I made my Shampoo Run

Hi. I made my shampoo run. She decided that she didn't want a betta but a fancy guppy for the community tank which she named " Yellow Snow"
I on the other hand, did pick up a beautiful crown tail. He has a black face with a royal blue body, and his fins are streaks of purple, baby blue, dark blue, red, burgendy and some white. He is stunning! Also got a couple of white mollies for the community tank. My husband came home last night and he's like " Are there fish in that tank that wern't there this morning?" and I was like " What are you talking about" and his mom who's here visiting said ' Steven I think your seeing things'. And he said, I see two white mollies that wern't there this morning. And I said " no we don't have any white mollies". and then i said ' Next thing your going to be telling me that there is a yellow fancy guppy in there too, and a new betta in the office." And he said "HOW MANY MORE FISH CAME INTO THIS HOUSE TODAY". And I said, I didn't say any fish came into this house this morning. And it kept going on and on and on. But ya, my husbands suposed to be fixing my digital camera this morning so I can get ya's some picks of Drew, W, and Joey.

I can't stop laughing. That is too hilarious. Good job playing with your husband making him think he's crazy. That's too funny. I don't understand why our husbands have such a hissy fit when we buy more fish. It's not like were bringing home a house full of dogs or something. Fish are quiet, nice to watch, and you don't have to take them for a walk on a leash.

Anyway, congrats on the fishies and best of luck with your new Betta. What's his name again? Can't wait to see pics. Natalie

Your story reminds me so much of myself. I always tell my Husband that I have to go and run some errands and go to the bank. This really entails of going to the bank and taking out money to go and buy fish. He has been very tollerant but he may think I am a little crazy Seriously though, I agree with nmwierman1077. I don't know why husbands freak out over fish. They are clean and don't mess up the house like our cats do. He made me promise no more tanks, but my birthday is in a month and a tank sounds like the perfect present if ya know what I mean Maybe I'll convince him. Anyways, good luck with your new little guys. It's always exciting to get more fishies

What's his name again? \
His name is drew cause he looks like he has a crew cut and Drew rhymes with Crew. I liked it. It suits his personality.
Ya you don't have to walk them and you always know where the fish are going to poop.
Yesterday was my birthday and thats why I felt like I could bring fish home. I just find it hilarious that his mother is my partner in crime. I think she might be getting a betta of her own when she gets home she loves our fish so much. (And My ours I mean MINE! lol) My husband was suposed to get me a 50 gal for my b-day but we decided to wait til after tax season when my work slows down and I can give the setup process more attention. I'm a bookkeeper so i'm hopeing things slow down around may...................hopefully .

Congratulations on the new "shampoo" purchases. I love that your mother-in-law is your ally too. It is nice when you can have a close relationship like that. A betta for her would be a nice companion for her if she loves your fish.

I love the name you chose and he sounds lovely. We eagerly await pictures!! (note I did not say patiently...we do love pictures __)

Hi!

Wow! Nice sounding Betta. How could your daughter choose a Guppy over a Betta, egh? Your husband sounds funny. What's wrong more fish?

My mom likes fish so much shes started buying them without me around! My dad says its a waste of money. This coming from the guy who spends like 30$ extra a month for the "Sports Extreme Package" on dish.
