Here are some pics of my new bettas

Tell me what you think

ikermalli · 10-23-2007, 09:25 AM

They're really nice! What type of filter do you have in that last picture? Also how did you upload the pictures straight to the site

shade2dope · 10-23-2007, 12:03 PM

Well in these tanks there undergravel they work pretty good but the two are going to be in a ten gallon divided my brother threw a toy and broke there other tank well cracked it but still i dont want it to go all the way and kill my fish(good thing it wasnt the 55g or i would have hurt him) so this week i have to go get a new one in the ten thought there a sponge filter so that when breeding time comes iam all ready but this liltle thing is going to set me back some more time.............
About pic i use photobucket and just use the img code and paste to site not that hard. if you dont have it make a account.

**Damon** · 10-23-2007, 12:59 PM

I dont see a ct in any of the pics......

shade2dope · 10-23-2007, 06:03 PM

well thats what i bought them as if not a ct then what. It isnt a veil tail, hm dt ect ...or are you saying that cause there not up to your standards

Dr_House · 10-23-2007, 06:32 PM

Great looking bettas, shade2dope. The first and third pictures look like a crowntail to me, and a very attractive one at that.

ikermalli · 10-23-2007, 06:46 PM

the second looks like a vt female to me or a plakat male lol but im new to this so don't take my word for it

shade2dope · 10-23-2007, 06:50 PM

Thank you Dr_House the second one is a female but its hard to see but she has double ray fins i just got it.....it is possible that a diffrent female got in the crowntail female tank at the breeder tanks at the store in lansing.. it looked like a crowntail female to me but iam new at this too

ikermalli · 10-23-2007, 06:52 PM

cool she must look really nice in real life, how did you get such good pics though?

ikermalli · 10-23-2007, 06:53 PM

Also those fake plants in the females tank, i have those how does she like it? I was afraid to put them in when I was setting up because I thought my ct's tail might get caught in it and get ripped off

shade2dope · 10-23-2007, 07:35 PM

well the feamle all i had to do was make it so the two can see each other and bam got the pic first try the male though he thinks iam going to take him out everytime i go near the tank so he hides thats why there not as good.. the plant do good she "sits in the flower on top it pretty cool but there is the chance that something like that will happen so silk is a better idea but i check on them everday so if there a problem then i can do somthing about it. i got the plants with my ten when i bought it

ikermalli · 10-23-2007, 07:43 PM

My CT is always in a perfect position but once he sees the camera he swims away (not that there is much space in a one gallon though)

shade2dope · 10-23-2007, 07:51 PM

well one thing i do to keep the camrea in focas at what i want and not scare him is zoom in and stand back

new pic

ikermalli · 10-23-2007, 08:01 PM

okay I will try that

ikermalli · 10-23-2007, 08:12 PM

hey, it worked for me check it out

ikermalli · 10-23-2007, 08:13 PM

thank you so very much!

ikermalli · 10-23-2007, 09:29 PM

Hey shade2dope how often do you change the water in your ten gallon? and how much percent?

FinnFan · 10-24-2007, 05:56 AM

Love the coloring. The teal is so pretty.

shade2dope · 10-24-2007, 07:05 AM

I change about 20% a week in the ten then once a month 50% in my other tanks.I havent got really to clean this one cause my brother broke it. Thanks finnfan. To damon i would really like to know why you dont see him as being a crowntail if you will. mabe iam missing something.I have also heard the some veil tail can look like ct but iam sure that hes is a ct

Dr_House · 10-24-2007, 09:47 AM

Nice looking. I suspected the second picture was a female Crowntail, but I don't have an eye that is trained well enough to spot it. On the male, it is painfully obvious. Great catches!
