I have Betta fever

[aloaring]

well my boyfriend was very nice on the weekend and decided to buy me a fish so we went to the LFS where i know the sell good quality bettas sometines. Started looking through their tanks and saw quite a few Veiltails, which i wasn't that fussed about then right at the end i i saw a small red betta with the most amazing finnage, a pure red crowntail (crowntails are super rare in Britain) with a slight hint of purple on his scales. So we qucikly bought him for all of £4. So he now lives in the other half of a 3 gallon tank with Riddick and has been named Leon. Hellboy flares at him constantly fo being prettier than him! he he he

So next thing to get is some normal sized females for them !!

Just got to wait till christmas now when i get a digital camera and i can show him off to you all!!

P.s Sorry for this pointless post but had to tell someone of my find!! )

I can understand the excitement of having your first Crown tail.

The Crown tail is truly an awesome betta. A member of the BCS (Betta Club Singapore) Forum once mentioned that it reminds him of "a red Indian Chief ready for battle".

ohhhh good description d chia. i saw your website on another topic and thought it was an excellent source of information and i will now be carding my bettas so they are not flaring all the time. I was so glad to find my crowntail i was thinking i'd have to order one from abroad at quite a bit of expense. You guys are lucky in america and singapore you have soo much choice! But then again if i lived where you guys did i would have a houseful of bettas!!

ohhhh good description

Indeed it is.

This guy also said that the half-moon betta is like "an exotic beautiful spanish woman dancing with her fans". I find this analogy very appropriate and sexy.

Anyway, I'm glad you've got Betta Fever. Cheers.
