    Thanks for Liking the video & Subscribing ✊🏻

    First I’m not trying to hate but don’t put the Java fern in the substrate, you need a filter no exceptions, your neons need a already cycled tank or else they may not live. 15 mins of acclamation isn’t nearly enough. You need at least 1.5 hours of drip acclamation for neons if you don’t want them to die of shock. Your betta will get blown around by the bubbles. Bettas don’t like any flow so get rid of the bubbles and get a sponge filter you will notice much improvement. You need a light so You can get the plants to grow more. Also you never properly introduced the betta to new tank mates. You didn’t let it cycle. All I’m saying is do your research. Don’t ignore this comments and say it’s hate cause it’s not. It’s constructive criticism.

    Java ferns i’m supposed to be in the substrate use crazy glue gel to glue them on the rocks you also didn’t let your tank cycle it’s also worse because you’re using that type of substrate that releases ammonia I have been a fan for a while but please do your research you could kill your fish also use a filter a filter is more for bacteria then for oxygen

    Hi,
    Yes you need a filter. There is nowhere for your beneficial bacteria to grow, and the tank cannot properly cycle. The substrate you used releases ammonia, at a pretty fast rate I would also like to add, which means your ammonia will be (and probably is already) out of control.
    Also wouldn’t have put neon tetras with a betta in a 5G tank, they’re fin nippers, especially when in small aquariums.
    You also mentioned putting in a crayfish at some point - if you do this your betta will be dead. Crayfish are notorious for catching fish by the fins and eating them when they are trying to sleep. If it doesn’t catch your fish and eat him, he will stress him out to the point he will die.
    Really enjoyed your videos but this one makes me not want to watch anymore. Please do more research before throwing fish into aquariums. They need to be put into cycled tanks and drip acclimated properly.

      @@RiyaSingh-rb6ch hey I think that cardinal tetras would be fine, but in a 5G tank they won’t really have much room to swim or exhibit their schooling behavior which over time will stress them out. If you moved up to a 10 or 20G tank you would be much better off.

    I wanted to thank you for trying to go more national that's pretty awesome and eventually you'll be really amazed with doing planted tanks you don't actually need to buy new stuff for every planted tank you could actually just rearrange things in your tanks and it's really cool
    I don't spend much money in Taiwan when it comes to doing tanks everything in Taiwan is separate except for the filter it comes with the tank and we don't have stuff with lids and lights and things like that
    But we also have you know reasonable prices for most things except for aquarium soil that stuff is freaking expensive thankfully you can get a small bag which is enough to you know do your thing but if you really wanted to you could actually use just organic potting soil you put a couple scoops in there and you cap it with natural looking gravel your plants will have nutrition.
    You can do the garden soil with a layer of inexpensive aquarium soil and then you do a capping of gravel and you've got a nice looking tank plus your root feeders can feed now usually when you put in aquarium soil the nutrition is going to last for at least a month so you don't need liquid fertilizer for your plants that feed off the water column because that nutrients will be going through the water also keep in mind when you're doing a plan and take the pH goes up
    If your pH is through the roof add one or two teaspoons depending on how the salt reacts to your water but make sure it's diluted and use aquarium salt.
    Also get a little net put in some Coral with these things plus frequent 40% water changes at least three times a week your water will stay stable it won't become acidic
    Took me 3 years to figure this out I finally got the water to stay mostly non-excitic I'm going to wait a month and then I'm going to attempt to do another planet tank with the way I described
    But I'm going to have to hide it under my table because my landlord says I can only have three tanks.
    I don't know he's afraid that if I run all the filters that the apartment will build up burn down cuz it's old
    If you bothered to talk to me he would know that I don't run them all at once and that I do it one at a time and the filters only on maybe a few hours every day this works for two reasons first I have food that is easily dropped in I don't so I don't use flakes and other things that are messy second I am very careful about how much stuff is on how long it's on yeah so and I'm always at home
    I run the filters at night that way at home when I'm not here they don't nothing needs to be on but he insists that I can only have three animals
    it's really sad cuz I've got this desk that would be perfect for a 5 gallon tank I can move over my 2 gallon tank and put another 5 gallon on the desk actually if I did it right I could have three more tanks in my room but he won't let me damn it
    one day I'm going to have my own fish room I know exactly how I'm going to do it
    I'm going to grow out plants I'm going to have a large bag of potting soil I'm going to have just everything natural and I'm going to learn even more about escaping and I'm going to rescue bettas that are living in crappy conditions and then I'm going to sell the tank with the fish which will be healthy and people can have a happy healthy fish in the appropriate beta size tank

    You should get rid of the bubble wall and 100% get a filter. Betta fish don’t like the flow and major water movement, that stresses them even more. They also have the labyrinth organ which allows them to come up to the surface to breathe water. Also those fake plants could mess up your betta fins so just Get rid of that entire fake decor and do a real all planted tank. This was a sad attempt.
