  • EP9 presents: wild betta imbellis, wild betta tank setup, wild betta unboxing, wild betta tank mates, making indian almond leaf tea, acclimating new betta fish, wild betta fish community tank. Finally new Betta Fish was unboxed. I ordered "Wild Betta" also know as "Peaceful Betta" or "Betta Imbellis". Fish was breed in Thailand. Interesting thing about "Wild Betta" is their ability to change colours in a matter of seconds/minutes. If they feel stressed they will completly lose their colours. Colours will only return in case they feel safe and happy. So basically it is like they have ON/OFF switch. Also their health is much better compared to "Betta Splendens" because they were not breed by humans for long and more beautiful fins. Because they are a wild form of Betta they can be more shy and skittish and I definetly noticed that. Although they are called "Peaceful Betta" their character is different from fish to fish. My new Betta was chasing shrimps since his arrival, so after he ate all the shrimplets and killed one adult "Red Cherry Shrimp" I had to take the shrimps out of the tank. I will make a new tank for them. With his two "Endler Guppy" tank mates, well lets say it was ok, but I am also planning to take them out of the tank. Endlers are very playful and although the tank is big it has a shape of a cube and has a small footprint. They are all the time in each others face and when that happens Betta will chase them. So far they are too fast for him but to avoid any accidents I will rehome them. If tank had a bigger footprint I would leave them. He didnt show any interest in " Amano Shrimps" and "Nerite Snail" so they will remain with him in the tank. Betta Tank (30LTR/8GAL) is an ongoing series that will cover the topics of how to care for betta fish, betta fish tank mates, what do betta fish like and maintenance of betta planted nano tank.
    For anyone interested in buying high quality betta fish (I got my new betta from them) check the link bellow. They ship to 22 European countries and soon they will open possibility of purchasing for their clients in USA, Canada and Australia.

    Drip acclimation is usually a bad idea, it can kill a lot of fish. Their transport water isn't in good condition and they need to get out of it as soon as possible. The bag should just be floated for 20 minutes.

    • @IMaqua
      @IMaqua  5 месяцев назад

      You are correct. In 90% of the cases I will do plop and drop. In the other 10% of the cases if transport water looks clean but parameters of transportation water (temperature and pH) are different from aquarium water I will do drip acclimation.

    My fish is not accustomed to pellets, so I don't give him food for several days until they are hungry. But after that, he knows how tasty pellet is 😁
    As long as I know, live food such as bloodworm and water fleas are better than pellets

    • @IMaqua

      Thats one of the ways how to train your fish to dry food. I had different fish and I would say it really depends on their personality; some will refuse dry and some refuse live food. In the end if you keep them without food for few days they can be trained to accept any type of food.

    • @IMaqua
      @IMaqua  3 года назад +1

      Yes it could definitely work, tank is big enough. But make sure to add Betta Imbellis last. You said community tank, what kind of fish do you have inside? That is something that should be taken into consideration.

      @@IMaqua Currently, my 55 gallon community freshwater fish that I have is L183 Snowball Pleco, African Butterfly fish, Peacock eel, Albino Dojo loach (Is adapted now in tropical conditions in my aquarium), one Blue Vampire Shrimp. Also, and maybe 3-4 discus (not really sure if discus would be ideal to my aquarium)

    • @IMaqua
      @IMaqua  3 года назад

      Personally I wouldn't keep betta with discus. Although there are fish keepers who do keep them together, take into consideration that discus need tank that is more taller and betta need tank that is more shallow. The rest of the fish are ok, and its a pretty big tank so I think it should work especially with Betta Imbellis. But as you saw from my example they are not always "friendly and peaceful" but that has to do more with a fact that my tank is only 8 gallons.

      Plants are always good, I mean every tank should have natural plants, filter and a heater. Betta Imbellis character is different than Betta Splendens, they are much more skittish, shy and "wild" but they are interested in their own way. But 55gal is big enough, i am sure he will find his own corner and territory inside such a big tank.
