    I recently bought a crowntail and noticed his tail is quite skinny. I also notice that on many other bettas. Some crowntails have very wide, spread fins. Is this stress related? Or are they just bred differently? Or is it age related? I'll post pictures when I can of my boy compared to other boys

    Hello all! I'm a long- time fish owner, off and on, for several decades. Everything from 50 gallon to 5. Multiple bettas over the years as well as community tanks. I've been a member before, but I couldn't figure out which email address I used. I've recently set up my 5 gallon, Spec v again...
  4. Betta Spawn Logs
    Male was a royal blue crowntail betta and female was half moon plakat with koi/marble color. I would call the offspring combtail or halfsun, I'm hoping to get crowntail plakat with blue marble or koi color from the next generation. The fish are approximately 3 months old, until a few weeks ago...

    I am brand new to BETTAS! I met my girlfriend 8 months ago and learned a lot about fish. My girlfriend, who's been taking care of bettas for over 4 years now.. she got her 1st one and named him Rambo. He was a Blue with Red Splendens. RAMBO was around 3 and a half years old when she decided...

    Hello everyone! I used to be on this forum 10 years ago at the age of 13. By the time I stopped using the forum at 18, I had 8 betta fish. My username was bettaluver4ever, but for the life of me I could not remember my password after all these years, so I just made a new account. I have pretty...
  7. Breeding Betta Fish
    The delta tail gene is recessive, so would breeding a male delta tail male with a crowntail female just result with crowntails? Or rejects?

    Well, this is my second post on here (my first being a cry for help for a very sick betta I tried to rescue from Petsmart...he made it one week, sadly, but I did everything I could). I came across my second love (named Leviathan) at walmart of all places (I'll include his pic). I believe he is...
  9. Breeding Betta Fish
    Sadly my earlier breeding attempt failed and both my veiltails died. After burying both in my backyard, I did some research and decided to either breed a crowntail spawn or try to breed a halfsun. Because crowntails are recessive (at least from what I've seen) and half moons are dominant, is...
  10. Betta Fish Care
    So, as the subject implies, I'm a complete newbie to the 'Betta Life' :-) Last night I rescued a beautiful blue crowntail male betta from PetSmart (I seriously wanted to cry seeing them all in little cups!!!) After buying the initial 1.8 gal tank (and THEN educating myself on standard tank...

    I've had bettas as a kid, but I always kept them in a single gallon bowl. After having a betta last year that developed fit rot, I set up a 5 gallon tank for him, but then the tablets I used to treat the fit rot killed him! But not to be sad, I mourned him and soon purchased a new betta. My...

    This morning when I woke up I went to check on and feed my crowntail betta, Mocha, when I noticed he wasn't swimming to the top to greet me like he does every day. I found him hidden inside his little cave and when i finally managed to coax him out of hiding, I saw that his forehead had a weird...
  14. Journals
    Hello everyone who decides to read my journal. Here's a bit about my "collection". I have seven betta in total. Two possibly three female. And four male. A pleco, two neon tetra, two neon danios, a flame tetra, and a long fin black tetra. The tetra, aside from the flame tetra, were my sister's...
  15. Betta Spawn Logs
    I spawned this pair yesterday, 16/5. The male: My good pics of the female are on my other harddrive so here's a so-so pic of her after spawning. There's a rip in her caudal. They're both about 4 months old. Here's a video of their first introduction...

    King was my crowntail betta. He was a silly fella and would perk up when I sat at my desk and did schoolwork. He made studying for finals more fun! Although he are his first snail buddy, Gary, who died, he was friendly to Slowski, the next snail. King survived car rides in a critter keeper in a...

    Well, a week ago my precious Apple died. I guess he was a bit old.. He was doing just fine (I checked the water, everything is ok), but he was getting shy and didn’t want to flare or make bubble nests anymore.. at first I thought that it could be because of the other female bettas (too much...

    My brother's crowntail betta has fin rot. We treated it once about a month ago and he seemed to be doing better, but it has returned and I want to know what suggestions you might have to help him? We tried Tetra LifeGuard already. I suspect the issue might be a water issue, because my brother...

    So my Crowntail betta, Alexandr, has had weird bubble things on his anal fin for a while, and I looked online, but hardly anyone had this problem, and any similar ones, people didn't know what it was. They keep disappearing and reappearing again, sometimes in small clusters, and sometimes in one...
