Ok so i was at work today and i've seen two bettas in particular that i've been watching for a while in there and though you know what stuff it i'll bring them home
So the newest additions are:
MrSnubbles, a very plain blue with black/grey mask coloured combtail boy who is the either the brother or spawn of my crowntail girls who are both slightly different shades of teal, TBH he is a poorly bred fish and was a breeding experiment from a guy i know who brought them into the shop one day to see if we were interested in a constant supply the females are both great and healthy with good strang colours and brilliant temperments but poor little snubbles has quite a short slightly mis shapen body and a short snubby snout hence his name i dont normally ever find the blue males attractive as i find them rather boring, i've only ever owned one blue before and he was my rescue called Brom when i got him he had no fins what so ever so again a sympathy vote His new home is Haibais old 3gallon bowl with heater under undergravel filter which i'm going to change for a sponge filter as the UG doesnt half make a racket in all honesty i got him for his tail type and his company on my study desk as he's quite the little character
The second boy is Valentine named due to his romantic pink, lavender and pastel blue colouring he caught my eye from the day we got our delivery along with another cellophane/ purple marble boy but he got sold i suspect he has a touch of finrot but i'm unsure as he was housed with giant danios in the shop and although i mostly watched him boss them about i dont know wether he's just been nipped a bit his eventual home will be in the 12gall divided once the girls are shifted to the 35litre and another divider is added tonight but should i add him to the divided tank yet? he's currently in a 1gall critter keeper merrily patrolling the small expance of water any ideas?
any way enough babbling and pics as soon as i can haha
