You Know You're Addicted To Bettas When...

[Rediahs]

I just thought this'd be a fun topic. I had thought of a few and thought they were funny.

You know you're addicted to bettas when...

- you can ALWAYS pick out the male plakats mislabeled as females, and vice versa, in stores and pics
- every time you go to the pet store to pick up some dechlor or some meds, you clean out the betta section... because you just can't help it!! They all looked at you so cutely! They shouldn't look at you so cute, then maybe you wouldn't buy them....
- you tell your friends you can't go out 'cause it's water change night
- you can't name your fish, because there's no way to keep track of them all
- you're constantly on the lookout for betta housing containers (Oooooh, if I bought these 10 jars of pickles, and went on an all-pickle diet for 2 weeks....)


Any more?

-you say you're just going out to pick up a few things and then run accross a new petstore you've never been to and decide to go in and come home with a betta you dont have room for
-you trick your parents/spouse by saying you need to go in a store thats in the same shopping centre as a petstore and you dont even have to go in that other store you just want to have a reason to go in to the petstore
-you have weird dreams about bettas and they make you angry when in your dream people have males all together(dream I had last night, had to dream it to believe it)
I'm out for now, I'll think of sommore.

-when you move your ps2,tv and stereo out of your room to make way for betta tanks and you realise they have taken over your entire room!

When your brother visits you at your dorm room and says, "Your room looks like a fish store".

When you call fish stores and ask them for their shipping days on Betta's and you make sure to be the first one there on those days.

When you post under this thread...you know it!

-When you talk to your fish

-When you can't make a trip to the pet store without bringing a betta home

That's all I can think of..

When you start stealing furniture (like TV stands) from downstairs and bring them to your room to put fish tanks on.

When everyone tells you that you should start charging admission to the aquarium that used to be your room.

When you have a betta tattooed on your body...

-When you go in a petstore to get one betta and come out with 3
-When you dream about spawning and millions of betta babies.
-When you see a betta you like in the petstore, but don't have the money, then you go home, count out change, and go back and buy it the next day.

When you have to get a second job to keep up with your Betta expenses.

When, to your husbands absolute amazement, you stop going on about the new fridge freezer you need in the kitchen. Because, in a moment of panic you realised if you had a fridge freezer the microwave would have to go on a work surface and there is no space because of betta tanks. So, you tell hubby the old one is fine!

When, to husbands absolute bewilderment, after 5 or so years of him having to get your petrol because you dont like the smell, you start getting it yourself. Because, if you are super fast you can nip in the aquatic shop which is on the same road!

when your friends, workmates and family know not to mention the word F I S H around you as it will result in an epic conversation about what the littly fishies have been up to today.
