New requested pix of Matthew! =]

[DarthMaul]

Sorry for the poor quality, but here he is!

[xxabc]

He's really showing color, compared to your first pic!

[DarthMaul]

you mean the ones from when i first got him? I agree, his blues are getting nicer, but he is also starting to show white! booo i love the blue more haha. But i guess a mix would be beautiful. How do his fins look compared to saturday night?

[xxabc]

They look the same. The the blue edging is really throwing me off... that may just actually be his natural tail. I would hope so, there's something about it that makes me want him too! Haha.

I would LOVE a blue / white betta. Appreciate it before I steal him, haha.

He's beautiful! Unfortunately it can take some time (a couple months sometimes) until their fins grow back because they're so fragile. When it grows back it'll be white and transparent.

I feel the same way about his fins. The outside of all his fins are a darker shade =] But i am treating just to be safe. Clean water, love, and aquarium salt for 10 days haha Love nooooo don't steal him haha I want to have a betta for more than a week!! haha

did not know that. I will have to pay attention =]

what do they look like on a betta with clear fins haha like my other guys fins are almost clear

[xxabc]

It will be the very edgings, and will often look "off" from their color. I think you should know when you see it. It's usually only the end sections.

oh ok, cool

[xxabc]

I think I'm gonna expect Matthew to get even a darker shade of blue... just something in me expects it...

[DarthMaul]

that would be AWESOME!! keep speaking good things into him =] I just have a feeling my losing streak with bettas is over!!
