Did You Know?

That The Term MG Or Mustard Gas Is Copyrighted. So All Breeders/Traders Who Sell Their Bettas As Musrad Gas Are Committing Copyright Infringement. A Chap Got The Copyright A Few Years Back And Has Been Battling To Stop People Using His Term "Mustard-Gas". A Young Lady Who Got Given A Pair Of His Bettas Bred Them And Called Them "Salamander".

also, proper mustard gas fish are green and yellow. not to burst your bubble or anything. I think they're all lovely. the purple/yellows are my favorite. still, your boy is a pretty one

the only fish that are technically MGs are fish that are bred directly from the guy's lines (i forget his name now...) any out crossing officially makes the fish not a mustard gas. Seems to me, that the line's doomed to overbreeding and technical extinction... but that's just my thought, there's probably more in that than i know. still, all this linebreeding in bettas, I'm surprised the fish aren't as bad off as purebred dogs or horses...

Jude Als bred the original, i use the term loosely to describe its colours..still the patterns of colours are the same and the yellow is usually always in the same place.

Cheers

Danny

p.s. dont think i'll be breaking copyright...google for mustard gas and you'll see how many people use it!
