My last betta from my former spawning trials passed away the other night. She was old, leaning on about three years. Her name was Arwen (yes, LOTR, I am a geek), and she was such a vibrant, red lady. I was hoping that she would spawn but fate did not shine upon us. Either way, she was a good companion and a good little friend.
For me, this feels like a start of a new era. I will get my first betta for my second round of fishie companions rather soon. This one will most likely not be used to breed, but be more like a companion through it all. It's nice to have one around that is generally for friendship.
I've plotted everything out, and I do believe I will begin spawning my bettas this summer. It will give me ample time between college semesters to really get things going. I will be able to focus on the little details, putting together the spawning tank, and (hopefully) caring for the fry. It should be a relaxing task between bookwork.
Bah, I can't wait to get started. I love working with these little fish... almost too much!
