some of the stuff I couldn't find but also I put things that are similar if they had it. hope it helps :)
wow Im very impressed! I thought this was going to be another sad betta in a 1 gallon set up but you seem to know what youre doing
why thank you, wanted my beta to live its best life. :)
@@jillianwright4028 u spelt betta wrong
Hello! I'm an expert with aquariums. You seem to have done a lot of research which is great! We don't see that from many beginners. More live plants is always the way to go!
LOL no expert with aquariums says they're an expert....
Just a little advice in the future. Make sure you cycle your tank, if you don’t know what that is just google how to cycle an aquarium. Also make sure you don’t over sock the tank. But you did a very good job at actually buying the appropriate equipment for a betta
yea ikrr especially with no de-chlorinator before putting the fish in.
Hey! Just for some advice regarding your pleco, they actually require a minimum of 30 gallons as they can get huge! I’ve seen some that are like a foot long. Also, your betta care looks great! If you are wanting a bottom feeder for a ten gallon I would personally reccomend a snail, Cory catfish, algae eater, or a shrimp! Remember to take good care of your new fish children!
Thank you for letting me know my dad bought it to put in his pond outside for the summer but since it’s so small he wanted to have it grow up alittle bit before it was put with the Oscar and koi fish. So once he grows alittle bigger he will move in with them😊
It could be an albino female bristle nose witch can live in a 10 gallon if the tank if understocked but ya if its not a bristle nose your right
Did you cycle the tank before adding fish ??
This is actually a very nice tank your betta is going to be living LIFE
Why thank you 😊
I love how she actually got a amazing setup 🥰
Finally someone who actually tried. Tank looks great
Thank you 😊
I know this was posted 2 months ago but I would suggest not putting 2 fish in one tank just because it’s a betta fish and they are territorial and will attack the other fish. Other than that you did an amazing job!
Thank you for the advice 😊
Actually Kristy that is false. Bettas can be with other types of fish. Just not two males or male female. I have a tank with a vale tail male and a small school of neon tetras. I have been keeping bettas for many years this way.
I appreciate you not butting it in a tiny bowl, but I just wanted to inform you that plastic plants could injure your fish, cut its scales, etc! So it's better to have silk or real plants!
Thank you so much😊
yes i was gonna comment the same thing! Also with the algae eater in there if you add more fish it could be dangerous bc of how big of a bio load they have , and cycle the tank fully before adding more fish so you do not cause a giant ammonia spike 🙂 thank you for not putting him in a bowl!
I am very impressed with a first time fish keeper
Great video! U deserve a lot more view than what you have. I have my Betta in a 5.5 and he loves it in there! Your Betta looks very happy as well. Also I don’t know if this has been said yet but make sure you have a heater for your Betta so they stay nice and warm :)
aww than you so much I ended up getting a different filter that was much better and I also have a nice heater you will see in my upcoming vlog :)
Very nice! Just got mine today in a 3.5 tank! He’s loving life
Amazing :)
I recommend getting a 5 gallon tank it the main requirement for them they need the space so if you can get one :)
Really nice setup! Just be weary of the filter flow. Bettas prefer lower filter flow rates
thank you so much for the advice! I actually bought a different filter that lets me adjust the Flo bc I didn't like the other one
@@jillianwright4028 Which one did you get
I would make sure the plants are not to sharp to cut your fishes tail. Other then that you have really done good love the betta.
Cool video
Great video. 😊
Love the look of your tank! Not sure if you just didn't show it but always make sure to use a tap water conditioner for the fish as just normal tap water can make them ill x
Thank you!😊 I like to use two different kinds of conditioner I use either stress coat or just regular condition for my tank. When I first built my tank I used the regular in the water
It's very good, im getting a betta fish soon! i have done alot of research and it says that betta fish get scared and stressed alot, so they need alot of hiding spots, and this tank is good with the cave and plants.
koddos to the shop... even if its small bowls to display it looks good and they seem happy
good job with the size though you should take out any type of fake plant as they can have sharp edges that will rip your fishes fins
Thank you so much for letting me know the only thing that’s fake atm is the big rock with the twig and they love to hide in it
@@jillianwright4028as long as the edges are soft that way it won't cut the fins
I wonder how that live plant wood thing worked out
did you sand the stuff in the tank? it could hurt the fish if not
looks like we missed the whole letting your tank cycle part lol
Had beta water from fish store that already had bacteria for the fish 😊
I know I a little bit late but I just want to say great job, each of my bettas live in five gallons with a mystery snail. Also, I want to tell you that you betta is sick, but is slightly, rotten fins. You just need kanaplex for that. Good luck.
Thank you so much 😊
Thank you for actually giving it a proper setup! :)
Ofc😊
I agree with Macy they can grow to about 24 inches and try to put live plants in there and good luck,good vidoe and u deserved mor subs
Thank you the pleco is just temporary once it gets bigger she is moving in with my koi fish.
Wow that’s a really nice fish tank and betta
Thank you 😊
hi im very impressed that youve done your reasearch and got the right things and size. most people just stick there betta fish in 1 gallon or lower when hey need at least 5 gallons I would just consider getting a heater becusse the betta fish are in warm climates
I subscribed.... I feel so sorry because you only have 50 plus subscribers and I know you deserve more than that because ypu know what ypur doing🥺🙂🙂
Aww thank you so much 😊
im hopefully getting a beta soon and this video was really helpful!!! thank you 😊
Ofc!😊
I'm really glad I found this video it was very helpful and run to watch thank you so much!!! I subbed and liked straight away!
Great video! I wish I could get beta fish 😩
Aww thank you and I hope u get one soon 😊
Omg those fish looked healthy
Thank you 😊
Everything looks great ☺️💖 if you’re ever interested, you could maybe try live plants too? I recently bought some for the first time for my bettas tank and I am just sooo happy with everything. I ordered mine Buce Plant and my betta Dolly loves them. But everything looks good, just a suggestion :)))
Thank you so much 😊 I’m filming an updated tank vid it should be up next Wednesday if u r interested but I got some live plants and my fish love them💕
I think you did great and it looks really nice. I remember when I was like 8 I had a tiny 10 or so litre tank with like 4 goldfish I probably just thought oh they won’t get big it will be ok (I don’t have them anymore) but now I watch all these fish videos I’m like oh no- and I had the bright gravel aswell
Oh my gosh lol your betta looks exactly like mine hahaha
omg twins!!
Did you cycle the tank beforehand? The rest of this is GREAT!
keep up the content it will pay off one day
Thank you 😊
@@jillianwright4028 np
ahh this is awesome! love the 10 gallon and you've clearly done some research. so glad this wasn't another sad Betta video. one tip though, I believe the live plant that you got is a type of java fern and those don't do too well buried in substrate. they prefer to be attached to a rock or driftwood or something that sits above the water. if you want something to bury in the soil though, I would suggest basically any kind of Anubias or an amazon sword plant :)
Okay thank you for the advice 😊
Anubias is like Java fern. It doesn’t do well in substrate as the Rhizome rots. Some great plants for the substrate are any stem plant and crypts
Fluval substrate is better for live plants in an aquarium cuz it helps get the nutrients the plant needs and helps it survive.
not to be rude or anything. U probably did it, but didn't show it. I was wondering if u rinse out the gravel as well as the plant? Also did u add water conditioner to get rid of chlorine?
Yes we did my mother was doing that was me and my dad and brother were getting everything ready Bc that day we also bought some salt water fish for our tank so we also did that I was just trying to make the vid short and simple so it wasn’t boring and wasn’t to long
@@jillianwright4028 Great to hear. your a great fish parent:) Such a beautiful fish also!
@@juanavlog2730 thank you😊
Ahh i really thou\ght u were gonna pick the other betta
Hi im also betta fish lover
Amazing 😊
You deserved more subscribers😉😉😉
Thank you😊
That tank kit legit looks fire, how much was it??
Thank you I got the tank kit for 50 dollars at preuss pets Bc of the Christmas sale
But the decor and everything else was sold separately if that’s what ur asking
Just some advice if you didn't do it wash your rocks
Hi I've been in the hobby for 2 years and I have also have 12 betas and of course all of my tanks have black or red gravel or colored gravel or something like this but I live in Taiwan and I'm an American. I want to say great job on doing research and I hope that your fish continues to thrive.
