Girl you are not bad you are just new I've been in the fish keeping for two years you will get around

Vlog Head - 7 years ago

So pretty!!! I am glad you got a bigger tank. To be honest I did the same thing. I had mine in a Half liter. And with you making this video now your are helping break the myth. Thanks. Sorry if I was rambling.

Brianna Underwood - 7 years ago

you actually are doing a great job, for what looks like no offense, a beginner at betta keeping. though, bettas do absolutely need a filter and silk or live plants, so the plastic cannot tear there fins

What if someone ran in kicked the 2.5 off the desk and slammed down 10 gallon. Her face would be like °_°

USE YOUR GLUTES - 7 years ago

I have two males Sushi, and Rio. Rio is a 1 gallon tank and is pretty happy, Sushi is in a half gallon tank and is not happy. I'm so excited I'm getting sushi a new 1 gallon tank! I know it's not that big, but my mom won't get me anything bigger :( But I'm still really excited because it is double size his tank. We rarely go to petco, we buy in bulk for dog and cat food so once every 2 months. 1 gallon is 13 $ at Walmart ):

trash money cash money - 7 years ago

USE YOUR GLUTES that's awesome! Some bettas can't live in small tanks, some can. People assume all bettas can't live in smaller tanks, which is untrue!! Have fun fish keeping :)

Your beta looks so happy more people need to do what you did

Da Frontyardigans - 7 years ago

She really wasn't kidding when she said she was exited

david dior - 7 years ago

you can literally put a single betta in a 100 gallon tank and haters would still find a way to criticize the tank..... FFS

khaki91 - 6 years ago

The size of the tank... Now that is a matter of opinion. I know people who kept healthy bettas in a gallon fish tank. Betta spendens, the colorful Bettas from the stores, which are fish that are farmed and domestically developed, they do not exist in the wild in this form. They have been raised and fully acclimated to this type of habitat. The wild species of Bettas need bigger tanks than a 10 gallon. Thats like comparing dogs to wolves.

Nick Lol - 7 years ago

Honestly ikr they need to fuck off

Love for Animals - 7 years ago

At my petsmart, 2.5 gallon tanks and 10 gallon tanks are the same price. Soon I will be getting a betta and hopefully posting a video on it! I love the upgrade!!! ❤️

Kary 2088 - 7 years ago

I just ordered a 40 gallon tank for my betta :)

Theboredguy97 - 7 years ago

Its nice you got him a tank he looks happier.

Paul Gencuski Studios - 7 years ago

You are taking great care of your bettas and if you get mabye a 5 Gallon you can breed your fish

NalaOptimistic - 7 years ago

umm is it OK if my aquarium is the same size as this one for my betta? my parents can only buy this cuz theirs not much space home... :(((

NavyTrix - 7 years ago

TurtleDude 48 Thnx for saying that.. My betta used to live in a fish bowl but i decided to give him a much more bigger home cuz i heard that bowls are a bad thing for betta's.. I think..

Pile Of Crap - 7 years ago

its fine. atleast your giving him a good home :P

NavyTrix - 7 years ago

TurtleDude 48 Fahrenheit*
Also is i used to buy a heater for my tank its a tube like and it just burst. i only set it to umm 8 degress and it gotten hotter and hotter till it burst.. But atleast my betta is not injured cuz he was in a cup before i tested the heater

NavyTrix - 7 years ago

TurtleDude 48 Well it is already summer in my country.. My betta tank is on 2nd floor of my house which is the warmest place at home.. I don't really know how much farenheit is here today but my betta tank's water is kinda warm.. Not to hot and to cold.. Sorry if i do not know on how much farenheit is here..

Pile Of Crap - 7 years ago

That's perfectly fine. Just how warm is it where you live? bettas should have a constant temperature of 25.5° to 26.5 C or 78° and 80° Fahrenheit (its advised you could go slightly higher or lower)and it should never drop below 23.5 C. Just to make sure you know what the nitrogen cycle is, right?

NavyTrix - 7 years ago

TurtleDude 48 Also it has a light..

NavyTrix - 7 years ago

TurtleDude 48 Uhh hi.. I am using my new acc cuz my old acc has some errors... And ye my 2.5 gallon tank for my sweet betta Owen has a filter but no heater cuz the climate on where i live is warm... 4 decorations inside and a white gravel. So i hope my tank does not sound bad..

Pile Of Crap - 7 years ago

NalaOptimistic
2.5 is a great size for one betta. Be glad your not torturing the betta.
And you better have a heater filter and a. Led light.
If you ask me that's all you need.

Paris Jean - 7 years ago

+NalaOptimistic perfectly fine

Kaelynn - 7 years ago

U just got a new subscriber! I'm so happy that you got a new tank. And you saying you saw a behaviour difference makes me 100% solid on getting a 2.5 gallon tank. If any betta owners read this please comment on any advice you have for a new betta owner

Paris Jean - 7 years ago

+Dhamalamadingdong Dracass aww yay! Advise: always have aquarium salt on hand
If you have to get a filter get a sponge filter
Always have a heater
No spikey plants
Hideaways reduce stress
And most importantly give your betta enough space to swim

Flamingchicken - 7 years ago

Great job... Can I keep a betta in a temporary 1.25 gallon tank

Paris Jean - 7 years ago

I don't see why not. I don't find one gallons bad, but if you can get something bigger always aim for that.

MJ Savage - 7 years ago

They have a better home in a 1 gallon tank then in a little cup so haters WTF are wrong with you

khaki91 - 6 years ago

Charlie Yang - 7 years ago

That is like moving an ADULT leopard geckos from a 2 gallon tank to a 5 gallon tank and saying " Well it's a improvement right? "

Pile Of Crap - 7 years ago

nothing is actually wrong with them. they're actually giving you proper information on how to care and keep your betta happy. what your doing is like comparing a boulder with a hole in it with another boulder with a bigger hole in it. OF course its better. but your betta isnt going to be thriving.

Paris Jean - 7 years ago

Mr. Purple you are right. Bettas should not live in cups. But if you can keep a 1 gallon at the right temperature and keep it stable while still having a filter with a small flow and a safe heater it's alright. I don't do it anymore all my bettas are in proper tank sizes but I would never hate on someone who does. I hate myself for doing this to my bettas but I have since changed. Thanks you for the concern

Mr. Purple - 7 years ago

MJ Savage I disagree, extremely. Bettas will not and cannot thrive in a 1 gallon tank. They are unstable, hard to properly heat and filter, generally do not have enough space. A little cup is only temporary, if you can't afford at least a 2.5 gallon as a long term home, you should not be getting a betta.

Paris Jean - 7 years ago

Exactly

Paris Jean - 8 years ago

Katie- Lynn thanks! His fins split in half shortly after this video :( there growing back though. He swam through the hole in the vase and ripped it

DeadlyxXxNightShades - 8 years ago

You should get a filter for this tank and all the fish tanks you own. Also I don't think neon gravel would make your betta happy. It's too bright. I'm glad you're upgrading! Your fish will be very happy.

Paris Jean - 8 years ago

this is a very old video 2/3rds of my tank use black or white sand and have filters

Marc Bigio - 8 years ago

I don't get why people do the bare minimum.

Paris Jean - 8 years ago

+Marc Bigio (Mtech) some people can't afford or don't have room for more. Having the bare minimum isn't bad at all. It wouldn't be the "bare
Minimum" if it wasn't suitable for fish

Nancy Nguyen - 8 years ago

Can't you buy a 10 gallon because they're only 10$ and the. Buy dividers

The Dominus - 7 years ago

In canada, everything here is expensive, so it will be 7x the price

Love for Animals - 7 years ago

Vise Vise wow, over here it's $15 (where I live).

Angie Camacho - 7 years ago

Nancy Nguyen just let her be

Betta Spots - 7 years ago

Nancy Nguyen ten gallons are like mine was a 5 gallon and it was like $25 so that Means that a 10 gallon will be WAY more

Paris Jean - 7 years ago

Dudeonfire25 Pennington haha no worries the dividers are dark green

Dudeonfire25 Pennington - 7 years ago

Nancy Nguyen DON'T GET SEE THROUGH ONES! I can not stress enough why that'd a bad idea. The betas will kill them self trying to kill the other males. I'm sure you know how agresive males are towards each other.

