Aww cute pictures! I love Ula...great name too

 

[Synirr]

Ooooooooooh the sparklers!!!
Why can't I ever find any of those guys? Why why why!??!

Your cat is so adorable too Gotta love cats!

 

[Elise]

I'd never even seen sparklers or heard of them before my LFS special ordered them for someone. Then I just knew I had to have some and snatched them right up! Hehehe!

Yay, love for Ula!!! (He is such an odd boy, he is so gorgeous and poses so perfectly, but he is afraid of the camera or something, because when that is out, he will NOT pose). He was one of the only fish I bought for pure looks and not because he had something wrong with him or because of his personality. Although, I kinda lucked out because he is pretty quirky!

Yay, love for Bonnie, my kitty! She was a rescue kitty because the woman at my rescue (who ranks higher than I do ) said Bonnie was wild, crazy, and feral and that she wouldn't ever get placed (find a home). So her life was to be released in the wrecking yard with the other ferals to keep the population of mice down. I was like NO WAY! Considering that she had been my foster for two weeks and she was sweet. She's one of those cats that has to have attention on her own terms. She will come and get you when she wants attention. And you can't change her environment too much or she freaks out. But other than that, she's been a great cat!

ooh...what is Ulla? is he some kind of wild cross?

 

[Elise]

Ula was labeled "platinum roundtail betta" at the LFS (whom, by the way, know nothing about bettas)--they only got them in because of special order. I believe he is a copper plakat. I wondered if he was a wild cross, but since i know nothing about wilds, I would be guessing!

I take pictures with flash at the highest quality setting. I take the pictures at a 45degree angle. Looking down works best I've found. I typically don't use the zoom, instead I move close to the tank. By having it on the highest quality, I can take far away pictures and then crop it to just the part I want on the computer. I also usually take 3 times as many pictures as there are good ones (for every 1 good pic, there is like 2-3 other crappy ones!). It took some practice. Plus, you want to get them when they pause. Moving pictures almost never turn out.

How manu gallons is that tank you have in that pic? And where did you get the divider because I was thinking of dividing my 2.5 minibow tank. Oh by the way

 

[WILDER]

Lovely bettas love the sparklers.

 

[Angel Lady]

I love the bettas and nice cat also..

 

[Elise]

I had bought the mini bow 2.5 that came with the plastic betta divider, but they bit at each other through the holes, so I used plastic craft canvas and cut it to fit. It's wonderful!

 

[Durbkat]

Where do you get it at and with mine it came with a filter and I was wondering if you could put vaction feeders in it considering only once side gets filtered?
