Hey Meanies,
Last week Wednesday I bought a new family member that I have been dying to get months ago. He's finally here ! Meet Oggy my first son/betta :-). I love this betta & I only have had him for 5 days. This would be my first time taking care of a fish by myself.
Growing up I had various pets : rabbits, bearded lizard, snake, parakeets, and fish. Yes I have a great love for animals, I probably prefer them over humans...lol. So I think Oggy is spoiled already acting like a prince. I created such a beautiful palace for him & it seems he like his studio apartment (the container he came) a lil bit too much. He has been in this container for 5 days, next week I will be putting him in his tank. Oggy will have a nice & toasty new life. I had to get a tank heater because my house is ummm how can I say this, always a couple degrees colder than outside. If I'm cold he has to be cold as well. I just got him , I'm not trying to kill him. Even though I'm paranoid.
Almost every couple mins , I'm checking on him....lol. I'm excited but also nervous because Oggy is already a picky eater. Bettas can go a whole week without food. But he needs to eat, right ? I just hope he's not stubborn and starves himself to death. Hopefully Oggy can live for at least 3 yrs :-) I'm also thinking if I should give him some friends to play with. Hmmm we'll see if he gets use to his new home first.
Also, Oggy is not too fond of his store bought fish food (flakes or pellets). But he sure would inhale fresh salmon........
