I demand more pictures!!!

I think this gal is staying here... I still have to sort my females but she looks very promising. Of course, she might end up in the sell pile if her sisters beat her.

If you don't mind me asking, how much does a fancy male (or female) run? /one of this Karen's fishes. xD

Thank you! Branching refers to the rays found on the fish. A good betta will have thick primary rays that will hold their finnage well. Each of those rays branch out into other rays than then branch out and so on. I attached a picture and I hope the owner can forgive me because I saved this a very long time ago and can't remember where I got it from to give credit.
Karen mostly works with multis, no "fancy" which is a nice word for bad marbles IMO. She's working with lavender MGs, green bfs and blues at the moment I think.
Her fish can go anywhere from $25 to $100+ as they are coveted by the betta community and her auctions attract a lot of attention; but it would be very hard to find females like hers somewhere else, they are outstanding!
