Thank you so much for this video! It really helped me, I got 2 high quality Betta fish sisters and they r healthy I got them from a breeder, aqua i was thinking on going to the store and until I watched ur vid and I realized buying from breeder is better thanks so much
They're name is bubbles and luna
Overwhelmed with your comment, I’m glad, video was helpful to you. Wish you the best. Happy Betta keeping! Lovely names! ❤️❤️❤️
I chose the saddest sickest Betta fish . And named him scuba Steve he’s beautiful now his baby fin is growing in so beautifully. And he’s very sweet boy. Any betta deserves love .JMO :)
Happy to hear! Glad he finds you for better life. ❤️🫡🫡
Same same😊 mine is named Harold…he’s soooo sweet!
I did the same thing with my betta but I’m probably overly worried about making everything perfect for him, I’m even getting a separate tank just for him to have live food lol.
@@mclovin2408 I sadly lost scubba Steve . Now I have red and he has endlers and guppies . He’s very chill also ghost shrimp nirate snails and 10 gallon he’s happy . 😊
Ah, heartbreaking. Do you know why it didn't work? I have a fully equipped, heavily planted 20 gal black water tank w/ a mystery snail waiting for a rm mate. Do you recommend just trying for a healthy fish rather than taking the risk?
2 weeks ago, i bought my first betta after lots of research. i set up a 10 gallon tank, heater, sponge filter etc. i had only picked live plants after reading abt the benefits. i made the mistake of buying my fish from a chain pet store. he passed today & i blamed myself until seeing this video. i've realized what to watch for in betta behavior and now know he was probably suffering from illness of some kind. i'm going to continue my research before keeping another & this helped tremendously
Thanks for generous comment. Unfortunate to hear about your first betta. But trust me, it happened for almost everyone. Wish you the best on your next betta friend.
That's why I like to buy from aquariums
Sorry for your loss
While I didn't buy my betta fish, I did rescue one. My betta fish was a class pet that was mostly impulse bought by a student. I got him and gave him a 5 gal tank, live plants, a heater, a filter, water conditioner, and a place to hide. I didn't do everything right though (I didn't cycle the tank.) Still, he is definitely better now and if you want to see him, he's on my CZcams channel.
👍👍❤️
i didnt fnd ur video
put link pls
I was not planning on buying a Betta fish but I went to a well known pet store and saw them in a small cup. There was a Betta with long fins and it could barely move. I got him and another Betta fish. On the same day, I got 5gal tanks for each and everything else. Lesson learned #1- Bettas do not like strong currents #2- Water conditioner is needed #3- They need a heater #4 - They prefer wide tanks rather than tall/long tanks to swim #5- They like natural 🍁 🍃/betta log.
Wow! You nailed it. 💯 agree.
Wish I would’ve seen this video sooner! My betta turned out to have fin rot once I bought him but it thankfully got resolved. Thank you for sharing this!
Thank you! Pleasure is mine. Glad you are able to recover your betta from finrot. 👍
How did your Betta recover from fin rot? I think mine may have it and I don't know what to do. He probably came from Petco, so he is poorly bred. His two side fins look a bit odd.
it would be helpful if u tell the method of treatment
I just subscribed now. I met a beta fish last week at petco. It was just resting at the bottom of the small cup. The fish got really excited when I walked up to look at the fish and gave the fish attention. When I walked away, the fish floated back down to the bottom of the cup. Then I came right back and the fish seemed really excited to see me again. I wanted to buy the beta fish, I'm 3 hours away from the pet store. I wasn't sure if the fish would make it home with me. Now I'm researching beta fish to learn how to take care of them. I sure do not like the small cups they have to live in.
Yes, they can survive for 3 hrs drive, it’s not a problem. Consider 5 gallons minimum. May be this video helps on basics. Good luck!

@@aquadiaryofficial thanks.
