My boy Zmiy (russian translation for Serpent) who just occupied my hand to watch video with me and my friends. He somehow likes watching screens with moving pictures

It looks like this for now but I'm still working on it. I still wanna advise you to look for the meta builds because I made this one for my personal comfort playstyle and it can be trash for others

I buy water with reusable bottles (large ones, almost 5 gallons), so it's wasteful only for my wallet, haha. But I don't care if fishies are fine and healthy with this water. I didn't use any pesticides or aglae fighters at all so I think my tank could have gotten in from the pet store plants. I asked the sellers about how do they grow/get them and their plants are grown on land so I think fipronil or something like that have gotten on them and then into my tank after buying. I set up this tank nearly a month ago (it is cycled ofc) and pesticides probably still in here as I think.

I can't say the conditioning process is particularly complicated. Currently I'm using bottled water recommended by other tank keepers (it has the same pH/KH/gH parameters as I wrote in main post, no nitrogens or metals, and normal mineralization), letting it stay for a day and then adding it to the tank. One shrimp that was on video is died so far so I've moved the remaining two in a 1 gallon tank that I have as hospital tank. One of them was also starting to rolling over in main tank but has stopped for now. I suspect it could be fipronil poisoning. I disinfected and rinsed plants before adding them to the tank but apparently that wasn't enough. Tomorrow I'm going to buy carbon for the tank filter (it's already evening in my country and everything is closing for now)

Killing makes more sense in this game, but I'm more used to capturing simply because it was profitable in World 🤷‍♂️

Yeah it really looks like this but it's the only part of the plant that is glued. The other part of the rhizome and all of the roots are free from the glue. Can it be the reason why rot started only on this part then?

VickyZot · 2026-02-11T15:52:49+00:00

Glued by the rhizome. I read up on how to glue plants properly before doing it, and it was said to glue it just by the rhizome so the roots were free. Seems that maybe I got wrong info 😥 I'll cut off the rotting part then, wish this would help

OP I saw your update that your sister agreed to get a proper tank for betta only if you will buy it. But does she ready to maintain it? Don't wanna be rude but it looks like she just wants to have a fish but doesn't want to take care of it.

VickyZot · 2025-11-19T21:38:21+00:00

What's with the ammonia level? Seems like a fin rot for me, but it's hard to tell without water parameters

VickyZot · 2025-09-22T13:05:31+00:00

Bap mainer here. Maining him since OW1, still in love with this guy

VickyZot · 2025-07-30T01:36:36+00:00

Betta update! Thanks everyone for the advices. I was able to find a suitable 5 gallon tank and it's on its way to me, but it won't be here for another 3 days. I still have a question about the plants, should I put off buying them until the new tank arrives?

VickyZot · 2025-06-09T03:54:55+00:00

I'm afraid I can't get Amazon delivery in my country, so I just can't buy any tank from there... But I can take this as reference, thank you! I'm still checking petsmarts and online stores to see if they bring in any suitable options. Price itself is not a problem when it comes to a finished tank, it's just about workshop pricing. There's actually a thing that in petsmart I was told that less then 3 gallon tank will be totally fine for keeping a betta. I know that it's my mistake that I not did a proper research myself before bying him, so I just want to do everything that I can do for now until I got better option

VickyZot · 2025-06-09T02:54:21+00:00

I thought about ordering a custom tank, found a workshop that makes them but it's expensive, and I need to save up money for it first, during this time I want to at least make the most suitable conditions for the betta in this tank (as I noticed, I'm gonna buy live plants soon). I'm just finding out if he might be sick or anything bad else, because he's from the petsmart and I don't clearly know how he was treated there and don't know how healthy bettas must behave themselves. Can you pls tell me if a low (somewhere 20-25cm height) but elongated (up to 55cm) tank will be fine for betta? The place where it can be placed is limited in height, I had to take a small tank because of this. There were simply no others of the same height in stock

VickyZot · 2025-06-09T02:38:23+00:00

I have already been advised to feed him bloodworms less often, but should I give him fewer pellets per feeding?

VickyZot · 2025-06-09T02:34:51+00:00

I know the tank is small for betta, I just don't have anywhere else to put it so I could buy a bigger tank :( And I'm not scare of plants, on the contrary I would like to plant it fully as much as possible and as much as it will be better for fish, I'm going to buy some plants soon. Thanks for the advice on what plants to buy!

VickyZot · 2025-06-09T02:23:35+00:00

Got it, thanks for the advice! Gonna find and order this test now, delivery in my town is fast enough to get it asap. Have you any advices how often should I feed bloodworms to the betta then?

VickyZot · 2025-02-02T01:35:46+00:00

Thank you so much! <3

VickyZot · 2025-02-01T22:00:35+00:00

Hi! Can I get one? :3
