Well here are some updated photographs, I wouldn't say he looks better than before, but certainly he looks a bit different. Not quite sure what is going on with his colour

here he was a month ago:

and now he's much more silvery.

I named him Fred btw. I'll try and get one of him flaring for a direct comparison later.

Whoa! That that is a MAJOR color shift! Steel grey/blue to copper? Something doesn't sound right. Unless maybe he is carrying marble genes. A lot of times marbles will change their "patch formation".
 
He was too quick so I couldn't get a close up, certainly much more aggressive towards the mirror than he was when I took the last photos, so I guess he must be doing pretty well.

Well it is a dramatic change, I think when I took the photos last time I used the flash which did distort the colours a bit from what you see without the flash. He seems happy enough though! :thumbs: Looking at the previous photo even the finnage has changed a bit, it's like he's a different fish, but I assure you he is not, my first and so far only betta. :) ( I have more plans though... :fun: )

This picture is a really nice picture.
 
wow he looks like a totatlly diff. fish, but his fins are different too now, did he get a bout of fin rot along the way?
 
Nope, he did get bullied in the community tank a bit, but then I set him up with his own tank, but he's been completely trouble free!
