Nathan Stark

Ok... But why did they use Beta Water, then a dechlorinator? BetaWater (which is a complete rip-off) is already dechlorinated. It's way cheaper and the same thing to just use dechloinator with tap water.

Not to mention a bunch of other information they left out that's very important. If you are looking for a good guide of how to keep a Betta, please reference a few other videos.

how are these guys that are "professionals" give bad information. first the betta tank. it was a good tank size and the stuff that came with it fidnt seem too bad. The betta water though is complete nonsense. just use tap water and normal water conditioner. don't spend ur money on junk like that. next the salt water. using live sand rock is a good choice rather than fake stuff. next water conditioner is not needed. use ro/di water. You can buy the water at pet stores or buy systems. He didn't mention anything about water testing kits that are needed to make sure the fish aren't dying from ph levels going crazy or something. also don't add any fish to a tank right away. let the tank cycle for a very long time. like a months or 2. please don't kill ur fish

Hi guys i got 4 frotosas what size tank shut i have them in they are in a 45gl and they are about 3ech each one they take long to grow but they cut eat a alot slt then a minet nice blue purpul in color with very beautiful long White fiend .
Petco
Petco - 6 years ago
Hi Reinaldo. The frontosa African cichlid is recommended to have a 70 gallon tank minimum, so as they grow you will need to upgrade. These cichlids are semi-aggressive fish, so you want them to have plenty of space to move around and décor for them to hide. If you are interested in having any other fish in the future in the tank, you will need to be very care as there are very few other species that are compatible to live with cichlids (http://www.liveaquaria.com/general/fwcompatibility_chart.cfm). We hope this helps!

Flupple Wott
Flupple Wott - 6 years ago
Don't use the Betta water, it's not worth the price because you will be spending multiple bottles a week doing water changes. Instead, use water purifying drops to almost instantly purify tap water. You can easily find them at Petco or any aquatics store. If you've got the time, you can also sit out water in a large bowl to dechlorinate, it usually takes 24 hours. Happy fish keeping!

wow great video, would you have any suggestions for me. I bought a barrel looking plastic container from Costco and would like to have it outside with some aquatic plants and fish but not sure if I need a substrate, most other videos just put the plant on top of a brick or rocks. Do I need the chemicals you mentioned in this video ?. I live in Los Angeles California. thank you.
Petco
Petco - 6 years ago
Hi Jose. Thank you for your question; first, you should make sure the barrel you purchased will be stable enough to hold the water for the aquarium. Each gallon of water weighs about 8 pounds, so the plastic has to be strong. Next, if it is going to be outside it should not be in direct sunlight as it can cause algae growth and fish stress. You also need to select fish and plants that are appropriate for an outside tank, or if it is on a porch or somewhere that is more controlled just ensure the tank will not have any severe temperature fluctuations. Substrate is generally recommended as it is usually cultured and becomes a biological filter for the tank and helps the nitrogen cycle. If you don’t use substrate, you have to make sure to have an alternative biological filter in the system. Beyond that, you'll need to make sure you set the tank up with a heater (depending on fish species), treat the water, let it cycle, select a few hearty fish to add first, and get the nitrogen cycle flowing before adding more fish (you can get free water tests in our stores.) You'll want to make sure you have appropriate filtration and aeration as needed, and select compatible fish and vegetation. Good luck!

Adding water conditioner isn't going to "jump start" your aquarium. In two weeks you're going to have a massive ammonia spike, tons of headaches & dead fish. These sellouts don't know what they are doing. There's no way to grow enough beneficial bacteria in 10 minutes, you're just abusing your fish for a setup that looks artificial and tacky af.

Cycling is referring to the Nitrogen Cycle, not letting your tank sit for 24-48 Hours. All that does is remove the chlorine from tap water, which helps, but isn't the end of starting your tank. Cycling refers to establishing a Beneficial Bacteria in your filter which can convert the toxin ammonia into the toxin nitrite which can be converted into less-toxic nitrate. There are many ways to cycle your tank, I recommend fish-less cycling. Personally, I believe that fish-in is quite cruel and should never be done.

This whole process can take anywhere from 2 Weeks to 6 Weeks. Patience is key when owning fish; it's not as simple as you think.

Dear beginners to the hobby,
Don't mean to be a rant, But, I have a few problems with this video.
Keep in mind, a lot of information in this video makes sense like the heating and lighting.

