😱 I remember when my daughter brought home a goldfish prize from a street fair. It's been nearly ten years, went from a ten gallon to a 40 gallon, to what we have now - two 75 gallon aquariums and a 125 gallon one. One of the precious little feeders grew to be just over a foot long. Tell the newbies to get educated about fish; this is not a non-maintenance hobby. ...Thank you for all your clips on the tube.
that's an awesome story :) That's best case scenario, instead of letting the fish suffer, y'all went deeper into fishkeeping in order to take care of it properly. Proof that each fish is important.
I was at a Petsmart once, and a dad was there with his daughter and his little precious had just won a goldfish as a prize at some horrible fish abuse carnival or something and he was looking to find an aquarium for the fish. To his credit, he asked the PetSmart employee, and the employee sort of paused for a second, and gave 100% accurate fish care guidance. You could see dad was not happy. He then hopped on his phone and I'm guessing, saw that employee was right. I didn't see what he purchased, but I really, REALLY wish fish as prizes was made illegal.
My mother has been sending me tiktok fish vids asking "this can't be good for the fish, right??" I'm so proud of her. Keep up the good work of fish education, Chirs.
I got my mom into fish keeping, and when at the pet store today, she saw a betta bowl and said “wait, people actually keep fish in there permanently?” I’m so proud of how far she’s come:)
i wanted some platies a few days ago and i had to convince my dad that we need a 10 gallon tank instead of a 5 gallon, im now $105 in debt but its worth it 😁 update: they all quickly because of pH levels 😥 But luckily now I have some Neon Tetras + new water and they have lived for about 2 weeks now happy and healthy!
QOTW Answer: the puddle to “pond” conversion was the worst. They seamlessly combined animal abuse with ecological terrorism. Then distilled it down to a 45 second video.
Chris I just want to thank you on behalf of my beta. I gave my daughter a betta fish and put it in a plastic .5 gallon tank with pink gravel, an artificial plant, and a bright pink castle 🤢😩 but since watching your videos he’s now in a 10 gallon planted tank all alone (with one snail) and eating bloodworms❤️🤗
I don't have fish but I have snake and I went to Walmart to see if they had atleast one good fake plant. Literally all of them were so awful I left q bit upset
I worked at petco for 3 weeks. My last day I wrote a 6 page care sheet on the fish and wrote my resignation on the bottom of page 6. Then I reported the animal abuse to corporate
The worst for me was the kid spitting the water. Classic goldfish abuse turns so rare and special when it's doubling down as an actual risk for a human child
The first or the "mini lake" were the worst. I'm tilting towards the puddle because what it can do to it's surroundings. But it is also frustrating to see so many fish cramped up together where they can barely move. I think the rabbit and dog cage are for temporary use so it's not as bad. I hope it's temporary...
yeah I think in the sense of which video would have the most negative impact... that puddle vid for sure, it could potentially end more than 100,000+ lives and organisms
The bad thing for the rabbit cage is the wire bottom. It’s really bad for the rabbit’s feet since they only have fur, not pads. It causes sore hocks and other issues over time.
I had a coworker who used to use goldfish instead of minnows for fishing. I would tell him about it and the danger's of doing that, unfortunately I think he was a relative of Forest Gump.
That parent being like "Gracie!! That's so mean" when they were the one who left a CHILD who doesn't know any better in charge of a literal living creature.
For some reason I got the impression that maybe it was a sibling of some sort, but that could just be me projecting because my sister is named Gracie lmfao
My pea puffers puffed up at my Pomeranian it was actually funny. It only happened once though and wasn’t on purpose. Mr fluff puff just seen this furry critter staring at it lol! The aquarium was on my nightstand at the time.
My nephew fed dog food to my brother in laws cherry shrimp breeding colony (which had been breeding for a year straight). There were only a few survivors
ahh i hate when the younger family member "fixed" my tank. he litrally killed all my guppies who were breeding😭😭. i had been away for just an hour bruh
I just love how those people putting goldfish in that puddle are so confident in their own stupidity that they posted video of them breaking the law for all to see.
