do you have to redo it every once in a while to refill oxygen?

I had a nightmare that someone surprised me with fish for my birthday bc they thought my betta was lonely in her 5gal. There were tetras, corydoras, guppies, raspboras, gouramis, and like 5 other bettas. I spent the rest of the dream trying to return them to my LFS, before they killed each other, without getting banned forever for being a bad fish owner. FTR is infiltrating my nightmares.

Mohawk, but a stylish one. You've got this, it's your new dorsal fin! Cory gang for life!

I've completely switched to Saltwater but I'm tempted to setup a 10 gal with an upside-down plastic bowl the fish can swim up in. The only time a fish should be in a bowl is when they can swim out in to more water =)

I had the filter leak thing happen to me like a month ago I noticed right away though and there wasn't any real damage to the stand. Scared me though. Very protective of my 3 year old African dwarf frog.

I like it and love that the betta actually swims up there. I still 30 years later feel guilt from having a betta in a fish bowl, from not knowing better. Lulu was loved and lived a couple years but the guilt of it remains.

Love the content! I'm a first-time fish keeper and you're channel has helped me understand and love proper betta husbandry so much more!

I had A LOT of dehydrations headaches when I was younger. I didn't know how to tell when I was thirsty 🙃 Still don't, really, but I have better hydrations habits. Anyways I ALWAYS take pain killers to get rid of my headache, AND make sure I'm eating sufficient food, hydrating, not staring at screens, fix whatever caused the headache. Just fixing it and resting isn't enough. If I take a nap with a headache I wake up in more pain. If it works for you it works for you! MY ADVICE THOUGH If you have nausea, eat some ginger/ginger candy, or drink ginger tea. I've head mint also helps nausea... Haven't tested this myself Warm or cool rag over the eyes or on the back of the neck/base of skull can be relieving if you have pain in those areas. Neck/base massage can be relieving. If you need to rest your eyes but can't stand the boredom: podcasts or audio books! Maybe just music if that's sufficiently entertaining to you. Hopefully you don't have to deal with many more headaches tho 👏👏 Stay hydrated ofc (:

My friend got me into loving fish keeping so I’m glad I have a channel where I can do a bit of research (I have done other research specifically in bettas though)

Thank you for your wonderful reviews every week, these are entertaining to watch while I draw on my tablet, and I learn a few things from it, too! :)

Day something i forgot and will have to check later. I WILL NEVER STOP WATCHING FTR

Chirs, check the hang on back filter before thinking the tank is leak, i had a hang on back leak and almost thrown the tank out, but the hang on back dripped heavily

Just got back from a 9 day vacation and found my anti-aquatic Nerite, houdini, in the filter flow of a different tank. Nbd. Just wondering how he got out of my Fluval Flex with a feeding hole sealed. 🤷‍♂️

I rescued a betta (with fin rot in a mason jar) from my neighborhood free group on FB. She's in a 10gal with filtration, heat, treatment. I'm so inspired to replace her plastic plants and maybe even a lookout tower if I can make it work. Thanks for showing me that she deserves even more than the "rescue" I made for her!

Hi Chris, thanks for being such a great youtuber, you inspired me to start all of my own planted tanks. Thank you❤

we have stickle backs native in germany too and few months ago I managed to catch a fired up male during the breeding season. He was very calm so it was easy to catch him by hand

It's my birthday today! Just wanted to say thank you for such fantastic fish content!

Woohoo!! Happy FTR Monday everyone!! Wishing everyone who may see this an absolutely amazing and fantastic week! Go forth Cory gang/ FTR fans, get your hands good and dirty and cuddle some wet and non wet pets!! 🙏💙✌️ Chris, getting rid of a headache; one cup coffee or other caffeinated bev + 1 aspirin. That's exactly what's in those Exedrin headache pills. The aspirin caffeine combo is 👌 for dilating the evil dread brain vessels and reading the pain. -fav hairstyle; anything my grandma would've called "wash and wear" meaning you don't have to add a bunch of product or spend an hour using electric hair appliances on😅.

Oh my god that is so cute, he has a little bed and a perch to look at you from. Cutest betta tank I’ve seen!!