Paris Jean - 8 years ago

+Nancy Nguyen I just got a 5 gallon! I'm divining it into 2

Kenneth Reyes - 8 years ago

Use a tank divider, get 2-3 and put them in a 20 gallon and 4 bettas can fit in each one and live there comforibly. Each betta gets 5 gallons.

Jiggly Wiggly - 7 years ago

Kenneth Reyes females will fight each other if you're not careful. If you are gonna put them together, make sure it's not enough

Kenneth Reyes - 8 years ago

Females can live in a sorority, meaning multiple females can live together in peace.

Kenneth Reyes - 8 years ago

but make sure they are all male tho. If you put a female next to a male they will wanna breed and if they cant they die of stress.

Kato Fnaf - 8 years ago

that a good idea

Kato Fnaf - 8 years ago

Paige - 7 years ago

Gem23 I think he means .5 gallons. I had the same thought but some people start off with very small tanks then upgrade later :)

Gem23 - 7 years ago

Jayden Cool dont you mean from a 2.5 to a 5 gallon

Flameheart FL - 8 years ago

That's awesome! Your fish will be a lot more healthy and active!

Paris Jean - 8 years ago

Tysm! All of my males are in 2.5 gallons and my females are both in 1.5 gallons until I can upgrade them as well!

Ann J - 8 years ago

Good job and beautiful fish!!!!!!

Paris Jean - 8 years ago

Carolinagirl1028 - 8 years ago

Your bettas are going to love the new tanks! You should be very proud of what you are doing and don't listen to anyone who continues to make negative remarks. It takes time to make improvements and you are trying, which is what counts! I am more bothered by those who keep bettas and don't even try to research what they need or do any better by them. I do agree with another commenter that mentioned apple snails needing a bigger tank. I have Nerite snails in 2 of my tanks (6 gallon and 10 gallon divided) and to be completely honest I likely wouldn't even put them in a 2.5 gallon, not that you can't, but be aware that they poop a ton! I find that I have to clean the tank so much more often because I can't stand seeing the poop. Its entirely your choice but I wish I would've researched more before getting one.

Paris Jean - 8 years ago

All the males are now in 2.5 gallon tanks and the females are in 1.5!!! Just upgrades some of them so the video will be out Friday

Paris Jean - 8 years ago

He has fin rot currently :( but he is over 2 yrs old and the Petsmart worker said that the fish (Adele) had been in there store for over a year and they arrive at a year old so Adele is over a year old and has developed a humped back, laziness, and trouble seeing his food. But I got him a 5'gallon and its arriving Friday so hopefully we will see some improvements. He is also being treating

Paris Jean - 8 years ago

Thanks and there is always a treatment of Awuarium salt in the tank at all Times

Lifewithpets - 8 years ago

This is a great video! You've done a wonderful thing for your Betta. Apple/mystery snails ideally need a bigger tank than a 2.5 gallon. They produce a LOT of waste which would cause ammonia. Also if you Betta is on the more aggressive side he would attack an Apple snail as they get quite big. If your Betta is not too aggressive a horned nerite snail would possibly be a better choice. I have them most my Betta tanks. They sell them at Petsmart. They are smaller and your Betta probably wouldn't even notice it! Your Betta looks so happy in his new tank.

Paris Jean - 8 years ago

Thanks this helps a lot

I'm so glad you know how to take care of a betta because whenever I go to the pet store to get a betta I heard someone say "these are the fish that don't need a filter or a heater" and I always get SO frustrated especially because they are SO cheap sometimes so some really dumb people could possibly get a betta and keep it in the little cups they come in also a lot of people don't know that they fight each other if you put them together so they might do that :(

Paris Jean - 8 years ago

Yeah I know I've heard that too and that's why a took care of my Bettas that was, I know now and I'm fixing it
