, though, to tour some cool local fish rooms
Love it 8 minutes into your video and yes that is it excellent tree branch or root and it looks like I am Groot!!!!!!♡♡♡
SHUFFLE DANCE!
One of these days I want to make it to Aquashella, but if I did, I would totally do something like this also. Guaranteed.
Your creators aquascape looked great!
BUCKET!!! 🪣
Bucket!!
Good job girl!! And great dancer!!
In your LOTR tank you must name each fish after a movie character.
Aaw I was hoping the gargantuan box held a gargantuan whale-Betta 😐 Nice wood tho!
You are hilarious! Thanks for the fun video!
Another cool video -- can't wait to see the next scape!
This is very nicely edited 👌
I appreciate someone noticing! It's a lot of work, haha
@@SimplyBetta it sure is 🙂 I try to see it as an investment for the future when I edit - more so than the result I get out of it - because one year later I can probably do it 30x faster 😅🤞
Did you bring the fish on as carry ons? I have always wondered about this when I am out of state and wanting a fish 😅
I did! I didn't film it but I made a video about it last year :) ua-cam.com/video/pLAgs9PwA5c/v-deo.html
I just came home Monday from Chicago...I went to the same wood vendor, and came home with 10 good sized pieces....was able to fit them all in my suitcase, bought two tanks, and won a jellyfish art nano tank!!...luckily, my LFS guy from Michigan was there and took my stuff home, while I took the train home 🙃
Right on! Sounds like a good time :)
Lol glad u got help to make your giant box for your goodies to make that fangorn themed tank that's going to be dope
Thanks so much! I'm working on the Fangorn tank now, It's tough!
Is there a good video anyone can recommend on using plants that grow above the water with their roots in the tank?
Always excited to see a new video from you!
Yay, thank you!
Looking forward to see what you make for a shrimp tank, they're actually what got me into the hobby. 😊
(Guess my profile picture kind of proves it... 🤭)
when was this?? ive always wanted to go to an aqua con, anyone know if theres another this year?
Cool wood, can’t wait to see the scape
Coming soon! I'm working on it now :P
girl you gotta let us know what it cost! how much was wood how much to get it on plane? was it cheaper then shipping?
I.... I don't want to say. It was too much, haha, but probably would have been similar to ship it.
@@SimplyBetta no one's going to judge you for spending too much everyone here would do it too. It's just helpful to know for our own adventures into the wild what something like this will set us back

Did you have a spouse who was like OH NO NOT AGAIN?!
@@SimplyBetta lol My boyfriend at the time actually helped me get it in the car! Of course mine was free too and I didn't have to take it on a plane.
The town fish nerd, you continue to be RELATABLE 😭
hah!
I never thought that bettas could be trained .. wow
Isn't that cool? :P
I’m very curious how they actually set up at a convention like that - do they set up the aquascape before or do they do it when they get there?
The do it when they get there! The vendors arrive a day early to set up their booths and spaces. The really big booths with lots of scapes will have a team of people working on them :P
Gah!! I'm sad I can't make Chicago 😔.....next year for sure!!
Ughhhhh it’s not the evil driftwood….. but I guess I approve … lol
The evil driftwood has been thumping around EXTRA loud in the crawlspace lately. I think I'll retrieve it soon...
@@SimplyBetta yessssss!!!!
Love all your videos!! But this one is just awesome!!❤❤
Thank you so much!
We bought two at splashy fish! Two big gorgeous boys!
Yay! :D
Totally enjoyed this video:)
Thank you!!
I can tell you were fun in college!! And still fun 🤩
Hah!
@@SimplyBetta and I love your videos I’m also betta crazy I’m up to 12! 2 females 3 male giants and 7 more males. I plan to breed just to have more betta 😂😂
Damn, you can freakin' dance!!
I wish I could dance.
You just gotta start! You'll be bad at first but it gets better :P
youtube tutorials for the win!
I met you at aquashella!❤️
Your name should be Shuffle Betta, nice dance moves
Haha, thanks! I have another channel called @Tabby Tabaxi for that, I have not uploaded in a while though :P
You never disappoint with the videos 🤗👍😬
Hehe thank you
Well, glad to see that patreon money is getting used, and who wood think of a better use for it than that? It was some pretty cool wood
ok, so I have been wondering. Did I spark the idea of the LotR tank? I remember you saying "ooohhh" when i mentioned trying to find an Eye of Sauron to put on the top of your spooky rock because it looked like Mt Doom.
You sparked the idea of a Barad-dur tank! :D This one is different, it's Fangorn Forest, which has been an idea of mine since I tore down my Bag End tank. Sigh, I miss that one.
Great video!
Awesome I would love to go to aquashela some day
It's a pretty neat convention to see :)
I'm going to be closing down my tanks in the near future for a couple of reasons...
1. I want to reorganise the garage. I want to get a wood lathe and do some woodworking and I need to move the tanks around.
2. I want to make some proper stands for my tanks and I need to make the space available (see point 1).
3. My mum suffers from Alzheimers and has lung cancer... and she doesn't have long left. So, I can't spend as much time caring for the tanks as I should.
Plus when my mum passes, I need to move house. So, having the empty tanks is going to make things easier for me.
You have to do what you have to do! The hubby will always be there when you feel like you can return :)
@@SimplyBetta That it the truth... I'll still be watching your videos :D
Taylor! Do not eat the coral.
Actually...I suppose you COULD eat the coral...I wonder what polyps taste like? 🤔
Nice dance moves! 😎
Thanks! ;D
Fun video!!
This video deserves a Thumbs up. Reason_ Betta and you being dummy. Not being rude, speaking the truth you creating stuff without stressing much on the Quality of the content. (In short For Being ORIGNAL who you are, i really like that)

Sport equipment and maybe intruments are travling for free on a plane. Idk what kind of sport you could do with dry wood though lol.
Tie some strings on it and ACT like a cellist
I wish I could go to Aquashella, but I’m in Australia 😢
