I was planning on waiting til Christmas, but we were in a town 2 hours away and happened to see an Earl May so I went in because the walmart here doesn't have crap for fish supplies. So I WAS looking for fish supplies, but I saw some crowntails (they don't have them at my walmart, and they aren't as brightly colored, either) and one in particular that jumped out at me. Since I didn't have another tank (besides my old one gallon) I was about to walk out of the store but my mom asked me if I wanted it... so of course I couldn't say no and she definitely was not helping! Haha.
So on our way back we stopped to get another 5 gallon tank, some gravel and a few caves for him. My silk plants should be here tomorrow and I ordered 8 so I'd have enough for two tanks.
He did survive the 2 hour drive home but it a little scared now, which isn't surprising. I still have him in his cup because I'm sure he's already stressed from the car and I don't want to stress him out more too soon :/
I AM THINKING about naming him Mitsu (meaning three; he is my third betta, ever) but I am still not 100% sure.
Feel free to give me name suggestions if you have any, I'd appreciate it ;)
