      Well I think his "manly" tank was actually the lazy tank this lady (I can't remember names very easily) is taking her time and is being detailed rather than just going rocks, fake plants, cool wood, water, lots of product placement, and done. As a person who likes fish I would go with this video but if I was an office worker who didn't have a window and didn't wanna take 3 hours to set up a tank I would make mine "manly" ya know what I mean?

    Very nice, I did something similar in my 10 gallon beta tank. I did white sand and a river from the left rear to center front. I used light blue gravel for the river, lined like yours with rocks, although much smaller ones. Used a sponge filter, one sword plant one banana plant a a big bunch of cabomba. The beta has 3 neons, an octo cat and 2 blue velvet shrimp. Tried the shrimp as an experiment to match the blue River and blue betta. It has been 5 weeks and so far he has left the shrimp alone. Have a blessed day. Oh, a great video.

  • @michaelfox6820
    @michaelfox6820 2 роки тому

    One big difference between your aquascaping approach and John's (aside from artificial vs live plants) is that John had a cave of sorts under his big branch, where a betta could retreat to. You don't have any such hideout. How important do you think it is to have a retreat like that for a betta, especially when you have other fish in with him/her? I have a Fluval Flex 15, which I aquascaped with live plants wood and rocks. My first try with a betta had a natural retreat amongst some relatively large pieces of dark wood. I tried two female bettas (sequentially) in it; both were territorial and attacked the two other fish in the aquarium (platys). I returned both females and tried a male, but only after removing those dark pieces of wood and putting in two light pieces to lighten up the aquarium. The male never seemed comfortable, and would always sit on the bottom squeezed between glass and plants. He died after a few days. He had a lesion on his back, and I don't know whether this was from abrasion against glass, rock, substrate, or whether he was sick when I got him. Could the lack of a cave-like retreat have anything to do with his discomfort?

    Hi LIsa! I was wondering if you use lids for your beta tanks? I thought they were sort of a must to keep stuff from getting in the tank that might hurt fish. Also, I use live plants but they keep dying! 😕 They just turn brown and some of the stems rot. Sometimes the leaves just disintegrate! Your plants always look so lush and beautiful! Maybe its the substrate you’re using. I think I’ll get some and see if that helps. If you have any other thoughts or suggestions, I’m all ears!!! Thanks for the fun video! I enjoyed watching you scape your tank! 😊
