Today, while at the pet store picking up a water test kit for the betta I got yesterday, I saw a double-headed one in a cup! I couldnt believe it! I asked the cashier about it and he didn't know anything about it. I couldn't resist; I had to buy it. Is this a known mutation? I'll be posting pictures soon!!!!
I can't believe he made it through the screening process that most pet stores go through when they get their betta shipment in and put them in those cups lol. They come in tiny baggies usually. O___O I gotta see this guy lol. Does he eat with both heads I wonder?
That's awesome! Especially that he eats with both heads. I guess it's a Siamese Twin Siamese Fighting Fish. XD Do you consider him one betta or two? If I found one I would think of him as two... and name them "This n' That". Man, I want my own double headed betta now lol.
Doubtful, if it has 2 heads the two heads have been there its entire life, much like bettas in a divided tank will eventually get used to eachother and stop flaring cause they know they'll never get past that divider or it doesnt even see the other betta as a seperate male. This betta probably thinks all bettas have 2 heads. One head is dominantly in control of the body movement (or he'd be spazzing as each head tried to go different ways), while they both share a stomach (like siamese humans).
this betta must be very smart (if it even exists) and i wonder is it is any competition with other males. also can you imagine breeding this male with a female . (I DO NOT RECOMMEND IT!!!) actually i recommend just trying to give it a good life. its enough that it has to struggle on its own and is probably still learning its own body. What tail type is it??
I dont believe this either. you buy a double headed betta and it so happens that you dont have a camera? No cell phone? No webcam? cmon. Give us a picture and prove me wrong.
Yeah, it all seems like a thought out coincidence.
