Sorry, sorry, sorry. I just knew my bettas would hurt them and maybe kill them because of past experiences. No other fish were injured and all the fish were fine. Louise, sorry but I don't need you always picking at me in every thread I post about. So you can lay off. I raise fish the way I want and my fish are happy. I build bonds with all of my fish so much that they trust me and know when I feed them. Or know when it is time for a water change. Sometimes, they'll do tricks by themselves just to impress me and I reward them like all fishkeepers should. Trust me, when you put over $500 into 1 betta, your a true fishkeeper. And then ontop of that an additional $200 on other fish and other tanks.So don't say I dont' know how to keep fish. I research fish at least months before I buy them like all the members here should. I calculate everything and prepare everything so stress is limited upon arrival. I buy everything prior to buying the fish, even if it isn't necessary. I take all precautions and treat all my fish when injured, hungry or simply depressed. I know what your supposed to do and ontop of this, I'm being promoted in the job I work at (in fishkeeping) because of the excellent skills I show to other employees. I can sell a week's shipment of bettas in 2 days MAX. I tell people the dead truth, guide them into the right choices, and even get the odd "Can I have your number to contact you, if needed?" Don't be running your mouth like I am, saying I'm a disgrace and all. I may be 14 but I know what I'm talking about. Forums are mostly about true facts, but here and there, there and little threads where it's your own opinions, and ideas. This is one of them. You share past experiences to show other people ideas of situations that might occur. The one I posted about is one of them. In my situation, platies are no good with my bettas because they weren't raised together or simply are not supposed to coinside. Either way, your arguing with a 14 year old that's supposely "needs to grow up". I've done all the growing up I need. Raising fish isn't just a hobby to me, it's my life, and my future career. I want to be in the fields of marinebiology for a reason. I give it my best at being agood fishkeeper and if that's not up to your standards, that's fine by me.