This video really hepled me get my 3rd Betta fish, since iv had previouse experiences adn thsoe past fish lived great long lives. I wish i saw this vidoe earlier and spread it to my peers:)
Glad I could help! Thanks for sharing with others. It helps betta community! ❤️🙏
Thank you so much for making these informative videos i just recently got a female betta fish 5 days ago and i love her alot ❤😊
My pleasure! Glad you like them and recognized the efforts spent to provide informative content. 🙏🙏
Very good video. Just set my first tank up and waiting for it to cycle. It is a 6.6 gallon. I don't have a Betta fish as yet so what you presented in the video what very helpful to me. Thank you!
Glad to hear it’s helpful! Thanks for commenting 👍👍
Thank you again for teaching me how to take care of my betta fish.
Our pleasure! ❤️👍
Plakats are the hardiest types
I would suggest starting with plakats for any new betta keepers
Agreed
Short-finned bettas for the win!
All useful information but I personally would add a bit more info on different types of betta fish, both so the viewer can know about them and decide which they like best, but also to let them know about possible health problems they might have, like how long-finned bettas often struggle from their fins being prone to damage and disease, while short-finned bettas tend to be much hardier and more active
Edit: on a related note, some people claim that certain types are more or less aggressive than others, and while it is true that aggression can be genetic, it’s not an exact rule and there are numerous exceptions
I know one fish keeper that had a very feisty halfmoon and a very peaceful plakat, for example, even though these are considered the least and most aggressive types of betta respectively (I personally think this mindset comes from how halfmoons have giant fins that slow them down and keep them from going after tankmates, even if they have an aggressive personality [which was actually the case with this one], while plakats have shorter fins making it much easier for them to chase after other fish in the event they act aggressively)
Great insight, helps many beginners 👍
@@aquadiaryofficial Thanks! Can say to same to you
Thank you for this video. It helped me too. I got a male betta fish which had beautiful, vibrant colors like pink, crimson, purple, blue and white. I named him Rosetail and he is really active. And also he is 6 months old.
Also I found out he is a Elephant Ear Betta Fish breed.
Thanks! Glad you like it. ❤️❤️👍
Actually I have a smart betta fish. As this is day 3 in my house for Rosetail , he can recognize me, follow my finger. I am really shocked to see him do this at day 3 at my house.
I've been looking at all sorts of betta fish content on youtube
Since I'm planning on getting one myself
Good luck! Aqua diary gives as much info needed. Let’s also know, if you need to know about specific topic. 👍👍
❤thank you so much! I will subcribe so i can get more information on my new bettas! 🎉
Welcome to Aqua Diary Squad! Happy Betta Keeping! 🙂❤️
Every betta is better in its own way❤
Yes, it’s same as every dog breed is good it own way. But we choose what we like/suits more. ❤️👍
👍👍
❤❤
I used to choose bettas that reacted to me, regardless of their health condition. But after a few times of that, I decided that if I could only take one at a time, that I should give the healthiest a chance instead, since there was no way for me to bring them all home. So now I don't fall for the industry's trap by supporting their bad husbandry. Now I only dish out money for the fish that got adequate care. I'm so done picking after their sloppiness and spending extra money for the extra care that goes into an initially sick betta.
I want to spend all my money on a healthy fish, in its enjoyment, not its medicine.
Thank you for the video, as that's exactly how I chose my last betta, a young female with healthy scales and eyes, and perfect fins. Now, she's having the time of her life in her own aquarium and I am having fun keeping her ❤
Thanks for your comment! It makes lot of sense. I’m also thinking about creating video about petstore chain trap. But afraid of content strikes.
@@aquadiaryofficial I totally understand!
Once again great video and information can u do video about new strin betta 2023 there is no channel make content like that 😊 thank you
Yes I can. Thanks! I will do that soon. ⭐️⭐️👍
Which led and filter you used on these curved nano tanks? Love your channel!
