So I posted couple days ago about this ct betta I saw in petco and fell in love with, but decided against getting him well I couldnt stop thinking about him so I posted about it on here was told I should go back and get him, that if he was still there then it was "meant to be" :) So I went back yesterday (2 days after I originally saw him) and he was still there! So of course I got him

Introducing Tiberious! (sorry the pics arent great my camera had an unfortunate runin with a fish tank and now its not working right)

Pots like that are usually either clay or resin. There is a plastic variety, but I've never seen it in any stores.

He's a pretty fish. Good choice! :good:

Wow! I've never seen a Betta like that in a pet store! Petsmart and Wal Mart has its ups and downs. Sure, the water can be kept really badly, and the fish may be unhealthy, but sometimes they put out really pretty fish, and price them the same as the regular ones. I often lurk around at Petsmart sometimes just to see if I can find some treasure. =)

Anyways, I'm glad you got him. A similar thing happened to me... I saw a beautiful red male betta at Petsmart... But I couldn't get it at the time... Came back a week later, and he was still there! So I got him... But he died around 3 days later. I think he was constipated. D: -Sniff-
 
Glad you got him. He looks great.

I had a similar thing happen... and I tried soooooo hard to just ignore the guy. Went back 5 days later (at a petsmart too... so they are turning over bettas very fast) and he was still there. Immediately came home with me and had the best personality of any betta I have ever owned. Unfortunately I don't have him anymore due to a tank divider incident :(

I refuse to go into petsmarts and even peek at the bettas lol.... I know I'll end up with one.

I have a hard enough time not buying all the other fish while I'm browsing. :lol:
