| every betta owner should have some....
Fish protector, vita chem, and garlic guard!
Those 3, with daily water changes, saved omone's life...
He jumped the divider about 1 month ago, so pic 1 is after I freaked out and found him with Rafikki and pic 2 is him today... DSC05148.JPG DSC04607.JPG |

| Went out today to load up on the fountain of youth...Went to Petco..They SUCK! They had NONE of the above items mentioned.....I was so PO'd....All they did have was a bunch of nasty "Cupkids" Most of them had finrot......It was gross....I asked the fish person when they expected a new shipment of Bettas...She said not for a week...I said GOOD! because the ones you have out need immediate attention! Grrrrrrrrrr Then things got worse...They still had the little halfmoon blue butterfly boy....I left him behind AGAIN....
Petco is on my Shi-List right now.....I may go back tomorrow and get the little guy....He is a royal blue halfmoon butterfly tail (black lacing) Poor little fellow! He's maybe 1 inch at the most....They had a $13.99 price tag on him..Way too much for a "Cupbaby" that has been there for over a week..... | |

| I hate Deathco more than the other chains and only would give them business if NO other alternative could be found.   Cheaper to shop online anyway. 
Those are definite "must stock" items, and I keep a couple bottles of each. 
I've ordered from DFS and do like them, but they don't carry Fish Protector so I order from www.thatfishplace.com - they're usually a bit cheaper than DFS too. | |

| I think the only thing Petco is good for, is cheap tanks. I got my 29 gal with hood, filter, heater, water conditioner, net, and a little bit of food, for $129.99 cheapest i could find. | |

| OK Shawnie....
My shipment arrived....What next? lol.....How often do I use the fish protector and how much? The vitachem says 1 drop per gallon once a week....I'm hoping the boys will go for the garlic guard because I tried minced garlic and they ALL spit it out! | |

| this is what I do, and not that its totally correct, but its what ive learned from the betta king aka dave LOL
when I do weekly changes, the vita chem and fish protector always go in...and the garlic pieces (mine like it and finding garlic guard is like giving up your first born) is what my fish get after I fast them on sun..they get it on monday so I know they will eat it cause they are so mad I didnt feed them on sunday...
If im wrong, ill be corrected im sure but thats my plan for now seeing how my kids like it...im sure theres others that do it different, and I follow along with other suggestions but theres my few cents worth..and it wont cost ya a dime  | |
