I love this series because it makes me either really insecure about my betta's lightly planted tank or it makes me feel a little better about what im doing
i feel the same, i have no acess to live plants locally and shipping to my area is INSANE, so he has soft artificial plants for now. Just know that you're already leagues beyond some of the horrible fish keepers on these lists.
Don't worry, you'll get there. Good luck with your tank! I'm currently waiting for my shipment of plants to finish filling out my 10 gallon zebrafish tank :))
@@doodledonutt1220got to be someone local who has ordered plants that you can buy some clippings from. Just a thought. Best of luck on your journey 👍
Hey man that 14 year old yourself comment actually helps a lot. I've been feeling a lot of guilt for years of mistreatment my turtle experienced, but since getting help for my MDD he's in an extremely appropriate environment. We all make mistakes, what matters Chirs is that we keep moving forwards.
glad to have helped :)
Same
I-
I used to feel so bad when I found out about this guy because I used to have a small tank with beta fish and goldfish and I used to fill JARS with guppies thankfully I’ve fixed my bad times and now have okay looking tanks.
Also your tank looks better than mine ngl lol
Same thing happened with me and my turtle. Poor guy suffered so much neglect at my hands ):
but now hes SO happy and has grown like crazy since getting uvb. He even gets to eat live feeder insects. He went from neglected to spoiled.
Totally agree, I had a betta when I was 7 and now I feel so bad, I’m slowly building my setup to be better for my betta, and I’m applying for jobs so I’ll finally have the money to replace my 2.5 tank (it was a gift along with my fish) :)
Every betta should experience the painful sting of saltwater on its skin and in its gills while not actually being sick and needing a salt shock treatment! I mean, come on! It was on his bucket list to enjoy that! (His kick-the-bucket list)
Why
It can kill the fish
I have a PhD in Fisheryingologyism and i concur
@@draughtroom368DR34 it’s probably a joke
These people have not yet been acclimated to sarcasm, the cure, is watching more Fish for thought content.
I love how he pays so much attention to each tank that he is actually able to recognise ones he has rated before.
That graphic about spilling water hit home. Last week I filled up a bucket to heat up (with a spare heater) overnight before a big water change. I left some tubing hanging out of the bucket by mistake and it siphoned all of it out into the floor. Best part is I don't know where it went. Its a concrete floor and it's just gone so I'm probably going to get black mold in the walls or something.
it's too real :(((
Im extremely awkward so i cant be near water without spilling. I invested in reusable puppy pads and lay them down whenever im doing anything in my tanks.
Regarding the betta that was dropped in the sink, I'd be more afraid that the dishcloth had soap on it.
Kind of a fun fact. I looked into it, bc I was curious about the tolerances, and although obviously not recommend and basically torture, that betta in the saltwater tank may survive due to their hardiness. According to a few different sources in a quick internet search, they can apparently handle much higher levels of saltiness than most freshwater fish and will survive for a good while (although they won't thrive). They will likely struggle to breathe via their gills, but they have a labyrinth organ, so even that issue won't stop them. Such amazing little creatures. Sad to see them in such stressful situations
certainly hope it was taken out quickly and survived :(
It was hard to watch as soon as I realized it wasn't just shocked from it's little tumble. I hope they ended up putting it in something else with fresh water
Brine shrimp live in water so salty that salt water fish can't survive there. This is how they avoid predators. They live in places where predators can't survive. I had brine shrimp swimming in water with so much salt that salt crystals would form in the bottom of the container. This is way worse than regular sea water.
Yeah no, it's not saltwater, it's brine. If you even saw those deep sea rovers run into a brine pool, you know how deadly that stuff is for fish. You're basically curing your betta (like curing some beef jerky) by putting it in that solution.
