The PK and HMPK thread!

[Mo]

My first HMPK, attitude. Who will forever have a very special place in my heart. He was also my first male who ever bred for me. Such a great father and easy breeder. I have lots of his fry so I'm going to have a hard time selling these fry. But since this male has a very special place in my heat for being my first HMPK, and my first Breeder. And you are getting your first HMPK. Would you like one of his fry for 22 including ship (10+12 dollar ship) the fry in my avi is one of his Babies

Mo, that is a gorgeous fish.

Thanks you. I miss him so much, his detach was a human error. I left the lid off and with this guy.. He always live up to his name. Attitude. I didn't feed him that day either so he was MAD I guess he just got a little too exited and jumped out. I found him 20 minutes after I last checked on him to find him dead.

I'll come visit USA and you can unload ALL the hmpk's on ME!!

WOW! I cant tell you how much i envy all of your PK's.....

And Mo, i am sorry about your little guy, attitude...may he swim in peace :(

Also, i really appreciate your offer! I would love to have one of those beautiful fry, but unfortunately i am unable to do so :(

I am so sorry but i will for sure consider in the future!!!


UPDATE: So, i called my local petsmart, and they said all the really have right now are VTs, CTs and HMs. They also have a handful of DTs and PKs, but they go fast. I really hope i can catch them when their shipment comes in, so i can really pick one up!

Also, IYO, would a HM or PK be better in a 3 gal? I would LOVE both, and i have also been talking about getting an HM for awhile, but i was wondering, do they need extra care becasue of their fins?

Here is the tank i was thinking of getting,does this look ok? I wont use the lights really, and i am not sure about the areator....any tank reccomendations for 3 gallons? thats all i can really fit and i really want to rescue another boy :)

it has some ok reviews....

it has high reviews...and looks promising!


So big question, HM or PK or HMPK?

[LebronTheBetta]

PK or HMPK. It really doesn't matter if you want PK or HMPK.. Really the same thing except the tail angle. (; HMPK since you want a PK and HM, lol. The 2nd one is best IME. Most people tend to go for that one. PKs are better for big tanks, HMs better for small. :D

[MyRainbowBettaFish]

Thanks lebron!

Speaking of the CT, how is he?

also, i think i will do the second one, but now i am so torn between a HM or PK!

I really like both, especially the fins on Hms....hmmm

[LebronTheBetta]

Who? My CT? He's fine! Active as always... He bumped into something and lost some head scales but he'll recover!

A PK and HM will do fine in a tank like that. They'll love the horizontal swimming space! (;

[MyRainbowBettaFish]

Awww Poor Lebron!

Ok well now i am so excited!

The HM's fins will be ok with that filter? Also, did any of you notice what the gallons size on that was?

[LebronTheBetta]

Yeah, but he's a Manfish. Lol. He pretends like it never happened. (;
If you baffle it really well with aquarium sponge or that water bottle method, the HM shouldn't have any problems at all! I believe it's a 6.6 gallon tank. Much more than you hoped but it looks great!
