Alright, my parents are going to kill me, especially my mom but hey, I couldn't resist.

Last night I went out to get some salt as a "just in case" thing when I get a goldie this weekend now that my tank is finally cycled biggrin.gif . I was looking at the bettas as is now my custom when I go to the lfs and I saw this betta that really reminded me of Killer, the betta I had when I was younger. Since I had a ten gallon tank with nothing in it I thought, hmmm....maybe. I went about my shopping, searching all over the store for the pickling salt for the fish to compare the prices of that and Doc Wellfishes salt. The pickling salt was only $1.30 for three pounds! I couldn't believe it, the Doc Wellfishes was 3 dollars for 1 pound.

After I discovered that deal I felt drawn back to the bettas and decided, heck....I want a betta and theres one right there that I really like and I have a few extra dollars sooooo newfish.gif . I'll post pics real soon, I promise biggrin.gif

i've noticed more crowntails in the pet stores recently now... are the veiltails less "popular" now?

Veiltails have bigger spawns which is why they are so easy to find in petshops. They'll always be popular with breeders who want lots of fish quickly.

Great picture... why is he trying to read something called BrainDropping...???

The book is called Brain Droppings by George Carlin. I guess Killer must be into the cynical humor rofl3.gif
