Okay, a couple of you know I have a pair of betta imbellis- well, they've always been a bit drab since I've got them in February. My Mum always nags me that my boy is "mean" (only as much as a female splendens...) and ugly and eel-like
Only a bit...
She refers to him as "The Tongue". why the weird nickname? His territory\hideout is this opera-singing fish thing. He always peeks out like a tongue
Today I put a mirror up next to the aquarium to see if his lame colors would intensify. Did they? Did they eva! Soo check out mah sexy fish.
"Who dis sexy beast? Get away from mah chick!"
This is his girl. She's cute, shy and little. She was showing crazy breeding stripes when he was defending his territory from rivals.
Look at his amazing tail! C'mon. You're jealous!
His gills where going SO far out I could easily see the insides!
"RAWR"
he was rubbing his body all over the glass to try make the intruder go away!
When I came back downstairs and saw his coloration, his flare, his pose... I flipped, did a huge happy dance and started jumping up and down! FinallY all those live foods have paid off! I yelled for my mum and she was shocked. "WHOA! What fish is THAT?! What happened to him?!"
"I warned you once! Dis MAH terf, thug!"
The gill coverings are awesome !
Thanks for looking thru my photo album- you can tell I was overexcited. Him and his gurl are going to be one of the inhabitants in my 16g paludarium (see sig for link!) and they are going to look FAB.
Thanks for looking at my gorgeous sexy boy's picture album
