Fish tank re
Epic(explosion)
View
The person in the tub tank confirmed the tub is 8+ gallons! Which is a good size
Uh Chris, I got banned (for I think no reason), can you explain?
uh discord link doesnt work
Hmmm 🧐
"betta fish are not very active they don't need big tanks"
My betta when any person gets near the tank with food: *i am speed*
My betta literally at any sign of outside movement: *fat speed*
Seriously though, the only people with inactive bettas are people who have them in less than a gallon 😬 I’ve never had a betta that wasn’t active and constantly exploring its tank
Yup, same. Betta's are like puppies when u treat them right. Beg for food even when they are already feed.
Exactly! Out of all the fish I’ve kept, bettas are my favourite, they’re so interactive and have such fun personalities. They’re literally the cutest and are so rewarding when given the right living conditions.
Exactly! Both my bettas are so active and happy and always flare at their surroundings like little champs. I can't believe some people's bettas kept in tiny tanks that aren't heated or filtered... that my friend is why they come across as inactive. Poor liitle things :(
“can you imagine just existing, and the air around you is poison, and then you die.” this is why fish keeping seems sooo stressful to me. i’m so horrified of messing up and putting my fish through horrible torture
gay4patrick agreed
That's why cycling and a water testing kit are so handy. If anything you have some data to help you troubleshoot. That and Reddit has great aquarium subreddit.
Ti C how did i not know there was a subreddit for this until now?? thank you so much!!
I wonder what the world would be like if there was no ammonia
This is a mood
Idiots: “Betta fighting is only for entertainment. We don’t let them die in the end.”
Me: “Now repeat that sentence and tell me what’s wrong.”
AkamaruRocks your still torturing the poor fish
The first sentence is disgusting
I thought u said beta fishing... Now im sad
@Digicraftmon the Crystal Gem no like catching them with a net then releasing them
Literally saw it on Facebook like a week ago. So stupid.
Who even thought a fish water slide was a good idea tho
Me o wait I'm not 4
That would be Catch em all. I used to watch his chanel for the fishing videos but seems like all he does now is try to think of new ways to abuse fish for views.
Catch em all, he's one of the biggest assholes on this site and is a major animal abuser.
Gotta get them views
It was so terrible and made me feel nauseous
People: Fish don’t have personalities.... they are mindless
My fish when I walk into the room: *happiness noises*
UPDATE: Life situations have come up and I will be unable to take care of my oscars. I will have to re-home them after raising them for a year. I am at a loss for words. It’s like having to give away a dog. I’m going to miss them.
Mine too. One of my female angelfish litterally barks 😂 and swims up and down wagging her fins.
My fish comes to the front of the tank.
gammelfleischparty omg those were my first fish in the aquarium hobby!! I miss them but my oscars kinda made up for them....
@@soggybread6836 they are adorable 😍 but oscars too.
My first fish were bristlenose plecos. I've got a thing for plecos and catfish 😅
My first fish were danios, they are currently in my 55 gallon angelfish tank.
Betta: Hey, could I maybe have a bigger tank? I need to swim a certain length, I don’t think I have enough room-
Bad Owners: WHAT’S THAT? A *SMALLER TANK* ? BUT OF COURSE, HOW ABOUT THIS CUTE LITTLE CLEAR VINYL PURSE I SAW ON WISH FOR LIKE 5 BUCKS? THEN I CAN TAKE YOU EVERYWHERE!
The little girl from finding Nemo popped in my head
Betta Fish: * Vibing being beautiful *
Humans: Ight imma get you a .5 tank.
Betta Fish: Could you not.. please.
I feel so bad cause when we got ours, we thought we had two tanks but we didn’t, we only had one and it was slightly broken, so we kept them in 0.9 tanks for two months until they’re actual tanks finally arrived the other week and the fish are very happy
I really don't understand how people can abuse fish :(
It's so.... absurd. They're living creatures too...
Same. There seems to be a ton of fish abuse on Tiktok, and it's just sad. Like, how hard is it to take care of a fish tank? I'm a first time fish tank owner, and I own four crystal clear, fully cycled tanks, with happy, healthy fish. First time. So I don't see why people keep putting their fish in bowls, and doing horrible things. With proper care, fish tanks keep themselves clean for the most part, and it costs less to get a bigger tank than to go out and buy a fishbowl in some places
@@kristinayagmin5893 I know right! And I think it's sick how videos of people killing fish get more positive attention then those who actually care. I now have 3 Juvenile Axolotls (40 Gallon), 10 WCMM, (15 Gallon, have raised about 6 of them from eggs :D) 2 Male Bettas (one in a 5 Gallon and the other in a 12 Gallon) and one mystery snail (with the Betta in the 12 Gallon) and all my babies are happy and healthy in clean, planted tanks.
I completely agree! I don't know how people can even begin to think that a bowl is a suitable home for any living creature. Fish do 'feel', and they don't get nearly as much love and protection than other 'pets' It makes me want to scream when I hear someone say "Oh yeah, big spaces freak out bettas", or "Goldfish tank size is overrated" or see videos of people making "diy" fish tanks and putting a turtle in a plastic bottle. It's disgusting.
Because they can't bark, bite, speak etc.. when some bastard abuse animal no matter water or land, the always abuse the weak one, small dog or cat.. small fishes.. just try and abuse a lion or great white shark.. good luck with that..
@@Shiro_Kuma432 People have abused Lions, circuses are a good example. Every animal has been abused at some point, and it's just sickening that people such as the ones on Tiktok think it's okay
@@kristinayagmin5893 yes circus.. but normally they do it since the poor big kitty is just a baby, they can't hunt, don't know which one is right, they grow fear to the whip and many things else... if they take a wild one that circus thing would be impossible in my opinion
"That gold fish has ptsd from the vietnam war" made me choke on my lasagna
hehe
My 75-gallon aquarium changed so much ever since I started watching your channel. It was very barren with a moderate stock of fish. Rarely did water changes. Now, it’s a high stocked planted tank and now I’m putting a lot of time and effort into maintaining it. It looks so much better, too. I’m planning on setting up a second tank.
My grandma always wanted a betta fish, however, she wanted to put it in a bowl (it was about 0.25 gallons, and I couldn’t accept that. I saved up my own money and bought a Fluval Spec V. It isn’t here yet, but I plan on uploading it once I set it up, as well with the change in the 75-gallon aquarium. Thank you very much Chris, and keep up the good work.
Everytime I see betta abuse it makes me just sad, and happy I rescued my female plakat halfmoon betta, Athena. I have a friend whose mom had a beautiful halfmoon betta, but sadly put him in an Aqueon one gallon kit. By the end of his life, the poor halfmoon looked more like a crown tail, with swim bladder and inflamed gills. She later bought a female crowntail who also later died due to an ich infection that went on for a week without treatment. Then, after that, she bought an elephant ear male and a veil tail female. She put the two in a 30 gallon tank with other fish that aren't even compatible with each other. The male ended up killing the female betta and several other fish, and now he's awaiting the same fate as the very first betta. They moved him to that horrid one gallon, and his gills are already inflamed. Don't know why people can't just get bigger tanks. A 2.5 only costs $8 more in the US than the 1 gallon cost her, and the 2.5 would at least be a little better. Poor thing only has like 0.2 gallons of room to actually swim in because of the decorations and the filter
I ended up in a half hour spree of looking up betta fight videos to report. My heart hurts so much for those poor fish, but i reported as many as I could find.
I pissed myself off watching a video where someone pinch-grabbed a puffer fish to pick it up out of the water and puff up.
Decent person: takes care of fish (everyone ignores them)
FISH CLICKBAIT: everyone watches and person gets tons of revenue
Chris: all I do is exist
Also Chris: posting on his instagram him literally traveling all around the world
Fish abusers terrify me. Saw someone abusing a fish on Tiktok and I screamed
Tik tok is all about ratings by shocking behavior, established. You have a choice, stop watching tik tok
@@borisbuliak3626 And people have a choice to not abuse fish. I shouldn't have to stop watching a platform because of the select idiots that are using it. Its called reporting the videos 👍
They dont do much about it, which makes it worse
They dont do much about it, which makes it worse
Guys! Another goldfish was spared a smol tank today. I was in the lfs getting plants and making a special order when a couple came in to get a goldfish for their 5 gallon 😬 The manager convinced them out of a goldie and they went for a betta. Still praying for the betta but it has a better chance than a goldfish in there. The manager’s tactic that worked was telling them that goldfish produce a lot of waste than other fish their size (1 inch comet) and that they’d have to clean every day to keep up with it 😝
Perfect tactic: outsmart idiots
People abuse fish because they “can’t feel pain.”
