Tail type?

[sjones]

My new guy, Patchy, is not a crown tail as I had originally thought, is he a comb-tail or what is his ray type? What is his coloring? He has extended tips on his rays...And is super cute. Just love him.

Wow! He's really pretty! I don't know what tail type that is, but it's really interesting- both the shape and how see-through and iridescent it is.

The betta in your profile is really interesting too, a rose tail cellophane? I love the see-through tail type!

Magnificent fish. His tail is beautiful. And congratulations, you got a good angle. Very good pic.

Oh! Yeah, he may be a Rosetail! I don't think cellophane, though, because those seem to be pastel colored and very see-through. His tail and fins are pretty transparent but tinted brown, as you can see, rather than totally clear with iridescence. His cup was labeled as a Delta Tail, but I was questioning that because his tail looks much larger than the pictures I've seen of Delta Tails. Almost Halfmoon but not quite. Then I went on Google and saw Super Deltas. But now that you say Rosetail, I looked them up and found them on AquariumWiki, and I think he's definitely a Rosetail. Cool!
