My new pet baby
Meet my new baby betta Bystrík!
I got him in a chain petstore in an ugly inhumane cup. There were more of them on the shelf and I wanted to rescue everyone but I couldn't. And if I got more of them they would order more, so it would be pointless anyway.
So, here he is, in his new 25litres aquarium (6.6 US gallons, 5.5 UK gallons). It's heated and filtered (see the diy filter at the back?, did it acording to yt video :p). His favourite place is near the heater. I'm sure the poor thing was freezing in that store cup and now he can't have enough of warmth
His name is Bystrík. It is an old Slavic name that is not used often anymore. It has two meanings.
bystrý means smart, clever
bystrý is also an adjective used to describe pure, pristine water, especially when describing a stream in the mountains
letter "k" is used to form a deminutive. When it is at the end of a word, it signifies that it is something lovely, cute or dear to you
As you can see, he's still young and he should grow and maybe change colors. Although I love his current color- it changes from pink to blue as light shines differently on him
If you want to look at him, I made an album. Hope you will be able to see it https://goo.gl/photos/KoN34iDr2N2cYzx7A

I don't know if it's my problem or the link, but it's a blank.

Re: My new pet baby
Oh, I'll have a look at it when I'm on laptop. The problem is that the photos are too large and can't be posted on the forum.

Re: My new pet baby
These are my fish babies. I didn't name them, because I can't differentiate between the ones of the same species (I know, shame on me!)
My favourites are the two Sanitärs that put their mouths on the glass and seem to devour it. They are hilarious!
They are 3 Xypho, 3 Molly, 10 Neons, and 4 Sanitärs.( 2 of one kind, 2 of another).My favourites are the two Sanitärs that put their mouths on the glass and seem to devour it. They are hilarious!

Re: My new pet baby

Re: My new pet baby
The colours make me happy too. Yes, it's Eheim; all items have that label.
I can't remember how big it is....maybe 12-16l
