The Martin Fighting Fish



Well....you live and learn.......


The girls really wanted new pets. We decided on fish when we got to the store. We thought that the cute little fish would be great company for eachother....well....little did we know they were Siamese Fighting Fish! Ahhhhh!


We got home, put the fish in the tank and within minutes they were taking bites out of each other very violently! It was crazy! They were like piranhas! As interesting as it was to watch two beautiful fish fighting, we had to split them up into two tanks. We jumped online and realized what kind of fish we had bought.... Yes, it's sad to say that male Siamese Fighting Fish will fight to the death....


It was an interesting day and we all learned so much!


Here are the newest little Martin's.....Rainbowy & Flowery (happily named by Tiff and Ivy)