Dylan, your "internet seach" forgot "common fucking sense". Try harder.
we have sea monkeys! And I love them! We got them a bigger tank and our very first planted shrimp tank is thriving! Never had a fish tank before but your channel has definitely given us direction. Yikes, sea monkeys are a lot of sea creatures favorite food, I’m not too sure they can be housed with anything except sea monkeys. I have my sea monkeys in their own tank because i worry the shrimp will eat them.
You could probably chuck some brackish snails in there.
@@Swinaecologist2023 in the sea monkey tank? Because we have rams horn snails (i think that’s what we have. We got her by accident when we got some shrimp and now we have a ton of snails)
@@Swinaecologist2023 the only brackish snail I actually know is nerites, which are actually a species group, maybe? But yeah they require brackish water to lay eggs but apparently their larva actually fair better hatching in full saltwater and might not need acclimated to brackish or fresh at all as they mature unless people want to do that, unlike bamboo shrimp that're kinda dumb in that their kids require at least brackish levels of saltwater but the adults are salt intolerant ^^'. Nerites are a great suggestion though for a brackish tank if it's big enough for a larger snail species
@@victordelossantos2644 kinda disk shaped shell? Ramshorns are pretty common pest snails on live plants along with Malaysian trumpet snails, hard to mix up with anything else since one who's shell is a spiraled spike, and bladder snails (alternatively know as common pond snails), which have a bit more of an oval bubble shell and are specked olive to grey or brown. No clue if bladder snails can tolerate more then trace amounts of salt but I accidentally found out ramshorns don't mind brackish water and the trumpet species is... Apparantly they're part of a primarily brackish/salt snail family so I have exactly one tank where they went crazy ^^'
@@discordiacreates6669 yep! I looked them up and definitely rams horns. They are in a planted tank with our shrimp. What did you do when their numbers got out of hand?
Seamonkeys thrive in salinity saltier than seawater itself, otherwise known as brine water. So they pretty much shoved that betta in water saltier than the sea.
That Betta said noooooooo thanks, I don't want to go in. Thank you for providing this fantastic video and making my Monday great again!
lmao true xD
About the amphibians in Norway thing: Import of exotic mammals, reptiles, and amphibians is prohibited. In this context, "exotic" means animals that aren't native to Norway and aren't on a list of recognised pet and livestock species. And since axolotls aren't on that list, it would at least be illegal to import them into Norway.
I was doing research for my first ever aquarium and now im hooked only about 100 episodes left what am i gonna do after!! I guess now i belong to the fish. Great work!!
only 100 episodes? haha xD That's a lot! More eps to come of course :)
@@FishForThought with my speed it aint much but will only help me enjoy later episodes even more
I got a new betta fish and I’m constantly checking his water parameters. He’s been flaring at the edges of my tank so I’m drawing some backgrounds on thick cardstock to tape to the back of the tank and to the side where I can’t look through. Already added the paper to the side and he seems to really enjoy it. He’s also been following my face when I look at him. I alternated from looking at him from the side to the front and back a couple of times. He’s super cute and so pretty. He’s in a 5 gallon tank with a few Amano shrimp and a blue mystery snail. Mystery snail may go back to the shrimp tank but only after I get a bristlenose pleco to join the betta as I need a cleaner in the tank to take care of old plant matter and any algae. I’d rather not use tons of chemicals if I can avoid it
Whoa I would avoid a bristle nose unless you plan on getting a 20-30 gal tank. Bristle nose get around 5 to 6 inches and are not suitable for a 5 gal. The bigger a pleco gets the more waste it also produces. If you want a pleco I would look for a dwarf/mini species as they tend to get between 2-4 inches and would be more suitable for a 5-10 gal tank. However 2 or 3 Otocinclus would be a better suited cleaner/ algae eater.
Edit also there is nothing wrong with using the proper chemicals for fish tanks hell one of the filtration levels in a normal filter system is called chemical, you got your biological, mechanical, and chemical. And in a smaller tank, aquarium chemicals can be a lifesaver as small tanks are generally harder to maintain.
the tank in the photo might look more like a 2.5, but it is actually is a 6.8-gallon cube. Gobi is kinda at the front of the tank so it looks smaller.
