#4 Volcano Filter Betta Aquarium (Peace is an Option) YES filter, NO CO2, NO Ferts 7.6 Gallon Tank
Вставка
- Опубліковано 5 жов 2024
- Dante is a plakat betta. He hasn’t eaten any of the tank mates these days. Well, at least that I know of. They say don’t hate the Dante, hate the game. There are definitely shrimp living under the volcano and they are breeding. I realized that most of them come out after the tank light goes out. I guess after Dante goes to bed. I haven’t seen any cherries, though. When the light is on, only ones brave enough to come out are the Amano shrimp. They are little gangsters themselves and can hold their own against Dante.
The female Amano you see in the video has actually been pregnant several times. She lets go of the larvae, and all of them get eaten by Dante, then she’ll carry eggs again in a few days. There are two Amano males that I can see. I don’t know which one is the baby’s father - Maury reference :) The larvae requires salt water to develop, so there’s no chance of them surviving in this tank.
There are hundreds of snails in this tank. They hitchhiked with one of the floating plants and now they have multiplied uncontrollably. Some actually live on the volcano, and pretty much everywhere else. I find empty shells sometimes on the lid of the tank. I might do a snail trap thingy, but maybe the population will stabilized based on the food available. I’m just gonna see what happens.

(*The most important part is the salinity and temperature. At room temperature, it might take 48 hours to hatch. At Higher the temps, they might hatch in less than 24 hours.)
(*For salinity, I’m going by the 1 table spoon per liter rule. However, depending on the salt, you might want to try up to 2 table spoons.)
Brine shrimp eggs: amzn.to/2L0Y4rG
100% deep sea salt amzn.to/2YVeiFd
(I use deep sea salt, but I think other salts will work, too. Something like aquarium salt.)

Neodymium Magnet: amzn.to/2QkFABu
Cherry shrimp amzn.to/2FsObxB
Amano shrimp: amzn.to/2U9pw9c
The plants in this tank now:
Micro sword amzn.to/301YQHl - Still hanging on.
Pygmy chain sword amzn.to/2HWhfyS - It stayed very short and small and sent out lots of runners.
Glosso amzn.to/2LFAVbn - They have sent out lots runners. It’s staying very small and low to the ground.
Java moss amzn.to/2N4uQsr - The ones on the rock are doing well. The ones below the water surface are also doing well
Staurogyne repens amzn.to/39SlurG - It’s doing pretty well. It is a slow grower it seems.
Giant Duckweed amzn.to/2xV2iuR - It grows very fast in this tank.
This is a Walstad Method tank. Check out her book in the link below if interested. The book I read to make this aquarium:

I love how everyone just saw one of these random videos and decided they wanted to keep coming back
The Gourami tank drama is what hooked me
... I actually look up nano tanks on my free time and he was recommended to me 2+ years ago. 😂😂🤷♀️ love tanks with live plants ♡ it's a shame people arent more into these videos
Literally this
So true.
I was looking up sweet potatoes for some other reason and ended up being hooked
"The wild shrimplets ventured out from beneath the volcano"
Me: No younglings! It's too dangerous!
A Dante lurks lol
After so many times hiding from the monster, beneath the volcano, some brave adventurer ventured into the wilderness that was chanted by the ancient, who had to flee the darkest threat : a red demon who answered the name of Dante. Will the young adventurer survives and be the bravest of them all ? Or just another fool, added to the gargantuan menu of the crimson beast ?
It’s Dangerous To Go Alone! Take This!
"Thank you so much for watching."
No...
Thank you so much for your work! This is so soothing.
it's so beautiful...the way it's shot & edited.
The peace created by this aquarium is the only thing holding society together right now
Ah yes, I can relax for a couple of minutes : ) all my worries go away while watching thess
The only problem is that it ends too fast:(
For some reason,sometimes my anxiety is gone for a couple of minutes when I'm watching his videos.
The Secret FBI Agent even FBI agents find relaxation in these 😩
Tell me about it. I feel all the tension dissolve from my body when I turn one of these vids on.
Me too 😊
Seeing a therapist: expensive, scary
Watching dante get fed and schrimplets: easy, free, lovely
and u don’t have to get out of bed 😎
6 minute therapy session
sad but true
bro, i am binge watching them
hell yeah xD
Learn from my mistakes and don't watch all of them in one sitting there's no other channel like this one 💯
Accurate
"The nerite brought the ring down" just sounds so much like a police procedural or something XD
Sci-Fi apocalypse film.
Lololololol 🤣🤣😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
its a heavy boi
It was absolute chaos! Shimp shedding and snails eating it followed by the ring being brought down! Madness, glad them were able to restore the peace
I'm really happy that Dante has grown to not murder his tank companions ;~;
He's planning something.
No, Zuko had his character ark
Sadly he died
but what about the cherry srhimp u_u
He ate the smol snails
This poor Armano female is pregnant every episode
Don't be like that one guy who disliked this video.
This is art.
Haters gonna hate
Very much true
@@monkeygraborange he is not a hater he is stupid
You really have to be a monster to dislike these videos
There are actually valid points that could be made against keeping an aquarium this way because of, the stocking choices and the small size of the tank.
Not that I dont like the videos (I dont give them dislikes), I just wanted to point out that there are different perspectives.
Dante is one good looking betta. His coloring is wonderful, like a painting.
Whoa I didn’t know Amanos ate bloodworms, much less they could be handfed like that
Wocyppah they’re too voracious for it not to be possible I guess
I swear they eat anything. I have a big amano momma who comes to the top of the tank to beg food with all my embers. I either give her a flake or pull out a shrimp pellet.
Amanos can be food hogs
Amanos go for weak shrimps if hungry. They'll even hunt them, although I have only seen this once in a very young tank. An amano going for the face of a still twitching cherry is pretty gruesome.
I've had to relocate my amanos because they went after newly added Mosquito Rasbora. Saw the shrimp with a fish in its arms. Not cool.
*my favorite thing about this video, is it will randomly be in my recommended for the next 10 years, and I won’t question it at all!* 😂😂😂
it looks kinda cute when the amanos grab their worm and swim away ^^
I can hear them maniacally giggling as they hurry off
@@getouthope * worm detected * * grabs * hehehe i gotz worm
Ahem sorry
The female Amano looked greedy af
"Aww yissss thank you papa" and they scurry away.
@@Burlesqueify "The sacred tweezer has blessed us!! All hail the generous tweezers!"
How can you watch this video and think, "I'm going to dislike this". I don't even dislike videos I dislike!
Dante just loves the attention you're giving him

Shrimp: "become red"
Dante: so you have chosen death
ROFL HAHAAHAH
Hi, patreons and UA-cam members. Sorry, this video doesn’t have a proper title, thumbnail, and description yet. I ran out of time. I’ll have them tomorrow when I launch it for the public. It is the final video, though.
If you comment here, it’ll disappear when I go public with this video. It’s just way youtube works. If I change the video from private or unlisted to public, the comment section gets reset. At least that’s what I know happens. If you know otherwise, please tell me.
Also, I want to once again thank you all. It’s 2020, and it kinda hit me hard. There are other news that I gotta tell ya regarding Pollock and Curry, but I haven’t found the way to do it, yet.
In the meantime, tell me if there’s anything you want me to do for you guys.
Also, I’m gonna start another tank. I’m gathering up supplies, but I’m kinda stuck at one part. It’ll probably be another month until I show the final setup.
The comments haven't been deleted?
Hello
Hi, where do you get such masterpiece music?
This comment was meant for the patreons and youtube members. This video was unlisted for 24 hours. I was pretty sure if I go public with an unlisted video, the comment section gets deleted. I guess youtube changed that recently.
You asked one day about using your voice in your videos honestly I advice you not to do it because it will take the calmness and the peace in the videos. I watch your videos and all my worries go away along with your music and watching nertie.
