A Lot of News

Well I got a few fish that go well with bettas and well they all where doing fine. Then I saw a few of the fish had ick so I put this medication that gets rid of it. Not only did it fail it ended up killing all of them with ick and the Rainbow……so well they are dead. The only fish left are two small fish. Well I believe when I GOT the fish they had ick because if I remember correctly one of them where just rubbing his body against the rocks. So I shall never buy from PetCo ever agine.

Yeah a lot of people say petco is good with fish but I have had a lot of problems with them in the past with my fish. Such as know they had the ick BEFORE I got them……tho I have not had on problem with petsmart. The new one tho has a lot more betta selection tho……so I will probably get a new betta from petco……….

I think all stores have good bettas and bad bettas. You just need to pick them out carefully.