I keep my aquarium surge protector in a special box I got from Amazon. It has a lid on it so no water gets splashed on it accidentally. Definitely worth looking into for the safety of you and your fish :)
We don’t practice safety here *drops greek fire into the crab tank*
That betta saw the tank and was like nope im outta here
I bought 10 feeder goldfish from the mart of pets 3 or 4 years ago. All but 2 died within a few days of putting them in my pond. But 2 survived! They are now 1' long and get along with my koi quite well. I have lots of tropical fish in my indoor aquariums but my $0.33 feeder goldfish are my favorite :)
im surprised you havent gotten more goldfish by now haha
@@chey8911 Ha, it can easily become an obsession for sure. But nope, just the two goldfish and a koi in my pond. They like having all the room to themselves :)
My Betta died this morning, and then this video
@@draughtroom368DR34 Awe that's so sad- I'm sorry. My betta just turned 3 yesterday. He is officially an old man now.
@@KateInTheCity mine was only in my tank for about 3 months
I can’t remember if it’s a gold fishes second or first intenstine. But one of them processes food at a way slower rate and has characteristics of a stomach. Neat stuff!
cool!
Bettas can last up to 8 hours outside the water, I only know that because when I discovered my fish yeeted herself from her tank, didn't know where she went and how long she was out of water I looked it up to see if it was possible she survived....she didn't.
Fairy shrimp, Anostraca look extremely similar to Artemia, but they are exclusive fresh water. So it could still be a fresh water tank.
one can hope
I was going to say this, but at the same time, I don't think anyone who has knowledge of and enjoys keeping fairy shrimp would be so careless with their fish. Then again, there are always a few crazies in this hobby. I just don't know very many people in vernal pool creature keeping who aren't extremely meticulous about their tanks, water quality, and animal care. Which usually extends to their other aquatic pets. Either way, the entire video was a mess and I feel so bad for that poor betta.
You can really see the salinity when they pour the cup in, the water spirals from the mix
I mean I had a dedicated brine shrimp tank that was 1tbsp Aquarium Salt to 1 Gallon water. Which could possibly be used as a very strong medical dip for bettas. But you know, with proper acclimation instead of tossing it around your kitchen.
true. And the dip time has to be quite short.
@@FishForThought I mean, it might clean all the kitchen counter grodiness off the poor fella?
Not gonna lie, ive been keeping betta fish a long time and mine jumped out of the net and into my sink the other day and all i could hear is Chris grilling this man for dropping his in the sink! i was MORTIFIED.
Be careful getting your own driftwood tho... I remember this guy from the states jumped into the lake off the boat dock to get a big piece. He was holding onto string but the string detached and he started drowning. Someone jumped into save him but the guy ended up pulling the man saving him down under the water and they both died....
Dumb and dumber
(bunbun22) its a 6.8 gallon cube that mom got from petco for me, and we bought the heater separately (and it was 60% off)
Thanks so much for reviewing my tank!!! Was not expecting it at all!
Dude! I sneeze exactly the same way! AND everybody thinks I'm coughing too! I've never seen anyone else like this. Sooo..... Bless you many times over 😊
ty and bless u a lot too xD
Any chance you'd be interested in selling sneezing videos? I typically pay $40 per vid.
So cool to hear all the instruments you play. I play piano, guitar, trumpet, harmonica, mandolin, violin, banjo, bass, double bass, flute, and sax. I went to school to become and audio engineer and worked for Sony's Songwriters' division. Music is my other wallet draining hobby.
that's insane!
I got so sick of the power bars I had to find a new solution. The better thing are the adapters for your plugs that turn them into multiple plugs that stay right in the plug, you usually get six plugs and they have USB plugs as well. Love them.
It is illegal to have amphibians as pets in Norway, and they only over-turned the ban on keeping reptiles in 2017. Even now there are only 19 species allowed. Really hard to enforce though apparently.
Its also prohibited to spay/castrate dogs (and cats i believe) without a good medical reason.
I kinda agree with the reptile ban ( In my opinion you should get a license to have most reptiles becouse so many people impulse buy and later on abuse the poor animals) but everyone should be able to spay their dog ( it should even be necessary unless you're a proffesional breeder)
All amphibians are not illegal in Norway... it's just illegal to keep any amphibians as pets.
We don't put wild frogs or salamanders in jail for being amhibians!
It's a bit of a shame, since there is exeptions to the similar rule regarding reptiles.
Axolotl's should really be exceptions to this rule (says the Norweigan guy who would really like to have an Axolotl!)
If my kid dumps out the water on the way to the tank, I'll just have to laugh and help him clean it up because I have no room to be upset about it! I've had some close calls with my big tanks...lol!
Actually, axolotls can be easy as heck to care for. I used to go to this really messed up fish store that sold tons of axolotls and I would buy all the derpy ones that were missing one or more limbs and just feed the hell out of them until they grew everything back. They need lots of oxygen and nice tannic water and enough space to establish territories. Also feed them as much as they like on worms and feeder guppies, they will thrive.
Happy FFTday! How can a channel show me so much misery in the fishkeeping hobby and still be the one I look forward to the most?? 😳🤔🤣
🤣 i ask myself how I'm still sane at this point
I love your channel, it gives me the fish vibes that I don’t have the time for!
great to hear that xD
Careful I had my betta in with my shrimp and he ate so many shrimp he started sinking to the bottom with a big belly and died of constipation 😢
first time i cleaned my filter almost 20 gallons came out of my tank. and i completely had to restart a full 40 gallon tank. cause we had to move the stand. unbelievably managed to lose 0 fish.
Hey Chirs! My brother had a sea monkey packet when he was young and I remember doing a bunch of research on them before hand obv bc I’m a fish nerd. But in those packets along with the eggs there are also salt crystals because sea monkeys jormally survive in salt water
9:35 is sooooo gorgeous and I feel like I’ve seen it before it feels very nostalgic!!
There's a stream near my house that floods once a year, and it is perfect for finding driftwood. Highly recommend after flooding for the best chances.
What a RELIEF to see someone else sneeze that way!!!! I have been known to have 11 in a row like that. Not sure if I've ever gone higher. I'm not sure if people think I'm coughing, but they often say "Are you OK???" in a very concerned tone of voice. It probably looks like I'm having some kind of violent seizure. Makes driving and playing the piano difficult.
lmao I'm glad now I know someone else who sneeze that way too xD
With my family, my dad sneezes about 8 times and my brother sneezes 3 times. I just sneeze 4 times occasionally.
Omg i have been waiting for Chris to mention Norway for such a long time. Every Norwegians EVER get so exited when someone non-norewegians mentions Norway. We are like "whaaat do they actually know about us?". Like, i am jumping rn. Remember, AMPHIBIANS are not allowed, but other reptiles are ofc. Cheers from Norway! "Keep up the good work"- Cris
Oh and btw i play drums, guitar, vallsneria and waterchange-siphone
Can you answer why amphibians are banned there? I'm curious because ik some places ban some unusual pet choices but I mean... It's technically legal to own a "pet" tiger in the US, depending on which state you ask ^^' so if there's a real reason for it then that's probably a good thing for the animals tbh. Idk though, I think amphibians are cool but they're difficult to keep since uh, ik at least frogs breath through their skin to some degree so it's really easy to accidentally hurt them if you don't keep your hands clean and touch one since germs aren't really friendly to... Anyone ^^'
@@discordiacreates6669 have no fuhhing idea, but i know someone who keeps frogs😂
@@isabeljrgensen1197 fair lol. Frogs are cute but I swear they're all evil and want nothing more then to devour the world... I still love them though, even if they do love to go for gumming people's fingers lmao
is it true that all reptiles are allowed? cuz i head that there were only 19 (or 20 idk) specific species (including morphs but excluding hybrids) of typical "pet"reptiles allowed in Norway
It could be that these weren't brine shrimp but fairy shrimp. These are freshwater shrimps which would make this a little bit less bad... Maybe
Sorry to potentially ruin your day but those were in fact, brine shrimp. I've only hatched them and haven't raised any to maturity yet but I've looked up how to and after a couple days they do start to look like the biggest ones in the tank. Also... Fairy shrimp are a puddle species, don't remember the actual name for it, but unless that person is adding new eggs periodically, fairy shrimp actually require their eggs drying out and being rehydrated to hatch so that and the algae... Yeah... Poor betta
@@discordiacreates6669 Yeah, you are most likely right. That's too unlikely to be fairy shrimp. :/
@@glassyGREEN_ yeah unfortunately they look exactly like brine shrimp, same color, size, though that body shape is a bit generic of colorless shrimp, especially ocean dwelling species. Fairy shrimp might stay smaller though and if they're definitely breeding on their own successfully, then they can't be fairy shrimp. Brine shrimp though, can breed in permanent pools and larger water bodies but what I've gleaned about fairy shrimp is not a good outcome for either species ngl
@@discordiacreates6669 I learned something new today, thank you. :)
But aren't fairy shrimp bigger than brine shrimp?
@@glassyGREEN_ always happy to share info and maybe, I looked at buying fairy shrimp eggs to hatch but stopped looking pretty quickly when I found out they're unable to survive more then one generation in a set up fishtank so they definitely could get bigger
There is a species of betta that can survive those tiny tanks. They are called crocheted bettas, they don’t even need water! All they need is a handful of pink gravel, a plastic plant, and boom! The perfect habitat for your crocheted betta!
there we go now we're talking
Really I had 2 axolotls that I got as babies and they grew massive then again they shared an aquarium (155 gallons)
Damn that starter pack meme got me called outttt. Best thing I ever did for myself was take 20 minutes with a label maker to tag each plug so I never have to wonder what I'm unplugging.
you have no idea how much your videos are helping me get through the day, thank you for your content it is very appreciated. I lost my sister recently and your youtube is one of my comfort things, thank you, and keep being you!
so sorry to hear that. praying for you and your family.
@@FishForThought thank you I appreciate it tons ❤️
Had a couple buy a goldfish yesterday. Cute feeder with the little Hitler stache. Kanye's favorite fish.
Just after giving them the bag the dude comes around the corner with an arm full of fish supplies and lo and behold there is a 1.3 gallon atrocity tucked inside.
Thankfully I convinced them that their 3 inch goldfish is already too big for their tank.
With any luck they'll follow my upgrade instructions as he grows up into a large Hitler fish.
Some day he will go on Alex Jones and yell about jews with Ye.
This comment made us howl with laughter - love it !!
I was about to comment about adhd and not always being able to focus on doing dishes... but then remembered this is the internet and I would probably get verbally assulted with misinformation.
ADHDer here and same. Dishes are my bane.
Horrible flashbacks to the multiple times i spilled several gallons of water onto my CARPETED bedroom floor. And it was almost always the dirty water 😭
Can Shrimp overstock a tank just by breeding.
Chris was probably a dagger main given how much love Kerning City bgm gets.
sindit
The number of times I’ve spilled between 1-5 gallons of water on carpet floors is embarrassing; not to mention the time one of my 40 gals seal burst and I didn’t notice til I came home from work to see water dripping from my ceiling (fish room on 2nd floor) 😳
Imagine how bad they’ll be at tank maintenance when they can’t even be bothered to do their dishes 😔
I just lost my 9 day old beautiful Crowntail betta to a bacterial/fungal infection. He died without a name because I was waiting to see what his personality was like before naming him.
