Oh cool - I will have a look - as they supplied my gorgeous little yellow guy - I didn't realise they were on ebay now. I couldn't find their website again. :good:

Hi, thank you for your response - unfortunately I am in the UK :angry: They sounds lovely otherwise! Never mind I will keep looking round.

Hello, I was wondering if anyone on here had any little guys for sale? Unfortunately one of my guys died a few days ago. I'm not sure what was wrong - he did come from a bad fish shop and I had him for quite a while. So now I am left with just my yellow guy, and would really like another to fill...

No pictures yet I'm afraid as I'm not very good with a camera, but my husband has promised to get me some this weekend that I can post. :rolleyes:

Thank you - I can't stop watching him. A bubble nest means that they are happy - so congratulations on yours. I'm not a 100% sure on breeding, but I believe that it is a sign that they are happy and ready to breed. I am sure someone else would be able to tell you more on that though if you were...

I will get pictures soon I promise, but this morning I went in and he has built me a nice big bubble nest. So he must be settling in. :wub:

Thank you so much for the little yellow guy. He's gorgeous. :blush: I'm so happy. He arrived this morning, and I got him settled straight into his tank. Where he is now swimming around, flaring at everything, and has even eaten a few Bio Gold pellets. I will post pictures once he has had chance...

Oh cool thank you - just out of interest which ones did you get? As I don't want to get the half medium if it's too small for them - or the large if it takes up all their tank - if that makes sense? Sorry - so many questions.

Can anyone suggest where I could get my boys some coconut shells? Our local pet shops seem to have stopped doing them? Or could I literally buy a real coconut and then put the shell in? Yours all look so cute and I know my boys are due a tank change. Thank you in advance.

She is very pretty :blush:

Thank you. He is a gorgeous fish - his colours are amazing. He looks fantastic when he flares too. Is there anything I need to treat him with - or is it old damage? To be honest though I wouldn't know what type of female to breed him with - and I certainly wouldn't find one in the shops near me...

He is a gorgeous red, and looks very happy.

Sorry it has taken so long to get the pictures up, but following on here are some pics of my little boy, that might help a bit more with ID.

I have been back and the other little one is just a badly torn VT - as I feared mine was when I got him. Unfortunately I'm not sure that the other one can be saved, and I don't have another tank. I tried talking to them in the shop but they didn't want to know and just looked at me like I was...

I know they really don't care about them at all, which is why I really try and avoid them like the plague. It's sad as there is a little black one like mine still there too. :no: More pics to follow of my little man later.

Thank you he is stunning. He makes me laugh as next to my VT he looks stumpy. As promised I will get more pics of him on later. He was being sold as a ragged VT so I actually got him for £3.00. :good:

Hi, to find a CT would be amazing, especially as the fish shops near me really don't specialise in Bettas, or bother with them to much. I will get another picture tonight and post it which may help you ID it more. He doesn't appear to have finrot now so fingers crossed he will be ok. He's very...

Thank you everyone - I'm very excited if he is a CTPK, but whatever he is beautiful and I love him. The PK could explain why he does look a little stumpy compared to everyone else CT's - which is what I thought he may be originally. He is very cute whatever.

Hi, he is gorgeous the pictures really do not do him justice, his colours are beautiful :blush: . I do agree that his fins do not look bitten - which is what is confusing me. I got him from a local fish shop - where I don't usually go as they aren't very good to their fish - but I needed...

Whatever he is I think he is beautiful and am so pleased I went and saw him hiding that day. :wub:

Further to my topic earlier, I have managed to get a better picture. Can anyone help me identify my new fish? And is it a VT who has been badly bitten? If so, what course of treatment would you recommend. Thanks in advance for your help.

Thank you - the thing is although you can't tell in this picture - he doesn't look chewed, and he has flared at me already and the top of his back fin combs round - if that makes sense - he resembles nothing like my other VT's, but his finnage is still quite short, but looks perfectly formed. He...

I went into a local fish shop yesterday - which I tend to avoid as they do not look after their fish, after looking around I decided to look at the fighters - who are placed with all sorts of nippy fish, and at the back of one of the tanks I saw this guy. He looked so sad, and as the lighting...

Hello, due to really stupid mistake on my behalf I had to move my rather large boy into a vase - temporary until I can get something sorted for him today, it isn't a small vase but not really big enough for what I like to keep my fish in. Anyway I notice he is swimming away really happily...

Thank you - your replies have put my mind at rest. All my girls are eating and seem to be getting along - they appear to all have little areas of their own. I really love them already-they really are pretty. I was also told by the same shop that all females are dull - well mine certainly aren't...

:lol: That is funny, but hey I'm female and I still need help with females! So you have no chance! They did come from my local shop who are generally very good - so fingers crossed then. One of them was a bit battered I noticed when I got her, but she seems to have settled in ok. They have lots...

After being bitten by this Betta bug and having a large empty tank I have decided to set up a sorrity (sorry spelling), I did a lot of research on here and off I went. The tank has now been running for a while with lots of plants and hidey holes. I have just rung around a few fish shops looking...

Hi, thank you for asking. I did indeed get my dream boy, he is a yellow V-Tail, and is gorgeous. :wub: I didn't get a baby Biorb in the end though as I got such a good deal on a little Arc Tank, which is around 5 gallons. He has deep purple stones on the bottom to set him off. He is absolutely...

I've given him 100% today - and soaked all his rocks etc in boiling water to try and help get rid of some of the bacteria. Is that ok? Usually the filtered tanks get 20 - 30% a couple of times a week - but without a filter I thought he should have 100% once a week, as well as the small changes...

Thank you. I am going to swap his tank with my little guy in the kitchen so that I can clean him out much easier and keep him really, really spakling clean. He does have a heater so he is nice and warm. I just hope I can help him - I'm so upset.

One of my little fellas has got fin rot, he looks awful I'm so worried about him. I have read that fin rot is due to stress - I clean them out regulary every few days, and 100% once a week so it can't be bad water conditions, but I have noticed he hates his new filter. My other two are fine with...

Thank you. I'm a very proud mum so I will get some posted soon. :wub:

He looks lovely. Very pretty.

I am so excited and so in love. I've got my little yellow boy - Hiro. After ringing round I found him at a fish shop an hours drive away. All the local shops said that they had never seen a yellow fighter and that I would be lucky to find one as they are so rare. Then I rang this one shop and...

Oh thank you for that, I will take a look. It looks very neat.

Thank you everyone for all your replies. I think it may take a while to find him anyway so the tank will be running for a while. I will post pictures for you as soon as possible. I'm so excited - I don't care what tail he has as long as he's yellow and mine :wub:
