My 10 Year Betta Experience

[Fanatic]

I created this journal to show and talk about my bettas, and it's currently undergoing a lot of maintenance due to loss or change in the population of my bettas, so changes are being made.

My mom just didn't understand when I said I wanted to get six more females for my sorority.
"Huh? What do you mean, 'sorority?'"

Thanks for sharing!! They are so pretty!! I have an empty 5 gallon tank.. trying to decide if I want to put a betta in it or not... You may have just convinced me!!!!

Beautiful bettas and set ups you have I have a two year old betta who nips his fins I've tried everything to help him but nothing has sadly worked.
Yours are stunning!

Nice fish. I currently have two male Bettas and am seriously considering a third.

I am hitting the sandy beaches of Florida!
It's actually a business trip for my dad, but he's dragging the whole family along, so we couldn't say no
I am leaving all the tanks here by themselves, everything should be okay, but this is my first time away from my tanks without having someone feed them.

We actually do have a keeper coming, but I don't trust them with my bettas, so I put away all the food and water conditioners.
I also got timers for the lights, because the tank is a planted tank, and really shouldn't go dark all week.
So, I won't be on very much tomorrow, but will still pop in and post

Thanks, they are really special to me
I need more plants, lots of java ferns!

I really want to do something, but doubt I will.
I have a spare five gallon tank, and want to move Martin into it, just because I have nostalgia, and want to keep him alone in a planted aquarium.
Anyways, it'd need way more plants, there aren't enough to make it as dense as I would like it to be, so the next trip out, we'll get java ferns and anubias.
