I got a new purple male VT today!
When I went to Petsmart today I was thinking I'd walk out with a plakat... but I couldn't leave this guy behind.
When I picked up his cup to show my boyfriend it was because I loved his color. I haven't seen many lavender/purple bettas before. Upon further inspection I noticed his pectoral fins were very long.
His fins are a tad clamped, but I'm sure that will get better after he's in some warm clean water.
I've seen elephant ear bettas before, but never a Veiltail, and never shaped like this.
I haven't come up with a name yet, but I'm sure I will soon
Also this guy is HUGE! I alway thought my delta tail, Blueberry (in my avatar) was a healthy size but he looks tiny after seeing my new boy.
Does his color/pattern have a name? Is there a name for the trait causing the very long pectorals?
Here he is!!
