Third Time Lucky June 10, 2008
This is Andrew, my new Betta. The name tag on his little jar at the shop said ‘Andrew Gaze’. I didn’t like the name, but it’s stuck in my head now and I can’t think of anything else so Andrew he is.
I’m following some advice from a person on the dog forum who has a Betta in the same type of tank. She’s taken the lid off and only runs the filter every couple of days to clean things up a bit. Her fish has lived happily in that arrangement for quite a while, so I’ve got my fingers crossed for Andrew.
So far Andrew seems quite happy, although he refused to swish around the tank and show off his fins for the camera.
That’s one good looking fish. Sometimes they like a mirror to flare at. Also red painted fingernails…
