Betta Resistance Is Futile?

[Shelster]

Hey RCA, no that's the length of his/her fins, he was taken into this store as he was sold as a she but was a male - I think those fins caused some confusion!

Every time I go in he's still there always active and has some tank mates too that he doesn't bother.

I have just phoned now and reserved him he's going to be my kitchen buddy

This is the place RCA, it's where I bought Vader from http/totally-tropical.co.uk/

I'd absolutely love to buy him as I think he is gorgeous, however, he's $50 and I also don't have my tank ready for a Betta yet

I pic up my boy tomorrow

Yay way to go Shelster 

Don't forget we insist on lots of

I don't want to jack a thread, but here is a pic of my new betta

I will take a better pic tomorrow of him because his colors have changed a lot. He is no linker black which actually saddens me it's why I picked him out, the black and blue scales mixed with red tail and fins looked awesome.

He's lovely supra, name?

 

[Supraman]

Well I named it after dreamer after hearing about what she's been going through, also because when I brought him home I wasn't sure if he'd make it but he pulled through

You are not jacking a thread, this is where we discuss Bettas we are tempted to buy, and sometimes do, so no problem you posted your picture here.  He is a Crowntail, what was he in with when you bought him as something looks like it has had a bite out of his tail?  Look forward to another picture of him

RCA- oh haha ok yea I wasnt sure if thats what this thread was about or not. and he wasnt in the bowl with anything else but I have noticed his tail does look damaged.these past few days he has really started to perk up so I think when I got him he was sick and or dying, the poor little guy. sadly I didnt do my research before buying him and didnt know their diets were kind of specific so I have been feeding him cichlid pellets that are crushed up he seems to enjoy it. and I will get more pics as soon as the natural lighting is better, we have been getting alot of rain in the past 3 days so its bretty muggy and dark so pics dont turn out the best.

Yes it is fine, however if you want to go into a lot of detail about one of the fish that is when you start a New Topic and can link it in here, so the thread does not become about one fish in particular yet we can follow the Bettas progress
 
The damage to his tail maybe that he has chewed it if it was not there when you got him.  You will find information in this topic.
 
I guess you are not in the UK as we are in a heat wave, can you action this so we know where you are, cheers.

I came so close to buying a Betta today, unfortunately I didn't have my phone with me so I didn't take any pics, however I'll try to describe him as best as I can. He was a Doubke tail, with a blue body and orange tips on his fins. He was seriously the nicest Betta I have ever seen, which is saying quite a lot considering all the gorgeous Betta's I've seen on here
I really hope they'll have a similar one in when my tank is ready....Which should hopefully be in about a months time.
Can't wait to get one, and, despite not wanting a Betta at first, my efforts were futile, no other fish quite measures up to a Betta now

sorry I took alot of pics, so I hope its ok that I just link my thread...the pics are obviously on the last page
