My Fish Aquarium

You have a point, @Neverthesame. Speaking of which, we had 3 power failures this morning (if my memory does not fail me). Thankfully, it went on quite soon after it went out, so cold was not an issue. I was so afraid for them, that I would lose them all to the cold! What a relief it was when the power came on and stayed on this last time. I don't have any other method of heating my apartment, except the heaters, so I was very concerned!

Roger seemed very angry last night. He seemed to be trying to get through the glass and go back to the livingroom and to the 10 gallon tank! He kept bashing himself against the glass of his bowl in that direction, as if he could see right through the wall and see where the tank was! I guess a fish's sense of direction is superb, unlike mine, because I can get lost too easily and used to get panic attacks if I was in my car and got lost. Just hinking about it give me anxiety a bit.

Anyway, prayers are in order for peace of mind and heart for Roger, my betta, for those of you who pray. He is calmer today, but I do fear that he may have injured himself a bit yesterday when he kept ramming himself against the glass of his bowl!

I was wondering if it's possible that there is a reflection there?

Betta fish are like roosters, if they can see another male they will go nuts. Being a fish, they aren't smart enough to understand what a reflection is.

Now, you could be right, but I would check to see if there is a reflection being hidden by the refraction of the waters surface.
 
Well, since my fish are doing so well, and I have cabin fever, I got a friend from church to help me get to Walmart, so I could buy some more fish. I bought 3 of them actually. A cory catfish and 2 more red barb tetras. I love my fish! I named the catfish Opal and the others I have yet to figure out names for, however they do like to swim in a school, so I thought I just might call the whole bunch of them "School."
