Well, since I've had Bacchus, he's definitely regained some of his color and is very happy, but I haven't seen him flare at anything. So last night I got a mirror and tried to get a picture, which didn't work out, and got him to flare a few times. Well that must have got the hormones going, because when I came to feed him this morning, I saw this! With the divider on the way, now I don't know if I want a girl or a boy for the other side...

Aww look, it's a bubble mess! Maybe he needed the self-reassurance that he is still tough and masculine, even after that "other" big, tough betta in the mirror scared him.

I have a boy and a girl in a divided tank, and for the first month there was so much twitterpation, flaring, flirting, bubble-blowing, eyes-making, and other tomfoolery and habberdash that I started to think of separating them, but they're finally starting to calm down and get used to one another; now I think they rather enjoy the company.

Bubble nests are sooooooooooo COOL!

NICE job!! I haven't seen a bubble nest in a LONG time. None of my boys were well enough to be in the mood for the past few months.

Great that he's started bubble nesting. It's so fun to watch them build the nest.
