Sir Bowser Tugsly (PIC HEAVY!)

[nochoramet]

Here he is, the little fish with a HUGE will to live. As of now, he is acting like all the rest of my bettas, swimming very actively, EATING, he even chases his little bubbles that come out of the top. He is very enamored of staring at the sparkly marbles that are in there with the brown gravel. I know it's a lot of pictures, and I'm sorry they are rather big, but I was excited, and want to upload them immediately. Oh, and by the way, do you think he might be a butterfly? With the way his fin tips are so pale compared to the pink on the rest of him?

Aww.... poor baby...

But, he is safe now!!! He will defiantly color up soon! Can't wait to see what he looks like in a few weeks!

He's adorable! I'm so glad you took him!

[dramaqueen]

He's very pretty!! It will be interesting to see what he looks like after a few weeks of tlc! :)

I am too, he's a little sweetheart. Definitely a camera ham though, which surprised me! And he is already eating! I am shocked at how healthy he is acting, to have been in terrible water and nose-less. I feel bad for him when he goes up to get air because he doesn't have lips to poke in the surface, he has to jump a little to get his mouth above water. But he manages! And he eats just fine!

I'm sure he's adjusted to his "disability". It sounds like he's got a great personality.

im really glad you were able to rescue the little guy, he looks great!!!!

I love him!! So cute! I'm so happy you got him!

[nochoramet]

Thank you everyone! I love him already, he's such a cutie. @dramaqueen, he definitely seems to have made adjustments to his disability. He gets along just as well as the others do, just a bit differently. What could have caused him to lose a nose though? I don't know if it was just a birth defect, or an injury, or what...
