Sorry about your snail:(

When I was little, maybe 7 or 8, my mom's bf had a tank with an Oscar fish and an algae eater fish.

Well, one day they decided to get one of those little aquatic frogs for the tank. My sister and I were soooo excited, just instantly in love, he was so incredibly adorable!

A day or two later, Freddy goes missing. Mom and bf say, "Oh well, guess he got eaten." Sis and I are heartbroken.

Day or two after that, there goes Oscar swimming around with two teeny webbed feet hanging out of his mouth. Sis and I are horrified.

They figured he was hanging out in the top of the tank, scared for his life (justifiably so, as it turned out!), but he couldn't stay there forever, poor thing:(

Love your story, glad she survived her escapade:)

Just curious, what did you name her? My friend had a gorgeous bright blue betta, couldn't think of a name. I suggested Neptune, and she went with it, lol.

My first betta I named Caleb, just cause I liked the name, liked the history of it, figured I didn't have a good chance of naming a kid that some day if I had one. Then my sister had a baby boy...named him Caleb:) People teased her, "Oh did you name him after your sister's fish??" Lol...
