BOWL N WTF IS AMMONIA, NITRITE, NITRATE, AND THOSE OTHER SHIT I DONT EVEN FKIN DO THOSE SHT AND MY FISH IS STILL ALIVE FOR 1 YEAR HOES AND NO WATER CHANGES WEN I C TAT IT JUST MAKES ME THINK TAT U GUYS R STUPID OF DOING THOSE AND WASTING MONEY ON IT THE TRY AMMONIA IKIT IS $11!!!!
@TheSpiritSai Idiot Goldfish just happens to be very well surviving fish. Probably everything is wrong with your aquarium, but as very tough fish goldfish does not die easily. They can live over 10 years so the fact that you successfully tortured it for 1 year and it did not die proves nothing.
Just think it this way. You could live tens of years in 1x1 meter dark room as long as you got enough food and drink. But would you be happy? No.
oh and also fighting fish prefer very small tanks, from experience, putting them in a tank bigger than about a litre is very stressful for them, as they naturally live in cows footprints and things.
@LaterzMcGhee Actually, that's a myth. I keep my bettas in no less than 5 gallon tanks, and they all do wonderful and all seem a lot happier and livelier.
@LaterzMcGhee they actually dont "live" in "cows footprints and things" get ur facts straight b4 u post stupid shit like this... and "Betta's" that ur referring to, are like most fish, and need the proper size tanks, filtration, food, lighting, and temperature (for tropical fish)
@Rapter1985 oh, stupid shit? thanks. i guess you're better at googling than i am.
even if they dont live in cow prints it doesn't mean they dont like small/claustrophobic habitats or enjoy open spaces. but actually my fish might just have agoraphobia
@LaterzMcGhee Thats rubbish, in here Finland minimum recommendation aquarium size is 40 litres, and many people keep them in bigger ones too. Like said total myth with no facts behind it. And no they do not live in that small places in nature, but more like in small streams that are still way bigger than average aquarium tank.
Actually finnish animal law prevents keeping any fish in tank less than 40 litres... One of the few good things about Finland.
@awhatzable show some Respect. theres no need to be cunt, and for all you know im fucking albert einstein.

