Hes very pretty! It's really hard taking pictures of fish, though I find the betta to be most beautiful model. Cinder loves getting his picture taken and will just puff himself out and hover at the top of his tank (he probably is waiting for food, in reality).

Prize, my young female, is almost impossible to get a clear, focused shot of. I found that using the pipette I used to feed her frozen foods with keeps her at least within a small area. She literally attacks the end of the pipette with full force, though. Once I swear she swam at it so hard and bit it that it almost fell out of my hand lol.

He looks a lot like my betya except mine has the exact opposite personality. He has never once flared. I've tried mirrors, putting him by other bettas.. nothing :P

My pursuit for a picture with his fins billowed out continues!

Shows off his stripes better:


I guess I kinda liked this one, even though it is partially obscured:



Getting there!

I noticed that he likes to strut around a lot, he doesn't stop and pose, he's constantly zipping about.

That's pretty awesome how Prize feeds!

Wow. Haha. I wonder sometimes if my fish is just made of pure rage. I'm currently sitting here and he's flaring at me just cause. He'll flare at his food.

I think I may have finally picked something.

I called him 'the fish' for the past three weeks but I'm thinking about naming him Snotface.

Not very flattering, but it is a name of a little girl in a movie that I have fond memories of and watched when I was little.

It also makes me laugh! So, he is now Snotface.

Drop Dead Fred. It's about imaginary friends. It's not exactly a kid's movie... more like teen. I'm surprised my mother let me watch it. XD

lol It sounds weird to say (bc of the unique name) but I LOVE Snotface!!

His colors are so interesting, I haven't seen that scheme before.

I LOVE Drop Dead Fred! Great movie! Hello Snotface! ;)
