I am 100% proud of you for doing absolutely everything right starting up your betta tank! Heater-check! Water treatment-check! 5 gallons-check! Hidey spot-check! Bacteria to start cycle-check! Ammonia test before adding fish-check! Temperature acclimate-check! Lid-check! Gentle water flow-check! Feed small amount-check! Great job!
Thank you, I really tried my best! This made me feel so good 🙌🏼
Cool!
@@imgriffjohnson Yess you did perfect!!!!
Lmao it takes a 2 second google search to find out how to do this.. I’d hope he could do the bare basics if he’s trying to do a fish page 😂
@@spencer2703 yep, but go check out the crappy job his friend Paul did setting up a betta tank. The info is available, but will people follow it? Mostly no. Most pet stores will happily sell a fish bowl with a betta. I’m always glad to see newbies making the effort to do things right and present good examples.
I have had several betta fish. For about 3 years I had a male betta in a 5 Gallon next to a 20 gallon with a huge topper for 2 gerbils. The Betta would dance and react to the sweet gerbils antics. Betta will always have a special place in my heart. They can live to up to 5 years if kept properly and can be very outgoing and wonderful to watch and interact with. Thanks for actually researching and informing people.
That is amazing!! I am in love with this little guy.
@@imgriffjohnson awe so cool!
Welcome to the Hobby! I know Paul and Nick are stoked
I am already addicted 😂
@@imgriffjohnson i just picked up $200+ in free fish supplies, it’s a great hobby
1. You should set the heater to 80 cuz 70 is to cold for betta’s.
2.take the big fake plant out it’s to sharp for the betta.
But overall it’s great❤
Thank you for the tip.. I want to get real plants soon. I have the water at 78 🙏🏼
I recommend to take that big center plant out, the main reason bettas need a bigger tank is for food to swim, maybe just a few smaller ones in the side
Thank you for the advice 🙏🏼 I am going to swap it out for some small but real plants
I love the betta tank! You did well to do your research first. Research never ends, nor can you do too much. It makes me happy to see your new journey into fish keeping! Such a fun and rewarding hobby. I'd call the new betta "Genesis", as he is litterly the beginning for you.
Yess! First tank! I am so happy for you! You should name him, JAWS!!! I think it would be a cool name. He is a beautiful fish!!! Love your videos!!!!
Great video man! Even though it's a small tank it looks real nice. You start off small but the passion for it will grow and before you know it you will have a whole 1000 g saltwater aquarium 🤣 and we will be looking forward to that as well!
Thank you.. I am already addicted 😂
Tank looks great! Bettas don't like high flow, it looks like he is struggling a little. You could put a little filter floss or something over the spray nozzle to slow the flow down, my name suggestion would be butters
Thank you Seth! You are right, I put some sponge in front of the nozzle and it’s much better now 🙌🏼
Definitely better then the first tank I had lmao, I still have bettas today too, definitely a good starting point. A suggestion I’d give is if you notice the water flow is to strong for him, you can pull off the head where the water is Comming out and put a small piece of a course sponge in , it will slow it down without stopping water, or filter floss before the main sponge might slow water down.
My fluval tanks have the same water spout heads
Thank you so much!! I had some extra course sponge that I put in there and now the flow is so much better for him.
I've done that same thing. it really works
this is great
Thank you 🙏🏼
That betta fish is sick!! Welcome to the fish keeping hobby
Appreciate you Josh, I am fully into it now 😂
You will want to get a bigger tank here soon 🤣 it’s addicting
I have kept fish for over 10 years and my dude did his research!!! I’m impressed!!!
Finally some one who does his research before buying a fish
YESSSSSS!!!!! You actually did it 🤍 what about naming him freckles, live plants 🌱 woulda been my choice tho 🥂
I agree!! Once I get him comfortable I am going to swap out the plants for real ones 🙌🏼
Big blue
I also got my first tank this week. I had a couple as a kid but they was never really mine. After watching Paul, Brenton etc for a while with my daughter, I decided it was time to get my own. Only started out with a small temperate tank with some Danios and minnow's, but everyone has to start somewhere hey 😂
😂 hey welcome to the addiction we are in it together
That's it mate, I've made it to day 3 and they're all still alive so I must be doing something right 😂
Named him Bob! 😎
Tank and fish are really nice !!!
Thank you Anne!! ❤
such a good sign hes eating right away!! good job
Thank you 🙏🏼
Name Him Frosty!
man I just love ur content and I subscribe once I watched the first vid man keep it up ❤❤
I appreciate you and look forward to keep growing together !
You should name him something like caffaro, or pc?
Thank you Griffin from Perth Western Australia! this is so cool my daughter has been begging me for a fish tank so she can get a betta fish and I finally got my first 21L one and we are setting it up now. It’s so exciting
Skittles!
I love the fish tank
Wait… know I want a fish tank!!! I love this video can’t wait to see when you get more! 😌
So well done! Nick bingo could learn from you
Can't believe you finally got a fish!!!
I know.. I caved 😂😂
Name him Harold!
Aww I love your energy and how happy you are to get this fish! 🥺
He is the best :)
U should call him Blue!
Great video buddy can't wait for more,and his name should be Griff Jr lol
Thank you chad! Maybe LIL G 😂
🎉awesome video and congratulations on the new fish 🐠. Really enjoying your channel.
Thank you Ryan 🙏🏼
great video just watch the flow of the water in your betta fish !!!
I appreciate it, I put some sponge in front of the nozzle to slow it down 👊🏼
UNO the Betta!
Congrats!
Thank you 👊🏼
wow so your first ever fish is really special, so a name needs to be special to you and maybe to us too since we're doing this journey with you. You've been calling the viewers G... so I'm thinking GMan..... or something G would be fun.
It is super special and I like what you’re thinking..
Congrats, If you name the fish Mr. Beast you could make video's like " Mr. Beast pooped in my fish tank" might get a lot of views. LOL
😂 you are one funny ole boy
lets gooo 🐟 🐠 🐡
🙌🏼👊🏼
Hey Griffin, what a great looking first tank. Looks like you've done everything right, but always expect the unexpected. Before I moved to Vegas, I always had fish. great hobby and well worth the effort. It's also good for lowering blood pressure. I'm very happy and proud of you for getting this. Thank You, as always Griffin, for sharing and I think You should name it "Aquarius," partly since it is a cool name for a blue fish and it just seems to fit it. Thank You again & look forward to your next video.
I like that name.. sounds like you need some more fish soon though 🫣
The cutest video I’ve seen ❤
I prefer this Griffin
Should name him Alpha, Alpha Betta 🐟
You should name the betta El Primero, which is spanish for the first, and this is your first betta fish
Or you could name him Azul, spanish for blue
you should hit up a tour wit the other homies. Nick Bingo for sure. get Brenton down to Florida! dope crew
i love this tank it’s way better than my first one 😂 you should definitely get anubias they are super easy it’s what i use and i have the opposite of a green thumb
Way to go my friend, I am so happy that I have gotten to see where your addiction begins😂😊! But make sure to get a gravel vac and do it every week
Thank you for the advice 🙏🏼 welcome to the beginning of my addiction 😂
Been a subscriber since 3k and in no time it will be 1m 🥰
I appreciate you!! Looking forward to it 👊🏼
This is so coolll!!
Those plants you have in there are to sharp, you need to get one that are round leaf and leaf that stick to the side so he can sleep on it
Thank you, I will get that fixed 🙏🏼
@@imgriffjohnson i learned that from paul
Wow this video was great. You surprised me, love that you’re doing things the right way! Your subscribers love this !
Love the enthusiasm good luck on your fish keeping journey hopefully you will catch the bug 👊🇬🇧
Gonna watch this later but for now so far it’s 🔥 LOVING THE TANK THO
Appreciate you sike 🤞🏼
Great job, brother. Well done for your first tank 👏 you should get a couple of small plecos and remember to don't over feed
I had the same tank. It's nice just watch out on having the light on to long it will grow algae like crazy!
