fish woes

[mercat]

So now I don't know if I can get the betta... they need sooo much care (it will be time consuming with all the tank changes, plus I need to get a bigger tank and a tank warmer b/c my roommate needs the room cold for health reasons), and you can't put fun stuff in their tanks because their fins would probably rip on them, and also I would need to find a babysitter for it FOR THE ENTIRE SUMMER. Someone who would be EXTREMELY responsible for it, and I feel bad because that would mean THEY would have to find a secondary babysitter if THEY go on vacation. So I guess I could always find someone whose parents never take them anywhere.

So...if you know anyone who might want to babysit a fish all next summer, let me know. I would really like to get a fish, and I need to figure it out by tomorrow! *le sigh*
