I would genuinely rather interact with any person who has a betta in a vase than a single “influencer” like this, who will shame people with their whole chest while actively promoting sorority tanks, because in my experience, the person with the vase is more likely to be open to actually learning and growing, and people like this are more likely to either never improve their care or actually get worse over time.

"Never house Betta fish together. They are called 'siamese fighting fish' for a reason," is a sentence which carries a reductive and scientifically... nonsense sentiment, while feeling racist on two levels somehow...?

Like yeah maybe for you with two males in a divided one-gallon fishbowl but I'm different

#this post is a little facetious so remain calm #betta sorority #bettablr #i have four in a ten gallon

Betta sororities are stupid and I don't respect the opinion that they aren't.

#fishblr #betta fish #fuck betta sororities

[betta-butch]

I’ve gotten to the point where unless someone comes to me & asks about them, I really don’t discuss betta sororities/give out husbandry pointers much. I remember giving ✨ uninvited advice ✨ one time and the person having a HORRIFIC response to that, that literally brought my depression back with an absolute vengeance for a solid week, genuinely you would have thought I was an evil human convicted of unimaginable crimes... I don’t know if any of you remember that (not sorority stuff, I think it was about a pleco?) but it was awful and so even if I have things to say I simply block people and 🤐. I no longer trust people online to be sensible and treat other people like human beings lol

#saw someone on fishblr post their 10 gallon sorority + male betta and nope nope nope just blocking and acting like I did not see that shit

[whitefangz]

apparently i forgot to post about her. this is my new girl tentatively named starburst :) i like her mismatched eyes

#fish #bettas #my pets #starburst #they had her in a sorority at the lfs and she wa s being bullied nonstop

It's amazing how the marketing ploy that is betta sororities has become so accepted by otherwise reasonable people.

This is a picture of one of my bettas, Charlie, before I got her. She's a rescue from a sorority, and as you can see, she was in pretty rough shape. She was constantly harassed by the other bettas, as was clear by her damaged fins and just how visibly stressed she looked.

Keeping bettas in groups gives no benefit to the fish, it's only done by assholes who think aesthetic is more important than the basic rights of their animals. Absolute best case scenario is that your fish survive, until either they fight to the death or a disease knocks them out because their immune system is weakened by constant stress.

Betta splendens is a solitary fish, full stop. Keeping them in groups is selfish, and you are a bad fish owner if you choose to do so.

#betta fish #its just capitalism and people wanting to make a quick buck off you #and you'll let your fish suffer for your own selfishness #I'm also suspicious that it's somewhat impacted by misogyny but I can't really put that into words properly right now. #fuck sororities

Does Teagan Likes Fish

he does! although he probably wouldn't have thought of getting one on his own, the original tegan left behind a betta fish named dmitri when he died; lucky has a stack of books about how to take care of the little guy now!

#guy who has never drawn fish in my life- #well im gonna be doing it now! #oc: tegan ''lucky'' holloway #ty for the ask! #originally the first tegan named the fish Anastasia because he didn't really know how to tell the difference between fish at first sjdfjk #lucky thinks thats funny so he considers anastasia to be dmitri's middle name #did u know a group of lady bettas is called a sorority #ive been reading sm about them sdjf

Petco I am disappointed but not surprised ✌️

[leakyleaky]

all I ever used reddit for is fish stuff which means every time I look at it I stress myself out looking at the terrible care everyone is taking care of their fish

#me :) #“im pretty sure this store sold me a male betta. why is that a problem you ask? oh. well i have a sorority in a 10 gallon. which is fine #of course.“ ”help what is wrong with jy betta. no i don't have a heater or a filter why do you ask“

[betta-beta]

Honestly, I think telling people about the ability of female bettas to change sex in the absence of males is turning out to be the best method to dissuade people from setting up sororities, and I also think it’s a more approachable way to explain why some of them just suddenly turn into the Thunderdome.

I redid the fifteen gallon for my two females. Nasuada is out and about, and Fella is settling into her leafy bed!

Also: snail. That is all.

#dopamine is stored in the fish #just my life #i think i want to get a female koi betta #at the very least i think i want a female. the petsmart nearby has had some pretty koi bettas lately #but then again there was this GORGEOUS blue and white male betta that Was Not Doing Well about a week ago #and if hes still there when i go back sunday i’ll get him and see if he bounces back #i wanted to try setting up a sorority but one search on here dissuaded me from that idea #my leopard gecko died this week so i was thinking of turning his tank into a sorority aquarium #but i think i’ll just hold off and use it for an aquascaping project and then add some fish that live better together #but thats for another time

Penelope the Platypus lived and died in the 1940s-1950s and I was not able to find digitized photos of her. (If anyone has any, please send them to me.) A generic image of a platypus was used to represent her.

Propaganda under the cut.

