Ive got 2 males so far. . . I cant bear to see them in tiny jars! Dats why i bought the 2nd one madarame ikkaku (thus named cause he has a huge flare just like the animé character,when he gets serious when fighting, of the same name). And ichigo the iceblue finned veiltail he is the older of the...

The aquabid thing confuses me as well. Im in south africa and id love 2 get some CT bettas. Bt there arent any here. I got me a paypal account but im trying to get as much info about shipping and costing etc. And i have send number of emails to 'the sellers' bt apparently my email address picks...

Yip i can get a pic. When i get home later il upload the pic of the filter with him(ichigo) stuck to it hopefully if he has not decided 2 visit the pearly gates.
Waterfall type filters are covered in the pinned section...about the mesh should i put in such a way that the mesh and the filter are apart as if it were close it would just suck ichigo in again...and not chopping the rotor would help with the current? And will this effect the guarantee?
Last night i tried cutting a plastic jar so that it covered the filter but then filtration was a problem. The filter works on a venturi system to airate the water. Unfortunately money is an issue at the moment so buying another filter is out of the question at the moment. Il try the mesh idea...
Hi guys and girls. Hope somone can help me with a problem i hav wit the suction and current from my submerserble pump. When ichigo gets close to the above mentioned filter it sucks him agains it and keeps him there but he also does not fight it and wil stay there even after i chase him away 4rm...
Bad news! My 1 gallon tank sprang a leak during the night and my 22litre tank is not ready yet so im buying a tank this morning. The 1 gallon tank was the medical tank :-( . Crappy happening if ther eva was 1.
Eishwena!!! Mr venter. It does make me feel like an amateur. But i really like the crown tail betta but am content with my 'normal' betta using term normal loosely. Products are headaches down here in cape town not helpful though. Like Bettafin the owner of a pet store in ct lukd at me blankly...
