2 brand new Betta Girls !!! | |
LEE_WILMOT_706 Enthusiast Posts: 243 Kudos: 201 Votes: 3 Registered: 27-Jun-2004 | Well today I went to my LFS because I wanted a male betta. They had 1 red one, but he look all batter and not doing to good, so I passed, plus there were some dead fish in that tank so you can't be to careful. But then I saw these beautiful betta girls, and I had to get 2 pf them. oOne is nice purple wash, with hints of blue. The other is a dark body, with cream latural markings and a blue dorsal fin !! They're settling in nicely, and theres been no fighting or chasing, which is good. Now all I need are names for these two lovely ladies. Any suggestoins would be grateful !! P.S. I may go get the male at a later date and have him in his own 3 gallon bowl, which would be cool ! Last edited by LEE_WILMOT_706 at 25-Jun-2005 13:17 |
