These are two rescues from my local Petco. I love them to death already! A Delta with unusually goofy, big caudal fins, and a double-tail (I LOVE DTs!). Now I will have four beautiful little men. Bettas... they're addicting... I thought I was going to have just one in July!
I adore anything Dumbo eared, like my rats! Although they actually have big ears, I have no idea why people are saying ears when it comes to Bettas, those are pectoral fins for swimming hehe
I just got a big ear last week from petco, I named him Gabriel. Yours is really pretty, also your double tail What made them standout to you? It's amazing how we all have our own taste in fish and they catch our eye XD usually color catches my attention lol
The "ears" are the pectoral fins, the caudal is the tail.
Here's mine
Copper: What a beautiful fish! And I know, once I hit submit on that post I went "crap!" ... oh well.
I knew that I was buying a divided tank, so I got to choose two (I was so happy!) ... and boy, was it an arduous process. I was there forever, picking out cups and placing them in a "maybe" corner based on looks. The Petco people had to have thought I was nuts! I was down to eight, and then it was more about personality and levels of aggressiveness. I picked Calvin because he looks like a beautiful Koi when he swims, plus the ears and the white chin helped. Katniss was an easy choice because of his personality. He picked ME. Plus, I've always wanted a DT, and he's such a cute little young one!
What made you choose your fish? (Question directed to anyone!)
