You never know what kind of Chris you're gonna get when you click on these. Sarcastic? VERY happy? Grumpy? Jealous because Rapashy is actually the host?
I think a lot of people mistake "will survive" with "perfectly fine." You can keep fish in cups and bowls, with no heaters or filters, they'll survive, but their life will suck and they'll die young. "The pet store said I only need this cup because bettas breathe from the surface." I facepalm almost daily in this hobby.
"One of our teachers ate bark..." Honestly, that sounds like a plus for a biology teacher. I have good memories of high school Biology class, since I had a teacher who was fairly passionate about it and Biology is the only one of the "hard sciences" that I find genuinely interesting. The subject which I consistently had the worst teachers in was History, including a college World History professor who straight up presented Evangelical conspiracy theories as historical fact. Oh, the joys of growing up in the American South.
Biology I always found easy. Cuz when u learn it, it makes sense so it sticks. But genetics in college is the reason why I switched my major from bio chem to just chemistry, cuz fck genetics.
Oh my God you’re so right about the bio teachers. They’re clueless. My 8th grade teacher didn’t know anything. She said that toucans could change the color of their feathers, and bacteria can produce spores. Even the dombest kids in my class knew that wasn’t true. Another great episode of FTR
A number of bacteria do produce spores. Clostridium and Bacillus species being the more notable ones. Ever heard of botulism? It’s caused by a spore-producing bacteria.
@@b.w.5828 Oh yeah! I’m well aware of that. She was talking about all bacteria in general. At this point, anything she says, I search it up to fact check it
Fair enough! I will admit I did try to look up the toucan one because frankly weirder things have happened. But I got nothin. Couldn’t even confirm a seasonal change of any sort. I’d really love to know how people come to such bizarre conclusions. And they’re often SO convinced they couldn’t be wrong.
@@b.w.5828 Yeah, part of that is the textbook’s fault. It literally said that toucans change the color of their feathers to blend in. It’s a teacher’s job to teach only true facts, so she could’ve at least fact checked it. The bacteria one’s on her though, she made that up all by herself.
Evil Chris be like: “ hello everyone, look at my beta fish, he loves his spongebob house and his tank is portable. He is so happy, he loves the colors!”
7:30 Hey Chris, just a little correction on your terminology: those are epiphytes, not bryophytes. Bryophytes are mosses, liverwort and hornworts. Bucephalandras are none of these, they are epiphytes (plants that grow ontop of roots, rocks, etc).
I got a driftwood bonsai for my tank and glued a small rock to the bottom of it. Just big enough to weigh it down but small enough that my panda cory cats can still fit under the "roots"
I love these videos, especially the “crackhead Craigslist” type “tanks”. I want to get a fish some day but I don’t have any space yet, so meanwhile I’ll be learning from videos like these. Keep up the good work man.
My biology teacher was a pe teacher who didn't like me for some reason so I was the only one who had a D in class. Everyone else got a B or higher and she never explained why my score was bad. I did work hard on my projects but I guess it just wasn't good enough since she didn't even bother to tell me what I did wrong other then saying it sucked. 😅😒
Y’all my biology teacher has a snake in a 15 gallon enclosure and two geckos in twig separate 10 gallon enclosures and then a bearded dragon in a 20. LIKE CHILL WOMAN. AND THE TANK SHE KEEPS THE FOOD IN IS BIGGER THAN THE ENCLOSURES FOR THE ANIMALS
I had one good biology teacher, she was an older ex military lady. She kept a giant bull frog and snakes in the class. I dont know much ab reptile keeping but she had huge tanks for both of them very nicely scaped 10/10 keep it up
Chris has inspired me to have another try at goldfish tanks, It’s a 29 gallon, with air stone, preset heater, filter set to high, and with java fern and Jungle val. I’ve mastered getting jungle Val to pearl, so even more oxygen for the young goldfish. Plus, I moved houses so my bathroom is super close for water changes! My first “fish tank” was for goldfish, but it was like 1.5 gallon bowl, That was 8 years ago, Now I can afford proper care. RIP, Magma, My first goldfish from Walmart. BIG OOF.
@@FishForThought I feel terrible, she lived to be like 3-ish, but she lived in a 1.5 then to a 10 gallon, but it wasn’t enough, Just shows how information changes over the years.
