Anywhere from 2 months to 2 years.
Says the store I bought my beta food at, anyhow.
Yeah 2 months... if you kill it! Yugi lived for about three years, maybe longer.
I really want to get something else for that corner (where the empty tank is) so it's not lonely. I want something with a relatively short lifespan and preferably non-mammal. No birds either. Don't know what yet. Chances are I'll just buy another beta.
So anyway, yeah, Yugi's in the freezer until I find a permanent resting spot for the body. I'm fighting temptation to bread him and eat him, thus inheriting his soul and all of his powers.
