Wyoming, brrrr!
Well, good news and bad news, when I got home last night I learned that my sweet boy Cage had died while I was gone :(
He was a petstore betta, so I don't know how old he was when I got him, but I will miss that little guy :/

Also when I went out to my fishroom, I had to do a double take at my marble delta, he has completely changed colors in four days! When I left he was mostly white with some turq marble, now he's about half and half but the marbling is royal blue! He looks gorgeous :D

Annnnnnnnnd, my latest Wal-Mart rescue Jack the Ripper II has new growth on his fins and is very active, I was worried about him too, but he definately seems to be on the up and up :thumbs:

My new bettas come this afternoon, so I'm just scurrying around trying to get tanks ready :S I may do pictures tonight depending on how stressed out they are...may have to wait till I get home from Lake Tahoe on Sunday. Gawl, I am a busy girl :X


Here's Cage in all his glory and bubbles

Awww - I'm sorry about cage, but gald to hear Jack's doing well. Good luck getting everybody settled!
 
Sorry to hear about your fishy Cage. :( I'm sure he'll be highly missed.

On the other hand, how exciting that you're getting new fish! :thumbs: I'm glad all others are doing well and that Jack is showing signs of improvement!
 
Sorry for your loss and glad for your gain. Good to hear jack is doing better.
The way you talk about your betta's, I have gotten to know them. Almost feels like they are mine aswell. I'm sure i'm not the only one who feels this way. Be sure that your grief is shared. :byebye:
 
Thanks for the support guys :( He really was a special fish to me...

I have an update here quick, my fish just arrived from Washington and I was 15/16. I lost the little VT that I got at the fish store :/ Julie and Jenn can vouch that he was the most beautiful VT you've ever seen, but such is life. :dunno:

Everyone else is in their tanks and doing well :thumbs: I have a softball game that I am heading off to and then I will put up some pictures tonight :)
 
I love you Cage. :byebye: And goodbye little veil, you were amazing. :(



Glad almost everyone made it home safe and sound, we sure packed em as carefully as possible! :p I'm sure they're happy to get out of those bags.



I miss you Stepki!
 
Oh, that really sucks. He was such a cutie. I'm glad everyone else got there okay, though.
 
awww,Cage was beautiful. Sorry to hear that,Sorrell.

15/16 is a pretty good turnout for your shipment :nod:

Now get to taking pictures.... :hey:
