    Those are beautiful fish! And that's a very cool set-up for them.

    Aren't they beautiful. My son-in-law is very active in the MN Aquarium Society and has been for many years. He has 65 aquariums in his basement "fish room". One of my favorite quilts to have made was one made from his collection of aquarium T-shirts. It really turned out well and he loves it too.

    Beta's are gorgeous fish! I used to have a few when I was a teen. I love your set up too.

    when my husband was alive I had beta fish, I thought they were so beautiful. He could not stand them cause he felt so sorry for them cause they had to be by themselves, so eventually I got rid of them. Seeing your post reminded me of this. I nevee thought to put two in the same tank separated as you have them. thanks for the memories.

    I was with my brothers step GD yesterday. We went into a pet store and saw a really pretty Beta there. I will probably go back and get it for her I didn't have the money yesterday and they had a great special on too. Everything for a set up for 12.88 , fish , gravel, bowl, water, food and a plant. I would love to get a fish tank again and maybe a parakeet. :-)
