Automatic captions starting of with: "What's going on fish creepers..." This is gonna be a good one.

I just got a car, largely inspired by needing to buy fish for my tanks from Amazon. Now I'm driving the hour to Ottawa and getting to know our capital a bit as I visit the 7 PetSmart locations and 2 other fish stores. Some are from different eras, some are so identical I thought I was at the same one again. And I just found a bunch of interesting little guys at Big Al's that PetSmart doesn't have. Hillstream, Honeys, rabbit snails! Green Neons, dwarf cories, Purple Harlequins! Awesome staff at all. Fishkeeping is helping me come out of years of depression and despair and feel like myself again.

That sign should definitely be mandatory for any place that sells fish edit: That 3 gallon is mindblowing!

4:10 It's cool how PetSmart-type places can change, not from the top-down, but from the bottom up because of the young employees that work there and demand change. Keep up the good work PetSmart kids 💖🐟

Hey Chris! I'm a long time watcher and have a scaped tank myself. My dog has recently lost his vision and one of the things that was recommended to us to help him adjust was for us to play media for him when we aren't around. He seems to prefer FTR for the music and your voice. Since he's started listening to your channel he has been far more relaxed and happy. Thank you for helping our boy, Donny Donnowitz, feel like himself again.

13:30 the best time to take fish videos or pics is at night i just turn off the lights and sit on a stool in front of the tank for 30 minutes and the main part to get good pics is that u have to move with the fish to get good pics

I worked at Petco and was actually yelled at for telling a customer that I recommend at least a 5 gallon tank for a Betta instead of the .5 gallon bowl they had because "some people don't want to spend that much" then don't get a fish or a pet for that matter. They ended up getting a 10 gallon starter kit so still don't understand wtf

LESSGOO HERE COMES MY WEEKLY TUESDAY DOSE OF HAPPINESS

Our petsmart has tags for all their fish telling you how big they get along with some other basics. I was very happy to see that the smallest tanks they had were like 1 gal, and up to 5 gal they all have pictures of one betta on them. Some even had light flow filters. Maybe they're a mess still, but it at least looks like they're kinda trying.

Nothing completes my day like Fish Tank Review! Thanks Chris!

Started my Tuesday off just right

My Monday is made!

My son received a Betta in a cup from PetSmart, as a gift from someone who thought it was a great idea. And yes we're (mostly me) fish keepers. And we love Bettas. However we where looking to go in a different direction of species. But we knew we had one aquarium that would be a great home for this guy. It is a 31.5 gallon. That has a Buddha theme with ohko stone and of course, lots of plants, wood and thick substrate. Which is a aqua soil capped with soft sand. We think we is ok with this home we have made for him. He looks good and happy.

Floaters are great but sometimes I go with pothos or other plants growing out of the top for a cleaner look with less clumpy roots and equally effective. Depends on the esthetic I'm going for and whether or not it's a breeding tank. Floaters are a must for fry.

I found Java moss in my local pond and quarantined in and it looks amazing their is like 25 gallons of moss in the pond next to the shore

My only issue with the new Betta home is it’s proximity to the stove. Those beautiful floaters will be covered in grease quick and aquarium glass isn’t going tp handle any huge heat fluxuations.

Our local petco is pretty good too. They have size charts with tank requirements for the fish posted. Right to refuse sale posted and other signs .one example "pea puffers need other peas. Must be adopted in groups"

I forgot about that Keanu Reeves moment, so adorable. QOTW Not a shoe person but my Reebok Classic Legacy sneakers are my favorite, very cool colors. I don’t remember the official color name but they are various shades of teal/light blue with orange laces and accents. Very comfy, too.

My current favorite shoe (that I own) is the Nike Court Vision high top. Got them for Christmas.

QOTW answer would have to be any demonias with the "stack" platform. I'm 5'2 so they make me 5'9 and it's fantastic 😂

Oh! The first video is actually a rescue! That bowl wasn’t there, and if I’m remembering correctly, that one’s a temporary tank until he’s rehomed!

Qotw: fav shoes are my Doc Marten Chelsea boots. Real leather, so they’re water proof. I got the no slip tread, so great in bad weather. Just took a winter trip to Northern Japan and they kept me nice and toasty in the snow, and I live in Louisiana and so far no swamp feet. Also, they look great. Y’all, get yourself a good pair of leather boots. If you keep them maintained they will last forever.

My favorite type of shoes are those cursed separated toe ones. Look silly but they are freakin comfortable

1:51 "Who told you?" - like salvinia is some government kept secret 🤣 tbh my favourite floater, although I've only kept salvinia (forgot which one specifically), red root floaters (extremely sensitive IME), and the glitter of the aquarium hobby - duckweed.

That's why I love shrimp. They don't care about me being in front of the tank. They do their thing and I can just take videos or snap pictures of them being silly. :D

12:50 good sir, those are not glofish, those are painted glassfish QoTW: I don't remember the last time I wore shoes, I usually wear slippers (this might go by a different name depending on where you're from) or just barefoot when I go in the yard to touch grass. I have a pair of gray sneaks, some offbrand pair I got from lord knows where, maybe Ross, so I guess they would be my favorite lol

I'm currently in the process of setting up a shrimp tank and I will use live plants

my favorite shoes are my lems cause barefoot shoes make my feet hurt less, but a close second are my tuks witch are the exact opposite at a 3 inch platform

Air Force 1s laced nice and replace the soles with dr Schultz or some equivalent feels and looks good in my opinion.

So now that I know what hydra look like, I guess I need to figure out how to get rid of them. I've been noticing tiny, threadlike green things on the glass of one of my betta tanks, and wondering about them. I looked them up, and it says they can get in on plants or other decor, or even just with dust in the house. I suspect the last, because it's an open tank, and I haven't put any new plants or hardscape in there recently. I had no idea they could be so tiny, but I looked very closely and sure enough, that's what they are, alright. Crap. QOTW: I'm totally obsessed with sneakers and boots. I don't think I can pick just one favorite pair, though. I might be able to list my 10 favorites, but even that would be pushing it! Fishkeeping is one obsession. Fashion is the other. Oh. And cats.

I feel like decor should be more important than fun, though it is fun I've seen people get multiple fish species, and have one hiding spot that the dominant one controls. Also, that 3 gal long is awesome, I love long tanks

big fan of the air force walmarts

Lets go cory gang ...keep it up...

QOTW: any nike shows or adidas. Also Chris or anyone reading my comment, have you ever had your betta mantis shrimp a snail and then eat the flesh? Mine just did that while i tried to feed my assassin snail.

Never kept my predatory fish in bare tanks.. always planted and decored. Black aro's, peacock bass's, stingrays etc :) Harder work, but testing testing testing untill you find plants you don't give a flying pig for :P

This it the one part of Monday that’s good unless you have Monday off

Hydra will also take down shrimp. I've seen it with my full grown neocaradina. They ended up swimming all over the tank, twitching. And intermittently will fall and just lay, paralyzed... then repeat... until the hydra finishes them off.

QOTW: sneakers for the gym, driving the stickshift Subaru...Muck Boots for Tiny Farm Problems except for summer when I can wear ...river sandals in the kayak... Does a mermaid tail count as shoes????

Spent $30 on floaters from Amazon....no one told me goldfish AND platies eat them. They are gone. Gone.

I love my steph curry shoes omg they're amazing

Oh boy oh boy fish

the common pointed mud snail actually eats hydra so you don´t have to worry about them at all

My paddock riding boots are my favorite shoes

PetSmart is a place of extremes. Last week a PetSmart clerk refused to sell me 5 nano fish to add to my 22 gallon long planted tank with 15 other nano fish (neons and otocinclus). Said my tank was too small for 12 neons and 8 otos. I think it may have been a... tank envy situation.

My Oscar is in a 90 with a feather fin catfish they share the space well but I’ve been saving up to upgrade them to a 1000-2000 gallon L tank have always felt bad for my Oscar being in these large tanks he’s went from a 5gal when he was an injured baby to a 55 to a 75 to finally a 90 with his tank mate next will be the big upgrade

bro got an upgrade. also, WHERE ARE THE REAL HOSTS?!
