- I'm finally back at college!! I've had plans on rescuing a betta down here for a while now and I'm so happy I was able to do it. It's only been a few days and he has progressed so much. I hope you enjoy this video!
Hello commenters! I am open to hearing all of your advice/opinions. Everything said in the video is my own personal opinion that you may or may not agree with. While I would love to take all of your advice you all have conflicting opinions as well! My happy Betta and I thank you for your support!
Excellent!!
Very informative. I just got a betta for my dorm and this video taught me everything I need to know. Thank you Brick.
I’m glad I could help!
that was an impressive change of color once he got established in the aquarium.
I was shocked at how fast he changed color!!
Wow that transformation is so impressive and I learned so much from this video! Thank you so much for sharing🤩 great job and keep up the good work!
Thank you so much for your support!! I really appreciate it.
Love the video 😊
Great video! Love the dorm.
you should name him apollo! great stuff brick
Amazing! Love your videos!
Wow, this is awesome content!!! I loved all of the ideas you shared with us within this video, thank you for all of that helpful advice. This little guy's transformation in less than 24 hours is truly amazing!!! I would love to see an update on how he is looking now. I think you should name him Sapphire!
That’s an awesome name idea!! I’m glad you liked the video. I’ll be sure to keep you updated.
This was a great vid to watch, keep it up !!!
Thank you so much for your support!
Alien betta will always be a little paler than plakat, so considering with stress, it is normal for him to not show color. And I think overall you did good with the tank for him. Maybe reducing the light a little for algae control and not overfeed of course, also don't forget that betta is a great jumper! Good luck!
Thanks so much! Considering all of the many other fish I have owned I do tend to assume loss of color with stress. Good to know that they can be paler.
Hello, Is your Tank a 2.5 or 5 gallon? I like the way it looks. also asking cause I have mine in a 5 gal and I don't have the space on my desk. The tank seems a bit big for him and I know some say they need a 5 but I have lots of plants and he says very busy. Not sure if a 5 is really needed.
Hello! Yes it is a 2.5 gallon. You will hear most people say that a 5 gallon is the minimum amount for a betta. I have kept bettas in both 2.5 and larger and I see the same happy/healthy results in both. Being that you already have the 5 gal I would personally just stick with that. Gives you more space to plant/decorate too! Disclaimer however this is my own personal opinion coming from my experience. You will hear different ideas/thoughts everywhere you ask. Good luck!
@@BricksAquatics I have lots of tanks. Keep a betta in a 46 bow front with guppies. I will keep the 5 gal for a few weeks thought I might try the 2.5 after I saw yours. If his temperament changes I can switch him back on water changes. I like your ch. I'm not as much into fish as I used to be but Im going to subscribe to you.
You don’t want flow in a beta tank
Hey!! So I only say that because the absence of any flow causes some really nasty biofilm to accumulate on the surface of the tank. Obviously no need for something like a wavemaker but a filter with even the slightest bit more power could be a little better. I have also been told by many other people (including previous commenters like yourself) that I need more flow. Super hard to please everyone's opinion! Sorry!
I mean this with SO much respect but a lot of things you said here are misinformation. Blood worms are a great treat for bettas but should not be their only food. You already have a bit too much flow in the tank for their comfort, I definitely wouldnt seek more. You also should definitely get a lot more plants. They really dont prefer a lot of swimming space, they love plants and tons of places to hide and rest. He definitely had a beautiful glow up though! His colors transformed beautifully and quickly 😍
Hey! So I actually have frozen blood worms, brine shrimp, and mysis shrimp that I will feed to my betta. I just didn't mention that in the video. Another thing about the flow is that I have been getting mannnnnyyyy mixed opinions on the flow of the tank. Some people say more flow, others say I already have too much. As far as the plants go I've also heard mixed reviews on that as well. A lot of people believe bettas need lots of room to swim around in so that's why I didn't want to overcrowd the tank with too many plants. Point is, It's nearly impossible to please everyone's opinion. I really do appreciate your advice though! Thank you for the support!
I think that brick just didn’t add every little piece of information in this video therefore it would be a very long video! Everyone takes care of their fish differently and her information was super helpful to me:)