So brutal to see so much fish abuse, exactly why I don't have TikTok! The worst thing is that there are even worst scenarios out there :( Chris thanks for trying to balance those clips with high-scoring beautiful tanks! ~Balance~ 💙
You should watch the show “Tanked” it’s basically a show where these two guys turn random things into tanks but you should see if you agree with their stocking choices and the space of tanks and stuff and make a video on it
I can't wait to send in some Pics of my tanks. I have 10 different tanks set up right now and I would love to have you review some of them! I have been watching for only a few months now, but I love your content!
Not even joking, my sister had that tank from the start of this video. She... you guessed it. Put a betta in it. Oh but she didn't stop there, there was clearly too much room still so she put in not 1, not 2 but 3 neon tetras in with the betta. She was so confused as to why the betta killed the neons, and why the betta later died. It lived for 2 weeks.
Video game with slightly better fishkeeping: The Sims 4. There's a bunch of goofy stuff too, (like being able to overstock tanks, fish bowls, etc.) but the bigger tanks look like they'd easily be 75-90+ gallon tanks, and there's even a full planted pond you can buy and stock with several different fish. Worst clip by far was the betta bowl growing slime mold on top.
Cylinder tank. Could be hydrocotyle (not sure that’s spelled correctly) but I think it’s Taiwan Lily’s. Have them in one of my tanks. Their great. TikToks……. Kinda glad I’m to old for that. Edit: I looked again. Might be a combination of both plants. Anyway. I’m inspired. It’s lovely. Good work to whoever sent that in 👏 👏 👏
The most proper portrayed Fish Tank I’ve ever seen in a video game is in Detroit become human they have neon tetra in their bluedorf Grammies and Cory Dora is it’s a great community tank it looks amazing and they’re all schooling together
That first tank actually could have been something really cool. Maybe like a mini moss garden with snails and shrimp or a planted dutch style with some chilli rasboras.
@@tooclean_1253 Brightly colored shrimps like cherry shrimp can be big targets. Have u tried ghost shrimp or amanos? Those are the only ones I've had success keeping with my bettas

I'd like betta fish don't get me wrong, some species are incredibly pleasing to keep and view, but there's so many beautiful species of nano fish I'd choose to stock a smaller tank 5g and up with, over a betta any day...
@@FishForThoughtForshure... I really would like to get a XL betta, like a koi, or panda 🐼... I saw black samurai at my LFS I was very impressed, it was so perfect looking that it almost didn't look real 😳 if I had the setup running for it I would of bought it but, honestly I'd want to do a really nice scaped tank for that betta if I wanted to keep it.. That kind of fish deserves it because it's so beautiful hopefully someone thought the same and gave him a good setup 🙏
That appears to be an air cooled PC, which would be heating up the fish tank a negligible amount, leaving the water too cold if anything. The temperatures you quote are for the chips themselves though, and are taken from directly inside of their lids, a tiny little one square inch piece of metal reaches those temperatures, which you attach a large heatsink to dissipate the heat.
That first one hurt, omg! We had that awful little tank at one point with multiple small carnival goldfish in it. It was a nightmare to properly clean, and when one fish got sick, all of them followed. We now only have one goldfish kept in a bigger tank (not sure on measurements admittedly...it's probably still on the too-small side if I had to guess, honestly) and its scales went from dull gray to shiny orange in the time we've had it. It's been about 3 years now, and we're all very attached to the little fella.

@@polecatpaws most sharks swim constantly and will bump their nose on the corners of a square tank and do damage to their sensory organs. In some cases this can kill the shark.
I went from a 2 gallon tank for a betta (My mom bought it when I was younger) to a 10 gallon :) My betta's name is toby, and he is a wimp but that's okay. I thought male bettas were supposed to be aggressive but I always get the ones that are weaker
I agree with Chris on the Pea puffer I have a pea puffer in a5 gallon aquarium and I actually forgot they actually blow up like balloons when stressed.
i was having a normal afternoon, scrolling though youtube shorts. BAM, someone takes a a plot out of water, kisses it, puts it back in the tank that’s murkier than shreks swamp
9:09 "The resilience of Betta fish ladies and gentlemen". My Betta who got acclimated for 30 mins, placed into a 15 gal full of live plants with, Indian almond leaves, added vitamins to strengthen immune system, natural medication to prevent stress related illnesses as well as bacterial infections, aquarium salt, fed live brine shrimp and daphnia and extra black water extract for general health, on his third day: Kinda wanna vibe with severe swim bladder until I die a week later ;) Last time I get a halfmoon twin tail Betta, gonna stick to my crown tails.
