Thanks :D I hope so too.





I also got inspired and found names for these guys really quick :D

the first guy is Ikran because his eyes are big like a birds and the way he cocked his head and looked down at my camera reminded me of the things in Avatar who are kinda like birds XD

The copper fire is Alucard(From the anime Hellsing ultimate) Because of his black tipped red fins, and how feisty he is.


Here's better pics

The platinum dude who I think is a little but of a feather tail. It's really hard to get him to flare XD
Sorry for this pic being over exposed a little, I wanted the red on his fins to come out.

He flared completely only once and I only captured the end of it, but nice shot of his tail, is this a feather tail?



And here's Alucard who is a OHM, I really really hope he lets that gorgeous tail grow back in :D ... oh poor thing, his tail really looks bad when he flares.

She is really pretty, I just took more photos of the girls too since they've colored up. I decided to move my king Betta so all my girls could be in my 15g. I moved almost all my plants into it, and left a bunch of stuff on the surface so my smaller girls will always have an escape from the bigger girls, so far it's been really good. I think that since the bigger girls had been in a sorority that had only a few floating plants and lots of open space they are more mellow.

Here's the better photo's of them

One more picture,
I think it's awesome that Ikran has a black chin and belly. and his body color reminds me of a abalone shell because of the iridescence

[smellsfishie]

They really do look good. I am not sure on tail type for Ikran... Kinda reminds me of a feather tail but it looks a little different- and doesn't look like a rose tail. But maybe it would just be called a feather tail? Not sure. Sorry. lol
