@@YoungRin-ms still, imagime someone buying a fish this tiny and the fish passing away because of that. You have been a lucky one, but we wont know if the same would have happened with this fish. Its just awful selling animals this small.
I want to cry every time I go to our pet stores because the bettas are losing their color and are absolutely pitiful looking. I wish I could save them all 😭
I want to make a point not to buy fish from stores that abuse their fish. This video was for learning and educational purchases only. Thank you for listening
Bella Thedoggo if you think Americans are bad about putting fish in small container wait until you see what the Chinese and Japanese do. There are entire neighborhoods in China that are wall to wall fish shops as far as the eye can see and the shops are full of fish in cups and bags and giant fish pack in little tiny tanks. They might have 10 arowana stuffed in a 5 gallon tank and there's a whole wall of them.
Aww that poor thing is so tiny!!! It shouldn’t even be sold at the store. This makes me so sad and angry at the same time. So happy you rescued it. I will send you good vibes, so the betta will do well.
I’m glad I’m finally finding people who care about more animals then just rodents, dogs, cats etc. All animals have emotion, and we should always remember that.
Aquarium coop, just started selling a brine shrimp hatchers, also no clog air stone, that will allow you to adjust the air bubbles for the baby Betta, good luck, stay safe...
Every time I go to the pet store for supplies: oops I bought another fish I guess I need another tank, so I'll also need more plants, new filter, heater, food... the cycle never ends
I rescued my baby betta at the onset of the pandemic- all the other ones were dead in those little cups- I just couldn’t leave him there- he’s now doing great and he is beautiful- I have 6 other bettas and I love them all but he has a special place in my heart - you are amazing with all that you do for your pets!
A how-to-rescue video would be AMAZING. The only bettas I’ve ever owned were remotely healthy, but I’ve always wanted to be able to help the sick ones. I’m looking forward to it! :D
A few months ago, I went to Petco to get a gourami since I had set up a tank (btw I am an experienced fish keeper) and I saw the baby bettas and felt so bad I got one instead, and she had tripled in size and is doing so good!! I hope you have the same luck!!
I have a baby mosquito fish (Fry Guy) and We have had it since it was born and we have had him for 6 months about and so based on how small he was compared to Fry Guy your baby betta is only a few weeks old
I rescued a betta fish he had swim bladder and fin rot I got him a 6 gallon tank a filter rocks (not pebbles that’s dangerous) and coral and he is now colorful and swimming amazingly :)
I got a betta 4 days ago. I could say that he was not happy at petco, since he was just lying down in the cup. I got him and put him in the tank then he swam around all over the place! Now he loves me.
I actually got my baby betta fish at a similar size. she was a little bigger but I decided to save her because a 5-year-old kid picked her up to buy her and as soon as the kid set her down I snatched her. I know for a fact a 5-year-old couldn't properly take care of a betta fish so small. I have had her since January now and she is enjoying her 5.5 gal tank.
Could you start doing tank reviews I just re organized my first betta tank that will actually keep a betta alive lol he had fin rot and is recovering can’t wait for your next vid :)
if you can’t find brine shrimp at all i guess you can use sea monkeys if your desperate. they are pretty overpriced but if you really need them you can get them at walmart. and thanks for saving it you did the right thing :)
You should maybe cover up the top because idk how old he is but if he is developing his labyrinth he needs a high humidity :3 maybe try frost daphnia/moina, this is very little so maybe he would eat it. Anyway, this is wonderful that you help this little baby :3
I am a betta keeper from Indonesia, you're actually doing great.. We usually didn't separate the betta from their breeding tank in that size, but I could say that they're actually hardy even though you're separate them early..
4:15 that platinum dragon betta was gorgeous!! That’s what I look for but my Petsmart only sells the sick ones. I have rescued a few but I really want to get one that looks like that ughhhh you’re so lucky
My guppies had babies, luckily I, a 12 year old kid, loves to save my money. I was able to buy all their needs. They were born at July 12 and are all still alive and healthy! (My family was a bit upset that I spent so much money on the fish..)
