can someone tell what type of betta is this based on fin and colouration

[Fishfresher88523]

i got this as a gift 15 days ago (its my 1st fish) so someone please tell me its type and does it look ok?

He looks like a VT. It'd be nice to see him flaring.

[Fishfresher88523]

Previously he used to flare ...nowadays he just tries to attack his image so trying to get him to flare is a bit risky plus I've lost my small mirror when i get it ill try again... N thx for the help ...

He is just a regular VT

Veil is the correct word, as in "Bridal Veil"
Vail means to lower, descend; to make a gesture (typically tip of a hat) of respect/deference/submission.

No disrespect, but I have to point that out every time, because there are several streets in my neighborhood that are incorrectly spelled/worded and Vail is one of the mistakes. It bothers me to this day, a year and a half later.

Maybe it's like my iPhone and the Mac and auto-corrects I know it does for me!
