Sucks what happened to the forum, but this gives me a chance to post pictures of my Bettas in their very own thread.

Here goes...

Drizzle - My first since taking a 3 year hiatus from fish.

Fawkes - I love that he looks like a flame. The fattest of my boys.

Gryffin - This is an older picture. His tail has developed all these rosettes at the ends now.

Lockheed - Much younger photo. He developed into a nice halfmoon and then decided to tear all his fins. Treating him now for possible fin rot

Bettas Continued

Nimbus - My morpher. He was a cello/pastel when I got him.

Now - Lots of red in the fins.

 

[Atom]

Last ones.

Sidney - Got him during the Olympics. Named after Sidney Crosby for scoring the golden goal.

Ponyo - Got him on my birthday.

Riel - Lives in my new planted eclipse tank.

Very nice collection & pix as well!! I especially like Lockheed, too bad about his fins, hope he recovers. Nimbus is really cool too

Thanks everyone

He is a copper, but I'm not sure if he is black copper. He always looks purple to me and sometimes green.

 

[Pamela]

All of your Bettas are lovely & great photos too

 

[L!$A]

Thanks everyone

He is a copper, but I'm not sure if he is black copper. He always looks purple to me and sometimes green.

I've been looking for a purple one, or one that looks purple-ish.. very nice find!!

One morning I woke up and Lockheed's tail was split in multiple parts. I thought he had blown his tail because it was getting pretty big and heavy for him.

I guess then he decided it wasn't worth it and decided on a makeover.

This is what he looks like right now after some salt baths. Still a bit raw.

He will never look the same, but I hope he doesn't get sick or become a chronic nipper. He looks so sad in the photo too.

 

[L!$A]

Awwe!! He does look sad .. he's still goregous though!

 

[BullDog]

Aww! That last pic of Lockheed he looks sad!
Great bettas! I must say Ponyo is my favourite

 

[JTang]

Wow they are all beautiful! Very Nice Collection! Where did you get them from?

I know. It gets me all sad too. I never did get a photo of him in all his glory, but he is a trooper.

Wow they are all beautiful! Very Nice Collection! Where did you get them from?

Thank you. They are from a combination of different stores.

Drizzle - PJ's Pets
Fawkes, Gryffin, Nimbus, Lockheed, Riel - Aquariums West
Ponyo - Isand Pets Unlimited
Sidney - Atison

Aquariums West IMO has the most variety to choose from if you go right when they get a shipment, which is quite often. They are on the smaller size because they are younger fish.

They are all beautiful. I've been wanting to post pic's of all 8 of my males but it's a lot of work to get pics of them all and resize/post lol

Yeah it is a pain, but beautiful fish deserve to be shown off. I would love to see your school. Photobucket automatically resizes my photos

Stunning fish! And I love the pic of the bottom tank. Is that your new Eclipse 3? Very well planted!

 

[crazy72]

Great collection. Thanks for posting the pics. And congrats on the new Eclipse, it's beautiful.

Yes it is I can easily be tempted to get another eclipse. I love it.

I hope the plants survive.