Selling fish like this in tiny cups would not be allowed in the UK, pleased we have laws that stop this kind of curtly to these fish. So why should it be allowed here. Well done for saving them.
do u have any tips on fin biting in bettas? I got mine as a rescue from a tiny bowl and he bites his fins even though his tank is clean and I change the decorations around every week
I rescued a baby betta and I kept her at pretty high temps. She was kept between 80 and 82F and she’s just over a year old now. I also used the hikari first bites
I did tia the other day . Went down to my local dollar store and I found 5 bettas that where so freaking beautiful found an amazing baby purple betta fish super rare and they where all close to death and I saved all of them now they are all healthy and each in there own 5-10 gallons
Can someone help me? I've had a balck orchid betta for two weeks and today I noticed his tail is ripped halfway and he's missing scales :(( I don't know what I'm doing wrong. He's in a three gallon tank with a safe filter and heater. There was a small tunnel in his tank that had a very little bit of plastic plants but I didnt think it would effect him but I took it out already so maybe it was that? Is he sick?
Great video! fortunately im from the UK so we dont have pet stores like this who keep bettas in small tubs like this, but i wish i could help out little baby bettas like you do! Xx
Quick Question, i had a fry along time ago that my breeder buddy gave me. And i fed it pellets, Obvi not whole pellets i sat down for like a half hour slicing the pellets with a small knife so that the pellets are small enough that the betta can swallow it without problem. So can that be a substitute for betta fry or nah?
I know your probably not going to see this but if you do please help! My betta fish is a grown male. I only have a 1 gallon tank. We’re getting a much bigger one really soon. I’ve had him since April and still haven’t cleaned the tank. I was waiting for my big brother to help me but he said he didn’t want to help me and I didn’t want to kill the fish. There’s this white fungus growing at the top of the tank. My betta is always flaring other then that he’s fine. How do I clean the tank? I’m so scared I’m going to hurt him. I know I should’ve know more about him before I got him but my brother said he would help me and he already had a fish. What do I do?
i got my betta 1 month ago when she was a baby, she’s currently in a 1 gallon fish bowl that is good for her bc she was so small but now she’s older and i keep wanting to buy a 5 gallon for her to decorate and get her some tank mates, when should i switch her and does anyone have tips?
Yesterday I got a Male opal betta fish and he's really happy! I'm watching your videos so I know how to take the best care of him possible! He's my first fish!
Well I know a lot of times they come and like science kits and stuff like that!🤣 also Thank you so much for replying I’m your biggest fan over the years you haveTaught me so much about all my favorite pets thank you so much!😁 also I make tick-tock’s about your UA-cam channel sometimes my tik tok is cheyenne_rose24! You just made my day Kayla!😁
YAsSSsssSS I’ve been waiting ALL DAY! This is SOOO kind of u! I’m so glad that you were always doing your best to save sea life! I love that you always make betta videos! I’m currently looking into Bettas. Can you make a video on how to care for a baby betta because I’m 11 and I really really want to get one. I Just want to do this right the first time.
Ella Campanelli btw breeding bettas is hard even for experienced betta keepers, plus you need to find homes for dozens of betta fish. so if you really want to breed them, I’d recommend waiting awhile until you’re older and more experienced.
It is awesome that you want to do the research before diving in! There are tons of videos out there, so my suggestion would be to compare at least three sources on each topic and not depend on just one source. I’m sure Planet Fishness would do an excellent beginner guide to baby bettas, but everyone does things a little different and you should find what works best for you and your future betta. Best of luck to you!
You can also use egg yolk in dechlorinated water to feed baby bettas! It's only good for a day though, but it'll work. For baby bettas I do three feedings a day, and I keep the water temp at 80-82 degrees and make sure water for changes is aged for a day or two
I bought 1 about that size at Petco. It was maybe a few days older but I was not able to get it brine shrimp. It did pick at crushed flake food but not enough. I did get it to eat bug bites which are like super tiny crumbles. Unfortunately she still passed away after only about 2 weeks because she was sick but due to her tiny size & how young she was I couldn't safely treat her with anything. She did show improvement before passing but she was only about 4 wks old & no way to see what was wrong other than swimming seemed like too much work for her & she always sat at the top of the fake plants at the surface of the water. I even had to lower the water to just over a quart to make it easier for her.
