well since i live in newzealand and bettas are not that big over here all i ever see are blue or red VT. but still they are beautiful so i have a intresting coulered VT.

but today while in local petshop (dont realy like how they keep their fish but cheep for other fish related things) i see about 6 betta cups with some lovely little VT males in them all looking rather sad.so i just wonder in to the fish room and have a look at their one and only knife fish thats been sitting there for months and what do i see in a little breading hang on thingie is amazing. not only is it a CT its not blue or red its green and black..its beautiful.and i wanted it so bad but guess what i dont have the room for the lovely guy and i dont have the money for a new tank and there is no way in hell im gonna keep it in the cup like the stupid shop lady said it could live happly in.

im kicking my self right now cause all i want is that lovely CT. you dont know how lucky u guys are that u have can get such beautiful bettas
 
I'm not sure if you have them in New Zealand, but I go to "thrift" or "re-sale" shops for my betta containers.

I always fing nice 1g glass containers for less than $2.00

Just make sure you wash it really good.

BTW, I think you're lucky to live in New Zealand, from what I've seen and heard, it's beautiful. :D

I almost called it middle earth too. :lol:

The only thing that would worry me would be Orcs(sp?) running wild and un-checked throughout the county-side. -_-

ya newzealand is beautiful but it still has its down sides...im sorry to say but i have not seen a wild orc latly what a shame..i do do see my fare share of hoodrats.

newzealand is not bit on thrift shops or anything like that..we have op shops but thats just clothing ..fish keeping is not that big over here sadly a lot of cool fish are imported and cost about$200 for something nice looking

we dont have royal plecos,royal knife fish.some types of discs and angels

i saw a goldnugget pleco about this big [----------------] for $220.....the other day wish i had the money.

we got heeps of stupid looking gold fish but ya it kinda sucks when it comes to fish

i might just have ot put up some pics of beautiful newzealand for all the people who want to see where i live (next to a beach yippy)
 
hey, u shoulda snaged the guy up, when i find bettas i want ill userally buy them and wen i gte home find theres no room. ill userally keep them in the cupp with fresh water and meds for abouut a week till i find propper houseing. they can live ok in the cups but the water conditions are what kill them quik. -_-