Just got my Hygger LED and Hygger Aquascaping tools from my local post-office! Excited for my rimless aquarium coming in soon! Your the only reason why I started this! ❤️🐟
In defence of biology teachers: in middle school our biology room had an aquarium and it looked really beautiful and cared for. Don't know, who did take care of it but the fish did look well. Maybe a little overstocked but it also had life plants inside. And no rainbow gravel 😉
my biology teacher kept 4 or 5 shubunkin goldfish in a 2 or 3 gallon tank with no filter and then later he took one out of the water for 5 minutes and he wrapped it in a wet paper towel and said it could "probably breathe"
Man, a biology teacher that doesn’t even know that fish breathe through gills and not traditional lungs which is one of the most basic things about animal biology
@doreendehaan2187 they can get some oxygen through their skin as long as they stay wet (their gills kind of stick together out of water and become much less useful), but most fish aren't adapted to survive that way long term. I imagine it's like using a little straw as a snorkel, you're still alive but it just sucks.
4:40 Most biology teachers know what fish need to live, but they won't give a damn about the care of it. I only one biology teacher that had a fish tank with proper filtration, taking measures of water quality and doing water changes. He was teaching us the nitrate cycle and fish scales. It was a very fun class.
I understand the Asian parent fishkeeping thing.I created a masterpiece planted tank (5g) put a few tetras and a sponge filter. And at the fish store he bought two lionhead goldfish and put them in.they ruined the tank. I did not know how to take care of them. They died the other day(tetras survived).If I tried to stop him at the fish store he would've slapped me. The Asian parent fish keeping thing is brutal like the walking catfish thing.(true story)
I actually had a great biology 2 and chemistry teacher in high school. He was very blunt and was always happy. One thing I remember best was how he showed us pictures from every national park (he visited them all) and there was a glacier with a rope fence sign that warned about falling ice in one he said "without fail, people die at this location every year and purge the gene pool of stupidity, "survival of the fittest" will be on the test."
just to make my case for biology teachers. so mine knows nothing about fish, but she doesn’t keep any either, so I think that’s okay. when she taught us the nitrogen cycle, I suddenly shouted "that’s why fish need a filter!" before quickly going "sorry, couldn’t resist." she didn’t get upset at me for interrupting, instead she admitted "well I don’t know much about fish, it’s okay," and actually let me talk for a bit. I managed to get "a filter is needed for the build up of beneficial bacteria, to do all that ammonia to nitrite to nitrate stuff" to my class.
in the first first clip those are climbing perch, its a very common farm fish in south east Asia. judging by the size it could be a farmer stocking a pond
5:20 biology teachers are actually pretty chilled and know what they're talking about. I took ap bio last year and my teacher was so passionate about biology, knew it, loved teaching, and was always excited to be there in class....even tho it was on zoom..... with no one turning on their cameras.... and no one answering the questions.... or laughing at the jokes she made.... maybe that's why she liked the zoom class now i suddenly feel bad for her
My biology teacher did not have any live animals in the classroom. She did, however, have an entire wall full of specimens in jars, every small animal I could think of.
When i first went to college, I went in as an education major, as i wanted to teach art and biology. Once i saw I'd be taking tons of classes on education and related topics, and basically no biology or art classes, i changed my major. Teachers don't know the subjects they teach because they arent inherently required to. They only need to know how to teach a subject, and unfortunately our education system seems to think regurgitating information off a PowerPoint slide is more than sufficient, no legitimate understanding of the topics you teach is needed. I have learned more from jobs, volunteering, books, and CZcams than I ever did or ever can in a classroom setting.
The only logical reason i can think of for someone to dump the fish out of water and let them flop to the water would be that because they have such a mass number, it allows them to single out the dead/ dying ones. The ones that are good to go get to the water, all they have to do is pick up the ones that didnt get there. Also: I had a biology teacher in like 8th grade and one of the kids was playing games and disrupting the class with it, and she threw the kid's laptop across the room and it broke. Idk if she ended up paying for the damages or not, but she was kinda crazy like that sometimes. She rode a motorcycle to school, so that was nice. XD
I like how you say that watching smart things almost makes you feel smart. That is my entire explanation for watching your videos. They are awesome and they almost make me feel awesome.
Been watching your channel for a while but decided to take a break of internet for the day and enjoy my birthday, glad to see this as the first thing I come back too!
