Just a few helpful ideas from a fish keeper. Add a heater, tropical fish it about 79 degrees, and feed small amounts once a day. Over feeding can make your tanks dirty quicker. Fish will always act hungry even if you have just fed them 😂, and the water level should be up about 3/4 inch from the top. Gideon, your tank looks amazing, and fish keeping can be so enjoyable. Having an aquarium in your room is very healthy for you. The sound and peaceful scene is so relaxing. You could probably add a few more fish without much issue. You did a great job, and the tank looks awesome!
🐠💀🚫🐠💀🚫🐠💀🚫 No aquarium cycle 😮 (at least 21 days running with no fish added). No beneficial bacteria added 😮 (products: stress zyme, stability or quick start). An aquarium heater is needed during winter 🥶. I hope they survive🐠. New tank syndrome is deadly 💀
Yeah, they are going to lose fish unfortunately. The Petsmart employees should have told them to cycle the tank. You can tell the fish are in distress swimming around so fast.
I prefer family owned pet stores/aquariums. Their knowledge and care for animals are superior. They actually want you to succeed and continue in the hobby for many years.
The only fish that survive without a heater are Bettas and goldfish. Pleco MAY survive, but not sure. I would start with a five gallon tank, no smaller unless all you want is a betta. I had a fish tank for about 8 years. Can't do one here, no room for what I'd want to do. (20-50 gallons)
Yes!! This!! It should be ran and regulated for the fish he wants. THEN get the fish. A lot of people think that only salt water tanks need to be regulated like that, but fresh water fish need a lot too.
Add an air stone into the tank. Plus, watch adding too much food into the tank as it can be too much of a bio load for the fillter this can lead to an ammonia build up in the water, it can cause algae to grow. If you can also move it from in front of the window as that can also cause algae to grow.
Mama bell is one controlling women always trying to talk the adult kids out of stuff and talk them into things she wants it’s very apparent in this vlog poor kids
How much influence are you going to have on Izzy’s decision because mom sometimes you know how to say things to your kids that influence what you feel she should do.
My son had a Beta that lived 6 years. He had a 10 gallon tank. We moved in with my sister and he had him in a small tank and the cat went in and ate him. 😢
You need an aerator, you need a heater, and a thermometer. Feed twice a day, not every 2 hours. I'm surprised the woman at the store didn't say any of that.
Any tank can be a "glow tank" you just need a black light bulb. Also you don't want to over fill the tank with"accessories" because they can over pollute your tank.
You should only feed them twice a day. Fill tank all the way and clean filter every 30 days. Only feed them a pinch of food or nothing more they can eat in 3 minutes
Unfortunately, many fish die when you first start an aquarium. The chemicals coming out of all accessories make the water a bit strong. PH balance is very important, water should be at 78°
Chinese fighting fish is in their own tank you're a to put something in between the 2 thanks a black glass If you don't they sit fight with the glass fight each other on each other side the glass Sometimes
You need to research fish tanks before starting one. The water needs to be aged for a couple of weeks before you put any fish in the tank, or they will just die. Also, you have to start slowly and add fish very gradually. If you don't follow proper procedures, you will be setting yourselves up for a lot of frustration.
Half the advice given here is BS. Fish tanks should be cycled before introducing fish. A fish-in cycle is long, harduous and cruel to the fish if not done 100pc correctly.
Right? No aquarium cycle (at least 21 days running with no fish added). No beneficial bacteria added (stress zyme, stability or quick start). I hope they survive🐠. New tank syndrome is deadly 💀
You continuously favor your bio son. While always always making sure Izzy, Noah, Hailey and the other adopted kids KNOW, Gideion is your bio! lol! I just know, Izzy, Josh and Noah will become superstars! You just continue rubbing Gideion in everyone’s face! Lmfao!
It’s the truth. She uses the adopted kids to take care of her cringy weirdo bio son. Keep up! She also stole multiple tik Tok recipes, changed one ingredient and put it her cookbook. Heather is a liar! A scammer!!!!!!! Thinking her bio son is alll that! Lmfao! Heather will be in court soon!
@@susanjohnson6860 wake up! Watch! Heather doesn’t do anything that doesn’t benefit her, her poor husband and bio son! Why does she continually use Josh for views! Poor Josh wasn’t gonna walk or talk! She uses the adopted kids to take care of her, her poor husband and her cringe bio son! WATCH THE VIDEOS
@ You’re a weirdo! Why is it that her cringy bio son is ON EVERY vacation!? Why do the adopted kids she exploits working for her and her husband? Especially JOSH! Heather thinks baking cookies makes her this great mom? Lmao! Heather has stole multiple tik tok recipes changed one ingredient and called it her own! Heather does NOTHING! But, exploit and use JOSH, NOAH and IZZY
Maybe he asked if anybody wanted to ride along? It's not unusual or weird for adults to go shopping together even though they are obviously old enough to shop alone. A couple of days ago my 19 year old needed to run to the store for something and she asked me if I wanted to ride along. I said "sure." It didn't mean she wasn't old enough to do it by herself. It's very weird to me that you think it's weird.
@@Rebornagain101 I see comments like this on her videos. The funny thing is, the people who are complaining keep coming back and watching even though they keep complaining. That's really bizarre to me. Oh well. Even negative comments help support the channel. 😌
its nice to see other people my age not go into the college route right away (or at all) im so happy youre supportive of their decisions, ty
He did go
to college for a little while

That was fun, thanks for sharing
Oh so good seeing Izzy we have missed you !!
It looks great
You are a wonderful wife mom to God be the glory
It was so great seeing Izzy. I've missed her lots! Cool fish!
Beautiful fish. Good luck with them!❤
You have to cycle a fish tank before you add fish. That takes time. Aquariums are very high maintenance.
Yay Izzy!
Should always set up the tank and let it cycle before adding fish.