1st, The 4 Gallon. The "Betta water" is NOT necessary and you would be fine with just tap water and conditioner.
Also Betta fish CAN live in 1 gallon tanks and be happy. The freshwater community thinks it's there "duty" producing false information. As long as you got a cycled tank, and a filter, your fine.

2nd, Gravel is fine to cycle your tank but will take around a month wait to add fish. And the Decorations "it looks real"...
Don't go with artificial decorations, Real driftwood is extremely healthy for freshwater tanks. It is worth paying the small $5-$10 more. The Colony they advertise is bacteria your tank needs to cycle waist, it is a myth that this can be done "instantly". It takes time for it to build up, a month without bacteria, and 2 weeks with the bacteria. Still a necessary buy if you want to add fish immediately. Just test your ammonia and if it looks bad, do a water change. Repeat till the water is at a constant 0ppm and you will be fine.

3rd, The 37 Gallon Saltwater.. This is the hard side of the hobby and is no easy chore. They surprised me with this one.
Live sand and Live Rock is VERY good for cycling an aquarium. Live Sand isn't 100% necessary, but I buy it myself because
I personally really like the feel of it. (Dead sand will become live sand in a few weeks) Live Rock is really good! Thanks for
advertising this PetCo, people really do need this. Then we get to the canister... Unless you are going to clean it everyday,
the canister will become a Nitrate factory. Eventually leading to the death of your fish. Keep in mind, live sand and live rock
will be perfectly fine bio filtering your tank, just as long as you do a 20% water change a week. The best and only real way to
filter your aquarium is to buy a sump and buy RO/DI (really clean) water from your fish store or buying a system online.
Saltwater Aquariums can be very expensive and there is no way around it. And the steps to making one is no 1,2,3.

*This wasn't in the video, But I noticed a yellow tang in a 37 tank. Yellow tangs need 100-120 Gallons MINIMUM.
That poor fish probably wants to kill itself. And it will if your tank does't have a hood. :(

ALL< The fish in these takes will not last long. They over simplified the hobby and missed a lot of important details.

Please take your time to research your fish, and good luck!

No! The minimum for a betta is 2.5 gallons!
I suggest bigger but not everyone ca do bigger .
2.5 can have a good healthy cycled bacteria . A one gallon cannot !!! No good bacteria can thrive in a one gallon

Flupple Wott - 6 years ago
I don't think they did anything wrong by putting the Betta in a four gallon, mine is in a standard 10 gallon. They're easier to maintain proper conditions than in vases. also couldn't agree more with the Betta water! $2 for a bottle? that's ridiculous!

Hey! Just a few tips you need to know that PetCo will never tell you.

1. Cycle your tank. You need real plants. If you don't want to wait, add Colony like it says in the video.
2. Water change 20% every 2 weeks.
3. Make a hiding place.
4. Feed him/her will and don't place 2 in the same tank.
5. Make sure your tank isn't to big, betta fish prefer smaller tanks.
(1-5gal is perfect) This is the biggest debate about Betta fish and most
people who claim 1 gallon is bad, with good filtration, its the best.
6. Use the least chemicals you can.

Follow these steps and your betta will live a ridiculously long time.

I currently have a single male betta fish and after my 37 gallon tank is clear I am considering making it into a betta tank for mostly females. My male has never been exposed to other fish, if I get plenty of decor to create nice hiding spaces, do you think he would get along with about 4 or five females?

I would get a smaller aquarium, and use the 37 for something else.

How can u tell the temp on that heater? And when do u know when it's on! I have the same one and all my fish keep dying
Petco
Petco - 8 years ago
+THEMARK OFJ . Hi there. Since we're not sure the specifics of your tank, its hard to say. The general rule of thumb is having a heater that is 3 to 5 watts per gallon (i.e., a 50 watt heater for a 10 gallon tank). You should always have a thermometer placed at the opposite end of the tank from your heater. Most people generally try to keep their tank around 76 – 78 degrees, but it can vary by species (i.e., goldfish like colder water, so they do not require a heater, whereas discus like warmer water and prefer temperatures between 79 – 86 degrees). If you'd like to email us at PTPsupport@petco.com, we'd be happy to discuss this with you further. We hope this helps!

