Lancelot! Hmmmmm, might be the perfect name. Again, I'll just have to wait to meet him. I've also thought of Norbert: Hagrid's baby dragon in the Harry Potter tales, before Norbert grew up.

Very interesting that three non-betta people saw my and Pandora's dragon bettas and are now "converted." To all of you: You'll love them, not just for their looks, but especially for their personalities! Well, I think the dragons will have huge personalities that connect with their humble people, just like the rest of the bettas do!

I bought tetra safe start from aquariumplants.com and i was less than impressed. They receive such good reviews and i believe mine was a one off, but it put me off them.

1st i did 2nd day delivery which was ment to be delivered on a friday and didnt it sat in the UPS warehouse until tuesday when it got delivered finally. The plants didnt look great but they refused to refund the money or replace the plants + i ordered 2 bottles of tetra safe start and only one arrived!! Amazingly they did redeem themselves slightly by sending out the other bottle of safe start ground delivery (which arrived quicker than 2nd day??)

This was my only experience with them i'm sure people have had good experience and i was an unlucky one.

Congrats on the new boy, hes so handsome.

Pam....I think we'll solve the problem of cycling by meeting 1/2 way this weekend with a tank full of cycled sponge lol

Pam...

I'll be in Tucson Sunday afternoon.....I have a job out there...Do you need filter seeding?

Norbert is a great name, too! So cute! Maybe I will save "Lancelot" for when I get mine.

I have always thought bettas were lovely, but I was put off by the whole "one to a tank" thing. I can only talk Husband into so many aquariums and I can't push my luck when we're about to move.

Good luck with your new baby. I look forward to many more pictures! <nudgenudgewink>

Thanks for the tip about Paradise Pets. I called them to see if I could get overnight or two-day shipping. The guy was really nice, but the shipping was going to be $19. Thanks also to Annadvn for sharing her experience with aquariumplants.com.

Yes! Fabulous! I'll call you, okay? BTW, I saw your kind offer after calling Paradise Pets. Otherwise, I wouldn't have bothered them.

OK Pam...Give me a call tomorrow and we'll arrange a time to meet...I have to be in Tucson by 3pm....I think this will work really well for you....I'm seeding another tank from Wills right now.....He has helped jump start more tanks lol His memory will live on through all the betta kids he has helped....