They DAMN WELL CAN FEEL PAIN JUST LIKE ANY ANIMAL.
PaccoLazyGuy Productions - Broccoli you wut? Really??? Still wouldn’t want to harm one though 😒
@PaccoLazyGuy Productions - Broccoli And even if they couldn't feel pain; why hurt them? It would be completely physco. "I'm going to injure this fish or turtle because they cant feel it!"
@PaccoLazyGuy Productions - Broccoli Sorry, I replied to the wrong person. Never said that you hurt animals. Meant to reply to @Zanfish as I was building off of what they said
PaccoLazyGuy Productions - Broccoli uHM yes they very well can but okay
PaccoLazyGuy Productions - Broccoli 1. They have an obvious nervous system. 2. they legit can they can feel it just like turtles. It’s a fact. How about you look it up.
Me when theres a new episode of FTR:
C L I C K
8:30 the fish went into shock and they likely didn't dechlorinate the water.. I've seen it happen before :( People don't always realize they have to dechlorinate, and sometimes pet store employees will tell people "oh use bottled water, it's clean" WRONG it still has chlorine to make it safe for us to drink!
Omg how os betta fighting a thing quick CZcams search and a ton of videos come up. These people should be arrested for animal abuse if it was dogs they would. You should make a vide exposing these people doing this.
honestly, i let my cat fall into my tank once. i was there to pull him right out, but it taught him not to jump up on it. i wanted him to do it while i was there so 1) i could have the glass top off so he wouldnt break it and sent glass shards into the water, and 2) so i could pull him out immediately so he and the fish wouldnt get hurt. it was going to happen eventually so i supervised it.
2:55 that cat dont look cheap either
Me today: 2 hours late
Me usually: 2 years late
Pet shop owner: put them in after 2 hours
Chris:......😓
Tomos Gaskell Mine told me 24 hours, thank the gods my betta is doing fine after giving it some medication. wish i would of done some research, it is in a 20 gallon tank with 3 snails and 3 guppies and blowing bubbles
7:05, the planted tank I’ve always dreamed of.
1:43 at least where I live (Germany) the minimum for fishkeeping that is usually given is 54l (~15 us gallons) with few exceptions the most notable one being pea puffers. The nano tanks below that are mostly for shrimp and dwarf crayfish. They are also used for raising fry until they are big enough not to be eaten by their parents or tankmates.
i don't know who needs to know this but petco is having their dollar per gallon sale rn go have fun
Canada has no petco :(
Yep, i also was about to comment this. The best deal us the 75 gallon. Dont get the 90gallon. If you do the math the 90 is stupid crazy expensive even when half off. The 75 gallon is 100$ is perfect
Pet Suplies Plus just had theirs, I got a 10 gal. Still have to figure out what fish i want once i have it planted.
Oh cool what plants are you thinking of getting?
@@jesusm9385 I'm thinking a couple java fern, an anubias, some dwarf sag, some vallisneria to go across the back, and maybe a few dwarf watter lettuce. I've got my driftwood soaking now so plants and substrate are coming soon.
Betta fish: “Heck yeah, we are the prettiest fish in the fish hobby!”
Human: Puts them in a “fish”bowl.
1 week later- Human: “Why is it floating upside down?”
Humans deserve coronavirus
This is my first time on your channel. I love how knowledgeable you are and how you don't just belittle people for there ignorance. I hope to see your channel grow, for I have subscribed.
Yay thank you so much for rating my tank ❤️❤️❤️ just so you know my fat sleepers are native to were I live!!
People these days
Oh betta fish like really small tanks
They don't move a lot
Makes me mad 😠
Makes me mad too. I own a betta in a 5.5 gallon tank, filled with 3 gallons of water so the filter runs right, but she still has the length and width of the 5.5, so she's really happy, and her water is Crystal clear. My friend has gone through 3 bettas so far and it makes me sad. They all died of inflamed gills and other diseases
@@kristinayagmin5893 :(
I have two bettas, both who were pretty "weird" looking compared to the others, they are both veiltails and were dark and not beautiful flashy colours. The one went through so many diseases due to stress but he's finally stable and he's going to be moved to his 12 Gallon from his 8 Gallon QT Container soon. He now is this beautiful, shiny, midnight blue and is a real feisty little fella! The other one I got really recently and he was almost black, now he's turning a pretty shade of purple and will be moved to his 5 Gallon Planted tank from his 8 Gallon QT container. Modern day mentality is so sad, because you realize again how wrong these myths are. Both my bettas are so intelligent and active and gorgeous creatures.
i hate that people confuse animals liking to have cover and places to hide with animals liking small enclosures.
they don't move a lot
*my fish going from one end of my 5 gallon tank to the other at mach speeds*
@@kristinayagmin5893 I am so confused. Why don't you fill the 5.5 gallon? Obvi you leave some space at the top - I usually leave about a 1/2 inch to an inch of air space at the top. Why on Earth are you only putting 3gal of water in😕??
Edit: Just re-read your comment. Can you not fill up the tank properly because your filter won't run right? If so, I'd invest in a new filter!
"And their wild caught so that's extra cool" ehhhh.... I wouldn't say that's extra cool.
Depends. If these fish aren't home where they where caught, like some fish wich are invasive, and they are removed, than it's cool.
And keeping wild caught fish alive is a little harder than bred ones 😊
Im no fan of taking wild fish for the aqarium hobby, except these ivasive ones (i mean like the pleco problem from released tank fish)
To be honest I kind of like the lower rated tanks in this video (like the 4.1 pea puffer tank) they feel a lot more organic and like an actual sliver of nature rather than a still piece of art.
I used to have a tank when I was a kid, but things happened and my favorite fish passed away.
Your beautiful planted tank has inspired me to create a new tank in his memory. I probably won't put fish in it, maybe just a couple shrimp or a snail, but it'll be the nicest tank I've ever owned.
4:40 My mom got me that tank for my birthday when i wasn't very experienced with fish, but even i knew not to put fish in it. we still have it just for plants.
This ch is going to be huge in the near future. By far one of my favourite fish keeping channels on CZcams, keep them coming.
The more I watch these videos, the more I learn from other people’s mistakes. AND THE MORE I KNOW THE BETTER!!!
My dad and I have a huge rivalry when it comes to fish tanks
I've been trying to plan out my community tank and i've fallen in love with both rummy nose and white clouds in the last week. Can't wait til i get my new tank planted and cycled so i can get some.
2:40 when I know it’s time for the cat to go
Everyone should go report that betta fish fight video for violent and abusive content it is animal abuse after all
I’m glad to report that I have been unable to go report that channel because it no longer exist; so CONGRATULATIONS you took it down👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
“Fish tank re- *CATCH EM ALL* -view”
I just saw a ad with a little girl saying her fish is sleeping but it is dead floating on top of the bowl.
Stop putting bad fish care everywhere!
I was really concerned when I saw 12 views, turns out I was early! 😂😂😂
I don't even keep fish, but I'm always interested in learning about new things. Especially animals. Fish might be too much of a responsibility for me at the time, however one day I might give it a shot. Your videos are very informative and funny, half the time I dont even realise I've been watching for 10 mins due to the beautiful aqua-scape scenery and humourous education. You found your niche! And it's inspiring to others, which is what people need so desperately. Keep up the good work.
thanks so much. this comment is very meaningful to me!

That betta tank was at least 50 gallons to big
My Betta has a 54L / 14 gallons tank with lots of plants, tank mates and hiding spots. I cannot not understand maturity of people. But that goes far further than fish keeping. How many human beings have absolutely no empathy for other living beings scares me and makes me very sad!! But I think it needs many more people like you highlighting what not to do! Thank you for it! :-)
I turned a 5 gallon tub into a Betta tank because I wasn't allowed to get a tank for my poor Betta in a bowl. I made a diy filter with an air pump, a filter pad and a water bottle. That same day I got a heater with 3 rescue fish from my dad so I put them in my 36 gallon. Once they settled in I put my Betta in there because there was lots of space and it was heated. He is very happy today and will be getting live plants soon!
I literally just came home after picking up some supplies for my first ever saltwater tank. Found your channel this morning, and honestly? Loving what you do, dude!! It really helps seeing this series where you not only show off problematic tanks, but also rate viewer submitted tanks that not only look awesome, but show off some of what you should be looking for in your own tanks.
