Okay now it's time to unboxing this betta
Hello betta lovers and what's up everybody and welcome to my video. Today is a special day for me because today we would like to
Unboxing and talking about wild bettas
especially betta imbellis and the little thing that we know about betta imbellis is this fish have a
very strong physic and brave character and usually this fish farm in Thailand
Indonesia and Malaysia and now it's time to unboxing. But before we start to unboxing we must prepare
filter water and
By the way the most important thing when we analyze the parameter of water for betta is
temperature, ammonia, and, pH
and If you curious about this topic, check this out
Good water temperature for betta fish is around 23 degree to 27 degree Celsius
and Idealy ammonia content in water is 0 ppm, and the last thing that is quite important is the pH of water
Ammonia and pH are the reason why we must routine to change water
Ammonia can come from fish droppings and leftovers
If the ammonia level is too high
then your fish will be poisoned. Your fish won't be comfortable in a tank, and don't forget
when the ammonia content in the betta fish tank is high, then the growth of betta fish will be very slow
therefore we must routine replace the water or do a water siphon
and you need to know that the most exciting thing about the betta fish hobby is when you replace water or change water
And second we need to prepare catappa leaves
Needless to say catappa leaves are very good for betta fish tank
Catappa leaves can change the condition and color of the water to be like in the betta fish habitat
Beside that extract of catappa leaves have several benefit namely
effectiveness against some
bacteria
Specifically Plasmodium and some parasite as well
But this applies
temporally
Okay now it's time to unboxing this betta
Now we start to unboxing betta imbellis
Now we open the plastic slowly but sure
After the betta fish entered the tank now close the tank based on my experience if the water in the tank is too high
Then betta fish can jump out. So closing the tank can make sure that the betta fish cannot jump out
By the way if the tank size is like this that is 15 length, 15 width
20 hight then this tank has a water capacity of 2.5 liter
and the consequence are at least once every three day. You have to replace the water
But if your tank size is bigger you change water once a week or you can also install a small filter
if you don't want to change water
and now it's time to check the completeness of the limbs
You can check completeness of the limbs of the betta fish like fins body and etc
Start playing with your betta. You can see the mentality of betta fish
and mentality test, you can test the courage of betta fish by confronting it with a mirror or with other fish with
flowerhorns fish
If your fish is brave, then he will expand the fins and stare at his opponent
Usually a good betta fish character will open the gill cover
and move calmly
By the way
Betta smaragdina, betta mahachaiensis, and betta imbellis has something in common
That is both bubble nester. So in the process of hatching eggs, male fish hatch their offspring in bubble nest.
Different from some other betta fish such as betta simplex and Betta channoides
They are Mouth breeder. Betta male incubates eggs in his mouth
and just information for betta fish food. I feed it, mosquito larvae or high protein pellets
and sometimes I give moina
By the way about price of wild betta usually around 10 and 20 dollars and some even above that price
and a few tips before we buying betta fish imbellis
We should be able to see the difference between hybrid betta fish and pure imbellis
Not all betta fish that are for sale have pure imbellis blood
therefore we must be careful before buying fish,
especially we must see the anatomy form and color of fish.
and if we talk about fighting abilities. Unlike modern betta fish like halfmoon, HMPK, and Crowntail.
Physically Wild betta imbellis has good posture to fight
The small tail, small body and long body makes it easier for betta imbellis to fight with other betta fish
And