0:39 First time ever we see someone else helping him with the water change!
That's just him. He has three hands.
Good eye!
It was his cat
he's using his leg to pour the water, obviously
i was wondering if someone was going to comment on it!!
Everyone: Peace was never an option-
Foo: Not so!
"Hold my Amano"
“hold my duckweed infestations”
Rest in peace, dante. It was a joy watching his personality and how he reacts to things around him. Thank you for sharing these precious moments with us. I watch your video repeatedly when i feel stressed. There are no words to describe the feelings your videos give to me. I aspire to be a caring pet keeper like you. I have 2 siamese 🐱 and 2 small aquariums 😊
Same! These videos are helping with my anxiety alot! Also I have 3 aquariums too. I used to have a betta but he died :(
Thank you for starting my morning like this. My betta passed away recently.
mangomak same over here:( my snails ate him after he died sp he just disappeared
Oh dear... I'm sorry for the loss ;-;
Rip 🙇
F
Swim in peace little guys
rest in peace dante :(
He’s not dead actually
@@shuwap Where is he now ?
@@yophanis @Shuwap He is dead unfortunately, it was announced on the video "part of the hobby" :'(
rip :(
Oh 😨
I'm a simple person.
I see our familiar betta aquarium I click.
Edit: is "our" that weird in this case? English is not my first language and I guess it sounded natural to me
Do you speak French?
*_Communism intensifies_*
It's not weird. It's just that many people relate it to the communist meme.
Our as in the community’s 💚
yer doin great yo! Don’t worry
This is such a mind blind-blowing scene of ordinary poetry in a tiny ecosystem... so peaceful and heart-warming !
I save up all my stress for these videos so it all melts away as I watch 😂❤️
Accurate
Imagine how beautiful it must be to have some free hours to watch your beautiful creatures living their lives in your water tank, with some peaceful music in the background. Awesome 😍
Remember guys. This was recorded on smartphone camera.
😧
What?!
No way!! What type of smartphone?
"This video was shot with: Camera: LG V10 , then LG V50" in the descriptions, for anyone wondering
I used to watch these on the bus commute to work and nearby riders would lean over and watch with me. Watching them now makes me feel nostalgia for the mundane commute. Thank you for making me feel a sense of normal.
4:39 For real, that looks like the happiest creature to ever receive a gift.
Fantastic underwater footage once again!
"The nerite brought the ring down" is so unintentionally foreboding and I think you just gave me a burst of inspiration for a scifi writing session
it's always a good day when you see this on your notifications
I absolutelly agree
This has got to be the happiest group of fish and crustaceans kept as pets. Stunning. Love how everything is reused and sustained.
I finished part 3 five minutes ago and was craving for more and you post this. A coïncidence but a welcome one.
A surprise, to be sure, but a welcome one
I’m genuinely curious to why anyone would dislike these videos, they are actual masterpieces
Thank you so much for making these videos, they help to ease this anxiety ridden mind for at least a little while.
I saw the notification this morning and saved the video to watch until lunch when I could sit down, focus, and enjoy it. My kids heard the music and when I told them it was fishtank music they came running over. The four of us shared the phone to watch. Thank you for creating such amazing content, it is truly a treat. No need to apologize for how long the process takes, we are grateful and will appreciate them when they come. God bless you.
It’s been a real journey watching you make this volcano tank. Glad the betta’s not killing everything anymore lol
My life right now is very busy. Whenever I retire, I have decided this would be a worthwhile hobby to spend my money and time on. Your tanks are beautiful and soothing to my mind. Thank you for sharing
The snails in your tank: 👁 👄 👁
I watch your videos during my breaks at work. Working in a fast paced fast food restaurant can be hectic but these vids calm me down. Thank you for keeping me sane and please keep posting, your content is great and it’s nice to see someone passionate about something they care for.
This is the channel that worth the wait, definitely my stress reliever
The photobomb from Dante was adorable and hilarious 😂😍
I love that he uses the same music in all his videos.
