My Pet Betta "Gayden"

So for my 22nd Birthday, I received a Betta, AKA Siamese Fighting Fish. It started with a little joke that my brother's friend posted on facebook, on my birthday.  He said that he was going to have my Oldest brother, Vanganator, give me a fish, in a joking way. Well, in the end it was no longer a joke.  I really received a betta for my birthday.  The is a pretty, colorful and wonderful Betta.  I grew up in a family that loved to take care of pets and animals. So I knew what I was getting myself into.  I was also afraid because I've never really had to take care of my own fish.  My brother always took care of my fish for me. So I finally have my own, and I'm so glad that it hasn't died on me. hahah. That's always a relief.

My brother was also very kind enough to give me a tank and advice on how to take care of a fish. So I received a Betta, some fish food, a Fish scooper especially designed for bettas, and tips on how to take care of a fish.  There was a lot of things that I didn't know, and I'm glad he told me. I would have been that kid who killed the fish in two days.  hahah.  My brother also went with me to the store to go buy just a few more things for the tank, like decoration and gravel.  At a later date, we also bought a plant to help the ammonia level in the water. This way, I can ensure that my fish is less likely to die. I am so thankful for his help on everything.

Now everything is all set up, the tank looks wonderful, and I think my betta is happy.  With the help of my wonderful friend, Goldiglocks, I have decided to name him "Gayden".  So here are pictures of my pet Betta, Gayden.
