Good news! I scared my mom and sister into buying a tank. :) They're setting it up right now :) The tank is 10 gallons ^o^ Thanks for the help! It has a filter, oxygen thing for bacteria growth, a plant, rocks, and water conditioner.
On the sad side, when i went to the pet shop today i see what you were saying about betas. they were keeping them in absolutely tiny bags that had about 1 cm of dirty bluish water on the bottom and the broken spines of the fish (and sometimes part of its back)were sticking up out of the water. They looked ill (even to the untrained eye) and it looked like someone had mauled their spines with a razor. It was *horrible* :(
::sigh:: well, anyway, thanks for your help. My fish will be happier now at least.
