These girls are my moms, but we don't know what kind of tails they are.

The light female is named Jaws, and it fits her perfectly, which is why she is in the glass. It is temporary, my mom bought her from aquariumfish.net, and she is the meanest little girl I have ever seen. Anyway, what kind of tail is she?

The darker one was one my mom bought from walmart, she saw her and just felt terrible for her, and saved her from the numbnuts who don't know how to take care of bettas, even though it is a part of their job. Its a miracle she made it, she had so much old food in her cup, the water was so foggy you almost couldn't see her, she "respectfully" brought it to the managers attention and schooled him a bit on how his employees should take care of them. Anyway, we also can't figure out her tail, what kind is hers?

Thanks everyone!

Happy Betta Lovin'

Jaws looks like a veiltail the darkerone can't really tell but the photo may be a Crowntail or veiltail

 

[Luimeril]

they both look like veils to me. beautiful girls, though!

Jaws looks like a Veiltail and the darker one looks like a Combtail.

 

[bettanova2]

Looks like cambodian and second one maybe blue female crowntail

 

[MrVampire181]

Cambodian and royal blue veil tails.

And a slight rant... just because there's spikes doesn't mean a fish is CT.

The darker one did get her fins nipped at by Jaws, hence the temporary glass home for her. I don't know if she did all the little cut looking things on the tail, but she did nip at everybody in that tank, I will try to put another pic of the darker one up tonight, if not tomorrow. Thanks guys!

Everyone was just asked their opinions no need to rant over it.

 

[betta lover1507]

there both VTs the first one is a red combodian, the second one looks steel blue

 

[CasperandSunny]

Okay guys, here are the other pics. I am sure she must be a VT, we were hoping one was a HM, but she will just have to keep searching for one. I really appreciate everyone's time. :-D

 

[betta lover1507]

a HM has a 180 degree fin (caudal) spread ;p i think you meant delta lol. but she doesn't look like a royal blue, she looks a like a steel blue. did you try AB aquabid?

 

[CasperandSunny]

Yeah, I have seen MANY from there, but she is picky about who she wants, if it where me, I would have already gotten like over a dozen HM from there. But she ordered the little Cambodian from aquariumfish.net, and wanted to buy one from there, but I don't think they have female HM's. I've been looking hard for her though. Thanks

here's a link:
http://www.aquabid.com/cgi-bin/auction/search.cgi
the one with the american flag icon is in the U.S. the world icon is another country, where you pay a bit more

 

[CasperandSunny]

Thanks for the link, I will try and get her to look into the site more, I love the selection.

 

[betta lover1507]

your welcome am supposed to get my Halfmoon (or she is a delta) female tomorrow, am so excited, but STUPID school i can't be there to open the box.

 

[Luimeril]

what size tank do they live in, and how many girls are there? either way, they're adorable. :3

 

[CasperandSunny]

Well, she just got four used tanks at the flea market yesterday, She is going to leave three females in a 3 gal, they are 2 double tails and the little steel blue veil tail you see here. I got her a cute little green/blue VT Friday, and she is going to put her and jaws into I think it is a 5 gal. that she just bought, she is testing the aquarium now to make sure there is no leaks, then she will put them both in at the same time, so Jaws can't claim territory before the new little green one does.

You may want to consider a larger tank for the sorority. I just started one about a week and a half ago in a 10gal tank. I tried at first with 3 because that was what I thought was the minimum number for it to work. But 2 of my girls ended up killing the other one. I have since added 3 more girls to the tank and tried to put a lot of plants and rocks for them to hide in and claim. this group has been in there for about 12 days and seem to be doing well. I have some picks posted some where on these forums but need to get some better ones....those girls are quick.:lol:
