Millie is the chillest bird. Most cockatiels I have met were shrieking balls of feathered rage.
she sometimes does that hahaha
Putting words in Millie's mouth instead of treats. Smh
true true i'm sleeping in the dog house tonight
@@FishForThoughtchris dont the dog house can only hold a chihuahua
The first pot is actually very good for a guppy as the way it is. Sure it's not "full" of plant to combat the fish waste, but look at the size of that big plant and look at how big the fish poop are (if u can). That massive plant root is basically an oversized filtration already.
Wild guppies are actually in those shallow surfaces like in rice fields and their small canals, with some small floaties and grasses. So it seems fine
As long as the water is clean i don’t see any issue
@@bimbim1885rice fields aren’t that shallow & bettas are known for that, not guppies, unless they’re both rice fish.
Idk honestly I find a lot of my smaller fish love when the water lvl is a bit lower
I think the potted plant tank should have more room for the fish. I do think that they were trying for a thick sand bed, but if it was it was thick!
The pet I love that is out of water is my loud cat.😼
Definitely excessive even for deep bed substrate. Yikes!
yes, probably the main issue is not enough water!
Woohoo!! FTR Monday!! Wishing all who see this an absolutely, positively, radically wonderful week! Get out there and get yer hands wettttt!🙏✨✌️✨
lets gooo!!!
I think the first tank/pot was fine. They did good maintainence!
Absolutely. Deep substrate IS the Filtration plus that BIG plant! Perfect for some mini fish, a betta or some shrimps (with a bit more mulm and algea for the shrimp to eat). Thta said, put a goldfish in and its ruined.
@@luzifersohn5010 Not to mention the GIANT plant that is sucking up all the excess nutrients. Perfectly fine walstad methof for the stocking it had.
@@luzifersohn5010 Betta would love that with how shallow it is, some of those lazy bastards would be in heaven. Some leaf litter at the bottom and it would be perfect.
That pot is honestly OK. The deep sand bed/soil bed is really deep. Lot of good anaerobic conditions for denitrification
i was in the middle of studying for my finals tomorrow but this is more important
Good luck with your finals!
hahaha
good luck!
That first setup has potential if they had a deep water column with more plants like pothos around. Maybe add some water shamrocks and other rhizome plants 🪴
A lizard fish is a tropical sea fish that can move it's spine vertically was well as horizontally. It looks a bit like a lizard. When you catch one and hold on to it. It wind's it's tail in a circle instead of flapping back and forth. You catch them in the florida keys sometimes.
dayum
Poor pet smart employees get a bad wrap. The one I go to has pretty decent fish people. I have personally seen them tell people not to get certain fish and picked up on some clues that the person wasn’t going to properly care for the fish and talked them into reconsidering. Very reassuring.
yeah ppl think 1 bad petsmart means all petsmarts are bad. i used to think this too until i worked in one :)
I was at my local petsmart and was looking for a prixed addition to my empty but well on its way tank. I considered a beta but decided against it because my tank is a colum instead of a long tank. I was told by the fish guy not to worry in fact i should consider a smaller tank because betas preferred them. not so much with the trust in the pet smart fish guy
I feel like they just tell employees to go with it, because it’s harder to explain to people that come in with an idea in their head already. However, if you are a fish person and start talking to them about fish stuff they get super into it. But they’re just made to follow the boss’s orders.
We have a bristlenose pleco too, and she's like over 20 years old which is older than me, and I really really like this fish, she's cool
awe, we have one who is 10 and I had no idea they could live double that!
wow, over 20 years old, that is crazy xD older than my sister too
I think that mini pond was acceptable because of the massive plant growing in the middle, enough filtration
hopefully! but i kinda think it's just rooted and taking nutrients mostly from the soil lol
This hits different now that I am graduated. This channel is following me to my new chapter in my life ❤
Congrats! 🎉
wow congrats on graduating!!!
@@jascemarie33 thank you
@@FishForThought thank you,
As always, a lovely video to start my week with or without Millie!
QOTW: I honestly can't choose one! Love dogs (still miss my Corgi ❤), cats, horses/ponies, aquatic critters! Coolest and weirdest thing I've had that I loved were mice, super shy but so sweet and curious!
I'm partial to rats. My brother bought me mice once for valentine's day and i loved them, though i found rats were more affectionate when it came to being held.
I'll forever miss my childhood through age 20 cat Hershey. He was absolutely the best in personality and I'm glad he chose me, as cats do, as his family favorite. Bawled my ass off the day he had to be put down.
That’s too many choices 😀
qotw: my rabbit, but when my husband and I moved in together the bun decided I was old news and is now glued to his hip at all times.
That pot tank seemed fine to me, but I wish the sand level was lower to give the fish more room.
yes same, lower substrate for more water volume = win
This is hilarious, cause I scrolled through your videos last night for 10 minutes, looking for something about guppies lmao thank you😂❤🎉
nice!
Thanks for making and sharing another great video Chris! Really glad your collar bone is healing well! Monday FTR is turning into a weekly highlight for me :)
woohoo! Hope to see you next monday, and who knows maybe even sooner :D
Great video like always 😊 I started a native fish tank
awesome! native tanks are so cool
The name 'Dennerle' has emphasis on the first syllable and the last 'e' sounds like the other e's. Dennerle has sweet stuff. I'm using their aquasoil and a few other things. They have a whole range of aquarium stuff and they produce a lot of great plants as well.
yeah i've seen how quality their products are! I've just always had a hard time pronouncing but ur explanation helps xD
About a month ago I removed my long fin Betta from my community tank as he wasn’t doing well with the water flow in there. He didn’t look good and his fins were raggedy and short. Put him in a temporary 3 gallon hospital tank and treated him with Betta Fix. Every week he looked better and better and every week lots of fin growth. He is all better now and I went and got a 10 gallon tank for him and some of his snail buddies. Since he is now in a 10 gallon, I placed an order with Aquarium Co-Op for a few additional plants for him. So happy he is doing well. I’ve now added a King Koi Plakat Betta to my community tank and since he is bigger and has short fins, he isn’t bothered by the flow in the tank and is doing great.
Always love FTR Monday's! Great video as always. My favorite pet is our kitten Kimchi. She is scared of my clown fish, which always makes me chuckle.
“Am i even a fishkeeper?” “I’m uninstalling” 😂😂😂
Another Monday made great once more! Heckkkkin Thank you for making such fantastic content!
yay!! ty for tuning in :)
rainbowfish are native to australia and PNG, kinda like our version of tetras, lots of varieties of small fish that vary river to river slightly. and lizardfish are apparently also known as: Saddleback Loach, Gecko Loach, or Orchid Loach.
6:06 just watched a video about those weirdos, the other day. Its a ribbon worm, defending itself against that giant hand, that dares to hold it.
Also the Chibi Cory Jesus had me in tears 🤣
Poor Chirs is afraid of getting replaced by Millie. Thanks for showing us your fish tanks!
np! milly is not good enough host to replace me
I rarely disagree with you, but I believe the plant is more than sufficient for a couple guppies. Terrestrial plants have unlimited access to co2, if that plants grows well (and it looks damn healthy), it can easily handle the bioload and the substrate IS the filter. Plenty of room for bacteria to grow. Pretty OK setup in my eyes. If you compare it directly to your setup (with the floating plants and the pothos), your setup has by far less plantmass for nutrient absoption.
Loved the update on your tanks!! Hope to see more!
I love your ftr and have been watching for almost a year! Happy Monday 🎉 ✌️
wow thx so much! hope to entertain you for another year!
My mom is so supportive I now have like 7 different pond plants she got for free on craigslist and I love her but I don't have pond space. I literally only have space for the water lillies :')
i'd love to get into fishkeeping once i have enough space. And once I get the hang of maintaining water quality and everything else, I want to get two axolotls :)
Out of my three fish tanks, one 24 yo cockatiel, five cats and one dog, my dog is still my favorite. He's gone through a lot health wise but he's still a lovable goofus.
My favorite pet will have to be my red devil, Nikki.
He's a lot work to maintain, takes up a lot of space, and likes to bite when he's in a mood, but he's super cute, thrives on attention, and does have his playful moments where he plays tag (will bump my hand with his nose when I'm digging in the tank, then he'll swim away really fast, and I'll boop his tail, and he'll come back and bump my hand again)
QOTW: We have a family cockatiel who is 24 years old. Watching Millie always puts a smile on my face.
QOTW: My favorite pet is the reptilian overlord that I keep in this 40 breeder tank. I call him Kodos. I feed him unattended children left in the LFS. That's what they get for tapping the glass. Business are not your free babysitters, people.
wow kodos, what a grand-sounding name!
I love all your animals especially Millie I watch all your vids you make my day 😊love ❤from London uk 🇬🇧🐡🐠🐟🐈❤❤
Old viewer returning and I went to visit Petscord for a look and wow. Brought a tear to my eye
My favorite pet would be my iridescent shark catfish I have for eight years now and still growing in his new pond ❤
wow!!! that sounds awesome for your big fish :) 8 years that's crazy
The 4 feet tank guy deserves a 5/5
I suggest something cool for your new tank like a giant betta, killifish, or some mud skipper's (if it's big enough) 😅❤
Love your content you should totally do some bird cage reviews as well! I own a bird and would love to see more bird content on RUclips.
I like how we got asked what you are going to stock your river tank with after you released the video of stocking your river tank. Is this a test to see who watches more than just FTRs?
The Synodontidae or lizardfishes are benthic marine and estuarine bony fishes that belong to the aulopiform fish order, a diverse group of marine ray-finned fish consisting of some 15 extant and several prehistoric families. They are found in tropical and subtropical marine waters throughout the world.
The banded rainbowfish, also known as the Jewel rainbowfish, Goyder River rainbowfish, three-striped sunfish or regal rainbowfish, is a species of Rainbowfish found in the northerly regions of North Australia and Queensland.
Ty for update😊
qotw- you have no idea what you're asking because in my house, it kinda rotates depending on who I am the maddest at. My all-time favorite dog was a really chill long-haired Chihuaha. He was the first dog I ever got as a grownup and it's been almost 4 years but I still miss that dude constantly.
My favorite fish in general are bettas, but I'm really into my panda garra. Another one with a huuuuge personality :) she likes to sleep in those floating betta logs, anytime it gets stuck under the water filter flow. I didn't recognize it til like the 5th time she'd done it, because I was busy being concerned that the betta thing was stuck and the betta couldn't use it. I finally realized it was now her territory and to leave it the f alone, thanks.
My current favorite cat is a new addition. Last Monday, I'm listening to an audiobook on my phone as I'm turning on my car. I hear a very frantic MEOW, so I turn everything back off and just listen for a bit. I go back inside, do a headcount of my cats. I come outside, look around the house to make sure there wasn't a cat stranded on my roof-- nothing. So I turn my car on, and immediate frantic tiny meows. It took almost 4 hours to get her out of my damn engine, but somehow she was completely uninjured and fine. She's too young for her first shots, but thankfully old enough to eat food. It was an irritating, very hot day, and I spent so much of it hysterical that I might have hurt a kitten...She's just going to have to deal with being fussed over and fed nonstop for awhile. I have no idea how I heard those meows over my book, and over my car engine starting, but I'm so very grateful I did.
Chris:millie has a soft spot for guppy's. Millie be like: yeah I have a soft spot for them in my stomach.
oh my-
1:21 I think there's a need to be deeper water and some floating plant. that big of a plant is likely enough to remove most nitate/ammonia from water from small amount of guppies. Extra aeration isn't necessary unless there's not enough surface area for oxygen exchange
As much as I love fish (& all my pets) I gotta hand it to the kitties
Yea I have a similar set up for the pot. But mine is a 30 gallon pot with a gravel/sand substrate at the bottom and I used plastic planter with holes in them that the fish can swim thought to make a tower that my potted plants sit on top of. Also lots of water lettuce and still a small filter. First video not enough space. P.s I keep minnows because they don't get enough love lol.
yes minnows need all the love
Awesome overload!!!