09:00 That's protein on the surface. It's a clear sign of overfeeding and poor water quality. To get rid of it: - Feed less - Clean your filter (not deep clean, but rinse it and remove larger chunks) DO NOT SCRUB IT - Clean your substrate with a sucky thingy - Change water more frequently
Just want to give props to the good LFS's out there. I am lucky to live 15 minutes from an excellent one. I was there yesterday (like almost every Saturday) just looking around (so of course I ended up getting a couple crypts and some java moss) when I watched a teenaged staff member calmly and patiently talk an old man out of severely overstocking a bunch of cheap goldfish. I thought of you, Chirs.
My LFS recommends to newbies that they should keep their fish in a cup instead of a tank. Watched someone once walk out with a half gallon tank and a discus.
Chris, those PC temperatures are at the CPU core. Ambient temps inside the case could well be within acceptable range for tropical fish. However, the other issues with that, um, "tank" are extremely obvious.
I'm gonna get a fishbowl, decorate it, keep it empty of water, add a toy fish, and a paper that reads: "The only fish that belongs in a bowl is a toy fish."
Yo my dude been following your ftr for a while now and been sending my tank photos multiple times but still not featured huhu but no big deal hahaha will support you still. Keep it up! 😅💯
Those bags they bought the goldfish in literally says “do not release anything”. They couldn’t even take two seconds to read the bag their bad decision came in.
9:30 For betta fish tanks with no active filter, ive seen that this is usually a sign of poor water quality or a access of dead bacteria gathering at the surface
Well I did it my Ziploc washing tin foil reusing cheap self just became a member!!!! Over a year of religiously watching you Monday and Wednesday. Maybe my tank will make it to Fish tank review.
QOTW: Betta in the tiny tube. It has high flow and the fish has a long tail and fins. It is going to be exhausted in only a few minutes of that environment THEN it has the up and down temperatures of the computer. Yeah… that’s straight up torture.
My barber actually bought a replica of the first one and since i work with fish he asked me for a mollie i gave it to him but told him to do water changes everyday
I remember my first beta that my parents got me long ago, my parents got him a decent sized tank (about the size of a samsung wide screen monitor) and we put in plants, bamboo (im not sure if their good but the fish lived for over 4 years so..), I was always taught to ACTUALLY treat the fish well, like feed it and clean its tank every so often. we also got water filters, and everything and the beta lived for 4 years. Everytime i see videos where the moms are literally abusing the fish and teaching their kid like this, it just makes me happy that my mom taught me well (unlike some parents -coughcough-)
I just want to point out a thing about the pc fishtank. First, if the water cooling pump was actually connected to the pc, it wouldn't be water in it and the fish would NOT be alive. Second, dont worry about the heat because we can clearly see that the tubes are not connected to the cpu and the setup doesn't have a gpu. In fact, the cpu has a fan so its a fake water cooling pump setup with real water and a beta in it. No heat generated by the pc is going in that water.
Great video! I have a quick question, I have a 2-2.5 gallon tank laying around from a while ago, would there be any type of fish I could put in the tank, or maybe shrimp? Thanks and I love the videos!
For such a small tank, if you do want to stock it then shrimp and snails are probably best. At most maybe a very small school of some type of teeny tiny tetras?
I was at petsmart grabbing some dwarf hairgrass and there was a lady and her daughter where looking at the bettas and i saw they were holding a 1 gallon and i had to step in and say that the minimum was 5 gallons and then she asked we what about a goldfish or this and she was pointing at the oscars.

*leaves for two months on a ship and comes back to my tanks being on FFT* This is the best day of my life
Pov:
A person buys a betta*pretty good
They pick the best looking one*really good
They have a vase with water*dies inside
The pea puffer puffed up was so sad I love my pea puffers
That poor turtle. The kid was probably just trying to give it somewhere to climb out of the water.
weclome back to the end of the episode, as if i have already been here before hahaha
Chris: *speechless*
The goldfish : *HELP ME!*
I-
I'm gonna get a fishbowl, decorate it, keep it empty of water, add a toy fish, and a paper that reads: "The only fish that belongs in a bowl is a toy fish."
