New Betta
I couldn't wait anymore.
I miss Lloyd terribly. His tank sitting empty is just wrong.
I stopped at Robbinsdale Farm Garden Pet Supply last night while doing several errands in that area. I have been in there before and they have always had a dozen or so Bettas in stock. Of course, I absolutely hate how they are displayed in this store. The ( Read more... ) -
