My turn for the next oops!

ok, good grief! I have a 10g cycling that will be a community tank, we have another 10 gallon that I was ONLY going to get the stuff to get it cycling. I'm going to divide it, with Shawnie's help, for 3 betta's.

So there I am, being very good mind you...and I walk by one stack of betta's and keep going...2nd stack...not impressed...3rd location...OMG! It was like he was yelling at me "TAKE ME HOME!" So here he is. I'm going to be in so much trouble when my hubby gets home. He's in a huge goldfish bowl right now just so I could get him in some clean water. I put some sparkly stones in there and glass jar to swim in and out of and he's tooling around playing!! He even ate. I'm so happy. He's so beautiful. I don't have a name I need something original and fun. I'm going to do something thinking about this.

I've tried to post a pic of him but for reason the site won't let me. I will try again later.

The pic really doesn't do his color justice. He's actually a light speckled bluish and purple with yellow on his fins. I wish I could get a true color picture of him.

He's so pretty! I can't believe how great his color looks, given that he's a new addition!

He has so much character and charm. It's funny I had him in a really big goldfish bowl on my kitchen table and every morning he would stare at me while I ate. It was kinda creepy at first. My youngest picked out her betta, I think it's a splenden. Really pretty orange male. His name is Mr. Sam. lol! I will post pics later.
