Any Breeder Reccommendations?

[consp]

I mentioned in the newbie board that I have finally managed to cut down to only one tank but...

Looking at all the beautifal pics of Bettas I'm desperate to get one of my old tanks from the garage and give one a new home. Gah! Look at what you've made me do!

I've kept Betta's before but the ones I've brought have all been ones from my LFS which, tbh, aren't the prettiest pic of the bunch.

So...

Can anybody reccommend a breeder that supplies to the UK, preferably one that has a gallery of their stock online.


I can't believe after registering for under 24hrs I'm convinced I need another tank. BAH!

Thanks for all of the replies. Some fab reccommendations

I'm aiming for breeders in the UK as it is far less stressful for the fish. I've seen how batches from abroad arrive... stressed out and the likes... Higher risk of them being DOA.

Thanks again

Id recommend KG bettas and the best betta
Both have been really helpful
I was after a copper/gold crowntail and the best betta is getting me one in the next shipment.
There is also a shipment dur on November 4th from the best betta

Whats the diffrence from getting a fish online or from the LFS?

LFS generally sells lower quality, unhealthy fish, who are generally only veiltails, occasionally a crowntail.

online you can order different finnage, color variations, etc, from quality breeders who will sell you healthy fish more often than at a LFS.

What Bre_B said

Plus all the LFS near me import their fighters from abroad because they're cheaper... you don't get much of a choice after some die in transit and the rest are stressed out making them get poorly and have to be put in quarintine.
