Well my sister has a betta that she has had for over 2 years, and omg is he HUGE! He's a good 4 1/2 - 5 inches long easily, with his body being about 2 or so! And get this... this is the part I think is crazy, he's probably about 3/4 of an inch tall! He's a bigggggg boy. :nod: I mean, I didn't realize how huge he was until we sat him next to my mom's betta, and he's like twice the size! And boy is he amazing when he flares!! :wub: Anyways, I took out my webcam and thought I'd mess around trying to get a pic of him, below is the result of my efforts :). It's not the greatest, and really I don't think does him justice, but you get the idea!

Wow, I didn't know Bettas can grow that big! How old is he? He must be fed pretty well. :D

Hehe I didn't know Bettas could get that big either, he's just a whale!! And it's funny because she just feeds him what it says on the food, and my mom does the same thing - but her Betta is half the size! Maybe he'll grow.. lol... My sister's is about 2 years old so I suppose that's part of it. He has survived some crazy stuff - she goes to college in Eastern Washington and brings him home for the summer the past couple years, and we live in Western Washington. He doesn't ever seem even fazed by the trip in the car over! He's an amazing fish, and really gorgeous. I'm jealous of her :sly: lol... It's ok, I'll just pretend my flaring long finned Danio is a big Betta :D.