+G Smith idiot bettas live in huge areas in the wild. You're just cheap.
Mesozoquatic
Mesozoquatic - 7 years ago
+G Smith It's a myth that bettas live in small puddles in the wild. They actually live in rice paddies, swamps, and larger ponds. The water they live in is shallow but it is still expansive. The bare minimum for a betta should be 2.5 gallons, and even that is pushing it. A five gallon aquarium is a much better minimum and honestly should not cost that much more than a 1 gallon. It is also a myth that bettas are uncomfortable in a larger tank. I have kept bettas in 20 gallon tanks and many people keep them in larger.
G Smith
G Smith - 8 years ago
+Shibe Inu Lol, fish are a lot different than people. Also, i'm not saying 1 gallon is good for ANY fish. Most fish, a 10 gallon tank is borderline torture. Betta is an exception because they aren't like other fish. It doesn't take long to research 1 fish.
People who are saying 1 gallon is killing their bettas, usually have no bio filters, never change water (100% every other day as it's to small to establish a cycle), and give there fish MINIMAL attention. It would be hard keeping a betta in 1 gallon, but it's possible and the betta would be fine.
Shibe Inu
Shibe Inu - 8 years ago
+G Smith That's not the issue. You could put a person in a 6ft x 6ft room and they would be totally fine and could probably live a full life. It would be uncomfortable but it's liveable so it's fine right?
G Smith
G Smith - 8 years ago
+Shibe Inu Betta fish aren't normal fish. In fact, they unique ability to breathe oxygen directly from the air. So they can survive outside water for a short period of time. There natural habitat are small ponds and puddles. Google: "betta fish natural habbitat"

So you set that saltwater tank up in what...probably 10 minutes?

For anyone looking to setup a healthy long term marine tank, it's not a good idea to listen to 90% of what you just heard. There are some great authors like Julian Sprung among others who have demystified marine tanks, bringing the knowledge of the ultimate hobby to the forefront of knowledge. Don't be fooled by these TV personalities, because for them...telling people that tanks take a long time to mature and become stable would be couter-productive to their episode making machine of a company who specializes in short term quick setups that are sure to be money pits and death traps for the unlucky animals.

Amélia Fagundes
Amélia Fagundes - 9 years ago
I liked this video, and here's why: as a biologist, I can say that I don't trust pet stores' setups, as every one I've seem until the moment was much too small for the animal housed in it, or it was overcrowded. The first thing I liked about this video was the placement recommendations. I'm glad to see someone actually caring for it, Though to be fair I have to say they were plain hypocrite when saying to put your aquarium far from sunlight, when some of their tanks (including saltwater tanks) are positioned in direct sunlight. Also their tip about weight. 100% useful! Congratulations, that tip might help many children who are thinking about where to put a fish tank! Other thing that impressed me was the betta fish tank. It was small, but better than many 1 gallon or 2 gallon tanks that I've seem bettas into. Unfortunately I can't say the same about betta living space in your store, considering the fish are stuck into small plastic containers, and since you sell fish bowls, many end up there. I'm glad you've shown that a 4 gallon looks beautiful, maybe that will make people buy bigger tanks instead. The betta fish tank setup is good. The substrate choice was beautifully thought to go with the other decorations, and with the vivid colors of the fish. Bettas don't like to hide as much as other fish, so a cave wasn't really needed. I would have added a few more plants, but that's only esthetic. Not to mention the heater. Finally someone notices that bettas, just like any other fish, deserve proper temperature. Also, the filter. A filter is incredibly important to all kinds of fish, and many people don't add a filter to betta fish tanks, which is bad. The lightning is good enough. Thank you for the amazing addition, fish will be much happier and live longer now, the benefits can be even bigger due to the conditioning of the water! For the 25 gallon tank... All I can say is it is overstocked. Not that those guys would know, as most of their tanks are overstocked. They must think overstocking it's beautiful. Well, the gravel is a good choice, the plants were beautiful and the driftwood is an amazing thing to have in a somewhat large aquarium (hey, that's a good idea to make people buy bigger tanks, isn't it? More space to add decor!). Once again, good job on the filtration, the temperature setting and water conditioning! The lightning was great as well! Now for the 37 gallon saltwater tank. Great choice in substrate and decor, though the rocks alone took a whole lot of space, but made an interesting and relatively cheap setup. Awesome lighting for this tank! And congratulations for the filter, water conditioning and temperature setting once again! Overall, great video. Keep it up!

I would love to have seen them address cycling a tank, it is critical that all aquarium owners understand the importance of the nitrogen cycle, as well as how it works. A failure to understand the nitrogen cycle usually leads to dead fish.

To anyone interested in getting into the fish keeping hobby, join a fishkeeping forum. Ask questions there. These videos are all well and good, but it is important to get advice from people who are not trying to make money from you.

