	New Betta
djtj Fish Master Posts: 1764 Kudos: 885 Votes: 49 Registered: 20-Feb-2003	I got my second betta today (or my brother got his first, depends on how you look at it ) He pretty small and he has a black body with dark blue fins. The coolest thing about him is that his fins have enlongated rays. The fins look like webs. Right now, he's sitting in a 1 gallon glass bowl, enjoying a meal of frozen brineshrimp. Matt decided to name him Spike. - DJ :88)

Basically, crowntails are extended version of combtails... the webbing recedes more, and the rays are more ounced.[/font] ~Meow. Thus spoke the cat.~

djtj Fish Master Posts: 1764 Kudos: 885 Votes: 49 Registered: 20-Feb-2003	Kitten, Prism looks EXACTLY like my first betta. He just celebrated his 2nd birthday. I'm not sure if my fish is a combtail, I used to think so, but he's so old he rarely spreads his fins wide enough for me to see. Oh and Spike is definitely a crowntail. His fins are almost as ounced as the one on that website. It's funny because I told my brother at first not to buy him because he is blind in one eye. But then he flared his fins and my brother fell in love with him.
