Is that Berta attacking the other fish?
lolBrian the angel will murder EVERYTHING
Naw there both chilling they stay out of each others way
@@thephasmidpharm459 for a second I thought you were the original justin Y.
Dumb pairing. They might be "getting along" now. Give it a couple months and someone will be dead and the other stressed to shit.
Bettas are know for jumping out of their tanks and finding any way to escape or places to put themselves into you should also put some plants or decorations to keep the betta mentally stimulated and a heater
For a HalfMoon betta this tank setup is more then enough just don't fill the water way high up. Don't put a lot decor will tear their tail fin that will cause fin rot.
@@bettaloversingapore3715 hey do you breed bettas? I wanna ask something. I have this male double tail betta. The body is white and the fins are red. The body also have some blue hue(if thats the word) it kinda looks like some halfmoon double tail? If theres something like that 😅so can you identify his color and if he's a halfmoon double tail?
Jekjek Laron Hi😊 I don’t breed Betta for now. And I need a video if you can upload cause hard to tell by words. Can be delta tail Betta also.
@@bettaloversingapore3715 im about to post it but im apologising right now about the water quality and all other things😔 i promise I'll clean it and move the tank😔
@@jekjeklaron7008 maybe i can help
maybe its the betta's stress
betta can change its color due to their emotion
I think that’s the least decorated tank I’ve ever seen 😂
dont be a jurk
@@Herhighnesseshive He isnt being a jerk its true. That betta will be fine in there for a few day but will eventually get extremely bored in there fast. I dont expect you to understand though considering you actively watch this retarded channel.
@@Herhighnesseshive Stfu
I think there's nerds fighting here
Yeah don’t be a jurk
Am I the only one who gets so nervous when they keep them in the net to show the camera? XD I know they're fine, but I always get so anxious
10:50 have fun:)
@@ieatdog2030 why do you hate me
Ikk Im just like bruh pit it in
Ridley Lullaby same I think I was saying get him some more water out loud hahahaha lol
Me too
Some of the information you're telling your viewers is misleading, and could further the mispractice of betta keeping (and fishkeeping in general)
First, lake water will not cycle your tank instantly. You don't know what is in that water; there could be parasites, bad bacteria or other micro-organisms you don't want in your tank - especially since it is outdoors. The nitrifying bacteria that cycles aquariums does not colonize in the water column, but on hard surfaces. So adding in your fresh lake water will do little to nothing except potentially cause problems down the line. For future reference, instead of impulse-buying everything at once, cycle your tank fishless without lake water - or, take some seeded media from another aquarium because that will hold way more bacteria than water will. Since you seem a little uninformed about nitrifying bacteria, you're giving your viewers wrong information. As a large UA-camr, it should be your priority to provide proper care guidelines.
The dial-a-treat is for treat purposes, not for a daily diet. Freeze-dried foods like what is in that provide little nutrition compared to their frozen/live alternatives - so it isn't really "good" for them, but they do like the occasional treat. Do nooot feed those treats on a daily basis, they are dehydrated and can easily cause bloat if you are not careful. I do recommend getting frozen bloodworms and other high-protein pellets. Varying your betta's diet is the best you can do.
The 7-day feeders are known to be unreliable and will pollute your water over time. It is better to give them a good feeding before you go and let them go a week without food. Bettas can go a couple weeks without food, and though its not recommended, its better than potentially causing a cycle crash / ammonia spike while you are away and unable to do anything. If you're that concerned, get a friend to come over and feed them.
Betta fish ARE known jumpers and are notorious for killing themselves because of it.
The tank itself isn't great. Bettas are smart little fish and do need enrichment. He needs more than a leaf hammock and a moss ball. It's important to add more surface decorations for more resting places. Bettas love being at the surface and long-finned bettas need the extra resting spots because of their finnage.
Hopefully you read this and take a step back to research a bit more before making videos where you have hundreds of thousands of people being influenced. There are already enough fish being mistreated, don't fuel the fire even more.
THANK YOU. I couldn’t have said that better myself
EXACTLY
Yes!!!!
