I went to the local Petco yesterday to get some bloodworms..and no I was absolutely not planning on coming home with another Betta! I passed the rack as it was on the way toward the freezer and I stopped just for a second just to see how they were being taken care of and there he was...this beautiful Silver/Orange Red Halfmoon just staring at me and I could almost hear him saying...HELP..GET ME OUT OF THIS CUP!
I picked him up and put him down twice..telling myself..YOU HAVE NO ROOM(I have 9 males throughout the house)and even walked away..somehow after I got my bloodworms on the way out I stopped again and there he was staring again soo..I couldn't help it and got him!
He's on top of my computer desk right now in a 2 gallon Hexagon shape "Betta House" I ordered a different style for him and should have it on Monday as I moved it's previous occupant into a 1 gallon temporarily as he's smaller than Mr. Brutus here.
I got my Balthazar the same way--sometimes they just know which of us are suckers. XD And isn't he a looker! I haven't seen an orange copper before and he's just gorgeous.
Wow! What a great find. Not sure I could have resisted either. Haha! I already have 3 (all the tanks are in my room) and my sis has 2 and when I go to the LPS it takes everything I have in me not to leave with a betta.
I just have 1 question. Is saw those tanks at the LPS and thought they were really cool looking and a good size but I'm wondering what you use to heat them? How do you fit a heater in there? Are the water changes harder since the oepening on top is smaller?

So pretty! I have a fish that could be a twin, except he's a veil tail.
