    poorly female betta

    possibly someone who blames their mistake because they "weren't made aware" shouldn't consider themselves an expert, act as one and present information as one. an expert with experience would have KNOWN that would have happened. this informaton is come upon after years of fish involvement. this...

    poorly female betta

    Before people run off and never use melafix because of what bettamomma said, I just want to say melafix is a WONDERFUL thing for my 2 male bettas and girls. It brought back their finnage beautifully, they perked up almost instantly when they were rescued and I put it in. I've used it since then...

    How to tell male plakat from female

    thank you joep! ok, i'm going to guess she is a girl. i can see what looks like an ovipositer and she has very short stubby ventrals. she definately does flare quite impressively. we'll assume she's a girl but keep the divider handy :D