Good luck with your new baby! *LAUGHS at the turkey baster* I use a turkey baster to clean out my bettas' tanks. It works really well. What I do is fill up a plastic cup with the dirty water, give it to my plants, and then pour a cup of clean water in. I only take about an 1/8 to a 1/4 inch of water out & they've been doing fine. I have gravel in my tanks & I can get the baster right in there to clean the stuff that collects on the bottom between the gravel pieces. You can get them in the supermarket for a couple of bucks. I was hoping to find them in the dollar store, but they only carry them around Thanksgiving.
I can't believe they would sell a fish that is obviously to young to be sold 😕 this is soo irresponsible. Thank goodness you saw it first before someone else who didn't know what they were doing did
Try to feed it a boiled egg and just give it the egg yolk but make sure to mix it with water and then use an eye dropper to feed. I did that with my guppy fry but I used a different method but now I no longer have guppies cause they all died so i no longer do that.
My thing with “saving” fish is that you’re still purchasing it, therefore increasing demand. If there is demand for an animal, as good as it may feel to give said animal a good life, they’ll just replace it with another one. I feel like this is important for you to mention in these kinds of videos, because while you have a platform and can educate people on why buying fish from chain stores isn’t ethical, other people don’t, so when they “save” fish, they’re really just dooming another to the same fate.
I bought a baby beta from the store, I had a feeling I should buy her. We are putting her in a decent size cage, and the store told us to feed her blood worms then pellets every other day. Is that safe?
Watch SimplyBetta on youtube. She will show you how to feed baby Bettas. She also sells food such as brine shrimp lil worms on her website. Not sure how long the shipping is.
Maybe you could try a syringe (not the injection but the one to give liquid medication to kids. They have those for free at some pharmacies and you can change them often if they get dirty
PLEASE stop “rescuing” animals from chain pet stores! Stop buying from abusive situations! For every one you buy, they order two more and the cycle continues! It’s a sad thing to see, but STOP putting your money into those places!
elysian my point is that if people can be responsible and boycott the abuse chain pet stores put animals through, it wouldn’t be an issue. “Rescuing” one is just going to put more in that same bad situation.
That little betta fry was so tiny! I breed Betta fish and that little baby should not have even left his spawn tank away from siblings. Also for how small could have bought some microworms or vinegar eels, some kijiji (community sell page) could sell beginner cultures and could pick them up same day or next day, depending on the seller. Also random fun fact, wild bettas even captive bred will almost always hide. Captive bred bettas (Not wild) won't hide as much but they do love lots of live plants to feel safe and happy, plus provides some shade from the tank lights because betta fish are pretty sensitive to bright lights. You're videos are really good and the rescue fish videos are my favourite. Alssooooo..., 😂🤗 the straw lol awwwe. Hey! For being so small too, could use a pipette for the food.
hi! I really want to get a betta. would you please tell me what I should get? I am going to get a 5-gallon tank, but I don't know what else to get. you seem really educated about this stuff, and when I get older I want to help rescue fish :)
Hi! I just subscribed!! ive had my betta since November. I have a question if i buy spring water i won’t have to add the betta water cleaning drops?? (sorry i forgot what it’s called) but please lmk
This is a great video but it's not the best idea to save a fish from a abusive petstore because they will see that there are more sales so they will start to buy even more fish and abuse them and the cycle keeps repeating so the best thing to do is to boycott these type of stores.
PLEASE HELP!!!!! EMERGENCY!!!!!! My male betta fish when I first got him had, what looked like a white, pin head sized bump on him and now it's gotten noticeably worse. I messaged you on Instagram, but please please please help me 😢😭
I bought 2 albino corys who were the last ones in the tank and they had no fins they were obviously very scared cause they were hiding and they looked so sick. So I bought them and when I had the lady get them for me she said they'd only live a couple of days and asked me many times if I was sure I wanted them. Of course I wanted them because if they stayed there they would have died. I've had them for a couple of months now they're double the size and have all their fins again. They're enjoying life with my 2 balloon Molly's and will soon have a 3rd because I bought a pregnant molly. I've also thought about getting 2 more Cory's but I have a male and female so I think I'm going to leave them and see if they do have babies. Since I had to raise a balloon molly from newborn to about a month old (hes doing amazing and is going in soon) I'm quite confident in my ability to keep the little babies safe.