I believe the "Betta water" is not necessary at all. Fill your tank with regular tap water and use a water conditioner from a pet store. It's about $5-$10 for a decent bottle. Follow the directions on the bottle. After filled, turn your heater on, make sure it's the right temp, turn your filter on and turn your light on during the day. Let your tank do what's called a fishless cycle for a week or 2 before putting any fish in. A fishless cycle is running the tank (filter, heater, 10-12hrs of light a day) before you put fish in it, letting the bacteria build up a little bit. When you first get your tank set-up you will mostly likely have a small algae problem. After a month or 2, it should go away.  http://www.aquaticcommunity.com/aquariumforum/  This is a forum I'm a member of. I've been on many different forums and this one is the best I've seen! Very helpful! Very Friendly! If you plan on pursuing the hobby at all, you'll definitely want to join!

with a carbon base supplement such as vodka dosing or bio pellets you can cycle your tank in a few days. I have done it before in warmer water temp around 80 degrees with a dead liverock.

Dechlorinator for a salt water tank?? That means you are NOT using reverse osmosis water.... that is a HUGE mistake. You want to talk algae problems, then go ahead and use tap water. And where the 'healthy' pets go? Really? Have you even been to the marine section at a Petco? They are lucky if they can keep clowns alive for a week!

INFAMOUS112100 - 10 years ago
some of the stuff you said really isnt needed some of them are extra's just so people spend more money like the betta water if your filling up a four gallon tank by the quarter gallon bottles you just spent and extra say like 25 to 35 dollars probably just use your tap even better if you have a well not city water like me you wont have to use dechlorination and also while im here i recommend not using alegeside and stuff like that its just not the best thing for you fish i only use stress zyme and stress coat in my tanks nothing else because i have well water and i have about 25 african cichlids and they are all healthy as can be with very vibrant colors

MirorBeeGaming

RODI or distilled water only. Tap contains heavy metals which cannot be taken out directly. Phosphates and nitrates are the biggest issue as it feeds algae causing algae blooms. If you test your tap for nitrates via digital devices you'll see them in there.

Hi, I have a 46gallon bowl front tank.. Want to set it up for salt water reef.. Now I've seen that some people say you have to have the skimmers and the over flow filters with the bio balls.. But some say you don't as long as you maintain it and have proper water filtration and movement.. If that's true I was thinking of using 2 penguin 350s with dual carbon filters on each. On one side with the other with the little white stone things.. Sorry forgot name.. & two power heads,would that work?

3. Tangs do require a bigger tank, but this was set up as a demonstration not as the what you should really do. I agree this kind of thing confuses people and they should know better. I do find people over exaggerate the tank size that Tangs need. A study was done to test the stress on fish and tank size. They found that fish in one tank was no more stressed than another. What I am saying is Size matters but not the HUGE size most people in the Tang Police say.
Miles Sharpless
Miles Sharpless - 10 years ago
@Connor Bryan 1. The cycle process is three to six weeks, depending. They colony they added does help jump start the tank and does help prevent ammonia spike which can kill the fish. I used a bottled Bactria and no fish died in my tank and it's a year old. 2. Canister Filters only become Nitrite factories when people do not CLEAN THEM! I clean mine once a week and no problem with Nitrates. Been a year! Keeps my water crystal clear!

shechshire
shechshire - 10 years ago
Umm.... sure, lol, the point is that the surfaces in the sump are a breading ground for autotrophic bacteria. Back when the sump was invented their wasn't any other kind of filtration except bacterial & since sw was scarce. so in order to make your hundreds of dollars full proof they needed to add even more bacterial filtration other then just the surfaces in side & that when the sump came in to the rescue. Well, yeah I mean you don't need a sump... a protein skimmer would be enough alone.
Venomous Fire
Venomous Fire - 10 years ago
sorry to tell you this, but nobody uses bioballs or gravel in there saltwater sump. look at newyorksteelos system he hasn't down a water change in over a year and he has sps coral.
shechshire
shechshire - 10 years ago
... UV lights etc etc etc are all commercial equipment used in commercial settings like water treatment facilities or local commercial aquariums. In these cases it's a lot more practical because your talk'n about 1000's upon 1000's of gallons of water to maintain but in a home aquarium it' really not needed. They do make a killing out of it from people buying it though. Me personally I couldn't goo any further than just an in tank skimmer.
shechshire
shechshire - 10 years ago
... they are consuming so you can either make a water change (optional w/ protein skim) or add in liquid form so you can replenish the trace elements otherwise they'll die. Again, my main point is that these equipments are very expensive & for some that are on a budget, it's ridiculous to have to spend $100+ on a filtration system for a tank no bigger than a 100g. I mean you can, I'm just saying... Is it really that necessary? The answer is no. Most people don't realize that reactors, skimmers..
shechshire
shechshire - 10 years ago
Simply not true... Unless you you don't clean it out for over a month. Actually a sump is a separate tank were you can house the biological filtration of an aquarium (bio-balls, live gravel-old school, or live rock). While yeah, it's true that you can use it to house or conceal other equipment, that's besides it's original purpose. I bet it does & don't doubt you for a second. Even then you'ed still have to consider how many corals you have in the tank & how much of the trace elements they are..
Venomous Fire
Venomous Fire - 10 years ago

