Name for my betta

Post by moonraingirl »

Hi everyone,
I'm going to have a new pet betta. Don't worry, in this picture he's at breeder, he'll live in 30 litre (almost 8 us gallons) heated and filtered aquarium when he gets home :-)
I'd like to ask you for name suggestions. I was thinking about God's name (he's a boy ) connected to sun, moon or light or something gentle and peaceful.

I used to have a common, garden variety goldfish with a black upper lip. It made him look like he had a handle bar mustache.

Awww that must have been cute :-) how long did you have him?

Goldfish are great and I hope I'll be able to get a couple of them in the future. Right now, I don't have enough space for them.

Why not name him Neptune.

I think Lewie is a great name for the little guy.
Congrats on your new friend. :)

Mail delivery was too much for him and he arrived dead! I feel so terrible and guilty for being too lazy and ordering by mail instead of going to another town! :-(((
I felt bad about ordering by mail but many people including good and responsible fish owners do so with good experience so I decided to try it. Now I feel a terrible guilt :-( it really ruined my day... That I caused this little helpless guy to die of stress. I'm sure I'm going to cry when I get home from work.

Oo, that is so sad. I think a good cry is surely required. I'm a little teary myself.

I'm sorry, don't be too hard on yourself. I didn't know they would send fish by mail.
Can you get to an aquarium store?
