Dare I Save Another?

[petitelupin]

So...went in to wal mart today
(its unfortunatly the ONLY place within 50 miles that sells fish)
and they had a whole bunch of terrible looking bettas. I did, however, spot a really gorgeous platinum looking one. its a CT, and i've NEVER seen one look this good from walmart. his whole body is the platinum color, and its in very good condition. He has a bit of crimson red webbing on his fins which just looks awesome.
I've already got two male bettas..and a 10 gal setup..in a tiny apartment.
but i cant just leave this little guy to go to waste!
do i go back and save him?

also...any name ideas, if i decide to break down and bring him home with me?

thanks
Hayley

Hi petitelupin

No matter how small your apartment is, you can always manage to fit another 2 gallon tank in. He sounds like a beauty!

well if you can get the right tank for him and dont mind, please oh please oh pretty please save this gorgeous betta or at least send him to me across the ocean!!!! LOL.
He sounds absolutely gorgeous I would snap him if can and have the space for the tank.

If you do save him you must remember to supply us with plenty of pics!

 

[petitelupin]

well..i DID save him hehe
and as soon as he perks up i will supply plenty of pics. he seems a bit shocked to actually have room to move!
BUT this morning he actually flared a little..so precious.
I'm thinking of naming him Bacardi...just because all my bettas arte named after booze. (Hennesey and SoCo) heheh

i like the bourbon/ whiskey theme...why not stick with that? although rum is nice too spent over a year on schooners so im keen on rum!
cheers

That thing where they're weak swimmers from being kept in teeny cups makes me sad every time.
My girls were like that at first, and now their favorite thing to do is play in the filter current.

 

[petitelupin]

yea he's doin alot better now, hes always movin...but still havent gotten him to really flare yet.

my other CT, Hennesey, isnt too happy with him lol...whenever i put them beside eachother he goes nuts.