Im watching this with my mouth open down sunken to the floor below me. I dont know what to say. THE PUFFER... THE OIL WATER
You have to go with an arowana for that first tank. Goldfish are to small you can hardly see them.
ok but for real someone might take that seriusly
Yo my dude been following your ftr for a while now and been sending my tank photos multiple times but still not featured huhu but no big deal hahaha will support you still. Keep it up! 😅💯
The perfect stocking for the first tank: *air* 😵
might be overstocked with air...
Those bags they bought the goldfish in literally says “do not release anything”. They couldn’t even take two seconds to read the bag their bad decision came in.
You definitely cursed more in this episode and I'm here for it 😆
9:30 For betta fish tanks with no active filter, ive seen that this is usually a sign of poor water quality or a access of dead bacteria gathering at the surface
The plant in the round tank is Taiwan lily!!
8:35 is Nymphoides Taiwan! Great plant
Well I did it my Ziploc washing tin foil reusing cheap self just became a member!!!!
Over a year of religiously watching you Monday and Wednesday. Maybe my tank will make it to Fish tank review.
The one with a little puffer is a green puffer
QOTW: Betta in the tiny tube. It has high flow and the fish has a long tail and fins. It is going to be exhausted in only a few minutes of that environment THEN it has the up and down temperatures of the computer. Yeah… that’s straight up torture.
My barber actually bought a replica of the first one and since i work with fish he asked me for a mollie i gave it to him but told him to do water changes everyday
I remember my first beta that my parents got me long ago, my parents got him a decent sized tank (about the size of a samsung wide screen monitor) and we put in plants, bamboo (im not sure if their good but the fish lived for over 4 years so..), I was always taught to ACTUALLY treat the fish well, like feed it and clean its tank every so often. we also got water filters, and everything and the beta lived for 4 years. Everytime i see videos where the moms are literally abusing the fish and teaching their kid like this, it just makes me happy that my mom taught me well (unlike some parents -coughcough-)
The house for sale with a possible trout... Whats that a SECOND fish in the bottom?!?!
4:20 plz tell me you didn't actually think that cage was the dog's home
I just want to point out a thing about the pc fishtank. First, if the water cooling pump was actually connected to the pc, it wouldn't be water in it and the fish would NOT be alive. Second, dont worry about the heat because we can clearly see that the tubes are not connected to the cpu and the setup doesn't have a gpu. In fact, the cpu has a fan so its a fake water cooling pump setup with real water and a beta in it. No heat generated by the pc is going in that water.
The adding of fish in the beginning scared me.
Bro wiped out a whole frog colony 💀
i actually used to have the tank seen in 0:54 when i was rlly young
safe to say i regret it to this day
Great video! I have a quick question, I have a 2-2.5 gallon tank laying around from a while ago, would there be any type of fish I could put in the tank, or maybe shrimp? Thanks and I love the videos!
For such a small tank, if you do want to stock it then shrimp and snails are probably best. At most maybe a very small school of some type of teeny tiny tetras?
@@HaizeyWings Thank you!
That first "tank" I had on my office desk.
It had bamboo growing out of it because I'll be fucking damned if I'm going to put a fish in there.
FTR is getting Tiktok! just done my pre oral defense bro and im chillin atm 🎉❤
congrats man! Feels good to be getting it done :)
4:06 Some decor+ a (coral catshark, chain catshark,brownbanded bamboo?, epaulette? would do (without the whitetip reefie)
Thx Chris! ^_^
I love FTR! Millie always makes my Monday 1 Million times better! Chris? Who’s Chris?
In Hit Man 2 one of the missions there is a whole aquarium exhibit . Not to sure how accurate it is tbh
I was at petsmart grabbing some dwarf hairgrass and there was a lady and her daughter where looking at the bettas and i saw they were holding a 1 gallon and i had to step in and say that the minimum was 5 gallons and then she asked we what about a goldfish or this and she was pointing at the oscars.
4:23 that dog is so scared, I wouldnt be surprised if she beat it
