Ok, found a really bad one - im terrible at taking pictures of the whole tank, ive cut half of it out of the picture!!! lol And i left the flash on so the lighting is a bit odd... )

Its 10 Gallon (Dont worry, they're all being moved soon! lol) and im waiting on the arrival of some more plants! Oh, and i hate the gravel!!! Gives me a headache just looking at all those colours...lol

Anyway here we go, this is pretty much how Ruby's tank is at the moment

Yes, you HAVE to get one!! They're lovely fish! So pretty, and Ruby is the least aggressive in my tank - she's adorable!!! Was it seeing Ruby that made your mind up?! lol

You'll have to post some pictures as soon as you get one!!!

They are great fish! But are you sure SHE isnt a HE?... It has a right angle kink in its dorsal fin which signifies it is a male, whilst the females just have a straight dorsal fin.

Either way, it is very pretty

Im fairly sure shes a she... Ive read that you go by the tail fin - whether the tips are rounded or pointy! Which according to that Ruby is infact a She! lol Your way could be right though, i just go by what i read! But it doesn't really matter as im not planning on breeding RTBS's...lol

"she" is adorable though... My betta hates her!lol

Jess

P.s. Just found the website i got that from! http/www.craigcentral.com/shark.asp Ruby Has a pale belly... Great pic huh? lol
