First Ever Betta

[SecretlyaZombie]

I bought my first ever betta online and he arrived today, his name's Radzinsky, ^^
He's looking quite pale and has a stripe across his body, I think I read these are stress stripes? I was going to wait till he had settled in a bit but I'm desperate to post photos of him!
He's on his own in a 10 gallon tank.

He's swimming back and forth in the back of the tank, hopefully he'll become more confident!

Wow! Gorgeous! Can't wait to get my own! Where did you get him from? I'm on the lookout for good places in the UK.

Wow he is a stunner. By any chance are you an Everton football fan (long shot i know), they had a player called Radzinski I'm a fan lol.

As for Betta's try on eBay. I was looking the other day and you can get some wonderfull specimens, both commercially bred and wild caught specimens (which have such appeal IMO)

thank you, sorry to be boring but.. more photos! He's getting brighter and since i've turned the filter strength down, (it was a little too strong), a little he's been coming out to the front of the tank more,

EDIT
... a few hours later