Praying Mantis:

They murder their mates after fucking, then eat their heads. Slay. Girlboss. Morally gray. You understand.

Anglerfish:

Tapeworm:

this bitch lives inside of people for long periods of time, living off of them. aint that cool

Blobfish:

she got held by a generic white man but still stays strong, she deserves the world, Plus she lives at crushing depths in the sea and that's great too (the photo is what she looks like in her natural habitat)

Licherally just look at them. don’t tell me they wouldn’t destroy worlds on a whim

Betta:

I think that male bettas are pretty well known for being little murder gremlins at this point, but the females really deserve the title of morally ambiguous girlboss. Unlike the males, you can put multiple female bettas in a tank together and they usually won’t fight to the death immediately. And people usually assume that that means their tank is peaceful now. No, you put multiple female bettas in a tank and they are all just biding their time, ready to start the murderfest whenever they feel they’re strong enough. But they’re also really sweet to humans and if you set up the tank correctly and pay close enough attention to it then bettas sororities can work, so I think they deserve the title of morally ambiguous girlboss

Teddy:

Honestly she's beautiful, she loves belly rubs, she is plotting something. She's hbic. She's going to take over the world one day. She's sneaky but also has a love of pink chairs. She's an icon

White Gladys:

Miss Orca was harmed by boats and then plotted revenge by teaching other orcas how to attack boats and they all went on the sink yatchs <3

Penelope:

girl faked a pregnancy for extra food and ESCAPED THE PLATYPUS ENCLOSURE when the jig was up, NEVER TO BE SEEN AGAIN. girlboss behavior if i've ever seen it.

Fira:

You could say she is... Morally.. GREY (I'm sorry)

Mashed Potato:

She is sometimes so so sweet and honestly she's an absolute icon really but also she eats my curtains and that's kind of a dick move

So in case some of you don't know this, hi I'm dys and I'm a sucker for stupid cute fish.

I love small fish and of course I love bettas, my favorite type of betta fish is a Koi halfmoon betta fish but enough with that.

Lemme talk about JJK

So I have seen a lot of people talking about how the fish in this scene:

are meant to represent how Geto is sick or slowly losing hope while Gojo is thriving. As some people know Betta fish have very sensitive fins, which is why they can be a pain in the ass to take care of, their fins can tear easily if you don't have a proper tank for them. One of the ways to tell if your betta fish is healthy is by how their fins look. They can go from this, to this if they live in the proper environment.

Now, notice something about this betta? Yeah, is a healthy grown betta with fins that look exactly like the ones betta Geto has.

The betta used to represent Geto is a different type of betta from the one Gojo is, in fact the betta used for Geto has fins that are naturally like that, and look like they might have a tear when they don't. This is a Crowntail Betta, it is called like this because the fins give the illusion of the spikes on a crown.

While Gojo resembles the text book definition of a Veiltail Betta but could also be a Halfmoon betta

The funny thing is that obviously these two betta fish are male, even in the anime, betta fish are more flashy and have bigger fins than their female counterpart. Female bettas tend to have shorter fins, are smaller and tend to not be as flashy as male bettas.

So yeah, the betta representing Geto is not sick, it is just a different type of betta. Geto's betta is emitting black smoke while Gojo's betta is emitting a white smoke, which is just a representation of the paths that they took.

On another note, as many people know, Bettas are very aggressive and can be a bit too moody, to the point that they end up hurting themselves sometimes. Male bettas do not like to be around other male Bettas, they end up fighting one another and eventually one of them winds up dead if you keep them in the same tank. The same can happen with a lot of different fish that the betta sees as a threat.

Which is also a representation of Geto and Gojo. The bettas I think are meant to represent how in the end, they weren't going to be able to survive being in the same tank, and one of them had to leave, in this case Geto. Meaning that the two were never going to fully be able to co-exist with one another because of their own nature. So eventually, Gojo and Geto were going to drift apart for one reason or another.

ANYWAYS!

Fun fact: Veiltail betta and halfmoon bettas are harder to take care of and are a lot more delicate because their fins can be very sensitive and easily get caught on things or tear from textures. it fits a princess like Gojo, poor babygirl.

Fun fact 2: Female bettas can be very aggressive as well but can form sororities with other female bettas so eventually you could have a tank full of female bettas as long as you don't introduce a male. Go lesbians go.

Sad fact 3: most bettas are extremely misunderstood. They can be trained and are very smart. They also need big tanks not small ones and hate the cold. They also can die from eating too much!

Hello there!! I used to own betta for years and even had a sorority tank (female bettas)

Bettas avoiding any food is kindof worrying since they're gluttons, but if he seems to be going at the bloodworms then he's probably picky aksjdjdjd

People like to give their fish a balance of pellets and bloodworms and even frozen shrimp,I would just keep an eye on his behavior but I think you're doing awesome!

oh, good! Thank you, I'll keep an eye on that!!