@0204kat have you de-chlorinated you water yet? Have you cycled your tank for a week before you got the fish? Did you do your research? Do you know how to do water changes? Please buy a tank and do lots of research before buying
i have a bowl for my fish but it's a 3 gallon bowl it's really big for a bowl and i change all of the water twice a week for my betta.He does make a bubble nest so that's good right.
I hate it when people say 'oh, it will just grow into it's bowl' uhm, no it wont... it will get deformed. Do you like wearing shoes 3 sizes too small? Also, most fish like large numbers so don't get 1 of each species you like. and PLEASE go online for info, store clerks are nitwits who just want to make money (mostly). Just because they're small doesn't mean they don't have feelings. They should be treated like what people find normal for a dog or cat. love 'em, even though you can't pet them.
i dont wish to disagree, but we used to keep beta's in glass vases with a live plant...the plant fed off the ammonia from the fish and the fish fed off the roots of the plant. had three betas that lived for 2-3 years and my grandmother has one that was 4 yrs old.
For a long time, up until very recently, it seems we've been in the dark ages of fish keeping. I think we're slowly coming out of those dark ages, though, at least I hope so. Hobbyists are really contributing a lot of information to the fish world in general. Fish aren't just the set-it-and-forget-it decorations that most people seem to think they are. Thank you for the video. I can't understand how people see fish as just... Pretty rocks in a tank, or something.
I keep my fish in a very large bowl, but they're babies and small enough that keeping the water clean is easier than if they were matured. When they get bigger I'll put them in a tank, but I think bowls are alright in certain situations (like beta fish) and are not the root of all fish problems. That would be uneducated fish owners.
@JaysaLittle Actually betta's require warm water which means you need a heater and will show there best bahaviour and colours when they are in a clean tank that is large enough for them to be entertained. Just because they are beautiful doesnt mean they dont have feelings, they are intelligent fish and if you give them the chance youd be surprised how they act in the right conditions.
cmon dude, if you clean the bowl every week or so, it shouldn't be a problem. just because your fish died in a bowl doesn't mean every fish will die because of it.
Lol are you stupid dude? GOLDFISH has a intention span of 2 minutes. After that they dont even know what just happend. they restart every 2 mins. thats why they are in a small tank.. Lmfao dude.
@SophieIsLeukHe Because to customers: It's cheap, looks easy to set up, maintain, and attractive to the eye, and to sellers: They sell a lot of them, and most pet stores could care less about an animal's well being. They should be banned though. :/
@SophieIsLeukHe the pet store is nothing more then someone that wants to have nothing more then money. If you ask them something about the animal they know almost nothing not until you tell them. And the animals they sell get no older then just a few years. And bowls for fish is also bad for the fish because the fish get physical disordered because of the bowl making things a lot bigger then they are.
What absolute bullshit. You can prevent most of these problems by simply keeping the bowl clean. And FYI, there is no difference in clenliness between a bowl and a tank, just size. So in a tank, the water may be just as dirty but you don't see it as there is a larger surface area. To truly keep a bowl/tank clean 24/7, you'd need a tank cleaner, which is expensive and drains one's electricity bill. Lots of people can't afford that. You, my dear, are really quite stupid.
@PastaBakeMilkShake Couldnt agree with you more, I do a 20% water change every week put dechlorinater in there (the correct level needed for it) and I bought the top of the range heater and a hyprid bubble filter HOW DOES THE SHAPE OF A TANK EFFECT IT iv even got 2 moss balls in ther to keep nitrate levels down. My first fish died last week after being alive for 6 months and even then he was a guppy
people buy bowls because they dont want to spend so mush they can get a bowl and gravel under 10 dollars or buy an heater filter decor gravel plants 10 gallon tank under 60 dollars i obviously choose the ten gallon option 60 dollars i spend but was worth it
So true movie.. But confirm your facts... The goldfish on 0:57 have Flavobacterium columnare. I know this 'cause my carpers had.. Dont just random copy/past pics cause they bring the wrong info... its a different disease..
you can keep them in bowls but the bowl needs to be very big with places to hide and with something new every day not a place with nothing in it that makes it feel trapped, the fish needs to feel welcome.
@TheMoviemakerjr I kept my betta in a two gallon bowl with silk plants and several small caves. It was horrible...I was cleaning that damn thing three times a week and constantly testing to keep the cycle in check. I switched her to a 2.5 gallon with a five gallon filter (There are snails and they make a mess, and can't see killing them off just cause they weren't her intended tankmates) She's also got a heater. I have never seen her colors so bright. Her white is platinum and her red is RED!!
its horrible that people win fish at fairs and do this to them . they dident deserve this .i keep my turquiose severum's in a 90 gallon even tho they only get 5 inches because i think of it this way. would you like to be kept in a jail cell with horrible conditions ? then why would you put one of god's creatures threw it then ? my chichlids have been living for over 4 years now .
@greenfiend42000 I put it this way, "would you wanna be locked in your bathroom with your own chilli farts for a week? And the only time you get fresh air is when you are let out for five minutes when your "keeper" has time to take care of you? Or would you rather have a house with central heating, and the ability to open a window now and then to air your farts out?"
@allygator824 Then they don't need to be getting a fish. You shouldn't get an animal if you can't care for it properly. Don't get a dog if you cant walk it, don't get a cat if you can't clean a litter box, don't get a snake if you can't handle feeding it dead mammals, and you don't get a fish that could potential live for 25 years, and will easily be four or five inches, and sometime much much bigger. They are pond fish, meaning one day you will need a at least a 60 gallon tank.
@FiestyCat86 i agree with u if they cant take care of them they shouldnt have them . Im just sayin its their fault if they dont take care of them properly cuz they dont have space for a tank. if they dont have the space they shouldnt have them
This is so true. It took me an hour to clean a fish bowl . And when i got my 10g tank it takes me 10 m to vaccum gravel and put back the water.in big tanks your supposed to do 25% water changes weekly but in bowls several almost full water changes.
@Animal00Kaiser And you BELIEVED HIM? R you kidding me? Do you even know what a goldfish is? Its a modified carp, a RIVER fish, that lives in large rivers, lakes and ponds. No fish wants to live in cramped spaces especially a fish that's going to get to seven or eight inches by end of it twenty year life span. Lord a mercy, do you believe the toothfairy is real too? If I told you pit bulls enjoy fighting to the death, would you believe that? Hon please do some research.
