Show-off Your Bettas Here!

[paperdog9]

I'll see if I can go get a few pictures...

 

[paperdog9]

here are a few pics of him. I got a few algea spots on the tank, so sorry bout that. I couldnt get the focus off the log so they are a bit blurry.

nice betta! just bring your camera back a bit to let it focus on the fish which is in the foreground. in those pics your camera is too close i believe..

 

[paperdog9]

OK thanks. I'm not very good with cameras, so I guess I learned something new today!

Hey kids! I finally have a betta! Isn't he lovely?

 

[Lotus]

He's a cutie, lauraf!

Beautiful black dragon halfmoon, Laura! Congrats!

 

[Newman]

amazing! a black/silver dragon! Where did you get him?
was he called a copper dragon by the seller, or what did the seller call his breed?

 

[lauraf]

I actually found him at my independent lfs amongst a bunch of also-stunning blue/red halfmoons. The owner just called him a dragon, remarking, 'this bluish one's kinda interesting.' I can find out more next time I'm in.
He's got quite a blue sheen to him - is he actually considered 'black/silver'?

 

[Newman]

so that turquoise color isnt just reflection from something? so he's blue now ._.
yes he looks like a black dragon...

put a mirror next to him, get him excited and take some pics

 

[lauraf]

Okey dokey

 

[bassbonediva]

Actually, looking at him again...he looks like a black lace dragon.

 

[lauraf]

Well, here's some more pics. Newman, he's definitely not turquoise by any means - his body is really pale silver, and fins are almost navy/black . . . .

 

[bassbonediva]

Given the new pics, I'm sticking with my second assessment that he's a black lace dragon. Gorgeous boy.

 

[Newman]

yes i mean light blue color, not tur...
lol w/e he is he's awesome.

 

[lauraf]

Well, the most important thing is that so far he is fine with the ADFs . . . .
And Hannah thinks he's gorgeous too.

Hahaha that last pic says "uhh... wut? I wasn't going to eat him!"

Actually, I think she's saying: "Mumma, teh fisheh is verry pretteh, but I'm still teh most bootifil. Yes?"

Bagheera is gorgeous too
