Last week I moved my bettas (Bud and Coors) out of their typical betta "containers", and into actual tanks. Coors moved into his very own 6 gal tank complete with sand substrate and sandstone, and Bud moved into my 20 gal for a while, and this weekend moved into my 29 gal ram tank. They are both doing extremely well, and are acting just like normal, but extra beautiful, fish. And Bud compliments the ram colours so well (they're blue rams).
Btw, they're both male VTs. I don't know colours very well, so I'll just describe em. Coors is a rust colour (stunning, IMO), and Bud is turqouise with red fins (I never thought he was pretty until I put him in a large tank and he started showing his colour).

So, I'm going to nix the betta breeding idea (who needs more when I ahve these two gorgeous guys?), and I'm going to go with dwarf gouramis for the 10 gal :) I just feel sooo content with Bud and Coors, I love em to bits :)

Sorry about the rambling...I swear I'll give you pictures so this post isn't completly worthless ;)
 
that's awsome! I'm glad that's working out for your guys. I just moved 4 of my males to a split 10 gallon and i couldn't be happier.
Does Bud flare at the other fish at all?

Hope to see some pics real soon!
 
Bud flares at my 9" common pleco, but never does anything about it...can't blame him, that's one tough pleco. He fights back and could swallow bud in one bite. He gets along well with all the others, though. He's overshadowing my ram, though, since he's big and flowy and gorgeous. It's wonderful.

I took the pictures, but my computers being dumb :p I'll post em later
 
Finally I got the pics on my computer. Not great pics, but good enough I guess.
here's Bud-

Thank you :) I love coors, he's my little dude :wub: (well, all my fish are my little dudes I guess). I'd never seen his colour in a betta before, so I had to have him. He's enjoying his new tank so much :)
