This weekend, I got a new pet. It is a betta fish. I chose a male because they have bigger, prettier fins. My betta fish is red, blue and purple. His name is Phoenix. Here is a picture of him:
He lives in a 3 gallon fish tank. Phoenix was going to live in an Aquafarm, which we got from our friend. But once we got the Aquafarm, we realized that the tank was too big and the top didn’t fit right.
I got Phoenix from Petco after going to the movies and Thai dinner. This fish was one of the cheapest. The others that had bigger fins cost about 5 dollars more. His fins are squished up in this picture, but sometimes his fins are spread out and beautiful. The reason of this is that every male betta fish gets intimitated by other male betta fish, so they spread out their fins to look bigger and stronger. Phoenix is an awesome fish, though! 😉

Phoenix is the perfect name for his colors.
His current bowl is 1 gallon- that aqua farm tank was 3 gallons.