Totally get what you mean about biology teachers. Some of them really don't know much about animals. I dealt with a guinea pig who had bumblefoot as a result of a bio teacher keeping him in a wire-bottomed cage. GP keepers KNOW that's a no-no, so a bio teacher should have known that before she included him in her classroom menagerie.
In 9th grade I had a science teacher that kept a turtle in very questionable conditions however at my school there is a biology teacher with a really cool fish tank that’s actually done right and he has lots of other cool pets that are kept well in his room but that’s the only biology teacher I’ve ever heard of who actually knows how to care for animals
Bruh same, my old science teacher had a baby red eared slider in a 10 gallon tank with no filter, no lights, just a couple of rocks and like an inch of water
In the first clip those were climbing perch they are perfectly fine. They are native in my area and often come onto land on their own and I have heard that they can survive out of water for nearly 10 hours
My science teacher in middle school had a collection of specimens including a fetal pig. Apparently he had collected them all from his students, occasionally A kid who lives on a farm would let him know that there was a miscarriage in the barn and his eyes would light up
My biology teacher has complete skeletons of different animals, dissected frogs in formaldehyde, wet specimens, mummified specimens etc, and a stuffed fish (trout or something) and she is the most sarcastic teacher I have lol
So... This week I learnt... Cherry shrimp can tolerate a wider range of water parameters... I even have a solitary shrimp running around in my recycled bucket of aquarium sand that I topped up with water just in case... Crs on the other hand need a goood filter...
My fish actually died yesterday... he died of old age and he was a angel fish. A beautiful white one, he was 2 years old almost 3 and he was from petco. I really loved him and I’m still sad of his death. I will never forget him and he always was happy to see me. He also had a playmate. He’s still alive but it will never be the same without him. R.I.P he was very much like the one at 4:20
When you're at the petstore for new fish,( i AM kinda saving them cuz they're in pretty small Tanks) and i see a mom buying her kid a bowl fish tank, coloured rocks, fake plant and a betta fish. *"Calm down calm down!"*
I just bought my first aquarium. I blame you and specifically Fish Tank Review. It's 15 gallons so I'm not getting a lionhead goldfish, walking catfish or anything like that. A betta will do.
My Biology Teacher was supper good, thought us really well despite having to memorize a lot of shit, like tissues, follicles, muscles etc, but I remember the lessons till this day.
The first video the fish is a climbing pearch. And they can live on land for 2 hours. That person just clean the pond.The guy that is cleaning the pond is a climbing pearch breeder.The fish is not to be a pet they be sell at a market and to become a delicious food.This fish is from south east asia.The locals catch them and cook them.
As someone who wants to become a biology teacher, I really hope that I can change the reputation of biology as a discipline 😭 Btw I have 2 aquariums that aren't sad little bowls, I actively try to educate people, including my peers about fish abuse, and encourage them to improve their aquariums. Additionally, I'm so sorry that your biology experience was like that, I hope the next generation of biology teachers (including myself) can raise the bar.
Even I know about pythons. Fortunately had a very good biology teacher in college. The thing sucked about his class was that he didn't create his own exams his student who is majoring in biology did so nothing ever sounded or seemed like what it was in the book. To academic. I had to pray through that class and take it twice. Still remember what I learned
there is a clear difference between knowledge and experience, because anyone with patience could learn to keep an aquarium healthy from try and error , but learning about fish keeping without doing it before hand is bad too so its best to have both knowledge and experience so do a lot of research minimum 4 hours before getting a new fish species then learn from your mistakes over time building up experience
I am planning to get a really really good maybe betta fish tank I am just happy to watch your videos to help myself get a fish tank knowledge of yours is amazing.Thanks Chris!
I wonder if the gourami was in QT? Still think that tank is too small, even for QT, but the tank it's in, doesn't look like it's actually scaped, maybe a picture background instead. Tank looks completely bare... Maybe even a salt or med dip? 🤷♀️
So true most biology teachers have no clue about the subject. My high school teacher tried to convince me that dolphins are fish because the live in water....
I found a tank on CZcams clips, posted it on ftr on petscord. It was a small tank, probably less than 10 gals, and a young arowana in it. Barely enough room for it to turn around.
