This isn't a crusade or anything. This is me reacting to seeing a huge end cap of live bettas at Walmart. I'm certain most these fish will die rather than be bought. And I surmise their whole reason for being there is college students.
When I went to college, I got a betta. (Mine came from a pet store, though.) When I dropped out, my mom took Jimmy Dong and took care of it. Yes, I named it.
Now, here's what I really wanted to say. I think bettas are not like other fish. You get swarms of tetras. You might get a special stand out fish. But, they all share lives. Bettas are alone and thus, you get to know them. Jimmy Dong tried to get everywhere fast and to see what was going on outside of his tank. Muushu (the one I had when my son was a baby) swam slow and kept his distance from the wonders of the outside tank world. And I loved them both like I have my cats and my dogs.
