      She might not be 'pure white' (unless she was specifically bred to be that color) for longer if she begins recover and continues to do so. Her color might come back. I have seen videos of stressed/maltreated fish who loose their colorful scales and after some much needed TLC regain their original color

      As a rat owner, at my petco the cage sizes are fine. But the rats have absolutely no toys and the only thing they have are 2 plastic little igloo lookin things. They need places to climb, or hammocks to rest in. They look depressed and almost always have respiratory issues. Luckily, when I got my girls they had just arrived and hadn’t been exposed to the bedding that would give them issues, and now they’re about one and a half thriving. (You probably don’t care now that I think about it but whatever)

      ?? just simply being in the hobby makes us equally responsible because if we weren't buying them, they wouldn't need to mass produce them and ship them by the millions in packed bags leading to millions of them dying just from the stress of shipping alone. If only you could see the amount of fish that literally every pet store throws in the trash before you ever get to see them in the tanks when the store opens (some stores don't even bother to take the dead ones out when they're supposed to) This one fish isn't the big picture.

      Still not a good idea to attack the workers, it's not their decision to put them into cups 😭 I'm a pet care worker and I spent hours opening and cleaning Betta fish cups today just to make sure they all stayed healthy my fingers are in IMMENSE pain

      1. Aww your poor fingers. At least you're not stuck in 1 room that you breathe, shit and urinate in, with no way to open a window for at least fresh air, hey.
      2. No one said anything about attacking the workers.
      The other person meant something along the lines of as long as there are Beta Keepers buying or "rescuing" these fish, being kept in miserable conditions... the companies that order in, store and sell them in little plastic cups will continue.
      Rescuing 1 ill looking Beta, won't change the conditions for the rest of them, still left on the shelf. Or those that will be ordered in to replace them.
      A lot of these fish die due to keeping them like this, if not at the shop, when some goodwiller buys them at half price thinking they're going to try save them - but the fresh conditions happening too fast shocks them and they die anyway.
      Then they're attracted to "make it right" for the passed "rescue".
      So they ask questions in Facebook groups, do as much reading as they can absorb and prepare and prepare as well as they can (this is best scenario behaviour in their eyes),.. Two weeks later, they return to the shop and purchase another Beta in a cup - you know, in tribute to losing the first one they tried to save.
      It's yet another perpetuation of the cycle.
      At the end of the day, no living animal should be kept in such conditions.
      It should be regulated/legislated to change this, wherever these cups of Beta are sold.
      *Here in all the Victorian, Australia, aquarium shops, they have walls of Beta tanks. Very small tanks I grant you, but absolutely not a plastic cup, and they're all hooked up to their own filtering system where each tank has fresh turnover of water, automatically. They are fed, and kept a close eye on. As all fish should be.
      Supermarkets should not be permitted to sell live animals, regardless.
      Having said this, our pet shops no longer sell cats or dogs either. Our general pet shops only usually stock general fish (typical tropicals & goldfish), maybe hermit crabs, some basic reptiles with minor licenses required before purchases (higher knowledge licensed animals can usually be ordered in), rodents and birds.
      Our pet shops, thankfully, will often have "useful Karen" monitoring them, their live stock and treatment.. and it's how we got our regulations changed.
      We still have our back yard breeders, negligent owners with "oh no, another unexpected litter!", because they failed to have their chosen pet desexed - but for the most part, our pet purchasing practises have been extremely upgraded, compared to what they were when I was a kid.
      I understand some wholesalers still transport Beta orders in cups.. but it's just laziness for a retailer to put them on a shelf for sale, in the same conditions.
      Only way to demand better, is to stop purchasing them entirely, until change is made.

      @@serenaferea8434If chain pet stores know that some bleeding heart will come by and pay full price for a dying fish (and post it online which encourages more people to do it), what reason do they have to keep their fish healthy and in better conditions? Sick dying fish are still selling and making these corporations a profit! That sick fish will just be replaced by another fish that will get sick from lack of care. The only way to save fish in any real way is to get these companies to STOP carrying them and that only happens if NO ONE buys them.

      one fish in a tank with this amount of plants for the amount of water that's in it, you wouldn't even detect any ammonia anyway. I have a few like this that I never changed the water in, the waste feeds the plants and eventually makes it's way into the sand as well. But anyway this video makes no sense because she has plenty of cycled filter sponge she could easily cycle it instantly if she wanted to. So she's intentionally not cycling it.
      Edit: Oh and there's also a good chance the plants themselves will carry some beneficial bacteria, and probably even some snails that will help clean the tank.

Every controlled study ever done conclusively showed bacteria in a bottle products do not make a difference in the slightest, and regardless of brand. You're just putting dead bacteria in the tank thinking it's going to do something and at some point it is cycled anyway. Actually the majority of aquarium products are scams and the youtubers who promote them know they are but they get them for free so there's no loss.

    Hi! As ex beta fish breeder I would not recommend putting her in this tank
    I do not know English that well so I cannot explain chemistry behind it but in fresh started tanks will be sudden changes of parameters!
    She's professional and she can check water daily but I do not recommend it, a sick fish with tank like this will 100% die.
    For wondering:
    The most effective way in treating beta fish like this is to put them in bowl (you know, just some container) with fresh water, change water on on 48 h to avoid sudden changes in parameters. Slow, gentle pre started filter and ofc heater bc betas need warm water! To water you gives the
    In week or two fish will be stronger and start to behave normally (in hard rescue cases it really can be a long process)
    When tank is ready you can move your fished but not before first two weeks for sure. The first spike in azot (?) is the most dangerous, with others betas are dealing pretty well :)
