Since i am going to be getting a PK and HMPK VERY soon, i would love to see your pictures of your plakats to give me an idea of how awesome they are lol!
Share stories, pictures, videos,etc!
Cant wait to see yours and get mine!
Also, form your experiences, should i look for my PK or HMPK at Petsmart or Petco?
Howdy! I've never seen a plakat at Petco; I bought my little guy at Petsmart!
Plakats are my favorite. :) Mine is a dragon scale HMPK named Junior and he's in my avatar. He's absolutely wonderful, and super cute in my opinion! :)
Anyway, it says that plakats may be more aggressive than other betta breeds since they come from bettas that were bred for fighting. My little dude is pretty fiesty! I tried to share his 5 gallon with an African Dwarf Frog once, and he didn't like it one bit! He was very aggressive with the frog so I had to separate the two.
I am obsessed with PK's and HMPK's I have TONS!!! You could look at both Petsmart and Petco. I actually got one tonight from Petco, I'll post pics tomorrow. I have a pair in the spawn tank currently and I am so excited for the babies!!!! I'll post one of my new Thailand imports that I might name Levi :)
Here is Tarzan :)
You will love these little guys!!

Candice, i cant tell you how beautiful your boys are....just to pretty!
Looks like i will be trying petsmart, because i have actually seen some there. Cant wait to see the babies!!
Levi sounds cute!
Ok, well since PK's are so entergetic and aggressive, would one be ok in a 3 gal? Or would i have more success with a longer finned betta like a HM, in your opinion?

Thanks!
I think a 3 gallon for a PK sounds fine! Mine first lived in a one gallon, then I upgraded him to a 10 gallon all to himself! He currently lives in his 5 gallon, because my dorm has a restriction on aquarium size, and he's perfectly happy in there!
Larger space is just recommended for them since they have shorter fins that allow them to swim faster.
