Pictures of my bettas Sixxie and Flash :)

Ya I already have Melafix, bettafix, pimafix, stress coat, stress zyme etc...I keep a supply of pretty much everything. However, it doesn't matter because shortly after my last post he passed away.

I talked to the management and they said they would replace my betta if I bring back the two little fish (my pleasure!) and my dead bettas body. I am so upset over this. I feel like it's my fault, because if I wouldn't have gotten those two other fish Sixxie would still be alive!

I don't know, I might turn his tank into a female betta tank. Does anyone know if you can keep female bettas in with say, guppies? It's a big enough tank that I could throw in like three guppies and two female bettas...I think.

The photos I took the other day are the best ones I've taken of Sixxie too.

Sorry to hear about Sixxie

I think Sixxie might have been a girl!


That looks like an egg spot to me! Some girlies are really aggressive.. I had one that acted and even looked like a boy, but I realized he was a she after I saw her bar up and saw the egg spot. If you were to try a community tank with females, I would probably choose something different from guppies.. they've got those nice flowy fins that might be tempting to a betta. The only time I've ever been successful with a female community tank was after I had about 8 or 9 in a tank.. any less and it was total chaos. Girlies are so hard to deal with

Sixxie was sold to me as a girl, lol, but I thought because the fish had grown so much that it must have been a boy. I guess she was a she! I miss her so much.

Aww so sorry to hear about Sixxie!!

Thank you. I just feel like it was my fault. I really was attached to her. I know it sounds dumb because it was a fish, and you can't do much with your fish, but she was very unique. She was different than all the other fish I've had before. Shy, but oh so happy when you fed her lol. She was just so cool for a fish. It's weird too because since she's been gone I think Flash is more of a ham for attention. He keeps jumping out of the water every time I walk near his bowl to get my attention, then when I come to him he'll just sit there and stare at me until I feed him. Then after he's fed he gets all happy and swims all over the place lol.

I don't know, I've just always really liked fish. I should post pics of the cichlid I just rescued. I'm already so attached to him. I wasn't going to keep him at first, but in the short week he's been here I've already grown to love him. It's so cool because when I give him his Hikari pellets you can hear him chewing!!! LOL. It's the coolest thing ever!!!

Anyone have any name suggestions for my cichlid? He's huge, and blue and green in color, with a red outline on his fins. He looks pearlish in the light, and sort of glimmers. He's very pretty. I've looked online to try to figure out what kind of cichlid (I think that's what he is) he is, but I can't find any that look similar to him.
