Little Fishes

Well, i had one Betta die on Tuesday :( So i took him back (yes they wanted the dead body) back to the store and "traded him" for a living one.

After all was said and done in the mall, we went to the zoo, didn't' have time to run home and drop off Mr Betta, so we brought him through the zoo with us. Yes... the fish went to the zoo. He was a trooper and held up, we were there about an hour and a half, lots of bumps and bouncing, i was really worried.... i mean.... i just had a fish die on me, i had been told they were good fish, lasted a while, but 4 days isn't a while to me. lol.

Well, i got him home and put in a new tank, and he's doing pretty well, I'm doing my first water change today... hopefully i am not doing everything wrong!

I did go today and buy some more fish, bought 2 algae feeders and 2 gold fish and 2 other small goldfish thingies... rosie's i think? NO, i didnt' put them in with the Betta's. :)

Well... tragedy struck me once again and already one of the algae feeders is dead! just laying on the bottom of the tank, he was the smaller one of the two and was in with the new Betta.... :( so now i get to take another dead carcass in and trade it for another fish. i hope i don't' spend the next month doing this!

The cats have been stalking the fish. i hope they can't figure out how to get on top of the entertainment center... or uh oh. maybe i need to figure out some kind of top with holes for the top of the goldfish.....
