Finally got a halfway decent shot of my betta fish. The flash...



Finally got a halfway decent shot of my betta fish. The flash makes the iridescence go crazy, but hey, at least it’s in focus.  Unfortunately though, while he is doing great, the same can not be said for the frogs. Looks like the ones i got came infected with Chytrid fungus. It’s that same fungus that is causing a mass extinction of frogs all over the world, it’s incredibly deadly, hard to spot until it’s just about ready to kill them, and it seems that they are coming infected from the breeders. So while i was able to save one, at least so far by raising the temperature to insanely high temperatures for like 5 days, will need to see if the fungus comes back, I think i am giving up on the frogs. They are adorable, but are just too risky to get right now, since they will more than likely come infected. Instead, I may try and get some pygmy corydoras.
