hkbialik Posted February 4, 2015 Report Share Posted February 4, 2015 I've got the bug again. When I was a teenager, I had several tanks and betta bowls. My pride was my 60 gal community tank, fully planted, with loads of cool fish. When I moved away from home, I stopped keeping fish. Now it's a decade later and last week my 6-year-old daughter said she wanted a turquoise betta fish. Hm... those are hard to find. There certainly weren't any at the local pet shops. I ended up on aquabid, and well... now it's hopeless, lol. One LFS did have a few fancy bettas, so I bought myself a big-ear plakat male who is very pretty. All three of my kids now want fish, so I went on an aquabid shopping spree "for the kids" and soon I'll have some really beautiful bettas. I had "Little Mac" (kids named him!) in a 1 gal jar for a while, but now he's in a proper home, a 5 gal heated, filtered tank. I have some really neat ideas for decorating the fish tanks and my hope is to have each tank be a unique piece to make my home more beautiful. Having secure lids will be important, as you can tell by the photo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
