Bliss

[CodeRed]

Time to meet Bliss, the newest, but perhaps not permanent member of my ever-growing family. I say perhaps not permanent because he was bought to be a fish for an old friend of mine, who's having a birthday, but I've fallen in love. I'm smitten. However, you probably won't see why, since he loathes the camera. He is IMPOSSIBLE to photograph, and I don't exaggerate. I can't even bring the camera up above the gravel, because he'll dart off, and I mean dart, and I won't see him for five minutes. The only reason I have pictures of him is because he couldn't really dart when he was in his bowl.
So, here he is. {Oh, and his name is short for Blizzard.}











His tail looks torn, but it's really just transparent. It's another little reason why I adore him.
Sorry for the terrible quality of the pictures, but I mean what I said. It's physically impossible to get pictures of him .

He's so pretty!

[InsideTheBurg]

Oh he is gorgeous! I would not be able to give him up.

You know what the best part of the whole buying him was? A worker at Petco came up to me and asked me how many bettas I had now, since I went there about every other week to get a new one XD I've never felt so good. He asked me how I picked them out, and I told him I loved the Deltas. It was really interesting, because I never thought I was gaining a reputation among the Petco world x333

[DragonFish]

Awwwwww, hes so cute! He reminds me of Smore, just without the spots xD
I'd totally not be able to give him up xD

Haha, I know what you mean. I've pretty much made friends with the fish section manager and another employee at my LPS who know know me as the Gourami and Betta girl

What I think I love most about him is he's got the whole white, but minty green sheen sometimes thing going, like Vulcan does. It makes him look very pretty.

That's great xD I can't wait until I go there often enough that I know everyone... xD

[dramaqueen]

Me too, at my Petsmart. I just found 3 dead bettas the other day and one had FILTHY water. I told them about it and they were unpacking boxes but they said they'd take care of it when they were done. I hope they did!

[CodeRed]

That's horrible! I did notice one or two bettas near death, but none dead. I couldn't tell anyone because it was PACKED. I had to wait about ten minutes in line before anyone would check me out, and even then it was very rushed.

[DragonFish]

Yeah, Smore has that too, that minty green/bluish shine to him when he swims the right way. And he also has a pinkish tinge to him

xDD Its awesome when they recognize you Hopefully I can get a job there!

[CodeRed]

I TOTALLY want a job at a pet store. It would be my dream come true, really. A chance to rescue the bettas without the hassle of buying all of the decorations and tanks. The bad thing is is I would see all the gorgeous bettas and have to resist buying them :P I think I could live though, as long as they went to a good home...
