My 3 new boys

Purple blue is Aries, who is just a baby. But he is full of spunk. I can't put my hands near in top of the water surface without him jumping out at me...he latched onto my finger too.
Green/blue is newbie he looks more green in light
Yellow is Sebastian, who won't let me get a good pix.

Well the green/blue guy died over night. I just went to check on the betta and he was at the bottom of the tank.

Beautiful fish. What size tanks are they in?

Sorry to hear about the green/blue one, his color was beautiful.

It happens, especially with Betta. I got him at Petcetera, who have a 30 day return policy. PU is a week now.

Awwww...sorry to hear about your betta. That is the risk that we run when we try to rescue little bettas from their sad tiny cups at the LFS. A lot of times they are just not healthy enough to last, even if we do try to give them a better life. You did a good thing by adopting him though and I hope that you will replace him with another betta in need of a good home.

On a happier note, Sebastian is gorgeous! Even though he wouldn't let you get a good pic, I can tell he is a beautiful fish. Sky is really pretty too. Congrats on your new fishies!

So these are three different betta's from the three you just got? Sorry to hear that he died. That happens sometimes. I've had two die within a week of bringing them home, and it looks like brain isn't going to last too much longer. Just too sick when you get them. Nothing you did beleive me.

Thanks all. I got a replacement today already. My second choice was still there. Same idea as the one who died but bluish/pinkish fins. Will get pixs when he isn't so nervous.
Yes these are my 3 new guys. I wanted to find some CT betta... I checked out the crown tail locally, not very pretty. There fins were too short, not like some crown tails you see. They were at Walmart and all the fish were sick, every single one. This Walmart is a new store so the fish department isn't great ever.

They are beautiful and I do love Sebastian's coloring. I have always thought I would love a gold betta. Who am I kidding I would like to have them ALL?
