Betta Bras

I wish their was such a thing, can you imagine fastening a bra around a bettas little neck. :kira:

I have 3 males that are in desperate need of some assistance. They have such excessive finnage that it's a chore just to swim. One male who has the problem is the guy in my avatar...you should see him, he'll swim from side to side of his tank with a shimmy and when he reaches his destination his fins just pull him down and he's nose up, he's always laying them out cross the gravel or resting them on a plant ,my solid red male has the same problem so he usually rests in his plants all day and the other is a blue/red male with such full heavy finnage that he's exhausted after a couple rounds in his tank

poor guys...the high price of being beautiful I guess

A few of my boys would benefit from those...although since they are for men we should call them something like "Manser" or the "Bro" (ideas from "Seinfeld)

There is no way that your boys would let you put a "bra" on them. I definitely agree with dix - name it something manly. They'd probably even prefer it being called a corset than a BRA! :kira: My sister's betta has the longest veiltail I've ever seen... when he stops swimming the same thing happens. Poor guy looks like he has a fascination with the top of his bowl.

lmao@ the "bro" :kira: that episode was hilarious :kira: I guess a "bra" would be a little to fem for such manly boys ,maybe it could be something more like a "fin sling"

As I'm sitting here typing I glanced at my lavender crown who was recently moved to my desk...staring at me with his fins propped up on a silk "flower"


I even caught the third male I mentioned sleeping straight up today ,he was using his tail as an anchor he looked exactly how you described julie ...fascinated with the top of his tank


It's not easy being beautiful

I think most of our boys KNOW they're pretty...

I think I really should have called Simon "Narcisis". I have these flat marbles in the bottom of all of the betta tanks. He is the only one that will still stare at his reflection in the marble. A few times a day I see Simon almost standing on his head gazing as his own reflection...not flaring, or getting worked up, just admiring himself.

I have a few vain boys too ,maybe it's because we gush all over them and tell them how goy-geous they are all the time
