Cannot believe what I saw at PetCo today! the had tons of HMPK's! It was so hard to settle with one. And yes I HAD to have one. Unfortunately their fish were not in good conditions. Many dead bettas I had to guarantee at least one a good home. There was a mustard, a yellow/green butterfly, a blue one, a gray dragon, a white one, a red butterfly and a bunch of others. I wanted to grab them all! I narrowed it down to this guy and a salmon pink HMPK with white dragon scales. Then after much contemplation I went with this guy. He seems to have a little bit of damage to his scales (you can see 2 missing scales in the pics) but seems otherwise healthy. Very spunky. Also bought a 2.5 gal glass tank. $28 later and here I am...
Oh, he's gorgeous! Wonderful find! I love the last pic, he's totally like "no, no... this is my better side." Haha. Beautiful! What does your tank look like? Just out of curiosity.
Nothing special. Just gravel and a few rocks. I threw in a cutting of Pothos so he can play in until I can afford to buy some java ferns and/or anubias plants. May also put up a black background. Tank is currently sitting in my nightstand. Using some white plastic mesh as a hood until I can find something better or perhaps build my own.
lol, he's really pretty!!!
He looks shy with his front fins curled inward like he's saying "aw, you want a picture of me?"
Then the next with them out everwhere he looks like "okay!"
^_^
Goodness, he's so adorable. Post as many pictures as you like!
