I gave two bettas away in the past 2 weeks. I think I always get people hooked on betta, becoming as crazy about them as I am. Is it a good thing? Well, it proves that I am influential, or perhaps the bettas are very powerfully influential little animals. I can’t help but to fall in love with them, and now more people are becoming like me.

It is always a pleasure to watch them swim around and flare. One new betta daddy told me that his little fella swam into an underground filter through the opening and got trapped underneath. He was shocked of its magical disappearance when he heard some tiny noises. Luckily the filter was not running. He hurried to its rescue… Another time the new daddy asked me if the fish would be drown because it needed to get air from the surface, even in sleep. Isn’t it great to feel that you are responsible for another precious life? Every inch of growth (for betta that might mean one year of feeding) means so much all at a sudden.

It is time for me to stop my betta obsession now. I will continue to love my babies. I promise them that I will not give them away. But I will not buy more to give away. It is sad to part with them… =”( I will, however, be glad to help daddy and mommy to pick new babies and try to provide as much information as they want to know to keep their babies healthy and happy.

Butterfly, Snow White, and Dim Sum, mommy loves you guys.. Muah!
