Help, experts! VT, Round tail, VT cross?

[Sena Hansler]

Eh for the heck of it He has VT droop, usually....when he sleeps....but mainly holds himself grand xD I love him. Lol. I got him as a veil tail, but as you can tell from the photos his caudal is very....round. Someone mentioned round tail on "Skull and Big Red" but I'd like to ask you guys - because you'd know more than me :) I know VT, crowntail, double tail, and halfmoon.... That's about it =D


And yes his one fin had been chewed....he was a new shipment when i got him

Either a Spade Tail or a Veiltail/Halfmoon cross

[Sena Hansler]

he'd definitely have to have VT in him xD

I was told..... spade was another tail in the VT grouping, basically aimed at the unique shape? -if I remember correct-

[betta lover1507]

looks like a round, halfmoon gene's wouldn't have the side of the caudal rounding, they would've went diagonally opposite directions outwards. he is either rounded or a VT

[Sena Hansler]

Okay....explain a round tail. How, what? I've never SEEN a round tail in person o.o When he started flaring more I was shocked to see a purty tail I don't see in any VT males xDD

[betta lover1507]

well basically round tails are round, some form of a VT, check the sticky in the betta care section.

Either a round tail or a very young, very heavy finned VT male. He still hasn't come into his full potential yet.

ooh, i like him

[Sena Hansler]

thanks fellas He is fairly small, especially compared to Skull, or even Shiloh. He has some growing to do I love my Red xD

First I apologize for the bad pictures. Some reason the camera is hating any fake light and today there is NO natural light from outside what a gloomy day outside!! I tried my best and took a good 30 pictures and finally gave up...

So the black lining on his tail (not fin rot or anything!) is breaking away to make way! He doesn't look like a roundtail anymore. I have never seen a betta's tail grow or anything, other than Crayola's but his was length, nothing more. His is getting WIDER... along with the black is breaking away to make way for it to be longer.

So, now I dunno although it is interesting to watch these changes take hold literally every day...
