I stole it and I'm not sorry

I have a co-worker (same lab but he works day shift) who bought this betta for his desk about 5 months ago. He kept it in the cup he bought it in. Barely fed it and never changed the water. I got sick of watching it waste away six weeks ago so I stole it and replaced it with a fake plastic betta that honestly doesnt even look nearly the same. Its been six weeks and the co-worker still hasn't noticed. The cup is burried under a stack of papers on his desk...

Stealing is wrong. Super bad... but I'm not sorry and neither is this guy. His fins have grown back and he's put on a little weight. ...kind of a weird color but what ever. I'm just glad he's doing well now.

I think he has beautiful colours. How could someone practically ignore such a beautiful fish?!

He looks quite happy in your tank.. Have you named him yet? He deserves an awesome name.

But yes, stealing is wrong. Very wrong. Don't steal things, kids!

Omg. You crack me up every time. This is hilarious. I wonder if he will even notice.

Haven't named him yet. Ive been incredibly busy with my daughter, other rescues and fish projects lately.

I was looking forward to hearing about his reaction and his demanding to know who took his fish. I'm dissapointed lol

Fair enough.

I'm sure Emma could think of an awesome name for him.

Does Emma know how you acquired him?

Nice color not that “hot” Betta though.

She does not. Lol I'd rather have her wait until she's 40 to find out that I'm a bad mom. It's bad enough I gave up on finding the original owner/rehoming the hamster we found in the garage. "Just keep him. I'm tired of dealing with this" was not my finest mom moment in the last few months lol.

Living things should not be "deskorations," including plants. Even plants need love.
Thanks for saving him.

Consider the name "Stapler."

I’m not a betta guy so I could be wrong. He looks like what used to be know as a Mustard gas Betta.
Good looking betta either way.
