Alright, so I now have a pretty purple beta fish in a bowl that my husband has named Rufus.  Can someone please tell me when this thing is going to start doing some tricks?  The pretty fish at SeaWorld do tricks....I think we bought a dud!
 

Dolce...it takes time and effort to train your fish to do tricks!  (LOL)  If anyone can do it, it is YOU!!  Good luck and keep us updated!!

  I'm pretty sure your hubby will be back at the fish store, buying a big tank, lots of supplies and lots of pretty fish.

I am sure you are right Jackie. One little fish always leads to more. If I remember my fish etiquette right. Dolce you can't put any other fish with your beta fish. They like to nibble on the other fishes.

Oh my!  How rude!  No girlfriends or buddies for Rufus.  The dogs have taken a liking to him though. 
 

That is true Dolce, no matter how many betas you put in a bowl, you will always end up with one!!!

The fish already did a trick.  He charmed you so that he was the one you picked out.  He knew a good thing when he saw it!!!

You are right, GE.  Those beautiful male betas are aggressive.  Need I make a comparison to the males of the species?  They also lived in puddles or something like that.  I forget my Beta history, forgive me!

Good Morning Monkeys!!   

I am so glad the monkey fairies came in cleaned up the mess!!  I was dreading cleaning up all day!! 

I saw that before.  What mess?  It is fairly orderly in the cage when you are sleeping...just sayin'.

Hi MT!!!

I see you have Little Lenny pulling his hair out in less than a day.

Hello MT!!

I think MM will like this.  It is kind of like the cow with the lips she is so fond of.

No I am sure I got Beta fish and not Anthony fish!!!

Aw you are so sweet Bearly! 

One more question though, do they get really big?  I am not going to wake up one morning to find him like storming the fridge am I?

Hi A1!  Is that why you are A1 and not A2?  Do you like to be the only beta in the bowl???  Or does A1 mean the Alpha1 female?

Aw poor fishy!!  So like my fish is a rescue fish from like a puddle?

Omy my gosh, this made me laugh so hard, Rm actually got up from his rocking chair to see what I am doing!!!  (Thank you Dolce)

Its a legitimate question!  If I wanted a pet that would rade my fridge I would just have my 21 y/o brother stay with me.

Being the middle child, you never get to be the beta in the bowl.
