Hello!! This is Glover, the yellow boy!! 💛

It's been two-three years since Georgie passed, and I went on a fishblr hiatus pretty much the whole time. I've had one other betta, Koi Boi, who passed mysteriously not too many months after I got him.

Grieving two fish and feeling very down on myself, I didn't even want to think about another tank for a couple years. And then, all at once, I was feeling very ready and excited. I started up a new tank and saw this little guy at Petco. His soul is like the reincarnation of my son Georgie, and I fell in love instantly. I don't really believe in fate, but if I did, then this would be it. In my heart, this little Glover is my son, and Georgie's brother. I think Georgie would've like him. And also hated him of course, as male bettas do.

One thing I want to address is that he is actually a Glo Betta, which I do not endorse. It's only because of the connection I had to him personally that I purchased him. Otherwise, I would have no intention of buying into further genetic mutation of betta fish.