(First it was just a bit of blood on his fin and I freaked and put a bit of dissolved aquarium salt in the tank gradually, but the next day there was a film of fuzz all over his tail. Amazing to see how fast that can develop in 24 hours. Got him meds after a few hours after the first little bit of fuzz, but 8 hours later he died). My water parameters were near perfect, the only thing wrong was the ph at 7 but that's not surprising given the water where I live.
I hope he had a good 9 days with me in his well filtered, heated, planted 5gal tank. :(
If anyone knows what most likely was wrong with him, and what I can do in future to prevent it, please let me know. I'm thinking he had the infection when I bought him from Petco (not the best place for fish I know), but he seemed healthy and well when I chose him.
I'm still treating the tank because there are still 6 amber tetras in there. They seem more resilient.
Ok the urge to put more fish in my 10 gallon is so relatable! I can play the piano a bit, but I'm definitely out of practice L.
Handpan, Harp (both small lever and concert grand pedal), acustic orchestral bass (not bass guitar, sadly) for instruments -- and sadly down 1 betta fiah, by old boy Cobalt got a Columaris infection and hung on for a good long while in the hospital tank, but sucombed last night. 😢
My boyfriend actually always sneezes 10 times in a row and i say "bless you" every time and it's only slightly annoyingly for him lol
1st video reminds me of when I brought my fish at home, I let him in his bag next to the tank to open the lid, and the bag rolled to the floor.. I felt so bad, but he was okey thankfully and happy to go to his new home
and you were probably not about to drop the fish into salt water :,)
@@FishForThought definately not salt water😂
It was bad enough that they dropped the beta in the sink but it now lives in a saltwater tank
Used to play the Alto Saxophone, and dabbled with the Clarinet and Keyboard.
Actually yes, I thought you were coughing 😂
bless you!
I sneeze like 3-4 times max in a row sometimes.
I play Piano a little bit. But I mostly excel at Trumpet, which I played lead in high school. About 20 years ago. I still play from time to time for fun. Can also play French Horn, and because they're the same as trumpet) the Euphonium and Tuba.
That poor beta.... Not only getting dropped twice but then tossed into salt water... I don't understand why people can't take 5 seconds to google some basic information before getting an animal.
On a lighter note: also Asian here! I've got piano, viola, violin and I started learning guitar recently. I've always wanted to learn traditional Chinese instruments though (guqin, dizi and erhu, specifically). I was also in choir for 6 years. I took so many music classes in school because they wouldn't put me in art classes 😂
1) hugest ouch on that betta
2) ive been lurking in the background while my partner watched ALL FTR so i finally dragged my arse over here and subscribed too
3) please tell me you already know stardew valley will let you put hats on your fish tank urchins 🥺
I turned my sneezes into coughs over 20 years ago and yes, i sneeze at least 3 to 10000 times at once
betta saw what is was in for and tried to yeet itself to safety😅
Me: decorating my tank with Java moss
FISH ABUSER: Hey, Wanna see my my half gallon jar with 2 goldfish and 3 neon tetra?
I sang professionally for 9 years. I'm not good enough to say I play piano, but I can play some simple things and can find the notes on it to assist myself with learning a new piece for singing.
About spilling the water. Hits close to home when I had fish. I would get yelled at and the family is allowed to flood the bathroom and kitchen because they forgot to turn off the water in the bathtub.
Anyways I play my violin still and I have a keyboard I like to mess with, my most precious instrument though is my voice because I play a lot of DnD and will sing to myself sometimes
I wish I could go back to a time in my life before I saw someone drop a betta into saltwater 😟
true.
Me too…yikes!
"Has either houseplants and reptiles (and probably a cat too)" Does this person stalk me or are we all a unified force for these living things?
Bless you! And yes. sadly I sneeze that much MOSTLY IN CLASS AND EVERYONE THINKS I GOT COVID.