@Animal00Kaiser No I'm sorry. That was really kinda harsh. I wasn't purposely attacking you, I was just kinda tweaked at the guy who told you that. There have been cases of larger goldfish living for fifteen years plus in small aquariums, but they were typically alone there whole lives and are never as active as their pond counterparts. There are alot of myths were goldfish are concerned, that you can debunk by looking up the info online. Again, I'm sorry I was so rude.
@FiestyCat86 I believed him because last time my goldfishes kinda liked the small pail I put them in (there were only two goldfish!) Too bad I had to leave them to the world! That was the only goldfish I knew that understood ENGLISH!
I cannot fucking believe that the Chinese dude just put a HUGE goldfish into a tiny keychain! Though cool, I would prefer a plastic goldfish instead of a live one... Cuz it might die it you walk to mush and the road for the fish is too bumpy
today i got my betta an octagon tank he loves it all he dose is swim back and forth all day ive had him for a month but i use to clean his bowl every 2 days
Diseases are common not only in bowls but tanks I love fish and I do keep some fish in a bowl my beta lived in a Gold fish bowl but Never she died sadly from a Disease but not something that is Rather common at all, Gill Rot I believe it was I was unaware of it entirely until when she died she had Moss like white substance she lived a Long life though =)
@RaffleReefer10 yes its cruel but if the fish are small enough it is a space big enough for them to grow and play and most of the diseases in your videos can happen to every fish no matter them being in circle bowls or tanks
Yeah kept my fish in a bowl and it jumped out... couldn't find it.. so I accused my best friend of breaking into my house and stealing my fish cuz she wanted it...
7 for my bowl with water cleaner filter rocks and a plant + Food and Bubbler that lights up. Neat thing I love it. I agree bowls are harder to keep I tried it failed to much work. So I bought more rocks and went to Walmart! and got a 10 gallon tank for 10 bucks and just moved everything there and guess what it looks even better with the light up bubbler now I added more bubbles with tubes in the tank to make it more bubbly and Cotten Candy loves it, she is a rescue Tattoo Molly with new babys
soo true. my dad laughed at me because i was worried about my platy when my old molly bullied her he goes "they're just fish" i said "well how you you feel if somebody kept biting at you and kept you from eating. fish have feelings" my sis wants a bowl for her betta and i'm talking her into getting the tank i have that'd be perfect for a betta
I knew it I wanted a tank for my zebra danio and mom says they cost to much and are hard to take care of so no now I have to watch the dirty bowl my mom is supposed to clean it but she never ever does mabey just ones ever 3 months or somehting she doesn't know about the fish care I told her the fish care and she does not belive me. Great song too
its $15 and it has a filter and a light its not a bowl, its a one gallon tank i have a goldfish in and unable to get a bigger tank so im going to stick with a small one for now
i got a big nice filtered tank and my fish still died and i did every thing right so now i just get a 5 dollar bowl and buy 27 cent fish so when they die i get new ones :)
@spaid95 Fish are stressed when they go into a new tank - so it is natural to lose a few. You may have not introduced them to the tank correctly, so you may need to read up on that.
Perhaps, if you are just thinking about money and treating them like some little decoration, don't get fish at all. Stick with a pet rock. When my fish die, I try to learn from my mistakes.
@oxShadowCatxo im not trying to save money its just i want to buy a cheap one so if does live then ill get more and a bigger tank but if it dies ill do what yous said, try and learn why.
@spaid95 But putting it in a cheap and inadequate bowl is just giving it a poorer standard of living - and more chances of dying. You should continue with the better tank, and then constantly learn from any mistakes there. Also, read books or look on the internet about getting fish, its habitat, its feeding habits and the water quality it needs. I can see what you are doing, but with living creatures it is better to invest a bit more time and money - instead of working from the bottom.
This is actually very contrversial. You SHOULD keep a Betta or small goldfish in a bowl or at least a gallon small tank. And Goldfish build ammonia more then any other fish. A Betta though prefer to live a bowl or gallon tank i mean unless you add a tetra or something like that. So its not INHUMANE by any means. As long as you do regular water changes your fish will be fine. And P.S. its informative so im not hating or trolling just stating the facts and P.S.S. I hate the song -_-
@melliott3707 actually they dont have a three second memory, everyone underestimates fish. fish are VERY smart. considering you can teach them tricks and they remember. what they remember is the food, just like cats or dogs. and btw, u dont have to be a know-it-all!
Thank you so much for posting this! I have an adorable little Betta fish, and when I first bought him I was horrified to get home and learn (from online forums) that everything they'd told me at the pet store was false! They said a 1 gallon tank or bowl was fine, never mentioned conditioning or cycling the water, and failed to say anything about a heater and lighting :(. I'm lucky that I happened to check.
ye this is so wrng....pet shops here in india say dat bettas can b kept in small bowls or evn disposable glasses...dats sch cruelty....bettas r d most bright n playful fish i hav evr seen n ppl r jst assholes keepin thm as decorations n show offs....i had a betta in a small bowl for abt an year wen i had no knowledge abt thm...bt wen i knew n got a 5gal for it...its so happy n playful nw...it evn jumps out of water to get d food.....luved d video...ty.......
I HAVE A BETTA IN A BOWL!! OH :-(, after the first day of having the bowl i thought that this was a bad idea!!! im going to walmart and buying a 5 gallon tank with a filter
Hey i have a questing. If i make a video to show wear my fish and the tank will you tell me if it a safe and good tank there in i sooo dont want them to die
@MrEricrsm Yes, I'm the dumb one.. trying to save animals from people like you and making the world a better place. Oh yeah, I'm definitely super dumb. I wish I was as smart as you.
@MrEricrsm Oh wow, It's people like yourself who are so arrogant that you can't even care about another living thing. Fish have LIVES TOO, And deserve the best we have to offer. NOT bowls, Or sick, Degrading people like you. Seriously, How would you like it if I stuck your head underwater, And not let you take your last ''gulp'' of air until you drowned? Does that sound fucked up? Yes. Yes, It IS a fish, And it deserves to be treated like a living being. NOT someones sick way of humour. Grow up!
@MrEricrsm And really? Swearing? That doesn't make you look stupid . . . . Much. :') And by suffercating a fish, What would you be proving? That sick, Twisted human beings actually do this to innocent animals? Yes, What a point you will be proving. I'm actually disgusted to be of the same species as you! A fish is an animal, And animal with rights. Stephster575 is 100% in her right to make a video to express her, And other people's opinion. And it's people like you we want to protect fish from.
@MrEricrsm LOL!!! Are you kidding me? :') Writing such childish and low comments on my channel? :') It's too bad I approve them before they show up. :') Grow up kid, And maybe we'll help drown you? Made me chuckle. :') Thanks for that! :') Your too cowardly to back up your words? And not even comment back? I mean, You have nothing on your channel, So why the hell do people like you comment? Don't you actually have a life to live? Clearly not. :') Pathetic.
I know someone that kept a goldfish in a bowl for 29 years.

