Well it's not the best picture, but he's a split tail and when he raises both the top and bottom fins. It's very unique, it's like rectangular on bottom and top.

something like that.

Yeah, he's the one I'm having trouble with making bubble nests. He started making one when I first got him, but he stopped and havent started since. (I've had him for about 2-3 weeks)

THATS FANTASTIC!

the colour is gorgeous and that is a good split in the tail.

Its called a DOUBLE TAIL.

see how the dorsal fin is all the way along his back and very long? thats genetically linked to the double tail seems a good way to tell if its been bred like that or its an injury

FANTASTIC FISH!

Very pretty fish, congrats!

Some bettas just don't make bubble nests without good reason

Nice find. It's takes some time w/ the bubble nest. It seems like some do it a lot more then others do. I have one male that has 1/2 of his tank always w/ a nest, and another that I've had that hasn't yet in 2 weeks.

I also have a female that has a small one in her tank. How raer is that?