Venomous Fire
Venomous Fire - 10 years ago
A hang on back filter is full of mechanical filter pads which create excess nitrate. Most sumps work like this, Skimmer, Refugium, media reactor and then return pump. the two are completely different. btw I haven't down a water change to my 30 gallon in 5 moths and I have it full of coral and it looks great. Alot of people don't even need to do water changes because they have good filtration. my nitrates are at 0. that is because I have a skimmer and a dsb.
shechshire
shechshire - 10 years ago
.... & water changes could simply be done bi-weekly which would make a protein skimmer unnecessary. You'ed have to make a water change at least once a moth anyways even with a protein skimmer if you have a reef tank. I really wouldn't recommend a protein skimmer unless you have a 100+ gallon reef tank. People get nitrate & algae problems due to a lack of water changes & sometimes in cases when they use tap water.
shechshire
shechshire - 10 years ago
I actually never said that you said those things. I'm afraid you have some of your info mixed up. The I reason mention hang on the back or sumps is because those are surfaces were nitrifying bacteria can multiply the most in. You mentioned that hang on the backs are a nitrite factory & I was trying to explain that sumps in essence do the same thing but either one isn't going to produce a nitrate problem unless you don't do any water changes. Protein skimmers can be very expensive &...
Venomous Fire
Venomous Fire - 10 years ago
I didn't say that having more surface area for bacteria will create nitrate issues i'm just saying that to many people make a set up like the one shown in the video and then complain about algae and nitrates. I highly recommend a protein skimmer because unless if you have a refugium, dsb, or protien skimmer there is no way to get nitrates out of the tank other than frequent water changes and nuisance algae, and nobody wants that.
shechshire
shechshire - 10 years ago
Nope... I'm pretty sure that's what a sump was invented for lol... I mean, they didn't have home protein skimmers back in the 80's when the sump was first invented. You said "should get a protein skimmer" which again is really not a matter of "should". My point was that the bacteria that produce that nitrate exist in the tank, hang on the back, & most of all the sump. So, having it won't do anything to you're nitrate levels. Over time dsb will become live & will cycle just fyi.
Venomous Fire
Venomous Fire - 10 years ago
The point of a sump is to hide big equipment like protein skimmers and refugiums. not as a surface ground for bacteria. I siad that you should have a protein skimmer because it makes owning a SW tank much easier. btw live sand can take care of ammonia and nitrite, but unless if it is a dsb it won't do any thing for nitrate.

P2... environment. While yeah putting a large fish in small space will eventually stress it to death, putting a juvenile in a reasonable amount of water like at least 35ish or close to the fish max size wont really result in any major long term stress except stunt growth & perhaps life to trivial amounts. In any case though putting any animal in an inclosed space will add some stress no matter what.
shechshire
shechshire - 10 years ago
P1 Their's more ways than one to do something. 1. Live sand already carries enough bacteria that will take care of ammonia, nitrite, & nitrate so that way you can at the very least have one fish without getting spikes. 2. Protein skimmers aren't a requirement. Bacteria will multiply in any place of the tank hang-on-the-back filter or not. What do you think a sump does? Exactly. 3. Yea I know, that tang looks like it has ick & stressed. It's fish not a dog. Fish tend to grow to the size of their

As an experienced reefer I appreciate your will to go bigger and more beautiful, but I don't believe that saltwater tank is properly setup. 1.I think you should have gone more in dept in the cycle process as it is a key factor in all saltwater tanks. 2.Canister filters are not good for a salt water tank, they become a nitrite factory easily. You should use a protein skimmer. 3. all the fish in that saltwater tank look like they have a decease and you should not keep a tang in a tank that size.
