For 2-3 cm or petstore size?

 

[Fishy friend2]

What would you consider "pet store size"?

 

[Man of fish]

Like the size you would see in an average pet store. Like petco.Well just how long does it takefor them to get about 2 cm. My petco sells cute little 2 cm baby bettas that have potential and I may get one but how old are they really?

 

[Fishy friend2]

I honestly don't know but my guess would be around 2 to 3 months

 

[Man of fish]

Cool. That auction on page 1 of the bettas I wanted says they are 3.5 months so I wonder how big they are.

 

[Fishy friend2]

Well, the breeders that you are buying from probably use many different and more nutritional foods, and proper housing while the breeders that Petco is buying from probably don't do those things, so the Betta that you want from AB will be bigger than a 3.5 month old Betta from petco

OK I see. Thanks

Shade is 3.5mos and almost as big as flare, and flare is about a year

 

[Fishy friend2]

Are you including the fins? Shade could just be bigger than normal. And is shade the one that you got of AB

at what age do bettas reach full size? On Average?

I am looking at their body size. Shade I got from AB, Flare I got from petsmart.

I'm curious.....would maybe switching Ice to the 10g and flare to the 3g for a little while maybe give ice time to heal? Maybe he will quit eating himself...

There's only one way to find out.

How?
