Well it happened. I was at Petco last night looking for goldfish food (i swear that's all), when I saw him. the most beautiful betta. Well I left the store, no food & no fish. Then it happened... I couldn't stop thinking about the fish. I was at my boyfriend's house & couldn't stop talking about the fish. I woke up this morning & finally decided to get the fish. I just returned from petco now, with my little purple & white beauty. I decided to get another one while I was there. My two new boys will make there home in a mini bow 5, divided of course. Now they need names. My almost all purple one is Anubis, but I haven't named the one i was obsessed with. I'll post pics wants the camera is up & running.
Now I just have to deal with my mom. I'm probably the only 23 year old who still fears her mom when she brings home a new pet. Maybe she won't notice...

Darn Betta Bug! I know how you feel. Today was actually one day I didn't buy a new Betta (prolly cause 2 died in less than a week)

Fish are awful addictive.

"I was at Petco last night looking for goldfish food (I swear that's all), when I saw him."

Isn't that how it always is? LOL! I would love to see pics though, haven't seen many purple and whites! Congrats on the two. Any name ideas for the one at all?

"Maybe she won't notice... "
The eternal hope... How did she take it?

Congrats! They sound very pretty.You'll have to get those pics posted soon!

Ok, mom's not cool with another tank. My 30 gallon is set up in my room & she claims the room is already at its limit for power, (come to think of it, my lights do flash when I turn on the tv). So I was thinking about getting a really big kritter keeper (about 5 gallons) and using thos discard a filter since they only need an air pump to run. (The mini bow has the light & filter). Has any one tried the discard-a-filter?
Still working on those pics.

heh.. Im 20 and terrified that my mom will figure out how many bettas I have! o.o

My mom thinks I should just seal off my room and fill it with water.
She took it back when I asked if we could really do that.

congratulations!! they sound lovely!!!
