Today my box o' fishies showed up. 
The extended green rosetail pair (and for those of you who haven't seen them I'll post the breeder's pics):
and my Platinum plakat male:
I loooove them. Very satisfied.
The green male is awesome in person, as is the plakat - extremely shiny. 
The green girl is so incredibly tiny, she's SO CUTE.
And theeeeennnn...... this breeder was doing "Betta Santa" for "Fishmas" and sent me THREE other bettas!! I sent her a wishlist (actually more of a send me whatever you want if you want to list), and she came through. I'm not quite sure what they are going to turn out as, since they're pretty pale. Gorgeous though. I think one of the females goes with my plakat (though she's long-finned and he carries LF), she's got a pale butterfly pattern with yellow and silver. Then I got a pair of yellow? orange? cellophane? (haha) deltas (or maybe even HM!). I thought they were cellophanes when I took them out of the box, but now the female has turned light orange and the male is a pale yellow, so we'll see. 
Everyone has settled in pretty well. I'm just glad I had enough tanks.
They've all eaten whiteworms and a few ate pellets. 
The only one who doesn't seem quite content yet is the mystery-colored male. He's having some swimbladder issues but who knows what kind of treatment they had in the mail.
Sorry so long, I'm just very excited and had to share! I'll get pics in a few days once they're happy and showing their true colors.

(As I'm sure a lot of breeders do!) And I will be breeding the greens.