Can you help with exact video time that shows specific tank? I have used few tanks and containers in this video. Thanks for that love! Glad you like it. 🫡🫡👍
My first betta fish was a bit lethargic at the start but it got more active as it grew
Good to know. Usually bettas takes time to settledown to new environment
Probably because it was a baby giant
betta fish
I can’t wait to get my first betta. I have studying hard video after video from different channels. How to care a betta, choosing a betta, how to maintain it, bond with it and etc. I saw so many bettas in my recent visit to chain pet store. Ik its not always the best option but I also want to give them a chance to love and happiness to save them from a crucial environment. Im also looking into breeders too if I can’t find the one I’m going for.
Good luck! Wish you the best.
I missed my Betta Spartacus..I named him that because he is a gladiator to me..he died around 4years old..I bought him when he was a juvenile sized..all his comrades Betta who I buy after him only last for 2 years but Spartacus outlived them..now I have a new betta and I named him Hanzo the shrimp killer🤣🤣🤣💯💯💯
I must say, you have cool names for bettas. 😁❤️❤️
I lost my white female Crowntail to Dropsy 😢 so after some deep cleaning I went to my local Pets Mart and found the saddest one I saw. I ended up with a all black girl. Her name is Gilly and after two months she’s doing well.
We all learn better fish keeping this way. Great to hear she is doing well. Happy betta keeping!
I think she was the the runt because I still have to crush up her food. She spits out every mini pellet I try.
I e you still have her. Get Fluval Bug Bites & presoak for a couple minutes. They are all insect & she'll LOVE them. Also, get on net & ck out frozen bood worms, etc.😊
I owned a blue betta fish in a comiunity tank and he was the most chill betta ive ever had
Cool, Some boys are really well behaved
I chose a betta fish that is turning white(I know it’s because of the poor water quality)so and I took him in and got him everything. Now he is slowly turning to his beautiful red again
❤️❤️❤️👍
My new betta has different colouration on his head and gills , there r pink/purple circular spots in his head and gills look dark purple
btw his body is mostly pinkish white with dark red tails
I initially thought it maybe ammonia poisoning from the store but they r still exsitent after more than a week of keeping in my quality tank
but the betta is otherwise healthy and extremely active except the unusual colourations on the head and gills
any advise? p.n : the colourations r not bumps but only colours
Honestly its hard to tell without photos. But white tail with red spots on edges symptom for finrot. faded coloration on head and gill possibly velvet/fungus infection. But i can be absolutely wrong. I suggest to post the picture my social network groups or tag on instagram to help better. details in description.
I have a question is the serra betta granules a good pellet tp feed betta fish?
Usually, some pellets have more wheat flour which is not good. I would suggest check the ingredients and see whether it makes water cloudy to decide on quality.
betta master
Haha! 😁😁
You are best IN BETTA fish matters. 💙💙💙💙💙🐠🐠
That’s a great compliment bro! Thanks for the support! 💙💙👍👍
I’m trying to get some tank mayes for my beta, any suggestions?

I don't even care what betta I get as long as its not dead I'll buy it. Gotta save some bettas out there
❤️❤️❤️❤️👏👏👏
Can I put my plakat betta with angle or serpae tetra because this fish nipping my half moon betta so I want to know they fish can live with plakat betta?
If it’s fin nipping, they likely to nip plakat betta as well. But usually plakat are fast moving them bigfin betta. It’s based on your tank size, personally I don’t keep betta with any fin nippers as their tails are fragile.
@@aquadiaryofficial and what about female betta because there fins more small?
I got a beautiful orange and blue beta fish and got him all set up in a 5 gallon tank with a filter and a heater with a thermometer that I monitor.
After about a month, my beta’s tail is gone and I am trying to find information on what to do. It breaks my heart. He still eats well and is very responsive. His water is clean and I side the proper water conditioner. I wish I could find someone around here to help me find out what is going on. I am so afraid for him to die. :(
I have had betas before and this has never happened. I doubt I will ever get another one after this. It’s heartbreaking.