then why do they sell bowls?
SophieIsLeukHe 3 months ago
@SophieIsLeukHe Because to customers: It's cheap, looks easy to set up, maintain, and attractive to the eye, and to sellers: They sell a lot of them, and most pet stores could care less about an animal's well being. They should be banned though. :/
stephster575 3 months ago
@SophieIsLeukHe the pet store is nothing more then someone that wants to have nothing more then money. If you ask them something about the animal they know almost nothing not until you tell them. And the animals they sell get no older then just a few years. And bowls for fish is also bad for the fish because the fish get physical disordered because of the bowl making things a lot bigger then they are.

What absolute bullshit. You can prevent most of these problems by simply keeping the bowl clean. And FYI, there is no difference in clenliness between a bowl and a tank, just size. So in a tank, the water may be just as dirty but you don't see it as there is a larger surface area. To truly keep a bowl/tank clean 24/7, you'd need a tank cleaner, which is expensive and drains one's electricity bill. Lots of people can't afford that. You, my dear, are really quite stupid.

@PastaBakeMilkShake Couldnt agree with you more, I do a 20% water change every week put dechlorinater in there (the correct level needed for it) and I bought the top of the range heater and a hyprid bubble filter HOW DOES THE SHAPE OF A TANK EFFECT IT iv even got 2 moss balls in ther to keep nitrate levels down. My first fish died last week after being alive for 6 months and even then he was a guppy

you can keep them in bowls but the bowl needs to be very big with places to hide and with something new every day not a place with nothing in it that makes it feel trapped, the fish needs to feel welcome.

@TheMoviemakerjr I kept my betta in a two gallon bowl with silk plants and several small caves. It was horrible...I was cleaning that damn thing three times a week and constantly testing to keep the cycle in check. I switched her to a 2.5 gallon with a five gallon filter (There are snails and they make a mess, and can't see killing them off just cause they weren't her intended tankmates) She's also got a heater. I have never seen her colors so bright. Her white is platinum and her red is RED!!

