been awhile

But had the itch!!

got my "NEW MAN OF THE HOUSE"

He's a double tail veil tail boy ..say that five times fast! his eyes are about as big as his head...

hes in bad shape from the store having no power for 4 days..he even has a crooked spine but he's a tiny tiny boy and he just hopped in my purse

I got him today while at work, was at the LFS because our tank at work suffered a severe case of ICH from no power..so needed meds..and of course had to check the bettas out...saw this lil man and said im taking him..she said well we are returning him as he isnt going to make it...on the side of his bowl were those sticky letters saying "male" and somehow, after getting back to work, one of my employees said "shawnie, your fish poo's letters"!! the darn woman had poured the sticky letters in his bag!!! so my girls at work named him lettie

I asked my daughter to check on him as I was chilling on the couch after a long day, and this is the check I got ...think my kids are jealous of my fish babies? (have your sound up)

Ohhhhhhh that's wayyyyyy too funny!

He's so pretty, I love him! His spine doesn't look too bad in the pics. I hope you can pull him through.

Shawnie, I know you will give him the best home you can for the remainder of his life, and if not you will fix him up in a new tank.