Commenting so this comment is higher and more visible. More people need to know this. Bettas get so mistreated.
I was thinking the same thing!!!
I think you should add some substrate and plants. The tank needs to be more filled up.
Bro you can use real plants fro Bettas, give the H20 more bacteria and more oxygen level in the tanks , just a little tech tip
Bettas don't care about oxygen level in the tank.
@@tsitsu8345 how you know do you talk to them lol
@@tsitsu8345 betta need oxygen you know they are living things
I think the water is already filled with bioactive materials
cuz pond water
Chameleon24 yes they need oxygen but they go to the top of the tank to breathe
Hey man, I’m just trying to give some advice, it’s your call whether you want to take it or not, but Bettas really need more enrichment than what you’re providing. They are more intelligent than most people think, I’d recommend some black sand and maybe a darker colored piece of decor so he’d still pop against the background. Just a suggestion!
Yup. Ours loves his decorations and will hide and sleep in them. No decorations or anything to hide in can cause stress which will kill them.
So for a beta I would recommend hides and live plants. And obviously substrate. They need little hide holes to go in. Also I recommend a heater!!
like how he said "they are not known to be jumpers''
God I heard that and was like Uhhh... 🙄🙄
Ikr I take perfect care of my betta but if my tank didn’t have a lid he would jump out, he’s fast and always on the move
I really wish you would just "LEAVE THE BETTAS ALONE" - Chris Crocker voice
BETTA : oh atleast i got home
.....24 hours later..he delivers that to shop....
Betta: Ah shit here we go Again.
no cursing
Jane Bull well fuck I didn’t know we got censored
You realise there's barely any bacteria kept in water right? You cant cycle a tank with mature water alone.
Bacteria lives on surfaces like filter media, gravel, ornaments etc.
To instantly cycle a tank you could add some mature filter media or gravel but not water.
Maybe you added some liquid bacteria to speed the cycle process without mentioning.
Cool Betta though bro.
RYJAWA
Thanks for saying this
He needs to use some cycled media in the filter and some gravel or anything from a mature tank, he could use one from one of his crayfish tanks
@@giuseppefisher3000 it's amazing how many people dont understand the nitrogen cycle.
Chances are that the betta will just about be okay because they're surface air breathers and arent as vulnerable to poor water.
That being said, some people watching this will think that this method is fine and will kill a bunch of fish.
Thank you
What are bettas?
@@troy1207
Siamese fighting fish
1. That tank is too small
2. He needs places to hide
3. WHERE IS THE HEATER
4. They do jump
PLEASE DO RESEARCH
heater ? depens on the water temp. all my heaters are out of the tank atm.. water temp is 26 celcius right now. so dont need them till winter again.
Stop. Stop, stop, Stop!
You need to stop.
That tank is perfectly fine. (All though my Betta is in a 10 gallon with some corydoras)
The heater is probably built in. Most are!
Yes, he needs a place to hide, but you’re suppose to build on tanks. Not everything is perfect the second you get it.
THERE IS A LID! You can clearly see him put on the lid!
l e m o n s p a r k ok I’ll admit I was heated when I made this comment
However, I am worried about this fish. Bettas are notorious jumpers, so this tank needs a lid. They also need around 75-80 degree water at all times
The poor thing is going to be stressed out if things aren’t changed
@@adelade7801 this tank does not have a build in heater..
this tank is okay if you look at the size.. but i would not give it to a beginner aquarium keeper.. and deff not to a beginner betta keeper.
the tanks does have a lid.. but it is open in the middle where the light is.. room for the betta to jump out of.. and trust me,, they can jump up to 5-6 inches easy if you have the plakat types.
and yes. you build a tank.. but you als wait with getting fish till your tank is 50-75-100% done. not before.
i have seen a lot of his video's and also the videoas that paul posts... both of them are questionable fish keepers..
when you listen, it sounds like he knows what he is talking about,, but it you know stuff about fish... welllllll.. nope, he does not.
AMEN!!!
I want to say, you might consider some substrate and actual plants. Betas like to hide. And having a lot of plants in even a 2.5 would improve things greatly for the little guy. He's gorgeous by the way, and looks just like the little platinum that I have in my 10 gallon.
