get a load of this "betta info" site

[Abby]

i fund the pic of the two glass bottles together and wanted a closer look and was forwarded to this site

http://www.squidoo.com/betta

That's a Polyvore picture.

In case some of you aren't familiar with Polyvore it's a site that mainly involves clothing and such to allow you to put outfits together without having the actual clothes- collages, basically.

Meaning that that image is not real and should not be a cause for concern- someone probably thought it looked cool.

Granted, they shouldn't be kept in bottles, or anything small, but just to inform everyone, they shouldn't worry about that picture, it isn't real.

thanks wild magic i didnt get a chance to look at it, the info took my focus and i closed it before i could look at it

[Luimeril]

oh, gawd. that site is horrid. :/ i read through it, and almost laughed. >.>;

[Abby]

every line i was like "Uh no" and told myself the correct version

That is awful! I am new to fish, but even I know what a load of poop that is!
Fish can last 10 DAYS without feeding! WHAT?!

Horrible. And they had a video of betta's fighting!

14 days without food is correct, but its unhuman to leave any animal without food that long, even a few days is horrid

i feel bad if i miss one day of feeding my babies! ;A; i know it's good for them, but i still feel bad.

Eh.. mine have gone 14 days without food and all were fine. They would have been much worse off going through the stress of the 4 hour drive to and from home for the holidays.

However, the rest of that information was laughable. There is no such thing as "Japanese fighting fish"... in fact I'm pretty sure that there are no betta species from Japan.

1fish there are feeder blocks you can get if your going away over long periods
