| A couple pics of Cami and Ellie  I just can't get good pics of Cami, but anyway here's a few updates ones along with my cat Ellie.
Funny, when Ellie would look at Prissy she's swim away and hide.
Cami doesn't care, maybe she thinks Ellie's got some blood worms for her. lol 
You can see she's got a nice bubble nest going, silly girl.  Last edited by Lucy; February 18th, 2009 at 11:19 PM.

Oh, BTW, she is gorgeous! | I'm pretty sure she's got an ovapositor.
Her lights are still out. No one gets fed until I get enough coffee to get going. Geez, I'll double check.
She doesn't hold still enough to get a side shot, but I'll try |

| Beautiful color on your Betta girl.  I tend to agree with Karen on this one. I looked at the photo and wonder where did your female get such long finage? She does look like a He IMO.  Check that ovid spot again...  |

Time to change the name Cami to Carmen! lol..
My Precious was a Delta tail female with a long anal fin, but didnt have as long finage as yours. Also, her dorsal fin was not as long as Cami's either. hmmmm....  |

| Yep, Cami's a she 
Omg, how come every girl betta I get I expose her for all to see? lol
In this pic you can see some of her polka dots in her dorsal fin. Also what's noticeable is the red on her gills. When I first got her I thought it was ammonia poisoning, but it's her natural coloring.  |

| Can you get a pic of him with his ventral fins hanging down? This is usually a sure way to tell gender.. |

| well.... Cami is safe from being gender misunderstood hahaha..That looks like a egg spot to me as well.
In your new photo I can see more of the 'wedge' look of the bottom fin, and its much clearer than the other photos with the fins flowing which really made her look like a he. Her finage now looks like my Precious without the longer top fin.
She is a beautiful girlie..  I stand corrected lol... 
Here is a photo of my late Precious, who also has the long fins like Cami, just not the long dorsal fin which confused my Iding of Cami.
the link shows up as 'male' betta but some of the letters of 'female' for some reason are omitted. Having probs with coping URLs lately. hmmm
anyway you get the idea! lol http://www.fishlore.com/fishforum/me...male-betta.jpg Last edited by capekate; February 19th, 2009 at 09:37 AM.
