Well i love firethorn so much so i got another betta for my 5g. I had it down to three bettas and he was the most active, u was moving cups around and saw him in the middle of the shelf swimming around, not laying there like most. He's VERY active so i had trouble getting good pics, but here he is!. Also, i need a name for this new guy.
The third is his tank.

oh, thats the one glowlight that i STILL have. I've had this one fish for 2 years by himself, because i can't buy him friends ( i don't have room) and noone wants one glowlight, so i put him in there.

Thanks, Squirt.
I've got a baby name book that I bought when I was naming my kids and now use to name my characters, so I figured it could work for naming fish too. :sbiggrin:
All this betta talk, I think I'm definitely going to get one once my 5 gallon is cycled! :luxlove:

I goti t. In my art class today we were talking aobut greek art and such and we were talking aboyt the gods. So i was looking at them and then it came to me. Aphrodite is such a cool name. I think that's what im gonna name him.
oh but i was reading through ruecoles name (thanks that helps alot!) and i came across domingo, which i like too. So guys which should it be Aphrodite or Domingo?

How about calling him Bari? Its an Italian gypsy word meaning the 'zest of life'.

Well, since Aphrodite's a girl's name, I'd probably go with Domingo.
Or what about Apollo? Or Aries?