Haven't seen many saltwaters on your channel yet, but I'm loving everything regardless! Keep doing what you do, I may have to send in my own tank once it's nice and settled!
Cris offers the best constructive criticism on tanks. He minus well be the Gordon Ramsey of fish. I would love to see your salt water tank one day!
@@Scorpiorisingtwo
He sure does! I'm glad I ran across his channel, it honestly gave me some good aquascaping knowledge that I honestly hadn't thought of before. I'll definitely be sure to show off my saltwater tank once it's good and established! ♡
Best discus tank I ever saw was at a local chain store...can't remember the name...but they hired some professional aquascaper to design all the display tanks when it first opened, and the main display tank was about 6'x8'x8', had lilypads growing from the bottom of the tank to the top, and it was filled with thousands of neon tetra and a bunch of the nicest discus I have ever seen. The tank was only setup for a few months or so and the business went wasn't doing well and couldn't afford upkeep to the took it all down. I don't even know how many gallons of water and hundreds of hours of aquascaping all gone...and it just turned into a typical pet store for awhile before they went completely out of business. That tank was a beauty though.
I have my betta in an 8-gallon hefty plastic container. As well as a goldfish tank in a 55 Sterilite plastic container (currently 3 years going). I gotta say, I wanna see more people do some more plastic container tanks. It's cheap and effective, the only downside is the opaqueness and being prone to get scratched.
True, it may not look good the best but it's definitely better for the fish!
I want that frog tank as a 8 gallon! That would be sick
bought a betta which was in a traditional tiny cup, put it into my 65 gal and never seen a fish swim so much before! he’s the happiest fish
I have a similar tub for temp housing and quarantining fish or sometimes growing plants it is big and deep and works just fine. Also a cheaper alternative.
My beta is in a 3.5 gallon and i have a snail to! She loves it! She always zooms around :>
I use to run a tub for my Betta instead , was about 12 gallons , painting and framed it , made it an all natural pond looking style
8:36 his face tho
I decided to get a plakat betta so have been researching what I need to know compared to my barbs and tetra tanks.
So I put plakat in YT search...I was horrified by all the YT videos of betta fighting. It just boggled my mind. I found plenty of good info but just knowing there are people who film animal fighting for their amusement and post it on YT bewilders me.
Max Adam's tank at @7:28mins. His anubias are legit real, living plants. That "funky-looking" anubias you pointed out is Anubias barteri 'coffefolia' & yes, it's naturally-occuring variant of A. barteri from Cameroon. It's got unique leaf texture, almost leathery; rendering an artificial-looking impression due to it's seemingly carved look.
Great video Chris!!!!
6:02 when he said I see some crips I was oh shit the bloods are coming
Dude. I love your videos. They always remind me why I love this hobby.
4:06 love the rocket gar.
I’ve been waiting for the next vid lol. Thank you!
Love the video keep it up 😁
Probably the first time i've ever liked and subscribed after being told XD. I love this video, i'm glad to see someone who knows right from wrong in the fish world👍
thanks so much Maddi!
Love your videos!
You need more subs :))
Hey ! Very good video as usual I’m a huge fan.
Hi from France 🇫🇷
I used to have a 10 gallon bucket thing in the thumbnail for a betta. But it was temporary. So now he lives in a 29 gallon with some neon tetras and two nerite
I’ve always wanted a reef pond tank, basically a reef tank but like a giant pond so I can see all the fish swim around fast in the pond
Everybody else: 😐
Me who figures FTR comes out on Monday: 😎
Oh! Twelve year olds!! I’m twelve and just got a 5-gallon tank for my betta fish that I’m getting tomorrow. I put some toys in it, and cleaned a plastic hamster toy and some tank rocks to replace some other decorations and toys coming in a couple weeks. Hehehehhehehehhee so excited!!
Love the video!
I remember changing my Betta fish tank and I didn’t check the temperature before I put him in his temporary home, temp was too hot he started swimming upside down and stopped moving. I immediately put him back into his old one but he couldn’t move at all. the next day he started swimming again. I think that’s what happened at 8.50 where the water temp was off and they just dumped the fish in.
