HI Taz
your betta boy is gorgeous!  I love his tail markings...
Hi Barbrella
your little girl is a sweetie pie! I just love the females... they have such adorable faces.
Taz.. I know how the bettas can be mixed up. Remember when I thought that Precious was a male, since she has those long fins? But she has the egg spot and I know that she is a female.
Here is an updated photo of Precious that I am using in my siggy now.

Thanks Armadillo! I think she's pretty sweet too.

I think they call that pattern butterfly

Actually, I'm pretty sure she's a Cambodian - white/light body with coloured fins. Whatever she is, she's a hoot!
Capkate, Precious has amazing finnage for a female! No wonder there was gender confusion.  |

Here she is today. You can see the new growth! |
Wow! Holly is gorgeous! Do her eyes really reflect her surroundings as they appear to be doing? I mean, do they generally look like they do in the photo? Amazing! |

CapeK i remember! I was open minded on this one as when so tiny looked female AND had a tiny white spot that grew into part of his finnage!!! He is a true joy, like an excited puppy when i enter his room!!

I didn't realize until you said it, but yes - her eyes are always like that. I should have called her Lucy, the "Girl with Kaleidoscope Eyes".  |

Hmm... I may think about getting a Betta pair, once the guppies have gone. But that's a long time to wait.

I'm not wishing them away. I want them to stay alive for as long as they can.
Justs saying that would be my next step.

So my b/f has now caught the betta bug! We were in the petstore a couple days before Christmas getting dog food and he stopped at the bettas and made me come see this boy. I said ya, he's nice, but I have 3 and that's enough for me.
Well he talked about this betta for a couple days and so I said fine, let's go back and if he's there we'll get him. We have a couple empty tanks anyway...
So meet Ra, our little sun god.  I guess I'll have to add him to my sig since he's in the same room as my 3 stinkers. |

Oh my goodness! Of course you had to bring him home. I can't believe you found such a beauty at a petstore!
He's gorgeous. |

What a perfect name! He is spectacular, and I'm amazed he was still there when you went back a couple of days later. |
