My new boy! Pictures and a quick question.

My first betta in YEARS. He's lovely! He already has a hot spot in his temporary house. My family used to have a 29 gallon aquarium (we still have it, but 29 gallons is way too big for him considering that I'm a college student who has to take him on trips a few times a year) and we've still got some decorations from it. I took an acrylic shell and put it in Caravaggio's temporary set-up for him. Instead of going into the shell, he's taken up residence right under it and made the space into a nice little den. He's absolutely gorgeous---you can't quite tell from these pictures. I'd never seen a green betta before finding him. : )





He'll be moving into his new 3 gallon him in a few days! I'm so excited!

I have a quick question about him. : ) He's VERY small (only 1.5 inches from tail tip to nose tip!). I was wondering how/if you guys think that he's going to change in appearance as he gets bigger.

Beautiful little guy. I love his name! I'm pretty sure he'll fill out with proper nutrition and room to stretch those lovely fins, he certainly looks like a young one. His colour is called Copper, just so you know. And welcome to the forums! :)

he looks pretty young, almost like a female XD he'll grow more fins, and a red splash as you can see red is growing in his fin's slightly

Cute :) I agree his fins will grow out. He should also get a little fatter, he looks pretty thin right now.
