It's been way, WAY too long since I updated my goldfish and betta galleries.
My website is still extremely outdated and non-updated, but here are some new photos I just uploaded. Hopefully I'll get these on my site at some point before the next decade passes...

"Hey, what are you lookin' at? Scram!"
Eeek! Scary betta! Run away!
And, introducing my newest baby, Oliver Crowntail. You can call him Ollie. He's a crowntail betta, as opposed to the veiltail (a.k.a. pet store mutt) variety that I've always had before. He cost $7, about twice what I normally pay for bettas. But he was the smallest (youngest) and cutest one they had.
I got him at PetCo on Thursday, March 29. He hung out in a vase on my desk until I got Prince's old tank stripped, cleaned, and fitted up with new gravel and plants. I re-used the stump, the Roman columns, and a couple of the plants. Otherwise everything is new. I plopped him into his new home this afternoon and he hasn't stopped swimming around, exploring everything and playing "Where Do I Fit?" since. He's very curious and so far seems pretty friendly.
So once again I'm sharing bedroom with a betta. ^_^
