He must be a very happy fish to have moved from a tiny cup all the way up to a four gallon heated tank with plants and filtration. At least we hope he is. Well, we actually think we know that he is; his color was much brighter right after the final move and he is very active in his new tank. T has read and learned a lot about beta fish recently, so if anyone has questions feel free to ask. But do know that if you plan to get a fish, do not think that it will be happy and healthy (or even okay for very long) in a little cup or vase. No matter what the guy at the pet store told you. We could tell right away that Badgley wasn't doing well in the little half gallon tank that the pet store had recommended (and which was actually marketed as a "complete beta tank"). Bottom line: do your own, extensive, research before buying a pet because the average pet shop employee doesn't really know what they're talking about.