What song is it ? That plays through out the videos. I know it’s a well known classical song.. just trying to put my thumb on it
@@philwojo1735 it's called gymnopedie 1
Honestly, Dante is such a sassy queen, and I had no idea how much I needed this series. So thank you, for keeping me here
I’ve never seen anyone feed an Amano like that. I feel like I am way to hyped about watching aquarium videos.
I love everything about your videos. The fish, the shrimp, plants, music, editing-everything. They’re calming and relaxing. It’s like you enter THEIR world for a moment and leave your chaotic life behind. Blissful.
Love the video Foo! Keep up the awesome work. I like the mini updates you’ve been doing, even if it’s like ~30seconds, it makes waiting for new full videos much more engaging and fun
You need to do longer vids where people could just relax and fall asleep watching your tank. Some kind of fish meditation or something? Super peaceful watching these. Love it!!
The video quality of LG V50😍
does it made with V50??
이상윤 he recently posted that he got a new phone because his old one pooped out, should still be posted on UA-cam
Hi there! I just want to tell you that your videos have always helped me to relax and clear my mind off things...I have difficulties sleeping, and when I do sleep...I’m a light sleeper. Truly a bad combo. But after a random recommendation by UA-cam, I have found that your videos helped me a lot in easing me to sleep, no matter what time of day it is😊 Thank you so much for each one of your wonderful videos.
You're the reason I fell in love with classical music.
My cat, Principessa, loved watching Dante so much. Thank you for us both :)
PEACE WAS AN OPTION
Yes, it always was
* puts knife away *
Yesterday i was having trouble falling asleep, but I knew where I had to come to! Your videos are all so calming, and they have both of my favorite things; fishtanks and Gymnopédie 1, my favorite classical theme.
After two or three videos, I finally got to rest. Keep doing what you love, cuz we love it. Cheers
"She lets go of the larvae, and all of them get eaten by Dante"
well yeah Dante hasn't murdered the tank mates yet, but he definitely murders the potential tank mates
Good to see Dante behaving for once, and glad to read the Cherries are (probably) still living.. :)
Thank you so much for continuing to these videos. It's been cool to see the habitat develop and grow over time.
I've been watching this channel for some time now and I have to ask: What are those rings for anyway? Every upkeep session, the weed has filled the inside of the rings completely :D Isn't there some surface plant that is a little easier to control?
not sure if this is the only answer, but it helps light penetrate to the plants carpeting the bottom of the tank.
Just wanted to thank you for all the effort you put into these videos and uploading them. Your channel was recommended to me one day and I don’t even know why since I never looked up fish stuff before nor did I have any specific interest in aquariums, but I’m glad I watched it and now I love and sincerely enjoy watching your videos... The songs, the editing, the things you show, the subtitles you add... They’re all great.
Btw, I don’t mind waiting for a long time for more of your videos. I just appreciate them ❤️
Thank goodness, I could use a dose of peace.
Thank you so much for your videos. My 4 yr old loves them. Helps her calm down before bed and fall asleep.
Lovely stuff, just what the doctor ordered
I really thought these videos would be boring but there actually so peaceful and calming, and these videos get me really curious about the wildlife and what will happen next
my brain: This video is so wholesome and relaxing. It really calms me down...
also my brain: *_S H R I M P E A T S H R I M P_*
The skill and patience you have is mesmerizing. Thanks for sharing your talent and beautiful creation with us!
Time to eat cereal and relax
The Master has graced us with more of his peerless work. I bow in gratitude, humbled yet uplifted.
Might be worth getting a YoYo Loach to control your snail population, they shouldn't bother your nirite... but maybe move it out to another tank to be safe.
the tank is too small for em
even temporarily
@@tanujchaudhuri799 Good point, i didn't even take note of it being a 7 gallon! would have to do it the old school way :)
I cant tell you how much your vids have helped my anxiety. I feel so safe when I watch them. I know that may sound a bit dramatic but it really means a lot to me. 💙💙💙
I would make this, but I have no idea how to find a tank like that.