Your awesome thank you for your videos I love them!!
my betta went from a cup to a 5 gallon, and my other betta went from a cup to a 2 gallon to a 10 gallon the 2 gallon was a quarantine tank bc I do have a small school in my ten gallon.
im making a 3 gallon long tank with seiryu stone bucephalandra fissedens and stem plants you better like it lol
6:35 i have 3 opaline gourami (one male and 2 female) and 2 Angels in my 55G with a few extra fish. And that is what i would consider fully stocked. So if that tank is less than 55G. Then there's some upgrading needed. Also gouramis are territorial. So they want their scape to provide blocked vision. : )
very true!
4:30 it's the animal crossing froggy chair for fish
You are blowing up. Over the past month you have gained at least 3-6k subs
So I recently found out Betta are also called Siamese fighting fish. I've always wanted one except my large tank has my loved redfin black shark who is quite large. I also have a smaller tank that could hold a Betta except there is a single tetra in there who is the last out of 5. I don't want him to die so atm has just vibing. He seems happy but lonely.
I have a rock that does not react with acid or alkaline, but the rock itself is alkaline, can I put it in the tank?
First time watcher, subscribed. I enjoyed your content and your tanks look great.
That ”funky” anubias is real!! I got those myself
Hey Chris I love your videos. I am glad you posted when you did because I'm having a problem and a fresh video will help me get an answer faster. I have a female guppy that has a strange white fuzzy growth on her underside. No other inhabitants have this. I have taken her out to treat her for ich but nothing is happening. Is it maybe a fungal growth and if so how can I remove this. I already did a 50% water change. I just need suggestions, thank you.
Might need to go to google/reddit for this one... and search for similar symptoms...best of luck!!
1:46 Well at least here in germany it's forbidden by the law to keep fish in under 54l (~14,2 gallon) and I think that's goood
but no one really checks that so tbh you can do whatever you want
Good video, as usual
my teacher had a betta fish in a fish bowl because a student gave her the fish as a "gift" (don't give living creatures as gifts people), and my friend talked to the teacher about the actual care requirements. The teacher was dismissive at first, but by the end of the year gave the fish to my friend while only being a little bit upset about it.
1:21 I think this is a pretty good tank, the way to make it better would be to add some kind of lid to cover as much as possible of the surface to make any breathing through the labyrinth organ with warm and moist air.
I have used similar tanks, but bigger, as quarantine tanks at times when all my regular tanks are occupied.
I have one that is just over 40 liter, a bit over 10 gallons and one about twice as big.
It works for the weeks the fish is in quarantine, and for a betta, it's big enogh to be a forever home.
They are just butt ugly and a bit blurry for vision, so they are nothing you want to really view, but as a quarantine tank or raising fry, they are all good, and easy to store away when not needed.
OMG! Something I posted on Reddit appeared here. Why am I so excited? I'm McOctipus there; I posted about the goldfish and angelfish in the tank with the skull. Feel like a movie star!
hehe nice ^^
Aye bro I love this channel so much honestly
I totally agree that the bin setup seems ok. I would just put a lid
I'd accept a lower water level, betta are great jumpers but lets be honest they can't make it over absurd heights
8:37 the water of course. they put something on the water or the water is fresh while the fish is salt or vice versa.
Lol that betta fish fighting video must have gotten taken down can't find it anywhere! Another win for the fish community.
If you want a big cheap tub aquarium like the first one cause you want your fish to be happy but don't have a lot of money, pond tubs are available at your Local garden/landscape store 60 gal+ for under a 100. More reliable than glass tanks too.
7:33 it is an anubias coffifolia they look like this I'm using one in my own tank it is a very nice plant
Good video
Thankfully my local family owned fish store does things right even gives bettas tanks and have a 200 gallon salt water display it’s just a little out of the way
Keep up the great work my favorite Asian man
I swear the best part are the Catem all intros lmao
Tupperware tank is def better than small ass tanks. I use that filter on all my 20 gallon tanks. That cat video pissed me off but they kind of looked fake maybe? Idk. I've trained my cats to appreciate the fish as friends. I have one cat that is fish Lassie. He has saved two of my fish by coming to get me acting crazy when I had jumpers. He led me to the fish and they were 100% fine afterwards. The biggest problem I have with the cats is them trying to eat the fish food out of the jar.
