Great Find at Work!?! (Mild Pic Spam)

[coet]

So, I bought a 10g today and all the stuff to go with it. I already have two bettas, and I was considering a third but all the bettas where I work (PetSmart) were typical colors, so I decided against a third until a little while later. Well, today, I'm talking to my boss and I look up and there is, I swear, an IRIDESCENT betta!

I swear he was flaunting to me. He was swimming and flaring and all that jazz and he was changing from like a light pink to a pale yellow. So, he came home with me. Has anyone else ever seen an iridescent looking betta, or am I just calling him some untechnical name for a technical color? The camera does him no justice, but here he is:

no i bought a boy who is all white but in the light his fins are teal and his body a pink iridescent.

I bet he is pretty. :) Is that him in your avatar?

[MaggieLynn]

yup, that pic doesnt do him justice, got him at petsmart too

[MaggieLynn]

altough i have come to believe he is a she not sure though

It's really possible. I've seen it at work. A couple of our males are females, and one of our regular males is actually a crown tail plakat. Happens all the time.

Woooot. Jelly you work at petsmart. He's handsome.

Our petsmart just got HM's and dragons, and I so want one. I also really wanna go back because a guy who will be living in my dorm goes there, MUST GET TO KNOW GYUGH.

He's a copper - I love coppers! He's so pretty

Cajun - Copper, thanks for telling me the proper color.

Pew - We just got them last month. And, working at PetSmart is okay where I live. I get mad at the betta care. I tested one of the cups last night... But, it's pretty cool otherwise. I love when we get the bettas in. There are usually a lot of pretty ones.

So. Jelly. Ours treats them pretty well here.