I just got back from vacation when I got your most recent video notification!! Now I gotta catch up!! This is gonna be one heck of a Monday!!

i have chronic migraines- apply peppermint oil wherever you are feeling pain. also, cut a small chunk of ginger root (pill size). drinking chocolate milk with it makes it much smoother going down. i know it sounds weird but trust me it saved my life and doesn't give me the same side effects medications do.

this was good and refreshing to watch as my prize eba (electric blue acara) just passed this morning when I was at work was 2.5lbs shark bait was my first bigger boi cichlid

Yea my Neon Tetras are ridiculous not only will they not touch food once it hits the ground they will swim back up to the top and look at me waiting for me to put more food in the tank. My Albino corys meanwhile are having a party down below lol

I have a tank set up with a couple blacknose stripers I caught locally. And it's set up with wood, rocks and gravel from the area I caught them!

My favorite hairstyle is Liberty Spikes Mohawk. Silver lining: Perches for Repashy and Milly.

You gotta check out rainbow darters. They are so cool. They around beautiful nein rainbow colors and sit in the bottom and hop around and they are super curious.

Oh man i know your pain! I was one night awoken by the sound of splashing water. I looked in shock when the top 3-5 inches of water were gone. It turned out my HOB overflowed and it got on to the floor. Everything got wet. Grabbed the wetvac and cleaned it all up. I recommend a warer alarm. It uses 2 metal prongs next to each other that conduct small amounts of electricity when water connects them. Lifesaver.

I had a HOB that got clogged up because I put filter floss in it and it was running out the BACK of the filter and I had no idea because it was so slow it was being soaked up by the curtain on the window it was in front of! That curtain was soaked!!!!!! It was so heavy!!! Still better than leaking out onto the floor. That is, since I figured out what was actually happening! LOL!!!

Won't cure a headache, but lessens it. Take your thumb and index finger of your dominant hand and apply pinch pressure to the 'meat' of your other hand in between the thumb and index finger. You'll feel a slight tension release from the headache.

The thumbnail tricked me so bad Lol😊

my kitchen tank has a bunch of guppies and a giant guppy that might have been a betta once but is definitely a guppy now- every now and then I overfill it and it'll be leaking on my counters and I panic as hard every single time. Terrible feeling. qotw- in university I had a mowhawk that I always dyed a neon red or blue. I have an office-ish job now so I keep it a bit longer and to my own natural very dark brown. I do a fauxhawk with small designs or lines cut in though, and the first week or so after a cut is the best.

that is an amazing betta fish tank. it has a little above-water-level betta patio, this betta can see above it's tank. that's so amazing. I do know a few headache remedies. a shot of ginger, you'd need a good juicer. its got a kick but is great for you. a spot about two inches from the inside of your wrist, i saw a video of a guy doing it and it works. if you rub that spot for about 30 seconds it should help or switch to the other arm. Also if i have a headache sometimes i massage the bottom of my feet. or you can look up home remedies for a headache. thanks for sharing your Betta tank. I love it. I'm still struggling with mine,

I am going to try that viewing tower. That was amaze balls.

Hey Chris! I’ve had an aquarium since I was a kids but never really was a hobbyist about it. Recently I lost all motivation to try and make it looks good and I feel so bad for the fish😢 they live in an algae filled tank but I just can’t seem to want to do anything about it! These videos def inspire me and I think I’ll go clean the tank to let them live out their life in a nice tank! Then I’ll probably throw everything in the tank away and start fresh with a Walstad tank that has 1 dwarf gourami and few neon tetras, maybe a Cory Dora or other bottom dwellers! The tank is a 10 gal btw so I’m not sure if it would be overstocked with the gourami and neons and Cory Dora’s! LMK your thoughts. Yes I know restarting the tank will make the process longer but I’m like that where I can’t seem to fix stuff if I feel it’s beyond hope I rather just start over and do it right…

I get migraines and a help for them is some ibuprofen / paracetamol and then some apple juice / honey or something sweet like that and then stay in a dark quiet room for a lil bit until it eases off, headaches / migraines never dissapear until you sleep.

I caught a saltwater sculpin it will be one of the coolest things I've caught for a while (staghorn sculpin)

I actually thought the betta was in a vase and was about to click off the video when you said thats incredible. Then I realized that fish is living in heaven

I just had my filter leak 2 weeks ago for the exact same reason. It warped my floor a bit so now I check it every night before I go to bed because I'm so afraid it's going to happen again.

The neons I keep will eat things off the substrate. Was surprised to see them do it, for sure.

I practically live on Excedrin and nurtec odt. Hope your head feels better.

I've got 5 or 6 small sculpins in my 55 gallon planted aquarium

yo chirs your bed bug works like a good cameraman edit : repashy the whole FTR staring at the table
