I accidentally drank the betta Kool-Aid...

[SadieCM]

My kid's 10 gal has been set up, planted, and cycled for 2 years but we never got around to getting fish. Today she fell in love with a betta. Now I'm completely obsessed with him. I never got it before because I haven't had a betta since I was 10, but he's super fun!

Meet Bubbles.

The multiple tank Kool-Aid tastes similar!

It’s like potato chips. Can’t have just 1!
Actually I’m probably worse with fish tanks than chips.

Beautiful fish you have there! Looks very happy.

I already have an empty 60 waiting for me to build it out...on top of this 10 and my 46...

He is the luckiest fish! A whole 10gal paradise to himself!

I tell pppl why have OCD if you cannot enjoy it?

MTS - currently 12 fish tanks, down from 14. I am work in progress. But I enjoy the hobby so imo it's not a problem


OP - he's gorgeous! love his coloring

He's a real eye-catcher. My MTS is in progress and I fear I have infected my husband and child...

Wow he looks beautiful, I remember when I got my first betta, he was a red and purple crowntail betta named Blaze, he lived to be 5 years old in my 5 gallon planted tank, I even trained him to jump out of the water to get pellets, I would hold the pellet in my fingers about a inch above the water and he would jump up and grab it out of my hand, I still miss him to this day.

Lol that's hilarious - I've met so many dogs with my name! Bubbles seems like a good boy so far but we'll see! He flares at his reflection but hasn't been aggressive yet.

How’s bubbles doing?

I like the colors. He's a lucky little fish.
