Straightening Things Out

[Inchworm]

Shadow took the leap of faith today. I couldn't find him in time to save him!! I came home to find his hex on the floor and him all dead under my bed!! I think the tank was too close to the edge of the dek it was on... He was almost ready for his show too!!!

Awww I'm so sorry to learn about Shadow,

So, is it because you feed him a lot? But how is he so big? If you fed him a lot when he was little, you must have overfed him! You sure Big Blue is a betta? What did you do besides feeding him a lot to get him so big? And live so long?

Oh and that's 82 Degrees, not 2 degrees on Big Blue's Tank! lol

Well when I first picked Big Blue from his herd of fry, I knew he was special. I did tend to overfeed him because I was just getting started. But I took excelent care of him because he started to balloon up to a large size in a couple of months. He got and still gets regular vet checks...He's totally healthy.

Can we see a picture of big blue? I find it hard to imagine!

Can you hold up say a coin next to him and take a photo or maybe even a tape measure or rule!

Like i say I would love to see him!

I'll add a couple cents worth here. THis is similar to what I've seen in a Pit-Bull forum I visit. A few of the members "Test" their dogs. It's not exactly fighting but kind of pushing to dog to it's limit to determine "gameness". Alot of the other members don't agree with this. And sometimes tempers flare at something being percieved as inhumane. Bottom line is we all aren't going to agree on everything and it's about how you go about disagreeing.
