new betta

[lvlyldyuk]

went to a new fish shop and found him, could not resist,lol

 

[ravekiss]

The picture is not clear but from what I can see of his fins, he looks like a crowntail betta. He's nice!

 

[leasbettas]

he is a crowntail lad by the looks of things very nice indeed

 

[lvlyldyuk]

[lvlyldyuk]

[lvlyldyuk]

cheers cant resist a betta when i find one i like, i have to buy it,lol
husband hates it though

 

[BettaMomma]

I could be wrong, but it might be a combtail.

 

[FalconStorm]

What is the difference between crowntail and combtail? IS there a difference?

 

[Bettabelieveit]

How I think about it is, combs have a touch of fringe in their fins looking more like a comb, than a crown.

 

[LifeBear]

He's a crowntail.

The difference is how far out the fringies extend. A combtail has shorter fringies, like a spiderweb drawn by a 3rd grader. (Sorry, that's the only image I can think of.)

If he is considered a crown, he must not be pure. His crowns are very short, and he has a super delta spread. Probably a mix with HM, or Super Delta.

Still very pretty. Is he Steel blue, with red tips?

hiya

no not steel blue.

his head and top of body are a whitey pink, rest of body and main fin colour is more of a lavender blue with red tips, some tips are white.

i thought he was certainly a crowntail crossed with something, when i was able to look at the tail type pinned thread on here, i thought he may have some hm or delta in him as well, purely because when he flares it is almost a perfect semi circle, and his tail fin and top fin overlap.

 

[ManyFISH4Me]

I have a Guy that has fins like yours. He has Royal blue, and red fins.
His body is Royal Purple. His tail is almost HM too. His name is Rooster.

hiya

have named him kingtip due to him being a crowntail cross.
