What's the most absurd thing someone told you about fish?
For me is when I was in 1st grade, (I got bit by the betta bug at a young age)I was talking to a friend about fish. She said that if you name your fish they die quicker. :shock:
Bettas only live for a week! (from my friend in third grade)
1fish2fish-I have heard the same thing about goldfish! It's just not true!
That bettas fight to the death in the rivers. (They won't if they have space to retreat)
I head from someone when I first started buying bettas that female bettas were really ugly and I would never want to buy one if I ever saw them 0_o how untrue is that...they are beautiful! I have more females than males.
My 3rd grade friend's mom cleaned the tank with soap by accident-she didn't know that soap is deadly to fish. The poor guy didn't even have a name yet.
That bettas were very boring fish that barely swim around. (I heard this from someone who kept him in a .25g bowl.)
Bettas like cold water.
Bettas only live a month at the most.
When a betta goes to the top of the tank to breathe, it means it is running out of oxygen in the water.
Bettas are saltwater fish.