Kayla I need your help. I recently got a galaxy koi betta named Ozai. I have a 3.7 gallon tank. I asked my parents if I could get a 10 gallon tank. They said the one I have now is big enough. It’s not. I tried to convince them. I have roughly 100 dollars. What tank do you recommend that’s cheap enough and big enough? I get an allowance of 5 dollars ever week. Do you have any recommendations on decorations/enrichment for my fish? I also have 3 live plants, but do you recommend any? I have a java fern, a moss ball, and a plant on a rock. (I have no clue on what type of plant it is). I want my new betta to be as happy as possible, and not in a tiny tank.
If you have $100...you have WAY more than enough to get a 10 gallon tank. Any pet store will have them for probably as low as 10 bucks. You can get an entire cheap starter 10 gallon tank set up that has a filter, Hood, light, and even some decorations for like 20-25 bucks.
if people need to be put in perspective this is the equivalent to selling a puppy with its eyes not even open
It's really sad :(
"Fish have feelings too"
😭😭😭
If that were true it would be dead she said it couldn't eat pellets but mine ate them and is fully grown

Idk Why people treat fish like they are not even animals....

I completely agree but if you ever do see a sick betta in a pet store, sometimes they will give it to you for free! It doesn’t hurt to ask!
I would just put it in a bag and run lol
c00kie.subliminals yup, if I was ever going to do this I would for sure steal the Betta. Sorry not sorry 😐
Bella Thedoggo if you think Americans are bad about putting fish in small container wait until you see what the Chinese and Japanese do.

Try to feed it a boiled egg and just give it the egg yolk but make sure to mix it with water and then use an eye dropper to feed. I did that with my guppy fry but I used a different method but now I no longer have guppies cause they all died so i no longer do that.
My thing with “saving” fish is that you’re still purchasing it, therefore increasing demand. If there is demand for an animal, as good as it may feel to give said animal a good life, they’ll just replace it with another one. I feel like this is important for you to mention in these kinds of videos, because while you have a platform and can educate people on why buying fish from chain stores isn’t ethical, other people don’t, so when they “save” fish, they’re really just dooming another to the same fate.
eidola well said!
This videos needs a rather large disclaimer
I bought a baby beta from the store, I had a feeling I should buy her. We are putting her in a decent size cage, and the store told us to feed her blood worms then pellets every other day. Is that safe?
I had to transport by betta in a pretzel container similar to that canister last year lmao.
(I was moving across the country)
Yes! Please do a how to rescue betta I’m wanting to do it as well but I’m a little confused on a few things 😅
Watch SimplyBetta on youtube. She will show you how to feed baby Bettas. She also sells food such as brine shrimp lil worms on her website. Not sure how long the shipping is.
Well, you just got a full time subscriber! Thank you for your perfectness!👏👏❤️🙏
Love all of your videos keep up the good work your videos helped me set up my tank you are the only UA-camr I watch you’re the best
So happy you posted a vide !! :) btw are you still going to post a video on What items you SHOULD BUY for a betta fish tank ?
Love ur vids you save all of the animals a nd give them better libes
Thank you!! I love what I do
Maybe you could try a syringe (not the injection but the one to give liquid medication to kids. They have those for free at some pharmacies and you can change them often if they get dirty
PLEASE stop “rescuing” animals from chain pet stores! Stop buying from abusive situations! For every one you buy, they order two more and the cycle continues! It’s a sad thing to see, but STOP putting your money into those places!
k but she’s saving that one it doesn’t really matter for every one that dies they order another
elysian my point is that if people can be responsible and boycott the abuse chain pet stores put animals through, it wouldn’t be an issue. “Rescuing” one is just going to put more in that same bad situation.
You are the best UA-camr ever
That little betta fry was so tiny! I breed Betta fish and that little baby should not have even left his spawn tank away from siblings. Also for how small could have bought some microworms or vinegar eels, some kijiji (community sell page) could sell beginner cultures and could pick them up same day or next day, depending on the seller. Also random fun fact, wild bettas even captive bred will almost always hide. Captive bred bettas (Not wild) won't hide as much but they do love lots of live plants to feel safe and happy, plus provides some shade from the tank lights because betta fish are pretty sensitive to bright lights. You're videos are really good and the rescue fish videos are my favourite.
