One of my bettas is ticking me off. Its the one in the 20g planted that came with the 10g. He LOVES his pellets, and jumps for my hand when i feed him. If i ever want to stick my hand in to fix my CO2 machine or vacuum the tank, he always jumps and goes for my hand thinking i have food. If i get close, he stares at me with beaty little eyes, slowly waiting

He scares me as much as the auratus. I think the betta got lessons from the auratus how to attack me. I often have to have one hand keeping the betta occupied while the other holds the python

The auratus bite still hasnt healed. He is the most food crazy fish ive seen all my life. Once, i had food, and he jumped 6 inches out of his tank, bit my finger, and jumped back in like a dolphin. He took out a piece of skin. Still a indent where he bit me.

...hhm...I should let you come over and feed my snake...she won't eat unless I 'dance' the thawed mice for her...and oftentimes she misses on her first strike...

I don't have problem with biting in my tank, but I do have a Danio that swims up the tube every time I change the water. You figure he would have learned by now.

" the circle of life i my tank- demonsharks story" lol


I lost 3 so far in 12 hours


One got vacuumed and was never found

One got his stupid head stuck in the aquaclear intake and tried to pry himself free and lost some flesh

one was just found this morning dead in the intake




I cant stand english either. Everyone calls the teacher the english communist. She wanted us to read a 500 page long book about sealing over spring break.