Thank you for that tip!! I am turning it off during the day now 🙌🏼
underated video❤
Hi

Awesomme
Ahh your betta is cute I have one called Albert he is at least 2 years old xx
you did so good on your ist tank amazing job looking forward to when you up grade i thnk you are hooked now lol
I am beyond hooked 😂😂 thank you 👊🏼
“Your my boy blue” - will Ferrell/ old school
Name him BLEW! 😂
😂😂 good ole blew!!
Great tank although the water flow was a bit too strong, you might wanna adjust that
You should name him George
King Neptune for your blue betta.
I like it 🙏🏼
🔥🔥🔥🤙🏼
This was siiick!🔥🔥🔥
Bro you gotta get Bryce to come out with you and go Chamaeleon hunting lol 😂😂
Your betta fish lookes a bit like mine😊
Name him boss
Name it Shark
My beta fish always had enough bacteria inside them to not worry about that when doing my water change when I was young and it would live through the roughest conditions before changing the water. Beta fish is in my opinion the easiest fish to take care of. Now that I'm older I realized how much I didn't take care of my beta! 😅
Also, I had no bubbler or filters, so maybe he just created his own beneficial bacteria!🤔
BartholoBlue
Okay well my that it is called Ralph the mail and my female is called cherri bomb
Name it Finn
I let my tanks cycle for 4 months then I put a snail in them a month later I put a small fish in let him go for a week feed a little then a week later I feed him fully then I put my other fish in
Where's Paul? I thought PC was in all your videos? 🤔
Usually once a week but I film a lot on my own 🙏🏼 he is a great mentor and I’m lucky to have his help
I kinda want a fish
papa smurf
Name him mr.G bc of the G squad
billy a good name
Just a reminder my friend! Fish don't breed but TANKS do.😁
😂 you are so right
NAME HIM MR.G
Name the fish Dixie
To much current they like to have no current it's way better for them less stressful just giving you a tip bro congrats
Thank you Victoria 🙏🏼 I put some sponge in front of the nozzle and slowed it down
you should name him jamarcis
😂 little jamarcis
Heck ya
He is beautiful call him merlin
Pls pls do real plants, and a betta leave to stick on the glas for it to rest on,
Thank you for the advice I am working on getting that fixed ASAP
@@imgriffjohnson cool keep us updated, i have 5 tanks also its addicted
Name him Sky or Blue
Name him sike
Cool looking tank
Great awesome video!! Maybe you could name the fish “Ralph” and when he eats you could say “Wreck it Ralph” 😂
😂😂 love it
@@imgriffjohnson 😂
name him benny 😆
Kraken, or Caspian either would be good names for your new fish. As always 👍🏻🙏🏻❤
Name it avatar !
What about the bubble wall?!
I have to get a hose to connect it to my filter 🙏🏼
Name it bluemoon
too small for betta fish. Bettas need only live plants and places to hide. Sponge filter is much better because of lower flow
Thank you 🙏🏼 I will get it fixed
I have had some betta fish but they weren’t my favorite fish out of the fishes that I have had and my favorite fishes that I have had has to be the granddaddy of my fish my three spot Gourami, My balla shark, my red tail shark, my freshwater angelfish, and my tiger and Tinfoil barbs and I would say that out of my fishes the ones that freaked me out had to be my glass catfish and they freaked me out because I could see through them and I also didn’t really like this other fish that I had but it was okay but the part I didn’t like about the fish was that the next morning after I got the fish it had passed away like I don’t know if it was old or was sick or was abused but I don’t really know what happened and the fish was a Mickey Mouse platy however I also really liked my swordtails and they were amazing for to watch because to me they were my miniature freshwater swordfish’s even though they aren’t swordfish.
Swordtails are awesome! Sorry about your Mickey 😢
@@imgriffjohnson it’s okay It could have been the place where I got because like i got it a pet smart and like the other fishes I got at petco and I agree with you because the swordtails were just so amazing to watch.
Name him jethro
Love the video man keep climbing
Appreciate it brotha 🙏🏼
