Wow she is beautiful. If you dont mind me asking where you got her?

Im planning a sorority in the summer and would love some dragon females too.
And sure will!

I got her at Big Al's fish store (as a rescue, but that's another story!). If I ever see any more girls like her I'm gonna start a sorority too, they're so fun

I'm not too sure why people call buying a betta at a pet store a "rescue." Is it because of the small containers? Bettas are anabantoids and don't mind small space. It's keeping them within sight of other bettas for so long that stresses them out. maybe that's why they need "rescuing".

It's just a forum thing. I have a betta named rescue that was a legit rescue. She was riddled with columnaris and had almost no fins left. She's recovered well and has now been moved to a divided 10 gallon NPT tank and seems to love it

People call them rescues because they're usually bought when in bad conditions. Extreme ammonia levels, terrible fin rot, emaciated, sick. Pet stores push the limits of a bettas stereotypical water capacity, and to top it off they usually do 1 water change a week, sometimes less sometimes more depending on the staff.

Wow Ares is delightful. And new buddy is very pretty too. If you dont mind me asking where did you get your dragon boys?

Both came from Petsmart The new boy has better scaling than Ares does and is very pale, I'm thinking of naming something related to ice because he's so silvery. He looks to actually have butterfly markings that's hard to see in the photo. I think I got lucky with both of them

Yeah new guy is precious he has such an interesting look. He reminds me of Icicles.
Yes you got very lucky! congrats
