Stella was kind of my resurgence into betta fish keeping after I researched more into them. She passed earlier this year. She was a very good little lady. Since her passing, I’ve gotten three more, including little miss Dawnie here. Seems like she’s got the marbling gene, but she’s never lost her rosy lips!!

And do let me know if the water in the last shots looks too dark. One of my driftwoods I’ve got in there seems to be leaking a lot more tannins than I previously thought. Dawn doesn’t seem to mind, but I want her to be safe!!

I raised her from a little caterpillar, and today she decided to emerge!! She flew off after this video~

Hey all, I have this poor guy here who I think may not make it 😞 I found him on my plant outside, then he pupated by my doorway. I’ve been keeping an eye on it and up until now it was totally normal. I thought maybe he was getting ready to turn into a butterfly fully, but the last couple of chrysalises i had never looked like this. I removed him and took him inside for these photos, I just don’t know what happened to him 😭😭

He also seems to be really soft now, and may have a tear(?!) as I saw some liquid on him earlier. Im certain that means he wont make it 😭😭 Is there any hope?? Any ideas what may have happened?

(She’s sleeping in the first photo)

Her name was Marble, and she passed about a few months ago. When we got her at the pound, my first thought was that she looked like marbled ice cream, so we named her after it and the stone. The vet called her a diluted calico!!

These photos are horrible lol, she was so much more beautiful in real life. Her eyes were a sky blue, similar to a Siamese, and they became a more rich blue when she was happy. Gosh, I wish she was still here 😭😭😭😭

Decided on making Skyline into an okapi-corn!!

In celebration of Ulterior Motives being found, Valentine wants to sing her favorite part!!

Hey y’all. So, im having a bit of a breakdown ngl 😭😭😭 This is Bluebell, and i mistakingly let my younger brother play with her for a day. Never again 😭 She has these horrid hot glue stains all over her fur now, and it’s THICK. Theres also a piece of a mat?? Or something?? Stuck to the upper left of her that is also definitely not supposed to be there. I’m so heartbroken.

Is there any saving grace for her?? I’m using isopropyl alcohol right now to try and get some of it up. I can give her a hot ass bath if yall think it’d help 😭😭😭 Please, any advice is welcome.
