Betta Fish: I lost my beautiful 3 year old boy William, today.

I have owned William for 1 year, but we presume from size and behaviour he was 2-2,1/2 when we got him last year. His previous owners used him as a fighting and breeding fish so he had become terrified of other fish and could only live with his golden vampire pleco who he loved so much and played, slept, and ate with. William had the best year of his life with us, being provided with a safe friend, lovely spacious 30L tank lots of hids, some homemade clay ornaments and plants, even a special cone he loved to rest his tail in.
