growing up so fast


so tony is growing up so fast. today i came home from school to find that he had made a bubble nest. in case you are unaware, he has made it for potential eggs to be safe and sound in. we have already given him "the talk" (told him that there are lots of other fish in the sea) but didn't realize he would take this to heart so soon. of course, though he may not yet realize it, he will likely never meet a female betta in his life. i feel strangely protective as a parent to withhold this part of life from our tony, but we feel it is for his good (and the female fish's good since he would probably eat her afterwards). and so he sits under his bubble nest, wanting and waiting for those eggs. should we tell him?
