bettachris Ultimate Fish Guru Posts: 3875 Kudos: 4173 Votes: 452 Registered: 13-Jun-2004	when did bettas really get popular. i got into bettas in 1994 and it seems that i got into the hobby at the right time, b/c a few years past and new betta "trends" appeared. like the MG bettas,copper bettas,purple bettas,gaint bettas. but then there's stuff i missed, like old fashion- libby bettas,the new long fins,white bettas etc.

Its hard to tell the popularity of something in general when you are completely immersed in it. For animals, the entire universe has been neatly divided into things to (a) mate with, (b) eat, (c) run away from, and (d) rocks. - Terry Pratchett
