Betta Fish and the Fruit Fly Guy

Here is a story about how, a fish in a cup became a passion.

Once upon a time, in a quaint coastal village, lived a
curious young boy named Liam. Liam had a heart full of wonder and a spirit that
yearned for adventure. One day, as he was wandering along the beach, he
stumbled upon an old, weathered cup half-buried in the sand. But what caught
his attention wasn't the cup itself, but rather what was inside it – a
shimmering fish, trapped and gasping for breath.

Liam's heart went out to the fish, and he quickly scooped up
the cup, carefully cradling it in his hands. He rushed to the edge of the
water, gently pouring the fish back into the sea. To his amazement, the fish
didn't swim away. Instead, it lingered near the shore, as if expressing
gratitude.

As days turned into weeks, Liam returned to the shore daily
to visit his newfound fish friend. He named the fish Finley, and a unique bond
formed between them. Liam shared his thoughts, dreams, and even his fears with
Finley, and in return, Finley seemed to listen with an understanding glint in
his eye.

One evening, a storm brewed on the horizon, dark clouds
gathering and waves crashing violently against the shore. Liam worried about
Finley's safety in the turbulent waters. Determined to protect his friend, he
crafted a makeshift shelter using pieces of driftwood and netting. With a
determined heart, he placed the cup inside the shelter, hoping Finley would
find refuge there.

The storm raged on through the night, and Liam's heart was
heavy with concern. But as dawn broke and the skies cleared, he rushed to the
shore, fearing the worst. To his relief and joy, there was Finley, safe and
sound inside the makeshift shelter, the cup still protecting him.

From that moment on, Liam and Finley's bond grew even
stronger. The villagers marveled at their extraordinary friendship and the tale
of the fish in the cup spread far and wide. Liam's compassion and determination
touched everyone who heard the story, reminding them of the importance of
caring for all living creatures.

And so, in that small coastal village, a boy named Liam
taught the world that even the most unlikely friendships could bloom from acts
of kindness, and that a single act of saving a fish in a cup could create
ripples of love and empathy that would last a lifetime.

Nah, this is what a certain AI program said when I asked it "write a story about a boy finding a fish in a cup".

Jerry - Founder of Betta Trading Company.

In 2019, Jerry went looking for a pet and while looking at
the beautiful, inquisitive fish in a less than adequate cup, Jerry bought a few
Bettas from a local pet store. After researching how to take care of them,
Jerry became very passionate about Bettas and wondered if he could breed them.
He tried his hand at breeding them and to his amazement a bubble nest formed
and there were babies. Jerry’s home soon became a Betta fish sanctuary.

Fruit Fly’s – needing food for his new hobby Jerry looked at
ways to efficiently and organically feed his fish and found Fruit Flies were a
great source of live food for Bettas. He quickly became adept to creating his
own Fruit Fly cultures.

After some time, Jerry decided to try and sell some of his
Bettas on eBay, and found there were a lot of Betta enthusiasts out there. He
also noticed a demand for food and began selling his own Fruit Fly cultures as
well. Each Fruit Fly culture is reviewed and approved by Jerry. “I wouldn’t
sell something that I wouldn’t buy myself” – Jerry says.

In 2023, Jerry and his Partner founded Betta Trading Company
bringing together a place where he could share his passion with others. Betta
Trading Company isn’t only about Bettas, the idea is to provide homes that suit
the aquatic and invertebrate pets.

We aim to supply a happy and higher quality of Betta which
are all kept in 2 + gallon temporary tanks until they are ready to go to their
forever homes.