Alssooooo..., 😂🤗 the straw lol awwwe. Hey! For being so small too, could use a pipette for the food.
hi! I really want to get a betta. would you please tell me what I should get? I am going to get a 5-gallon tank, but I don't know what else to get. you seem really educated about this stuff, and when I get older I want to help rescue fish :)
You should do a video about ur favorite fish and talk about why its ur favorite fish
Hi! I just subscribed!! ive had my betta since November. I have a question if i buy spring water i won’t have to add the betta water cleaning drops?? (sorry i forgot what it’s called) but please lmk
What's the brand of betta food I have a betta but it won't eat the flakes
just search on amazon "brine shrimp eggs with prime"
I would love an update on your baby bettas you have saved
This is a great video but it's not the best idea to save a fish from a abusive petstore because they will see that there are more sales so they will start to buy even more fish and abuse them and the cycle keeps repeating so the best thing to do is to boycott these type of stores.
Is 86 degrees too warm for a 10 gallon tank for a betta? Or should I lower the temperature?
Lower it that isn’t bad but try to keep it low 80’s if anything
I keep bettas myself and did lots of research so just trying to help
Could you make a video on what to feed bettas and baby bettas
PLEASE HELP!!!!! EMERGENCY!!!!!!
My male betta fish when I first got him had, what looked like a white, pin head sized bump on him and now it's gotten noticeably worse. I messaged you on Instagram, but please please please help me 😢😭
Hi! I'll try to find your DM right now. From how it sounds it is probably some form of an infection that you may need medicine for unfortunately
What happened?
is a 1.35 gallon to small for a betta fish?
Lindsey Chong yes
I’m planning on getting a betta fish! Pls do more betta fish videos!😁
yes, her betta videos are my favorite :) and very helpful
Congratulations on your engagement!
Aquarium Co-Op ships out baby brine eggs and even have a hatchery too, plus they ship out 1-3 day usps priority
Your vids are awsome, I rescued a baby betta recently and it was amazing
So cute how you snuck her in but she’s so tiny you literally could have just said it’s tea if anyone at the hotel asked hahaha
I went to pets mart yesterday and all the bettas were either dead or sick and i got a really pretty mustard male
I got a butterfly betta male
its blue and has long fins and in the tip of the fins there is white
I named him neptune
what about lucky did you save him?
sorry but for a sec i thought he was going to drink the fish and the tan water :(
Not trying to hate, but, when you get “save” a fish they are just going to replace the fish with a new one
hopefully one thats big enough whoever buys it wont kill it!
I bought 2 albino corys who were the last ones in the tank and they had no fins they were obviously very scared cause they were hiding and they looked so sick. So I bought them and when I had the lady get them for me she said they'd only live a couple of days and asked me many times if I was sure I wanted them. Of course I wanted them because if they stayed there they would have died. I've had them for a couple of months now they're double the size and have all their fins again. They're enjoying life with my 2 balloon Molly's and will soon have a 3rd because I bought a pregnant molly. I've also thought about getting 2 more Cory's but I have a male and female so I think I'm going to leave them and see if they do have babies. Since I had to raise a balloon molly from newborn to about a month old (hes doing amazing and is going in soon) I'm quite confident in my ability to keep the little babies safe.
I want to save a betta bc I feel bad abt how they're put into tiny containers :/
Kayla I need your help. I recently got a galaxy koi betta named Ozai. I have a 3.7 gallon tank. I asked my parents if I could get a 10 gallon tank. They said the one I have now is big enough. It’s not. I tried to convince them. I have roughly 100 dollars. What tank do you recommend that’s cheap enough and big enough? I get an allowance of 5 dollars ever week. Do you have any recommendations on decorations/enrichment for my fish? I also have 3 live plants, but do you recommend any? I have a java fern, a moss ball, and a plant on a rock. (I have no clue on what type of plant it is). I want my new betta to be as happy as possible, and not in a tiny tank.
If you have $100...you have WAY more than enough to get a 10 gallon tank. Any pet store will have them for probably as low as 10 bucks. You can get an entire cheap starter 10 gallon tank set up that has a filter, Hood, light, and even some decorations for like 20-25 bucks.
1216jimmyz thank you sooo much!
