Over the holiday season, I've been living with my dad and brought my two bettas with me. One of them has been kept in the kitchen during the stay. I figured my dad would tolerate/ignore him, but he has got to liking him quite a bit. He has even affectionately nicknamed him "Bubba" HAHAHA! My dad had to take care of him for a few days while I was gone and got attached to both of them, and has even said that he will miss them when they go. If he misses them too much, I'll just have to teach him how to set up a tank for himself

Not all dads are so keen on fish tanks! Trust me!

Good for Dad - he knows quality when he sees it! Another person who might decide to rescue an abused fish from deathco!

That's great, all of us betta folks thought that might happen, at least I did I hope you help him get his own betta, to interact with and enjoy

Bettas are such lovable characters, they get to people.

Yeah my dad is sucked in by Spot our kitchen betta after months of saying 'that fish' he now keeps an eye on the tank temp, calls him 'son' and plays with him running stuff around the tank for him to follow!!

My dad was talking about missing them last night again! His birthday is in August, maybe if he doesn't get a tank by then I'll get him one for his own little betta pal

Great idea!
