Hey Alissa. I wouldn't recommend tape as a flow reducer, as it can contain chemicals you do not want in the water. I suggest you cut a plastic water bottle in half (without the label/glue) to size of the filter. You can do a KZread search on how to make one- I believe searching "DIY betta filter flow reducer" should recommend great videos. This method is much better, cheap, and lasts long! Where as tape will eventually lose its stick/grip, will not last as long, and contains chemicals.

No hate but to anyone who is wanting a betta its best to fully cycle the tank before getting the fish. This can take from 4 weeks or longer and gives good bacteria time to grow in the filter/gravel etc which will create a much healthier environment for your fish. There is not much good bacteria in water from an established tank but as you already bought the fish its better than nothing! I would have suggested to get some bio balls or some kind of media and put it in Klauss tank for a month or so and then put it into the new tank as that would mean that the new tank is already cycled and ready to go as the bacteria is in the filter ☺️ gorgeous fish though!

If you have an established aquarium, you can have a cycled tank within a day. I setup a 5 gallon for my betta and put her in the next day because I got a handful of filter floss media that hadn't been cleaned in about 2 months. I tested the water the next day and the parameters were on point- and have been to this day. It really all depends on how much media you can provide for the size tank to speed up the process, and how many fish you are adding to the aquarium. Too many fish (even with cycled media) and not enough cycled media for the amount of fish, can result in death of the fish, etc. as the bacteria are having difficulty removing the ammonia, nitrite, and nitrite in a sufficient matter of time.

My thermometer has been in the tank (same thermometer and tank) and it started at eighty and has only gone down a centimeter in 48 hours. Another thing I got the same gravel and I just cut the top pit water and use the net you got to get the water out and keep the rocks then I pour it in is that bad?

I have the 2.5 gallon Top Fin aquarium right now for my betta. I've had him for 2 years! I love my 2.5 gallon tank, but I really want to upgrade to this one! Great video xo

so just wanted to say that this video has been quite helpful with my betta I won at a carnival. I have the same tank and same setup sans the decorations being diffrent. do you put the tape right on the flowing area of the filter?

I have that exact tank. I put a suction cup soap holder under the filter so it goes slower when it starts to over flow. You can put some stones and beads in the soap holder so it looks pretty. I bought my soap holder off of amazon.

I totally called it for Elijah’s name lol. I love the Originals

I love the flute music. It was very cheerful. Your tank looks great and your betta is beautiful.

I have the same fish tank! I ended up using a different filter that was quieter, but overall I really like mine. I’ve been using it for two years and no problems!

There are so many KZreadrs that known better and still buy .5- 1.5 gal tanks for betta "demonstration" purposes and it kills me. Bear minimum is 2.5 gals, 5 gal is perfect and anything bigger your betta is swimming in paradise. As a betta curious person I truly thank you for having appropriate sized tanks!!!

I have the same tank and filter, and I feel like my fish really gets pushed around by the filter. I'm new to keeping fish. It seems like he gets pushed away by the water flow, but sucked towards the part that pulls in the water. Help! I might try the tape trick, will that also lessen the suction part as well?

Thanks! I couldn’t figure out how to start the filter, flowing process! However, there is a close and open dial on the top of the filter to slow down or speed up the flow of water.

@Alyssa Nicole. 1. You are a Shane Fan, Praise that! 2. Paul Cuffaro 3. I love this channel!

the beneficial bacteria lives on the gravel, filter, and surfaces of the tank, not the water itself. but there is an api product that cycles the tank within days and helps your fish as your tank cycles, api quick start. its better than doing a 4 week long natural tank cycling. test your tank with that api kit you have every day if ur going to have a fish in there, he may suffer with the ammonia and nitrite spikes

It helps with the cycle, not instant cycle. I know this for a fact after setting up multiple aquariums. 4 this year alone. There are methods for an instant cycle, but you need a well established aquarium to pull media from.

I have the exact same tank and gravel! To slow the flow on the filter, which was too strong for my betta fish as well, I cut a plastic bottle and wrapped it underneath and over the filter where the water flows out... that did the trick really well without completely cutting off the flow.

I know this video is old , but what is that plastic blue thing in the filter for?

i don’t believe that you really did put in cycled media, for the pure fact that you said in the video that the water holds the cycle and not the media. to add cycled media to that filter you would’ve had to remove some type of extra pad, bio balls etc you had in your other filter which i doubt you had considering you don’t even really know what a cycled is. i mean, cmon, you told one commenter to replace their filter pad which you should never do... that is throwing away the whole cycle. you just rinse the filter pad in removed tank water every once in a while. you even said you didn’t know if the thermometer went inside or outside the tank... if you do stuff like this, especially making videos which will misinform so many people, own up to your mistakes instead of lying about them. all of us who are really into the fish keep hobby can see the mistakes and lies right out your ass. you even said “inexperienced betta owners” typically buy those tanks... and that’s what we all see you as. you cannot call yourself a seasoned betta owner, please stop misinforming people. there’s already enough people who abuse bettas and keep them in horrible conditions.

Actually you’re completely wrong. The good bacteria does not live in the water, it lives in the filter and on hard hard services not in the actual water so putting old tank water in a new tank does absolutely nothing, you’re putting a fish in an uncycled tank. You should have just taken some filter media from the old tank to the new. Do some better research.

To answer your first question, yes! Every time you change the water in your tank, if you're using tap water make sure to always condition it! The filter will help the conditioner do its job and vice verse. You should be fine with your products! Hope I could help! :D

What pump to change the water did she use?

How did you get the glue from the boxes off the glass?

I have the same tank but the water current from the filter is too powerful for my betta to swim. Should I lower it from the twist thing?

Rebecca LaRiviere It’s a siphon.

Hey,I just wanted to know if you or someone can explain to me about a moss ball

Where did you put your beta while your tank cycled?

God Bless you!! I had no idea how to get the filter to work until I watched your video. Thank you!!!!!

Okay, one more....how do I introduce my Betta to the new tank? I don't have a little plastic dish thing anymore. I know I have to do it slowly and let her adjust just not sure how

What kind of heater are you using?