I'd recommend Omega 1 pellets and Frozen bloodworms. In America they have a lot of great foods like bug bites and things like that.
Your beta needs a high diet of protein and I don't know it's confusing as to how often you feed I usually feed my bettas every other day and I give them five to six pellets because they have the small intestinal tract is what I've heard.
However as an American living in another country every country has a different concept on how to care for their betas but I tend to take a look at how they are are they swimming does the water smell clean do they look healthy what's the size you know some females they really enjoy large tanks and some males are actually quite content with you know maybe a three gallon tank but I do know that we use live plants because the plastic ones will kill your bettas fins.
Anubia sizzle great plant you don't need any aquarium soil there's also floaters which are great they just love to sleep in the leaves like the Water lettuce.
I'm sorry I forgot to mention that your tank is lovely
Thank you for the advice 😊
Sorry the name of the plant is anubias. This is a great plan but it never croaks you could actually even grow it in darkness. I live in Taiwan where the weather is at least over 90° like everyday so it's difficult to keep plants alive due to the water temperature but also this plant actually doesn't need to be in substrate you can just attach it to a piece of Driftwood like by putting the rhizome in one of the holes or even just tying it down with fish line is good
Omg!! I love the setup but honey! Pls research ! Your fish is most likely gonna die, fake plants, didn’t wash the substrate and you didn’t let it cycle! Please don’t put a pile o in ther to make it worse! This just gives me a headache. I’m glad your having fun but after that fish dies pls re start your tank with genuine research. And thank you for not putting it in a bowl, I have seen much worse fish care takers. I am subscribing because you seem like a fun vlogger 😄
Excellent ☺️
Thank you 😊
Dude thanks for not getting a 1 gallon bowl or something!!!!!
Dude u r welcome
That’s the standard 😬
that java fern is not going to grow if planted in the substrate
its called nutrient rich substrate
Cool tank new subscriber.
Thank you😊
How much did you spend on all of this?

your beautiful boy looks just like mine :(( luv it!
Thank you 😊
Hey guys I'm super excited I've been in the hobby for 2 years. And I am going to be doing a 5 gallon planted tank with a natural looking theme.
Forgive me when I first started I did not know because I live in Taiwan and I'm an American but in Taiwan they actually only put betas in a half gallon and they just get a few plants and some colored gravel when I researched in America I attempted to enlarge the size I even cycle the tanks and everything but the fish just kept dying which helped me to discover that the reason my fish were dying is because they're all male.
Sadly in Taiwan they're kept in drinking cups and they're not medicated right away they don't get Medicaid until they start getting sick and that's not what I would do honestly.
However it turns out but females can live up to 3 years or longer because they've been medicated immediately and they're kept in a tank all together.
So this tank but I'm creating is going to be for a female and I'm super excited because I'm going to be using egg stones and Driftwood and I'm just really excited but first I'm going to put a piece of aquarium background I'd like it to be black to give it a clean look.
I do have a RUclips channel but it's mainly just so I can have a record of my fish but when my projects done if you want to check it out please feel free to take a look it's going to be a while I'll be using only my right hand as I recover from a broken shoulder
I need help with my betta fish ;( HAHAHA its my first time owning one..
Ofc what do u need help with 😊
This tank Is too small for them, You can Keep 1 betta in there, With some smaller creatures like shrimp, snails, or some Endler Guppies, The poor Plecostomus is not happy at all in there, It hurts my feelings
If u watch the next videos I upgrade my tank to a 20 and now 40 gal tank they r no longer in a 10 gal
Please do more research when getting an animal!
Is the fish still alive ?
Are you doing ok in 2022
I’m getting a fish soon but apparently the one I’m getting doesn’t normally live long…-1 like=1 year-
My butifull betta fish was $3 lmao
holy S!ht I live 5 minutes from that store in lansing
I am so jealous 😂
remove carbon from filter
Did u cycle the tank?
Yes sir
Also its not "she" but "he" all long fins are male !
I did not know that thank you for letting me know 😊
54$??? for e beta?? Jesus u got scammed
You seem like a sweet girl.
