I was looking at that boy a few days ago congrats, he is gonna be a stunner for sure - look at all the ray branching already!

 

[LilyRose Tank]

thanks, I hope we are luckier with him
He seems to be a copper mix which i think are stunning
the video shows him as a much more colurful betta, than the photo.
the parents were, female: blue marbled i think and the father was a bicolour red/copper white
the mating that produced him and the 4 sisters I have purchased is viewable here

Just been on the site and looked at your girls...very nice indeed. I love the pale coloured ones.

When do you get them?

 

[LilyRose Tank]

tomorrow hopefully. i have also got a new boy coming, so i am so excited, as he can guarentee their age as 3 months old, as he bred them from a blue female and a copper/cream male...their breeding is available to see online

 

[Flute]

I've just bought a little emerald green hm male from the very same guy, you wont be disappointed LilyRose Betta came well packaged and he's in perfect condition, so it's obvious that he really takes care of them and keeps them in great condition. Good luck with your new male

 

[LilyRose Tank]

awww you got him!!! bloomin thief!!!! hahahahahahahaha

he is beautiful. congratulations. can i see pics please..they grow so much since photos were originally taken. xx
He does take good care of them, he wa who I had Rusty from, which is why neither of us can figure out whet went wrong.
tomorrow, I shall be recieving 4 females and a male from him,...excited!!!!

 

[Flute]

Hahaha, you wanted him too? XD I had to wait for nearly a week before I managed to save up for him, and I was convinced that he would be gone by the time I had the money XD I'll take some pics of him as soon as he comes out to the front of the tank. He's quite a shy boy bless him Can't for the life of me think of a name for him yet though >.<

You'll have to post loads of pics when they arrive! Your boy looks like he's going to be a real stunner And those little females were lovely looking too- you beat me to them Really looking forward to seeing your sorority once you've got all the girls in there

 

[LilyRose Tank]

Hi Flute...sorry, well it seems f3 and f4 turned out to be boys,, o he has had to send f1 ,f2, a green marble girl and one other he cant describe...secretly hoing for a creamy one i saw . but i doubt it. so i already started my sorority on an impluse buy today, check my oither thread out....my orority begins...

emerald boy...hmmm.name.hmmm............
what about Devotion.....you saved for a week, thats devotion!
...Minty. ( sorry but I always think of names to go with colour...sad i know)

 

[Flute]

Wow, you wouldn't have thought it- they looked quite female to me, although I'm still no good at guessing tail types and genders unless it's very, very obvious :3 The green marble girl sounds like she's going to be beautiful Make sure you take loads of pics for us to admire I had a look at your other thread and I love your dark coloured and red girls- looks like you're going to have a gorgeous looking sorority ^^

Haha, no where near as sad as my names- mine are all named after gods of some sort >.< Cheesy to the max I just can't find one that I like or that suits him. I really wanted to call him Titan because of how big his finnage is likely to get, but it just doesn't suit him at all. He's such a sweet little boy. Unlike Tyr >.< I knew I named him after a god of war for a reason!

 

[dipsydoodlenoodle]

Aw shame the "girls" turned out to be males; however the other girls will be nice (if they are all different colours you'll be able to identify them better and "personalise" them). Take pics when you get them .

I think devotion is a good name, or Dev? (shortened version). Emerald?

My fish names are....Paddy (since they 'apparently' come from paddy fields....)

My girls are: Itsy, Bitsy, Teeny, Weeny (I was going for Itsty bitsy teeny weeny yellow polka dot bakini), then I got a purple cambodian with a blue splodge on her tail which looked like an ink drop, so called her Dot (continuing with my theme); then I got a red cambodian and called her Ruby; I didn't fancy calling a fish bakini when it came to it lol.

 

[LilyRose Tank]

well slight mix up
betta box arrived....no females, just a boy i didnt choose....see my other thread for details.
will be getting 4 different girls now, as he has to give me some from his import and 2 from his home
so we shall see
