My Betta Story

[Eelzor]

It was a peaceful day at the pet shop. I went to the fish section and was inspecting the several different types of fish, wishing I owned them all. And I was walking past the betta tank, and I saw a half dried up betta breathing heavily and flapping weakly on the floor. I was shocked. How could have this happened? I saw the tank flap was a little open. That's why. So I reached down to pick it up. The betta flapped out of my hand. I picked it up again, this time cupping it. Thinking it was dead, I simply put it back in the betta tank to not make it look sus. (I mean picture yourself holding a dead betta fish in your hand and you in front of the betta tank and the manager staring at you like "What the hell did you do?") So, I dropped it back in the tank. And thankfully, it was swimming happily again. Then a man passes me and says, "Looks like he'll live another day". I guess he saw the whole betta rescue mission in action. And that's my heroic adventure.

I had something similar to that, a fish jumped out and almost landed in my hand... I saw it, and wnt into a state of shock, so i picked it up, and placed it into the nearest tank... Which was a tank of big fish... Forgot mention, this fish was tiny.
I was so tempted to put my hand in the tank of big fish where i accidently put this little one to save it., so i looked around to find a big fat very tall storeman looking straight at me.
"hehehe,"i said, and gave a big smile.
"A fish just fell on the floor, an i picked it up, and put it in here!" And pointed to this tank with massive fish in, " ah" he said, "thanks for that." He looked so peed off, a sort of walked away in a hurry, an didnt buy any fish. Im to embarrassed to go back there now. ahhgh
