My betta certainly changed a lot! This change occurred in under two weeks at that.

Wow! This thread is fantastic! I'm loving all the before and after pictures. Great job everyone and I can't wait to see more! :)

My female dalmatian. Not a spot on her when I bought her from Petsmart. Now she is one of the prettiest, best spotted dalmatian girls I know! She also grew more than one whole inch in just body, not to mention the serious fins she got for a female. Also, I can see her teeth, which is both amazing and scary.

These couple don't have a huge difference but it shows how nicely normal Bettas can mature.





Punkin is a VT, he is the largest Betta I have had so far by body size. He's gone from a less than a gallon critter keeper to his 10 gallon aquarium lol. He and I have come a long way, I've had him for almost 2 years now, he started out as a small orange boy with pretty green/blue fins. He's now a darker orange with metallic shimmery green along the top of his body and his fins are more purple with red and some bits of blue.



Epilepsy was an HM. He was a brat lol, he had a very bad problem with biting his fins and unfortunately he ended up tearing them down to Plakat size before I had to put him to sleep due to Lymphocystis. He was such a pretty boy and really grew up with great colors.

Wow, Igor is like a whole nother fish!

Amazing. That must have been unexpected. Ignor doesn't have a spot of blue on him in the first picture!


I feel so bad because I have been shamelessly spam their pictures everywhere. But what can I do? They're like kids.

So pretty! I really want my next Betta to be a Double Tail, I have had mostly Halfmoons.. Actually I think out of the 17 (i think) Bettas I have had over the years atleast 8 of them have been Halfmoons and not one Double.

And yes, they are just like children, but more fun lol. :)
