yep, they're a fun, easy little tank (15gal) no fuss, no muss.
that used to be one of our hospital tanks, but it was EMPTY and we wanted to keep it cycled and i saw Picasso and had to have him. he's not like anything ive ever seen before.

Where did you find little picasso? Did you order him from a breeder?

Who is this neighbor you speak of?

I don't think it was from a breeder from the looks of it. Most breeders breed moscows and other pure strains like that. Though I must admit that it is a beautiful fish with really nice form/shape.

you should try and breed and sell the fry - hopefully they'll grow into similar looking fish!

I got Picasso, from a LFS, All About Fish, here in Long beach.

The "Neighbor", is a long funny story. Its basically my husband (hockeyref88 on here)....LOL.

the betta enablers around here were trying to convince him to get a betta and he kept resisting. then he asked "hypothetically" if he got one for his "neighbor" what would he need. turns out I was the "neighbor" to whom he referred.

well...and the rest is MTS history....6 bettas later, 11 aquariums later....

hmmmmm i don't know anything about breeding....

i had 2 females and 5 males. the little female died right away (maybe they chased her to death) and the other female is not looking so good.

the other day she had a little something hanging out her tummy and we thought well maybe....so i isolated her in case fry were coming...but nothing.
she's sooooo tiny, i can't imagine she could have babies.

but picasso has good genes for sure, the design on his tail is super unique.

hmmmmmm, something to think about.

If she gets 5 girls she will have fry out the ying yang! My kids had guppies growing up and we had so many babies it was unreal .. I used to take them and trade them in at the LFS for supplies...It was actually kind of fun! That boy would be very worth breeding....

OMG, you gals are too funny....
Rick's gonna kill you for putting more ideas in my head

i think i have 4-5 males right now. can't i just add 4-5 more females? then i could put Picasso in a little divider with a few gals and let him go to town?

oh yeah, Karen we've had these for a couple of months...just could never take pics, cuz they wiggle too fast.

Oh my gosh, he is so cute! What a tail! And the music you put in it is awesome, lol.

Officially the damage today from the MTS enablers on FL total 2 more tanks I must have: Kate's fault I will have to get another betta tank for a Cambodian, and Minx's fault I will have to get a guppy tank.

My boyfriend is going to have me locked up for sure!

Do you only keep him with guppies, or is there other stuff in there with them too? *plots*

Edit: Wow a whole page's worth of posts since I asked that ^^ I'm slow today.
