Authentic Betta Bowl

[dwarfgourami]

I wasn't "shocked" per se

I was more taken aback at the condition of the toilet bowl and alley it was in. You have to be honest and admit that it is not clean

I don't think my post was immature and rude- I just could not understand how you can know that that toilet bowl was not clean. Have you tested the water? A brown tinge to the water does not indicate it is insanitary. Almond leaves are commonly used by betta breeders for its health giving properties, and it does tint the water, it's supposed to. On the other hand, a crystal clear tank can be absolutely deadly if ammonia or nitrites are present- and they don't make the water look dirty.
Again, I fail to see how the untidiness of the yard would affect the quality of the water. As I stated in my earlier post, an indoor location in a household that uses anti-bacterials and air fresheners is likely to be much more dangerous.
I am not basing my opinions on Cracker's popularity ratings, but am trying to use my fishkeeping experience. Which tells me that fish don't care about their surroundings looking pretty, they care about clean water and good food. And I don't see why you could not have those in a(n unused) toilet bowl. As I pointed out in a previous post, toilet bowls do not come filled with excrements from the manufacturers. If Cracker had posted a picture of himself doing his business in said bowl, it would have been a different matter....

Anyway, I know that I went a little overboard in voicing my opinion

People really need to drop it and stop jumping on my case about it. Get over it already

I'm over it and don't keep harping about how I feel

Good, I'm glad that everyone likes Cracker and that he is a fantastic betta keeper. Good for him

I wish I could be as popular on a message forum as he is...but alas, it is not to be


And yes, I know I said I was over it; but when people have to keep jumping on me and making rude, immature comments then you better believe I will come back with a response

Yes, I have read what an awesome betta keeper he is. No, it will not change my opinion on the toilet issue. Accept it and move on

I understand what your saying. And I do believe that everbody should DROP IT. It's your opinion, and you can voice it if you want to.
People now-a-days just can't seem to let go of flame-potential posts. Such as in my topic....nobody would drop the bowl issue and just move on....

I've heard of someone keeping a betta in a filled blender...

How about an upside down top hat?

They look wonderful even in a toilet bowl Cracker... tbh, the water looks clean, the bettas look healthy, and there seems to be enough space... isn't that all that fish need?
I don't like continuing arguments, so I will end my post by saying good job as always!
