lol He's spoiling all the fun! I may be getting another one sooner than I thought. I've got one dying on me. My little rescue betta has been on the bottom all day and he's not moving. I think its mostly old age because he had been slowing down lately and he doesn't have any diseases that I can detect. I would guess he's around 3 years old. Poor thing.

Aww im sorry. Poor guy. Yeah dad sure is haha! Ah well.

dramaqueen

Yeah, poor little guy. I saved him from being flushed. My cousin's granddaughter refused to take care of him and my cousin's daughter was going to flush him but my cousin said no, not until she talked to me. I hated to see a perfectly good fish being flushed so I took him. I nursed him back to health but he still had some issues from being knocked out of his vase onto the floor by their cat. Poor little guy had a horrible life with them. No water changes, not being fed properly and in a half gallon vase. :(

fishyinpa

awww thats horrible! well he got a wonderful rest of his life with you! :)

dramaqueen

your welcome dq. so tomorrow i gonna have to get a check valve for the stooges bubble wall. im also thinking about getting a small air stone for bella. ill have to get a gang valve for that.hopefully i can figure how to rig that all up!


i looked at the fishies at the lfs and felt bad for the female bettas. there were like 10 of them in a 10 gallon,most had their finnage ripped off. i so wanted to rescue one! sigh these fishies are gonna do me in lol.

I got an airstone awhile back to put in Jaden's tank but I think I'll put it in someone else's container. I got a check valve for mine and may have to go with a gang valve, too if the bubbles are too strong. I don't know how to rig those things up either. lol

fishyinpa

Yeah. Well if i figure it out Ill let ya know lol!

dramaqueen

ok, thanks! lol

fishyinpa

well i got a check valve for the stooges bubble wall. gonna sound somewhat dumb lol but ya know how hard it is to see if water is moving?! Very hard! took me awhile fiddling with the check valve to tell if the bubbles were coming out or not. All good now! Stooges seem to like.

I got a gang valve and stone for Bella. Havent set it up yet though. I have to change her water anyways,so good timing!! Doesnt look too complicated...
