Question about Shiney's colour.

[Dart]

I haven't been able to find any pics of a betta that looks like my guy Shiney, i was just wondering what anyone would classify him as colour wise, i know he's a veil

And contrary to popular beleif this is the same fish in all of these pics.
Sorry for teh amount of pictures but he just never looks the same in any two pictures.

Hi Dart,

Shiney looks like a Cambodian. Cambodians are bi-coloured bettas with a pink / salmon / white body with coloured fins.

Are they always that metalic? He's really more of greeny/purple body with red fins

Iridescence (i.e. metalic or shiny appearance of the scales) do appear on some bettas. This iridescence do make some bettas look somewhat greenish.
