Was at the lfs this weekend to get food for my corys and some stress coat. I promised myself i wouldn't even so much as LOOK at the bettas, but of course, i did. and i saw the most beautiful one i've seen yet in the stores. usually they carry the reds or the aquas with red or the blues or the blues with red, or the purple and blues. well this one is white bodies with white fins but close to the body onthe fins is a mauve and dark purple coloring that spread onto the top and down part way on the sides of the body. he was soooo pretty that i stood there for 10 minutes deciding whether to get him or not. i had a dual betta hex at home that was empty but good to go, as i had just used it earlier in the week for putting molly fry in initially while i caught all of them. well, i had transferred the fry and still had the hex. so i decided to take this beautiful betta home and put him in the hex for a day or two until i could get a new one gallon. i had him at home for about two hours when i left to go back out and get that one gallon. he is now happily swimming about in it. i put his tank next to my blue/purple betta's tank (indigo) and the two will swim about happily and occassionally stop to flare at each other. and the two tanks look so good next to each other on my book shelf. i'm even thinking of moving dante's tank (a red) near them so they can all flare at each other.
i was jsut so happy about my beautiful new betta, had to share. hope to have some pictures soon!!!!!!!!