I think this one was custom built for the series
@@TalkingPickles Well darn.
You can see in the week one how to build this tank.
My guy check Craigslist or whatever equivalent you have. People give away tanks or sell em cheap! My buddy got a 20 gallon high for like 10 dollars
The tetras are a lovely addition to the tank. They stand out from the greenery and compliment Dante
I love forgetting about my worries and just watching this. It's so scenic
6 minutes feel like 1 hour when watching these videos... so relaxing.
i love every clean , every feeding , just watching them is tranquil . it’s the only way i can sleep 😭❤️
Whenever I'm having a bad day, I watch your videos and everything gets better!Thank you for existing, dear friend
It's so cute the way the shrimp get all excited about the blood worms and run off to eat them in private.
I think I just found the greatest channel ever. So relaxing, after work watching these videos,... and just relaxing.
I still get excited for these videos every time a new one gets uploaded. Theyre so soothing
I love reading all the commentary you post in the description box. I always watch the video 1st, the watch it a 2nd time while the music plays and read what you have typed. As always, thank you for such Beautiful videos!!!
One moment I'm recommending this channel to friends who want to relax.. then all of a sudden, I'm breaking down the drama in each tank, causing everyone anxiety..
I always enjoy the music I usually just find my self making up lyrics while closing my eyes in another world and occasionally opening my eyes to a dazzling garden being lovingly taken care of and shown off to lover's of these little worlds you make
I have never been so satisfied just by watching water creatures.
These videos are as good as talk therapy, if not better. I always leave happier than I came. Thank you, dude.
dante is so beautiful/ and with such vivid bright colors, you know hes happy and healthy
“There is a place far above the surface where Dante can not reach us” -cherry shrimp elder
I love how even your shrimp arent jumpy when feeding them!😍😭
I’m so glad UA-cam randomly recommended me one of your videos a while back. Now I can’t get enough! I’ve been having so much anxiety lately and keep getting stuck in the past and your videos always bring me hope and peace of mind for a few minutes. Thank you and great work/scripts!
that first song that played really knocked me out i didnt think i could get so tired so quick
Dante is such a little diva! I love him so much.
Agreed! That photobomb in the beginning was absolutely precious. 😆
I usually put these videos on to fall asleep to but if I don’t force myself to stop paying attention and just listen to the music I’ll stay up an extra 2 hrs just watching all his videos bc I love it sm haha
Your videos are truly a thing that I look forward to. Pure bliss. Please please please never stop !
Foo you rock 🙂 It's clear that you love what you do, and you soothe us all with that passion. I make tea every time you post and just chill out 😊
Love the way Amano carries the work back to its lair. So cute
It's encouraging to see the balance this tank has achieved. Also, appreciated seeing you had help with the water change :D. I am anxious to see the snail development. I started my first tank and had a bladder snail infestation before I had a chance to get any livestock. It was out of control. I cleaned it out and am waiting to start over.
An assassin snail will do the trick. I have one that keeps a Malaysian trumpet snail population in line in a 15g.
Assassins will eventually go after the nerite. Traps work well for removing excess bladder snails.
I love that Dante are a snail then spit it back out. It’s a big mood.
It was so cool how Dante’s colors changed throughout the series
I've watched like 4 of these videos now and I still have no idea why I like them.
I sit and wait each month for one of these mystical masterpieces to be released, I see one and already start to feel calm, I put on headphones and turn the volume up to full and watch the video and feel an unmatched feeling of euphoria, these videos give me an overwhelming sense of peace, they sooth my soul and make me feel like a new man. Although I cannot afford to become a patron I assure you that your content is loved and cherished. Thank you for these beautiful snippets of heaven.
Your videos are so relaxing, like a nature documentary with beautiful music. I appreciate the time it takes to do this for us and am letting all ads run. Thank you for very interesting content.