Honestly bristlenose are probably my absolute favorite fish, hope to one get one for my 40 breeder some day
Won’t matter to me if they’re male or female, black or gold, just as long as they’re healthy
(Also don’t worry about that gourami, I saw their long ventral find and that and the shape of their fins and body suggests to me they’re a female dwarf gourami)
As for for my answer to the question, my cat Shadow. I am most definitely a cat person, I’ve loved all my kitties, and currently Shadow’s the only one we have left
He used to be real shy but after becoming an only cat he became as loving (and demanding!) as his mom and brother, and is very much bonded to me, always lying on my bed… cats are definitely the best pets for me
yesss bristlenose is so GOATED
Also I feel you on not keeping plants with tamago . I thought I could keep my plants with my moonlight gourami (she was a rescue) if I gave her some Indian fern and water sprite...oh I was so wrong hahah I gave her to someone else 😅 miss her.. though it's nice having healthy plants again
lmao same xD i got some pothos up top now, i had to protect it by putting it in a stationary holder tho
I think its fine how it is because the deep substrate consumes nitrates because of the anaerobic bacteria that can live in the low oxygen environment and emersed plants filter the water 10 times better then underwater grown plants and with such a huge plant its probably filtering the water really well, that being said they could have left a bit more room for water and still had the nice deep substrate if they didn't fill it up so much.
I love this quality content I believe it's underrated
I can't have fish tanks, so I live vicariously through FFT.
My favorite pet is Einstein, he saved my life more then once he is my corgi service dog. We are about to buy a house and therefore I will not be limited on the size of the tank, it will be my first tank over 10 gallon. I am so excited. It is going to be a dirted tank.
Filterless works without too much issues with big fish and no plants. If there are issues with anything nitrogen related, your tank will be full with algae and green bacteria. But it can also run clean and gobble any nitrogen up beyond measurable levels without plants.
I love my Senegal Parrot, Keith. I love him so much that I grow plants for him to perch on and/or eat, and I'm soon getting a 110 gallon pond with fish to grow some of them in
senegal parrots are so awesome!
Nothing beats watching FTR and eating spicy noodles 🍜
QOTW: my favourite pets are always the ones that are absolute pricks for the heck of it and at the same time, they're fully aware of how cute they are and they're not afraid to use it against you. 😂 For example, I used to have 2 oscars and one of them kept jumping up and biting me during every. Single. Feeding time. Obviously, he was my favourite 😅 also my cat, Harlem (I have 3 cats), who screams in my face and smacks me with his paw every single morning, at exactly 6 AM, because he's obviously starving.
lmao ur cat is ur alarm clock xD
I've always wanted a kuhli loach and I bought my first one, a black kuhli named loachey about 4 years ago. He's still going strong and working as natural selection in my tank 😅
Kuhlis dont eat snails and shrimp though right, what are they selecting? ive got 13, super chill guys. They reallyneed to be kept in groups i cannot recommend it enough!
@@regant7064 he only eats the fry and baby shrimp. Whatever he can fit into his mouth
I'm glad Milly's back can't wait till next Monday for the next one
yay :) hope to see u in the next ojne!
QOTW: Have a common snapping turtle, a deer mouse, a cat, three horses and a husband. Love them all ❤. Dreaming of pea puffers someday. Or maybe bristle nose plecos
awesome stuff!
def get those pea puffers!!!
I WAS suppose to head to bed, but when i see notif from chairs, i click.
i think a lizard fish is a red whiptail catfish, im not sure tho coz online it shows some streched out piranha thing that lives in saltwater but thats a freshwater aquarium.
my favorite pet is my senior cat, henry, i love all my other pets but he’s just been my buddy for so long
My favorite is my dog Nala. She’s a 4 yo Belgium Malinois shepherd. I tell her she’s my favorite child lol. Currently going through puppy stage with a 5 month old mal so I appreciate her that much more. My kitty is just ok… hoping to get a hamster this summer.
Me: thinking about an employee coming back that left on a bad note possibly coming back to work and thinking "time heals all wounds."
Chirs two minutes later sayint "time heals all wounds."
Lol. You said "the hand of a skeleton". 😆
I got some white cloud minnows!! They are the cutest (and legal to have where I'm located)
My first Monday seeing it new! Lucky me!
wow!! lets gooo :)
QOTW: Hard question! I only have one pet right now, a paint mare I raised from birth. She's basically a 1,000 lb lap dog. lol But I love all pets! Dogs especially, but also cats, bunnies, ferrets, birds, fish, reptiles, goats, pigs... I've even made friends with a zebra and a camel! (The zebra loved kisses ❤) My dream is to have my own little menagerie someday.
Dwarf gourami females are very hard to find, and I've never seen one in person. The more colorful males are usually all you see. Also, lizard fish might refer to a whiptail or farlowella catfish, a twiglike South American catfish.
Oh wow, I had never heard of a freshwater lizard fish * Synodontidae *, but google says "they are an elongated with rounded bodies and scaly heads. They grow to a maximum length of about 50 centimetres (20 inches) and are characteristically mottled or blotched to blend with their surroundings. Most lizardfish live in shallow water.
I like Apalache's enclosure super natural 5/5 nice 😮😮😮😊😊
My favorite pet in the fish room would probably be the scuds and orange isopods colony. So small and crustaceous. Love me some crusty pets😩
such a unique fave pet!
I remember breaking my collarbone, 0/10 wouldn't recommend. Mine didn't heal properly tho hope yours does Chris God bless
A Goyder River rainbowfish is a rainbowfish, right, from Goyder River, Northern Territory, Australia.
There are many, many varieties of rainbowfish in Australia where the colour morph is unique to the river or stream where they are found.
Goyder River rainbowfish are some of the most striking and colourful rainbowfish in the hobby for my eye.
Oddly enough, Australian rainbowfish are far more commonly available to North American fish keepers than they are to Australian fish keepers. (I say as an Aussie)
I finished my last test redo at school, and now im done with school.
Im doing homeschooling now, but it was still weird leaving a school zone for the last time.
Also fun fact, Mystery and Apple snails are not the same! Apple snails are actually illegal. People tend to get them confused because they look similar. :v
The lizardfish is probably like a whiptail catfish tbh and the rainbow goiter fish is probably a type of rainbowfish or guppy
hopefully in the next few months I will get my next tank set up and on ftr. btw great video as always
yay!!
This is why Mondays are better the most days of the week
Sun day: 😊😊😊😊 Monday :remembed you needed to do a water change 4weeks ago 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢.
Love to start my week with FTR!
ayyy tyty for tuning in!
Chris u better still be around in 10 years so I can submit my fish tanks and keep my sanity
i would realy like some tropical shrip! we don't have them here in nz. also elefant noise fish.
I love it how u rate the food on your food channel higher than most fish tanks. 😂😥
I definitely think the little pot pond at the beginning should be deeper/filled with more water and more plants should be added. I'm in the process right now of making a little pot pond myself and it's going to get planted with a dwarf liliy, a sword plant, a Hygrophillia, some hornwort, and salivinia as some floaters. I'm thinking that at least initially it'll just be filled with decorative plants and just be a water garden. I am trying to fogure out how to put in a little sponge filter as well or at least a solar powered fountain to add water movementand oxygen exchange. However I'd like at some point to put maybe 3 to 5 Medaka rice fish in it! I think it's all about making sure that if you put in fish, that the environment will support them.
hopefully the pot will grow out those plants too!
@Fish For Thought I think it will! I got them from one of the gentleman in the local aquarium club I joined and I specifically asked if they would do well in a pot pond. He's very knowledgeable about aquatic plants!
QOTW: I love all my fish, but my cat is my favourite. I've had him the longest, and I find it easier to get attached to creatures I can interact with more
Guppies need room, but as for depth? I'd go, maybe 20cm (about 8 inch) max?
That thick substrate might probably one of the most ingenius things I've seen. Along with the plants, the natural filtration must be insane and natural food (micro and macro fauna) that is able to grow there must be insane.
Just to be very clear, I'd pick a wide pot and do the same thing (repeat water depth about 8 inch and fill the rest with sand and dirt and minerals)
hey chris i had a short weird dream with you in it last night. you came to my house, showed me how to put a cable in a cable protector thing, then left 🤨😅
6:05 Bukkakémon: you gotta catch'em all.
at the same time
That thumbnail..😅😂😂
You should make a video of reviewing cheap aquarium things like filters and that stuff from aliexpress
That middle plant is so huge even with the fish they definitely have to add nutrients to even if they tried to put other plants in there they probably wouldn't grow just because that middle one eats up so much nutrients
chris never fails to make a good video
aw ty!
8:54 I think what would like amazing in the tank is Kubotai Rasboras!
Very cute cockatiel on your shoulder
for the guppy I see no problem going in thailand everywhere there is a kind of pot with 1 plant and small fish inside like guppy Platies molly
