Mr. von Royale

[valleyankee]

Here is a photo of my new and first betta. I got him in a pet shop in Nanuet, New York. Yes he is a New Yorker but he moved to New Jersey because we have a better governor. His name is Flushy Von Royale. He lives on my office desk. His favorite pastimes are fighting with himself in his floating mirror and begging for freeze dried blood worms.

The mirror ritual is so funny, first he circles it 4 or 5 times, then he slaps it a few times with his tail. When he is done with this dance he dives head first into it and gives it a good knock.

Obviously, this is a Crown Tail. He has a black body with a beautiful blue crown. He has 2 orange fins under his belly (is there a name for these?). Is there a name for his color?

I took this picture with my Android, I will try to get a better one tomorrow.

His color name is just royal blue. My first betta was a royal blue :D His name was Nibbles and he loved playing in the filter current. Mr. Von Royale is very pretty.
