Betta with marble gene getting more red

Hi all,

I just wanted to post a few new pictures of my boy Chino. I recently started feeding him Aqueon Pro Betta Pellets and the red on his fins has been getting brighter. Now his torso is starting to get red on it too, previously his torso was solid white. I'm pretty excited to see how his color continues to change because I've read about the marble gene. I'll post photo updates over the next few weeks.

 

That is a nice looking Betta.

 

Thank you. I got him at a locally owned place in Walla Walla, Washington.

Below are two Photos from today. Definitely more red on his torso than a few days ago

 

More red and a tiny bit of blue or maybe purple?! Coming in on his tail.

what is that place

 

Oh I’d love to but I’m not very knowledgeable about it. I was just lucky enough to purchase a betta with that gene and get to see it in action. I’m sure there are lots of people on here that would be happy to answer questions about it though.
