SHORT BODY! CUTE!!

And Synirr is not allowed to buy him.

 

[bettas4me]

That is a cute short body, Chrissi. It seems that we are seeing more and more short bodies on Aquabid and Ebay. Here is a short body halfmoon. I think he's from the same seller Synirr got hers from. I love his little short body and long fins!! The color and pattern on him are not bad either.

Is it me or does that betta seem to have a kink in the forebase of his tail?

Yeah. I noticed that too, but I still think he's cute. Looks like he has some issues with his scales as well. I would never purchase a fish like that unless I was going to keep him specifically as a pet.

 

[starrynightxxi]

it does look weird, but i think maybe it's just the infamous "betta wiggle". you know how they do that S curve dance when they are facing off with another male (or their reflection), or flirting with a girl?

 

[Loko17]

Yea, I dont know. Looks more like a fault to me. I'd get it as a pet, he's a looker. Too bad I'm first trying to find a tank and then get my bettas sister that they have at my LFS(they've had my females sister for over a month)

Im thinking that the guy is a OHM But the person decided to do surgery on him and turn him into a perfect 180 like they do surgerys on arrowanas

 

[Synirr]

bettas4me -- Yep, that's the seller I got mine from! There sure are a lot of these fish popping up lately, I think they are getting very popular in Thailand. Short-bodied flowerhorns are popular too.

What fish are you talking about, Wisperian? Being OHM isn't a fault, I don't see why anyone would care enough to trim the fins for that...

The pic of the last short body HM. I know OHM isnt a fault but the arrowana surgery thing came into my mind and I was told that they sometimes do cosmetic surgery on bettas too

 

[Synirr]

Well, they usually do it to increase caudal spread, not decrease it... if you're talking about how the rays on the edges of his fins are shorter, that actually is a slight fault for HMs.
