Betta Photos

Thought I'd whack up some snapshots of my sorority females (and male). It's hard to believe some of these are the same fish I got only a year or so ago.













This is the same fish as the blue/white marble. I wish he'd stayed that colour. But he gets to live in the sorority for now as he is very well-mannered.

@LittleBettas: Your bettas are amazing! I love the first female! She is beautiful and the white with blue spotted female, looks great as well.

I'm sure you know what you're doing, but I just wanted a confirmation. When you said that you have your male in the tank with the females, are you sure he is THAT "well-mannered"?

I ask this because I have had a male that I was able to house with females. This was the only male that I was able to do that with. I was a bit puzzeled at first because {I was trying to breed him to a really nice red dragon and he wouldn't flare, chase, or harass her. I was a pretty mad because He wouldnt even build a bubblenest. He was very "well-mannered" and was such a beautiful male!

This was him:

Oh he does sometimes get grumpy, but no more than the females do.

I did have to remove the first female and another as they were constantly harassing each other, and stirring up fights with my male. I think it's because they were much bigger than the others and very in his face all the time.

I'm home most of the day since I'm unemployed, so I check on my sorority all the time. He was purchased with my original females and living in a tank with them when I got him. This is the only reason I believe he is not as aggressive with them as another male would.

It's not something I would recommend, but until there's a meltdown he gets to continue to bunk with the females.

@ a123andpoof
I got my females from my LFS, a breeder interstate and Thailand (only the first female).
