That's too sad. The funny thing is although it's an amazing fish, the picture quality isn't great. I mean at least steal a good pic! lol No really that's just sad to me that people are that needy to do this.
i kinda thought it was odd when he said 3yrs old because bettas only live for three yeras. the fish would be dead most likley or dying, and i dont think an old betta would look so nice.
Some bettas do live quite a bit longer than 3 years, that's a guideline. My college roomate had one that was 7 yrs old when he died, she cried for like a week.