And actually like 5 gallon would be better because they love to swim and they need at least 5 gallon space
That Beta is not rare I have one and so does my friend
Ant Fox lmao same dude
Ant Fox same i have three of them
your comment is SO ignorant. You ever consider that based on geography (location) that some things are more difficult to come by than where you're from?.....I mean...It may be a rare fish to him personally cause he hasn't found one in all the fish stores he's been to in HIS area! Just cause you found easier in your area where you live doesn't mean it's not rare to someone else.
Lucky for you. They are hard to find though, a lot of people want them. That’s your opinon
Yeah dumbos are not that rare. In my country they cost like 2 bucks
When u try to not upset anyone, it made the video 10 times more funny
Betta fish are VERY good jumpers. In the wild, they jump from water pocket to water pocket. They live in rice fields in Thailand. So maybe keep a lid if you see him trying to jump. He’s a beautiful fish!
That is the Platinum half moon Betta. Quite rare but Gold is even more rare, if you ever need a golden Betta let me know I can get one for you.
Shit if I had the money I'd ask about a purple half moon. Boyfriend wants one badly
Nemos and Hellboys are the hype
I need gold full moon or half Moon Betta. But suggested is full moon. If full Moon is not available then send half Moon
Love your passion for fishing and aquariums keep em coming!
I didn’t say it bro but Kelly wants the Octopus 👀 it would look cool seeing it with the catch em gang and live feedings though
He’s probably waiting to move in his new house before he does anything crazy like that
Get some planting substrate and add some live plants, plus planting the aquarium will give him places he can get out of the flow. And add some cherry or crystal shrimp.
This is gonna be a banger like always but when's the new house coming
Love your videos!!! You inspired me to start posting my videos of my koi pond journey on my channel! Keep them coming!!!
Amazing video lots awesome fishes and I seen different colors betta n different types too great information and discovery from this video
It’s absolutely MASSIVE “that’s what she said”
Osbaldo Albiter Albiter OMG lol
And just so we all know Betta fish are most definitely known for jumping so be careful and use a nice fitting lid
Unannounced Loser agreed
I really enjoy your commentary. Keeps me in tune with the show. I strive for that
Right
What a beautiful halfmoon white platinum betta. So gorgeous 😍
Think it would be dope if you caught all your salt water fish 🤟🤟
@Annabelle Slocombe yah u can if the fish r legal size, invasive, or if u hav the permits
Yes a salt water tank would be great🙌🙌🔥🔥🔥🔥
Awesome Zak!Keep up the good work!
Omg that is the cutest beta fish I have seen. Loving Loving the videos stay awesome
10:06 this beta fish reminds me of one that I had a couple years ago it was white but on the tail it had streaks of blue I honestly wish he was still alive because he was beautiful.
i love how enthusiastic you are like a kid in a candy store lol i want to get my first fish tank so im doing the research right now and im loving the youtubers im finding who are so passionate about taking good care of their fish
my betta's have always loved the keaves. I am so glad that you help by giving the information about you do
why dont you put plants and rocks????
MIa Roberts coz he doesn’t actually care about the fish
@@thephasmidpharm459 true
@justin ys friend plants and rocks are don't do nun... they just make the tank look pretty
Ari's Moonlight have you actually kept fish?
@justin ys friend most defintly have and they don't need that stuff... I mean maybe if its a fish that likes to hide it will need a lot of plants but a lot of fish die from eating pebbles and rocks
Catch Em All
Hey Zack I love your videos and I learned a lot of new things about fish because of u and I also watch Joey
I love that your doing Betta videos!!! 😀💛💚
Nice vid bro keep us updated the that beautiful fish there
He's gorgeous!! I have mine in a 2 1/2 gal tank & he's doing fine! :D They only thing I would add are gravel & some plants, & maybe something for him to hide in. I know you've had them before, but they always look happier in a "crowded" tank. Good luck with him! :D
Crowded tank? Do you mean with fish or plants? Plants would be fine but with fish not to much,he could get a bigger tank and add some cory catfish and a pleco. But I would agree if you were talking about plants,they love to hide and mess around also, he needs a heater. In one of his vids(dont know if you have seen it) he killed alot of bettas he put Male bettas together. Does he care about his fish? Need an answer please.
ZeRo Phantasm I have one simple answer to your heater in the tank comment, no heater is needed..... if YOURE cold In the room you’re in then your betta fish is freezing.... if YOURE burning up in your room...... then we’ll your betta is probably hating life. I have had my 2 betta for almost a year with no heater or filter , the filter seemed to irritate and scare my betta fish ..... and he’s a brave little fish too. I clean the water regularly and often I stand by the tank and play with them, I believe as long as you don’t freeze the fish or over heat it ..... it will be fine.
Id go with the octopus too! I use to Volunteer at the Oregon Coast Aquarium as a teen, I loved working the Octopus area, they are super smart and fun to watch! Again Great Video! Take Care
Wow....beautiful fish! Thanks for sharing.
Awesome betta and tank but you should get a heater for his tank and maybe some nice floating plants 😊👌🏻
This betta will get ammonia burn on his gills congrats you just killed a platinum
Why? New to keeping fish, I'm just curious
@@russiagoeshard the tank is too little it will swim in its shit
Thats is a beautiful betta fish catch em all i love that mossball
They love the leaves so keep up the great work Zack
Saltwater is amazing! I had a dwarf lionfish, a moray eel and a whole lot of other fish in a 2meter long aquarium (in my room)
tl tl key word had 😂 did the morray eat the rest? They grow to 5m in big tanks
No he didn't! A bubbletip anemeny did!!
Love ur vids. Best channel on the YT!!
platinum white halfmoon! that is awesome Zack!..you are my idol Man!
Betta care:
2.5 minimum gallon
Heater for 78 - 82 degree because they are tropical fish
Plants and hides(they don’t enjoy bright lights) but they’re needed if you want a planted tank
Food: bloodworms and brine shrimp from the frozen cubes are great or freeze dried.
Now some recommendations for your fluval(I have the 5 gallon version). The intake will suck the bettas fins in so I recommend adding mesh to cover it up to avoid that problem. I unfortunately learned this the hard way. The output needs to be baffled due to bettas not being able to swim with a strong current(fluvals are powerful) so a prefilter sponge will help your little guy out.
Oh and bettas ARE jumpers. They are constantly ended up outside of tanks in the betta Facebook groups if they don’t have a lid over the top. People will even train them to jump through hoops out of the water.
Oh and those food blocks for 7 days can kill a fish real quick. They throw the tank cycle off and they’re horrible. Don’t recommend them at all.
Hope that helps you or anyone that reads this and wants to get a betta.
EXACTLY THANKYOU
Zack your the goat of the fish godd
Hang on a minute. I thought your plat Gar was stolen!! Now your saying your not aloud to keep them! So was it actually stolen or at you just giving us BS?
Don’t get me wrong. I freaking love your vids. Just asking
No he said that he could not keep it anymore so leave him alone
He lied sometimes.Kinda disappointed of it
elby Jones Zak said it stolen. There’s a bloody video all about it.
Scripted shits
Omg who cares just watch his videos he probably ate it
Really like the videos keep up the good work
Epic videos zack you always make my day
Your fish is so cool
You are the best and I like arowana
just a heads up, bettas indeed are jumpers. 2.5 gallons is sufficient but maybe in the future a 5 gallon might be nice for it.
Your literally the best UA-camr
I love your vids and I love how much you care about fish it’s amazing
Very pretty.... I need to get my son some fishes...
Its a legit lamp for da dark call him light. LIGHT THE BETTA FISH
i just subbed keep up the work we love you man
Great video!
Also just because you added water from the pool pond does not mean it won't go thru a cycle water only has a lilbit of bacteria usually filters sand etc has more and better bacteria.
There's a fluval flex that can hold 32.5 gallons I suggest checking it out
2.5 gallons is the minimum requirement for a betta fish and after about 5-6 years keeping both male and females I can assure you that betta will do just fine. They are very hardy fish.
I just love enthusiasm for your fish !! LOL !!! I would hope more people did !!! :)
Haha loved this, I have all 3 of those same foods. Mine does not like the tablet much I fed him some of the dial a treats today and he got down with it
Need plants in this tank for the betta 👍
You should defiantly catch a lion fish and keep it!!
yeah and then just pet him their very soft fish
Yo it’s awesome seeing the passion you have for this hobby/sport
Thanks for the info for the Betta bed.
I just order one for my betta.
Awesome
2.5 is okay, it’s actually the bare minimum.
Literally, the bare minimum
It’s fine.
@@Timothy_Andrews, the beta fish live in rice patties and other small bodies of water. Small doesn't mean a 2.5 gallon bowl were talking couple thousand gallons for hundreds of bettas that have the rice plant as a great source of filtration. When the Dry season Rolls Around then they Get Traped in Small puddles. When you put a beta in a 1,2,3 gallon tank you are essentialy keeping them in the dry season condition. And if you don't have stuff for their mental stimulus they get bored and then stressed. A big thing that would help this tank(and betta) is substrate and more plants.
@@victorplata817 so your saying to put a betta in a thousand gallon tank? also bettas are mostly captive bred and dont know anything about the wild
@@jonathaniriqui no a ten gallon or a five even is a much better choice. True the bettas now have never known the wild but in truth do we. yet we all have a nice cosy house with the ability to go where ever we want. They don't have that choice, when you buy that fish his life is in your hands, just like a dog. You would let the dog outdoors for a walk or to run in the yard, it's mental stimulation and space to roam. So yes a 5 or 10 gallon would do well for a betta. You could even put some other critters in there with him if they get along.
Just because you can live in your bedroom doesn't mean you want to. So think about what it's like for them
Love your videos
Cool video!❤
1) he’s not rare 2) you didn’t properly acclimate him 3) you need hides in your tank 4) he needs a heater
please do not buy a betta fish if you don’t do your research first.
@TOXIC_ASF you still need to acclimate because the water parameters can be different, and temperature vary in homes. It still needs a heater. This guy knows nothing about fish
Fluval flex tanks should sponsor you
They like all sorts of places to explore too! Try adding some substrate and rocks, maybe some live plants. Part of the fun for me is making your own little world for your pet to enjoy.
Love your videos very entertaining
Get the lion fish too
Does he really care about the fish tho?? I mean Im not tryna hating him,been watching his vid for almost a year now and I kept my betta in 10gallons tank with 10 shrimp mate.Heavy planted tank and a lot of place to swim in.
When he said "oh i have this betta in 2.5 gallons tank and he live for 4 years" yes they can live but is it a good life tho?? I don't think so
The tank size is perfectly fine the rest of his information is horrible though
i think 2.5 gallon is fine(minimal) but i think he didnt check his water parameter for his betta so thats sad
i wish i have fluval tank im jealous
I have a platinum male plakat in a 4 gallon nano cube with tiger lotus lots of
rotala nanjenshan and some ludwigia repens
also my substrate is normal aqua soil
i have a dragon stone as a hard scape and a piece of spider wood but i removed the wood cuz algea
can u tell me more about your tank and i think having shrimp in a betta tank is not healthy
instagram.com/chameleon2400/
Sofea Richie LGBTQ my betta fish lived 5 and a half years in my 2 gallon tank happily
Congrats Zak! You should make a betta sorority tank! I have one of my own and it’s very cool if you have a variety of different colored female bettas.
Fluval spec aquariums are my favorite, that's why I used the 5 gallon version for my betta
I watched and liked the video first. Lol
That anit rare, btw came from the beta fish pond, ur a terrible owner, find it at petsmart
Fan here from the Philippines! More amazing videos to come please

Love the vid, I also have a bright white betta living with a blue crawfish, I bought black sand and gray rocks to put in, and the fish totally POPS, with a black background on the tank as well will look amazing look into it
I'm your 1st viewer on this video
I love this video its cool
You should have cleaned the moss ball before putting it in
The ghost ribbon eel is so beautiful!💙
Positive vibes. Beautiful platinum.