Possibly tailbite, nothing to worry. Check this video. I did talk about tailbite in it. It happens when betta get stressed sometimes. czcams.com/video/G0jGpFEYtQA/video.htmlsi=GX2XBZsKUT6raWUN

Oops. I made a suggestion before seeing your response. Apologies. 😢
Never mind. It's not there. Phew
I had a question. Is a Koi Candy Betta Fish a community living fish?
No, it’s based on betta aggression level. Generally, koi candy are aggressive. But they can live in community tank as long as tank is big and tank mates suits your betta
I only choose the samoerai ones.
👍👍❤️
How will we find if the male betta is perfect for breeding cause last 4 betta I bought was of no use
This video talks about how to pick female and male betta fish for breeding. But if it’s failed for 4 times, I would stop buying from same store or breeder. czcams.com/video/RdAUo3U3yXk/video.htmlsi=dfxjaNOOHJPT_vB3
My betta is in a 30 gallon tank.
Where can i buy those dividers?ty
Which one bro? Can you pointout the exact minute you are referring?
Every betta is the best betta?
My beta is 1 year old and it stays on a bowl aquarium and I noticed that it decolorized
It is ok?
Bettas don't do well in bowls. They can survive, but it's by no means a thriving, happy existence. They need heated, cycled 5-gallon yanks with some form of filtration. Go watch aquarium co-op's videos on how to care for a betta.
Decoloring is sign of betta is stressed.
Is there any breeder of betta fish here where i can buy one , pls message me. Ty
Reach me in FB or Instagram detail provided in the description 👍
Can i put a red male and blue female betta in a tank
I don’t suggest unless you intend to breed them
my betta would now sudenly start flaring frequently now whats going on
May be he is seeing his reflection on the glasses. Check the light angles and make sure, no reflections. 👍
Do you know where there is a good shop for betta fish
It’s depends on where are you from my friend. Which country are you from.
Iv seen bettas make nest in cups
Yes, they do.
@@aquadiaryofficial Yh people thick it’s sign of happiness
Thier colors don't decide their aggressiveness at all bro.
Ofcourse yes! But it’s because blue and red bettas were genetically modified for long time and generations after generations.. you may see them naturally aggressive due to captivity breeding. It’s says by betta congress. 👍
@@aquadiaryofficial Thank you for replying! Most of betta in the world has been provided from Thailand even now. They don't always keep same blood in their breed. And as we see guppy which released in a river always gets back to original color. Even if the origin of story was as your story, Thier aggressiveness must have got back to origin already.
And I haven't seen such difference of aggressiveness with color.
i have seen some breeders tagging reds as aggressive. So its not a myth. Its like cats and dogs, some breeds are more aggressive.
@@sariel8406 Regardless of color they are aggressive. And their aggressiveness is individually different. Myth could be viral as this video as people do it without statistics data.
DNA tends to go to origin through breeds over time. This is statistic data. It is evidenced with a lot of breeds as guppy in river. And usual breeder work is also same. As they do not focus on aggressiveness, same thing happens.
@@sariel8406maybe this is because in trying to ensure the best genetics in early days of domestication, they allowed the more aggressive betas to breed only as non-aggressive ones may have been deemed weaker/sick so it's just become smth strong in the breeds?
I brought the most unhealthy and now they are extremely healthy and happy
Cool 😎
2:03 what kind of Betta is this?
It’s Nemo candy plakat!
@@aquadiaryofficial needed this, thanks👍
where's the bell?
i dont know why my koi betta never flaring
More detail please. Is that new? Male or female?
I think my Betta fish doesn’t like me
Haha! Same story here.
I prefer ones with smaller, more natural fins. I just feel bad for those disabled overbred guys who can barely carry own fins
Yes, shortfin are known called plakat betta. They are faster, swim freely, less vulnerable to disease.

Where I could find one of those betta display rack?
Most are custom made. But you can find online based on your country.
