As a few people know, I had a Pictus Cat that was cleaning out my tank. I called the pet store and they said they would take him, and give me credit... picked up some new tiger barbs to replace the missing ones, Fell in love with a RED tiger barb, just to find out they were dyed...never mind..... Well upon leaving that store, I decided to go to that pet store that no one likes because all the fish are nasty and dead. But if your lucky you can find a unique fish. I found my peacock eel there and thats been almost a year ago, and hes still kicking. well Im picking through the tanks and the guy walks in the door with a shipment of fish... hmmmmm..... I look at the fish as there taking them out of the box and I spot the most beautiful female Betta... she is light lavender!!! I pick her up off the counter before they have a chance to put her in that nasty little cup with blue water... I dont even have tank space for her... she is currently in a BIG pitcher of water so before everyone freaks out and tells me about how bad it is, I know... Im going back to Wally WOrld to get her a tank. My water pitcher is much better then the 1/2 cup of water she was in before, or that nasty blue water at the store. SHe is so cute, and active! swimming all over the pitcher and I think she posed for me when taking her picture. She is fluffing up her fins and nibbling on the two bits of food I dropped in. Seems healthy! See next post for pic... I love her and now I need to think of a name for her. All my Bettas have been named after Musicians, Elvis, George, and Elton... need something for her...
