#fish adoption

Obviously this is a last case scenario since I currently have room for them all and they are not breeding... but if some of them are not compatible personality-wise with the others I can't afford to keep multiple single-fish tanks (my apartment isn't big enough!)

Betta rescue and adoption is a go! Meet the first adoptable!

Julian is an adult male crowntail. He’s still getting used to his new tank, so he’s a bit clamped, but relaxing.

He’s got a bit of swelling, a couple holes in his tail, and it looks like his gills are a bit inflamed or burned from ammonia. Once he heals up and fills out, he’s going to be so handsome.

Now we wait a month to add fish.

Hmmm. You could possibly try posting yourself, on Craigslist and in fish groups, adoption sites, etc., that you’re looking to adopt glo danios! It could be that there’s someone who wouldn’t mind rehoming theirs, but doesn’t feel strongly enough about it to post them? Or doesn’t think that there would be someone who wants them. 

My friend’s comet, Alejandro.

After the PETA post, I decided I was somewhat pot-to-kettling. So, in the spirit of not being as big of a douche as PETA can be, I figured it might be good to try to DO some good for fish.
