Those are stress stripes ^^
I can't really see her tail very well, but if you can get a clear pic of her flaring you can get better answers.

bambi: i couldnt realy tell her finnage eather shes to small and transparent.. thise 2 i showed are the best 2 i could get =S ill try and get a better one once she is in better health.

poof: i must agree. tho around here walmart almost never has a female. if they do its like a single one was brought in on accedent with the males both the girls they had last night were about the size of a grain of rixe.. maby 2 grains.. but they can be pretty but are always pretty small

The girl in my avatar is from walmart, and I have gotten 4 others all others were males from there. My walmart almost always has females in stock. Hoping to get some sorority girls from there.

lol well my camera camera is broke.. its my phones camera -.- but at least i darkened tht one up so you can see the fins lmaoo.. im hoping to buy a camera soon =p then we can see bettr =]

also here there r never females except at petco.. n petco here.. yea always belly up =[ iv evn seen some with itch n missing fins n stuff =[ but ya not many walmart ones here. 2 walmarts in my lil town one dnt sell bettas othr mainly sells mails unless the place they get them from sent a little female by accedent.. most theyv ever had at one time in females was 4.. with like 50 males lol

lol dang aint been in thiis forum in like 3 months or so n u can still make me crack up momma :p u aint changed none XP

update on the little gal... shes in a tiny vace [like 1/4g] so i can actualy find her. i tryed putting her in a 1g tank with no filter and she just sat at the top floating... i think the big size so soon for such a small gal freaked her out.. so shes in a vase with lucky bamboo gravel[of course] and a shotglass to hide in. seems pretty happy always swimmin around. still got her stripes. shes eating fine.. gave her 2 tiny pellets this morning of hikari gold. then 2 later at like 8pm [like 10+ hrs aftr] shes little bloated now.. soo i think ill do 2 then 1 and see how it goes.. maby one and one. she does however seem to be getting a tad bit more color. seems like her tails getting more red.. but body is still pretty whiteish clear with stress stripes.. but she seems happy :D theres the update on her for those of you who care [maybe like one of you lol]

lol, it has been a while!!!! and i like to make people laugh so i try.... lol...im glad she's doing better, sorry about the bloating, my Mister is constipated poor guy...idk what to do about it.... or he's bloated? i don't really know.... and the shot glass idea was great, i think I'm going to go to the dollar store now and buy some plastic colored ones!!! oh and i hope ALL her color comes back that'd be great huh?

lol i did it with all my bettas. my family collect shot glasses so i had many dif kinds n colors lmao. but i used a lil white one so it was a hide for her. lol the jar was to small to give her any fake plants so i ended up puting in a the bamboo so she can wim between and around it. which she does, and she seems to love it... i do hope her colors all come. im hoping to let her eather go into the new comunity tank n take my male out[his fins are gettin bitten or torn idk wich]. or get her her own comunity tank/sorority cominity depends on if she pulls thru mite go buy a few other females.. but atm shes way to small to join it as is. cuz shes to small :( lol
 
#23 ·
i have a small small small teeny tiny female in my sorority...she's smart and follows the biggest without it knowing so the others stay away lol
 
#24 ·
oooh wow thats amazing.. debating on letting my girl in when shes a tad bigger. as my little comunity is in a 10g n has some sword tails and platties.. i dont think hed notice she was a female betta till shes bigger cuz shes smaller then all the other fish in there.. lol
 
#28 ·
hmm well i think i might do it in a week or so. ima treat the comunity tank with ick drop thingys and some antifungal stuff. just to be safe befor i add her =]