Me feeling called out on my sink that's full of unwashed dishes.
oh no xD
This guy's wariness about axolotls makes me feel a certain pride in having grown mine from a tiny baby with no legs, into his big chonky self
My bettas been a bit slow, she is not old at all. I think she might be a little bit depressed because I have not been exercising her. :(. Also have not been running into my room talking in a baby voice “HELLLOOOO”
I feel so bad for that beautiful betta😢 Agree about the dishes, I can't stand dishes sitting in the sink
Flute, piccolo, kalimba (for funsies), piano, used to be able to play clarinet mildly but my asthma and Covid wrecked that…considering picking up guitar…
omg, my otos are super chonk too! but it's because sometimes we put like cucumbers on a screwer in the tank for them to eat
So glad my (9 gallon) tank is right near the front door, on concrete, where I can just sweep out the water... ^^;
I can top that:
I sing and play guitar in a band
Play clarinet (in a wind ensemble)
self-taught pianist
self-taught bassist
self-taught drummer
self-taught ukulele player
Play melodica (kind of like piano)
I can kind of play didgeridoo but not very well
and i don't know if you count this but am learning how to record and produce.
11:20 realistically? Ostracod stock. I've got a pretty large 4mm long species that would look sick in there with like a marimo moss ball, crystalwort, some twigs, and a sand substrate.
Very possible the Betta tank had fairy shrimp in it. They're basically freshwater brine shrimp, a bit more niche but a bit easier to actually raise/care for
‼️ bro I have the same problem everyone’s always lookin crazy “ was that a cough” i thought I was the only one 😭
i thought i was the only one too xD
I love that you said you look for driftwood while you're out. I have a lake that we go to for camping. I bring a tote and tupperware to collect driftwood and moss and cool rocks. Funny enough there is a boulder there growing so much moss that every time we're there they say it's my boulder because I'm always saying I want that boulder and I got to throw in a little Donkey and say "I like that boulder, that is a nice boulder." Every time, it's a running joke but I really do want that boulder.
8:41 chirs, my 40 gallon exploded in my room right after i filled it up. I just rescaped it!😭 my room has wooden floors... mom wasnt happy about that and neither the downstairs neighbours......
Im very lucky that my ass wasnt whooped that day.
Also, RIP my pc which got fried cse the water went inside it.
Oh my gosh bro I have that same sneezing problem. One time I was doing a water change and I spilled my buckets bc of those sneezes
The way I see it, there's nothing rotting in that sink that isn't rotting between my teeth.
kuhli loach is nice but how do a reedfish look for the shrimp ?
"most of the times plants die back then come back" im only a few blocks from my LFS we use the same water for our planted tanks i only buy plants there now because i dont gotta deal with plant melt issues - best hack ever to avoid plant melt me and then do the same thing to the water with the same products and boom skip the melt phase. LOL
I was doing a water change and stepped in the bucket of tank water… my sock was soaked
To the person who got the shoutout: go watch FTR 167
QOTW: Flute, i play that instrument and i can play any type of flute, and Oboe prob *2* (this 2 thing is and inner joke.) since it's similar.
awesome! i always wanted to play oboe
@@FishForThought Hey! I have a question, how many guppies can I fit in a 20 gallon? ( I’m a bit new )
I fail so hard at playing instruments that I can't even play Air Guitar.
How is the 14 yr old more responsible with a betta than the SeaMonkey people
He probably knows how to do the dishes too
i also sneeze like ten times in a row, glad to know im not the only one
There are multiple speies of sea monkey that live in fresh water, so it's not necessarily saltwater
This is like Dr Mike reacting to ‘medical’ TikToks but for fishkeepers
QOTW I’m a classically trained Violinist, violist, and pianist. I am also a self taught guitarist, play some mandolin and banjo, and the maracas if that counts lol.
New subscriber to the channel and an aquarium enthusiast. Keep it up!
so impressive!
We tried to play the flute -- but the noise of learning was too much for everyone in the house -- us included.
my betta when i was little fell down into our sink drain and my mom got him out and he literally lived another 2 years
