"One Betta and His Home"

Uhm....look at this. Is that not a TINY bowl? I can't tell, but it seems to be less than 1/2 a gallon.

That seller lives about half an hour away from me...maybe I should take a little drive

Comparing it to the items in the background I'm sure you're right, if it's even 1/2 gallon. "Perfect home for your prize betta" - get real.

*shudder* look at the footprint that hideous bowl base takes up! that could easily be replaced by a gorgeous planted 2.5g... it's probably just me, but i always think those molded resin decorations always look so terrible.

It looks more like a pint, which I believe is 1/12 of a gallon. The bowl may be as much as 1/2 quart (1/8 gallon) but I doubt any bigger than that.

My college roommate used to have a bowl that size she kept Marvin, her "invisible goldfish" in. That is the only fish I would ever keep in that. (Hint- It was just filled with water and set on the shelf.)

that's awesome! now i wanna fill a bowl with silicone and set it up like that! (imaginary fish can live in imaginary water, right?)

Silicone is a good idea. Poor Marvin evaporated a few times.

I'd silicone in one of those plastic ones

I need a lil' tiny bowl for an imagenary fish...since I seem to have rotten luck with others besides my bettas.

At school for Cosmo. we had this 'movie' we watched called Fish, it was about being good to eachother, etc. Well, the second 'movie' had this hopsital that when someone did a good deed, they got a plastic goldfish thinger...in a variety of colors too!

We started doing that at school my last semester there...so I have a neon pink fish, 2 neon green fish, and 2 green fish....I should get them some 'goo' to live in, and plop them in a wee bowl. That way, I'd always have 'pet fish'
