You know you're a betta addict when... (revival!)

[FoxChan]

When you have a dream about randomly having to move out of your apartment, and all you can think of is how to safely transport your bettas.... including ones you don't actually have... LOL

[sunnycomet]

This is sooo tempting....

When you plan to buy a fancy half moon betta but when you go into the store you buy a veil tale that ends up costing every penny you have in your purse.

Then when you get the betta your craving doesn't end. You now have plans to buy a female and breed your veil tail.

Even that won't calm you down because after you breed your veil tale you plan to buy a half moon betta pair and breed them.....

You lose every penny you earn for betta stuff...

So much for having ONE betta and being happy with that.....

When you're dying wish is; "Tell my bettas that I love them..."

[Maze]

When you cancel a little date with your boyfriend because your water heater broke on one of your tanks, it's cold, winter, and your room is freezing, and well you know that you have to walk past the live Betta to get to the heaters... and when you tell him that, he says "I understand, go take care of your kids." and then 2 hours later he asks you what's the name of your new fish.

Happened to me today. :3

The New guy is a Black crown tail who shines light blue in the correct light, my friend named him Glam-Core.

Woot!!! AGREED!!! If only everyone could be that understanding of this... little... tiny... passion ...addiction...oh ok it's an EPIC Obsession that only grows with each breath we take...or our betta's take ...or every bubble nest  we view...this small thing that takes up like ALL our free time even if 9 times outta 10 it is merely a day dream of all the cool things we could do if we had more time and more energy to invest in this ....wonderful world of betta keeping! HAHA

Exactly^ Perfect description of betta obsession.

...when you have a dream that you have bettas again. Then wake up and realize you don't and are now planning to get one....

[parrotforlife]

umm interesting. I heard of this before. you knowthis poem is just a revision of the poem you know your addicted to parrots when....
i amm shocked to see this poem here with the words twisted to fit fish

[CH]

This is used all over the place. For example..."You know your Canadian when you ride polar bears to school/work and live in igloos".
It's more of a game then a poem too...
I'm shocked that you've never heard of this before...and that you didn't add anything.
