BamBaboons · Tattooooooooooo

So i finally got my first tatt. ::lol:: its pretty big and I'm Very happy with it!

PICS!!

yay

and OW! but still YAY!

AGTrauger

Very nice work :-) You'll get more...they're as addicting as getting more and more bugs ;-)

BamBaboons

::lol:: I already know I'm getting 2 more. after that, who knows Razz

cacoseraph

what kind of fish is it?

koi?

ogershok

Very nice!!! Bettas are cool.

Celeste

As I was scrolling down, it kept getting more and more awesome...!

Very beautiful!

I have had a succession of Siamese Fighting Fish in a fishbowl in my kitchen window for the past 12 years... They have the coolest personalities, and are fearless, curious, and very interactive. They are one of the few fish that can turn their heads, which makes them seem that much more intelligent to me...

BamBaboons

yeah, its a giant traditional show plakat. i raised him from .25 inch to 3.5 inches. i got him from a breeder and friend in Florida. He was my most beloved fish.. R.I.P buddy. I got it in memory of him Smile

They are very intelligent but bowls aren't the best way to keep them. All mine are currently in 5 gallons or higher. Its just to hard for me to heat so many small containers during the winter, and it cuts tank maintenance down a ton.

Celeste

Awww... (sniff, sniff) That's so touching! Did he have a name? I just always called mine "Fishie" or "Fish-fish". (Hey, they always answered to it!) ;-)

How many do you have currently?

BamBaboons

His name was Dunbar

rite now i have...5 plendens and 5 wilds, getting more soon. Ill be breeding this summer.

i used to have like 15 at any given time during high school ::lol:: i was an addict.

Steven

Thought it a Killfish.

rosenkrieger

Nah, steven, Killies aren't that thick-bodied

BamBaboons

meh, here are some pics of the fish

Ill show it off at the next bbbq

Celeste

How *GORGEOUS*!!! Really healthy-looking, too!

BamBaboons

yeah he was awesome. he was to big to breed with any of the girls i had at the time, otherwise we would have Dunbar babies.

Awesome =]

I want to get my first python (Jungle carpet) slithering down my right arm eventually.

Bettas are SOOOOO much fun to breed. Their courtship and bubble nests are amazing.

I love the way the traditional fighters are built. I need some money ::lol:: i want to import some pairs but gah, trans shipping is killer.

ftorres

I heard there are some fighting rings for Betas, imported from the Siam over there in Bakersfield and they bet up to 1000 dollars in these events.

I have a friend who is into the top fighters and he breeds them too outside his house in Westminister, he gave a couple of them about a year ago, and I could not resist the impulse of fighting them with normal Betas.

Twisted Evil

Brit let me know when you are getting ready to import some, I might get a couple or more. Wink

BamBaboons

Oh, I don't fight. it's sorta illegal..blood sports and all..

I'll let you know when I import to breed though. I need to save some up. Maybe sell some hings here and there.

i voted yeah! but the only opinion that matters is yours. This is the T-shirt that you can not change. i saw some art work on a piece of native american pottery that i loved. so i free hand re-drew it and changed one or two things to make the meaning mine. it has been 18 years and i still love it. happy new tattoo to you!

Celeste

I have three tattoo concepts saved on my computer just waiting until the financial situation improves...

Sick tat! My first tat was going to be a fish to. A koi to be exact. But I passed for now because I know they are addicting. I could get them for free so I would be sleeve up in no time ::lol::.

BamBaboons