7:18 this tank is a way to small for all these fish. The little Basses need at least 112 liters and the little catfish must live in groups with at least 7
I was biologie teacher ! And i have 5 planted tank with guppys, corydoras, ancistrus (bristelnose), cherry barbs, 3 colors of neocaridina shrimps, and we have a nice red betta at the school i'm working (my New job is to go go school with kids having disabilities and help them)

That person just clean the pond.The guy that is cleaning the pond is a climbing pearch breeder.The fish is not to be a pet they be sell at a market and to become a delicious food.This fish is from south east asia.The locals catch them and cook them.
Thank you for explaining!
Have you ever considered a cichlid community tank? Maybe colorful african ones or like a school of convicts
Yay it's Monday!! I asked my hubby come into my fishroom to help me run a test to make sure my tanks are large enough......😯😆🤣🤣
hahaha Well did you pass the test?!
Buhahahahhaaa!!
8:40 lol such a line.
Jokes on you Chris. That was a Lion-Chu Goldie, not a lionhead nor a ranchu.
I never new that fish needed water! They do?😂😂
So the main host repashi took the day off this week
8:27 looks like when you keep a fish in animal crossing
Edit: oop never mind. He said it already. 💀
seriously these ftrs are one of the highlights of my monday
Me too
As someone who wants to become a biology teacher, I really hope that I can change the reputation of biology as a discipline 😭 Btw I have 2 aquariums that aren't sad little bowls, I actively try to educate people, including my peers about fish abuse, and encourage them to improve their aquariums. Additionally, I'm so sorry that your biology experience was like that, I hope the next generation of biology teachers (including myself) can raise the bar.
Even I know about pythons. Fortunately had a very good biology teacher in college. The thing sucked about his class was that he didn't create his own exams his student who is majoring in biology did so nothing ever sounded or seemed like what it was in the book.
To academic. I had to pray through that class and take it twice. Still remember what I learned
there is a clear difference between knowledge and experience, because anyone with patience could learn to keep an aquarium healthy from try and error , but learning about fish keeping without doing it before hand is bad too so its best to have both knowledge and experience so do a lot of research minimum 4 hours before getting a new fish species then learn from your mistakes over time building up experience
I am planning to get a really really good maybe betta fish tank I am just happy to watch your videos to help myself get a fish tank knowledge of yours is amazing.Thanks Chris!
Thanks for the heart Chris!!
I wonder if the gourami was in QT? Still think that tank is too small, even for QT, but the tank it's in, doesn't look like it's actually scaped, maybe a picture background instead. Tank looks completely bare... Maybe even a salt or med dip? 🤷♀️
Got a female betta in a 10 gal today. Thank you for getting me into fish Chirs.
Just submited my tank! Cant wait for the next episode
Love from malaysia
That last post got me in question. But good video today. 🤣🤣🤣
So true most biology teachers have no clue about the subject. My high school teacher tried to convince me that dolphins are fish because the live in water....
Water changes at weird times hit different
A lionhead goldfiah is expensive than a walking catfish ~ chirs 💫
I want a fish tank that never runs out of * Finish my sentence please 😆❤️
The first video looks like walking gourami/climbing perch.
I was always a saltwater tank dude but when I saw you I want a pretty nice planted tank now
I found a tank on CZcams clips, posted it on ftr on petscord. It was a small tank, probably less than 10 gals, and a young arowana in it. Barely enough room for it to turn around.
Wow this is amazing I just got my first tank a few months ago and will submit it on scapism
My gourami are enjoying a 20 thousand litre ground tank
7:51 I believe those are balloon rams but that doesn’t change the fact it’s overstocked and most likely going to a fighting ring
My biology teacher was also the religion teacher in middle school. She knew nothing about caring for the animals... it was bad.
7:18 this tank is a way to small for all these fish. The little Basses need at least 112 liters and the little catfish must live in groups with at least 7
1:20 climbing perch maybe?
6:40 straight outta Compton
The sponsorships were long enough for me to make my morning cereal and cheese
Me: The aquatics enthusiast becoming a biology teacher o0o" WELL THEN- how could you fish man
That's a climbing Perch very invasive in other countries
Every time u see a tank that is horribly overstocked or is just horrible, do u think of all the amazing things that u could do if u had that tank?
1:06 They are Climbing/Walking perch (Anabas testudineus,) not Walking catfish (Clarias batrachus.)
I was biologie teacher ! And i have 5 planted tank with guppys, corydoras, ancistrus (bristelnose), cherry barbs, 3 colors of neocaridina shrimps, and we have a nice red betta at the school i'm working (my New job is to go go school with kids having disabilities and help them)
