Title: My betta went to the Bridge today...

I woke up this morning and knew almost instantly that he, (my betta) was doing well. I saw he didn't eat his food from the night before, then he was swimming funny and about a 1/2 later, he was at the bottom of his tank... :( I hope it's not something that I did...my last betta lived for 5 years..he was flushed a few hours ago, I miss seeing him swimming around in his tank...rest in peace little guy... :(

:comfort: Betta usually live only 3 years or so. From what I've heard most pet stores don't know how old they are to begin with. :( The smaller the betta the younger...if it's already 2-3" than it's mostly likely older.
RIP lil' Betta...now he can play with my betta Seth, :hug:

that's good to know about the size of the betta thanks for sharing, I'll keep it it in mind next time, if and when I decide to get another betta. I sure do miss seeing him swim around, so does Misha, apparently..
