Betta Photos

Please use this topic to post your betta photos. I'll leave it stickied so it appears at the top of the posts. Let's see different types of bettas out there.

You can also show off your pics in the betta picture gallery.

Thanks,
Mike

-----

Please use your own photos, and not material from the internet.

Please post your photos as attachments, rather than links.

While your compliments on the photos are really appreciated, text-only posts will be removed after a while to keep the gallery pictures-only. If there is a discussion you do not want to loose, please start it again in a separate thread.

Thanks,
Armadillo

Re: Betta Photos

My most spoiled boy, Alexander leads the lot.

Then of course, there is Nate the little one named after our Natalie.

Then the Marty Jr. because I could not do without a Marty in my life.

JT has been hard to get a good picture of but this is the best one so far.

Here is the latest one of Damon since he is in his new permanent home and is exploring all over the place.

Jett:

Cujo and Romeo are having bad tail days, so those are pics when they were having better ones. That's probably the best pic I have gotten of Jett, he is almost impossible to photograph because he is so busy and swims very fast. Plus he recently decided that he hates the camera

Re: Betta Photos

Wow, some people have many beautiful bettas! I have only one, but I am completely in love with him. He is very shy and now actually seems to wait for me to approach the tank and baby him... and look at me all day.... i think the love is mutual
Here are a few pics of Pepe, that's his name. Pepe is a Petsmart rescued betta, when I went it was like a betta butchers place, so many dying in those little containers... made me almost cry.
So here he is! I think I posted these pics somewhere else in the forum, but hey... can't help showing him off.

Re: Betta Photos

Here are some pics of Jett that I took tonight. I sometimes feel like Cujo and Romeo take up all my attention because they are always sick and needy. If you get a guy like Jett it is true that bettas are very easy to care for, I'm lucky to have him. So here is Jett, and he is ticked at me for having my finger in his tank to get his attention. Hrm, maybe it's because he's so GRUMPY that I don't talk about him as much! :P Nah... And I didn't even realize his fins had gotten so much longer, wow he's a big boy now! lol

Re: Betta Photos

Here's mine. Of course, impossible to show her true colour on camera, seen as she's a betta and all. She has that old pink colour that I really love. I guess it's kind of salmon, with purple shades in the right light. I love that the end of her fins are marked with that black line. Really pretty.

Re: Betta Photos

Here are all my little ones who would hold even half still for pictures today, except for Nate who is suffering from finrot at the moment. He is getting better fast but was too embarrassed for pictures today.
No one here has seen most of these babies as they have not been shown here yet I do not think. I was trying to think of names for the last one and then Javier at Miami Aquariums sent me two in that last box and I had to come up with two names instead. So here are Qwin (orange doubletail crowntail), Triton (lavender/red combtail), Ariel (white/cellophane halfmoon), Io (white opaque doubletail halfmoon) and Marty Jr. (blue/white/red halfmoon). AJ was not in the mood to have anything to do with any camera of any sort today. I shall try again soon.
Enjoy...

Triton looks exactly like my male betta. I had always thought that mine was a crowntail?

OK, here's my older female betta (well, I've had her 1 month longer).

And here's my new female betta. It's really tricky to see details of her tail as she's still so tiny. She had pink fins when I bought here, and she's turning blue on me.

She's got blue eyes, but again, I don't think you can tell on the pictures.