Thank you for your knowledge. I have been thinking of getting a aquarium.
So thanks!!!

Meijer has a pet area to buy fish? I thought just groceries. Sharp looking tank.
You need to get a fish tank heater. We made the mistake of not getting one and all of our fish died. Poor babies. 😢
Also keep the tank out of sun light.
The only fish that survive without a heater are Bettas and goldfish. Pleco MAY survive, but not sure.
I would start with a five gallon tank, no smaller unless all you want is a betta.
I had a fish tank for about 8 years. Can't do one here, no room for what I'd want to do. (20-50 gallons)
I think it's best to pick fish that doesn't require a heater. Bettas feel better and more active in heated tank.
Make sure you get everything for it 😊
Good luck ❤
Here in the UK. We have to let out tank get set up first before we add our fish. So the tank can be a good environment for those living in it
Yes!! This!! It should be ran and regulated for the fish he wants. THEN get the fish. A lot of people think that only salt water tanks need to be regulated like that, but fresh water fish need a lot too.
We missed you izzy ❤
Love the fish tank Gideon! ❤😊🐠
Awesome family ❤❤❤❤
Regular tank with black light. I had a 55 gallon, it rocked.
Very beautiful
It's so beautiful

Agreed! A fish tank in the sun, will turn green very quickly!
Izzy could do Escoffier online. My cousin just completed the dessert part and starting the savory part
Don't forget the bubbler, heater and filter
Izzy😂😂😂 hope she gets a Gerbil 😊
Very nice 👍
Love 🐠 🐟 fish I use to have a. Oscar. ✌️💜👍
You should feed fish just once a day either morning or night time and turn the lights off at night.
Expensive hobby need a heater too
Yes, if you've never had a fish, read up on their care first. Certain fish can't share the tank. Do not over feed!!
missed Izzy

In my experience Goldfish are the worse fish to take care of but black mollies are the best
And we had an algae eater in our tank too
Stay away from betas and Oscars too they fight too much
My son had a Beta that lived 6 years. He had a 10 gallon tank. We moved in with my sister and he had him in a small tank and the cat went in and ate him. 😢
I have 11 fish they are so relaxing.

Hi Izzy! Missed you! ❄️☃️
Water filter & heater needed.
Hello from Lexington ky
Any tank can be a "glow tank" you just need a black light bulb. Also you don't want to over fill the tank with"accessories" because they can over pollute your tank.
Nice
My sister is getting her daughter a hamster for Christmas. She’s 14 so hopefully she will take care of it. 😂😂
My grand daughter has a gerbil
Going pet fishing❤
You should only feed them twice a day. Fill tank all the way and clean filter every 30 days. Only feed them a pinch of food or nothing more they can eat in 3 minutes
you’re so sweet mama
UMM WHEN UR FISH SWIM AROUND FAST, SOMETIMES ISNG RIGHT! Just a FYI
Our Meijer no longer carries fish. You might need a heater for the fish tank
If the sun hits your aquarium it will create a lot of alguie
I didn't know there was such a thing as glowfish
What's the difference between the glow fish, and the not glow fish. Besides the glowing part?
Unfortunately, many fish die when you first start an aquarium. The chemicals coming out of all accessories make the water a bit strong. PH balance is very important, water should be at 78°
Rule of thumb 1 gallon per inch of fish.
Chinese fighting fish is in their own tank you're a to put something in between the 2 thanks a black glass If you don't they sit fight with the glass fight each other on each other side the glass Sometimes
One for him and 1 for Josh or 1 for his girlfriend You could have a snake or a lizard and the other tank
I don't know why, but I thought you were shopping for fish for dinner; not as a pet. 😂😂
Lol. I thought it was fishing supplies like fishing rod, hooks, and etc.
I thought the same when I first read the video title
Doubt they'd have salt water fish because it's too difficult to keep correct balance of salt in.
If he is going away for college, didn't he just gave you extra cleaning responsibility of that aquarium?
He not in college anymore
Since he left college to go home and start his life, he will be home to clean his own fish tank.
Gideon love the fish !!!🐟
Fish shopping with Gideon and Mama Bell, yes please.
get a heater
Where is he bringing that? In Florida or Michigan?
He is home now,decided to leave achool,not a good move,and is now trying to buy fish tank,really
He's not in college anymore

Gideon got a girlfriend now?
Looks like it. 😊

Couldn’t he go and buy a fish himself he’s old enough?

@ you aren’t controlling like mama bell though that’s the difference
