A Betta necklace!

OK i'm not suggesting this as an option..... just was thinking that as these little ones are buddies and not your normal fish. They, as you know, really are our mates and it's so hard to leave them at home. They adore you in the way a dog would........amazing.

I often think i'd love to have a small bowl (with lid for Honey's jump!!)to hang around my neck as a necklace so that i could take which ever one showed interest on that day out with me. I'm sure they would love it as they love to explore etc and i would love to look down and see those eyes look up as i go about the day.
The trust with these fish is incredible. I have not put the room light on as Flame is next to monitor and sleeping. He woke from his daze came to say hi and has gone to bed. Such trust!!

A betta NECKLACE IS A VERY BAD IDEA AND SHOULD NEVER HAPPEN
just incase any moron should google here and think ahhh a plan!


but those who know me realise i'm animal mad and if my horse could live in the house she would!!! i have crashed with her in her stable before. ( should i admit that?!?!)

I understand completely! There are days I want to call into work and say,"sorry I'm not coming in. The dog, cat and I are going to sleep in."
My fish come over and watch me and I find myself nose to nose with them watching them too.

Re: A Betta necklace!

I know what you mean, My betta is in a 10G castle(as in a mans home is his castle ) with two otos and two corys. the corys are going in the 55G WHENEVER I can catch them. Slippery little suckers they are.

Yeah, I already saw it. Left me shaking my head... Why do people think Bettas and other poor little animals like hamsters live just to be toys for spoiled little kids! :

If I ruled the world I'd not only ban such stupidity but execute the people who invented them!

Re: A Betta necklace!

we know how you feel. we look at our little bettas and wish we could just take them wherever we go but stupid things like shoes and all are just inhumane and not really loving to that little pet who loves you.. i guess for now, we'll just have to tote around a big tank..

Phlox execute away!!

I think giving a child a hamter is so stupid but then it is the brainless parents that are at fault....ok i could really rant but i won't.

Val the wine sounds like a good plan!! i think i might go and buy a bottle!!

Re: A Betta necklace!

Spot does this' erm i appear to have dropped my pellet, please fetch it for me wench'.........he is very posh and elegant, if he were human he'd wear a bowler hat carry a copy of the financial times, a cane and would have butler called Jeeves. Honey and Flame are the opposite, they say 'sod the pellet, that finger looks juicey' in fact maybe my idea of a betta necklace might not work with those too, they'd probably go for the neck!! ( my meaty double chin!)
