Stopped by Petco to have a look around, and to check out the 1$ a gallon sail. Normally I would never buy fish from them but I wandered threw to check out the Bettas...


and found this ..yeah yeah nothing great.

^_^ ty i got him for the price of a vail tail...he is now happily munching on black worms and baby shrimp.

once we got him home and in clean water he could hold him self up right, but he seems a bit weak agents the filter flow but i guess that is to be expected after living in a cup ..he seems pretty amazed at his new home..poking in to every crack and looking under all the leafs...the other half says the betta reminds him of an arowana..I dunno but he is pretty.

none of the pics really do him justice, I cant wait to see what he looks like in a few weeks.
 
beautifiul betta and great home.
 
That is an awesome setup for him! He must be happier than an antelope with night vision goggles!
 
If I get around to a petsmart today I might see if I can snag a 5g tank and some plants if the 1$ gallon sale is there.. I think I'm gonna have to do this now lol.

yeah its crazy a little clean water and he is upright and happy. ..he seems like he has never seen plants..he was trying to eat them for about an hour before shrimp caught his eye..he has been chasing them around the tank for a while.

he was struggling with the flow as well we had to turn it way down..he is till kinda weak but seems to be happy now.


the best part is they rang him up as a vailtail betta at about 3.99...vs the dt plakat he is. ..witch is about 15.99
 
Really? Nobody got my geico commercial joke? Lemme try again-he must be happier than a witch in a broom factory.