Or would you rather have a house with central heating, and the ability to open a window now and then to air your farts out?"

allygator824 4 months ago
@allygator824 Then they don't need to be getting a fish. You shouldn't get an animal if you can't care for it properly. Don't get a dog if you cant walk it, don't get a cat if you can't clean a litter box, don't get a snake if you can't handle feeding it dead mammals, and you don't get a fish that could potential live for 25 years, and will easily be four or five inches, and sometime much much bigger. They are pond fish, meaning one day you will need a at least a 60 gallon tank.
FiestyCat86 3 months ago
@FiestyCat86 i agree with u if they cant take care of them they shouldnt have them . Im just sayin its their fault if they dont take care of them properly cuz they dont have space for a tank. if they dont have the space they shouldnt have them

This is so true. It took me an hour to clean a fish bowl . And when i got my 10g tank it takes me 10 m to vaccum gravel and put back the water.in big tanks your supposed to do 25% water changes weekly but in bowls several almost full water changes.
I got my 10 gallon tank from petco for 10$.

@Animal00Kaiser And you BELIEVED HIM? R you kidding me? Do you even know what a goldfish is? Its a modified carp, a RIVER fish, that lives in large rivers, lakes and ponds. No fish wants to live in cramped spaces especially a fish that's going to get to seven or eight inches by end of it twenty year life span. Lord a mercy, do you believe the toothfairy is real too? If I told you pit bulls enjoy fighting to the death, would you believe that? Hon please do some research.

@FiestyCat86 Jeez... Sorry dude..
Animal00Kaiser 3 months ago
@Animal00Kaiser No I'm sorry. That was really kinda harsh. I wasn't purposely attacking you, I was just kinda tweaked at the guy who told you that. There have been cases of larger goldfish living for fifteen years plus in small aquariums, but they were typically alone there whole lives and are never as active as their pond counterparts. There are alot of myths were goldfish are concerned, that you can debunk by looking up the info online. Again, I'm sorry I was so rude.
FiestyCat86 3 months ago
@FiestyCat86 I believed him because last time my goldfishes kinda liked the small pail I put them in (there were only two goldfish!) Too bad I had to leave them to the world! That was the only goldfish I knew that understood ENGLISH!

7 for my bowl with water cleaner filter rocks and a plant + Food and Bubbler that lights up. Neat thing I love it. I agree bowls are harder to keep I tried it failed to much work. So I bought more rocks and went to Walmart! and got a 10 gallon tank for 10 bucks and just moved everything there and guess what it looks even better with the light up bubbler now I added more bubbles with tubes in the tank to make it more bubbly and Cotten Candy loves it, she is a rescue Tattoo Molly with new babys

spaid95 5 months ago
@spaid95 Fish are stressed when they go into a new tank - so it is natural to lose a few. You may have not introduced them to the tank correctly, so you may need to read up on that.
Perhaps, if you are just thinking about money and treating them like some little decoration, don't get fish at all. Stick with a pet rock. When my fish die, I try to learn from my mistakes.
oxShadowCatxo 5 months ago
@oxShadowCatxo im not trying to save money its just i want to buy a cheap one so if does live then ill get more and a bigger tank but if it dies ill do what yous said, try and learn why.
spaid95 5 months ago
@spaid95 But putting it in a cheap and inadequate bowl is just giving it a poorer standard of living - and more chances of dying. You should continue with the better tank, and then constantly learn from any mistakes there. Also, read books or look on the internet about getting fish, its habitat, its feeding habits and the water quality it needs. I can see what you are doing, but with living creatures it is better to invest a bit more time and money - instead of working from the bottom.

This is actually very contrversial. You SHOULD keep a Betta or small goldfish in a bowl or at least a gallon small tank. And Goldfish build ammonia more then any other fish. A Betta though prefer to live a bowl or gallon tank i mean unless you add a tetra or something like that. So its not INHUMANE by any means. As long as you do regular water changes your fish will be fine. And P.S. its informative so im not hating or trolling just stating the facts and P.S.S. I hate the song -_-

They said a 1 gallon tank or bowl was fine, never mentioned conditioning or cycling the water, and failed to say anything about a heater and lighting :(. I'm lucky that I happened to check.
