Your pics need resizing so we can see them, load them via photobucket or image shack.

Haha, it is very obvious dragon scaling. But there are some confusing photos of bettas.. maybe dragon, maybe not?? LOL.

Thanks guys, yea Bruno has loads of dragon scaling! I'm not sure what I can do about the photos, I've already uploaded them using imageshack Forestpisces.

I can see them now and he's a beauty with a wonderful tank

Very well done

Bruno! LOL. He is gorgeous, really lovely. I think that is a really sweet name

Beautiful fish and nice tank! I think Bruno is a great name too. Welcome to the forum. Just be careful - the "betta bug" is very contagious... ; )

Bad news people!

I went away for a few days camping (entrusted a friend to feed Bruno) and got a text saying he was dead

He'd somehow managed to jam himself behind the internal filter and his tail fins had got sucked into it...

Wasn't pleasant to come back from a holiday and put my pet in the bin

Lesson learned though, I'm going to get some thin netting and put it around the intake, something like tights I guess. Anyone have any experience with this?

Hopefully going to my lfs today to look for a replacement, if not I'll get another off the seller I got Bruno from.

I'm so sorry to hear about Bruno,

R.I.P little man

As long as you use a new pair of tights then they should be fine to put over the filter intake.
