Welcome Peter!

Welcome aboard Jim. Where bouts in Sydney are you? Cheers, Richard.

Yep it purely is a colour thing in these guys! Though i really do think they are black calvus if they were purchused from a LFS. There are no breeders of white calvus at the time being, and if they were they'd be offloaded to the public first rather than the shops. An easy recount of the price by Lisa should be able to clarify which strain of calvus they are. Cheers, Richard.

Wow you sure do have a good memory Calla! Is the culture still thriving? I am after a starter of VE's if you have any? It is really good to be back, im still so dazed as to how much the hobby has grown in just under a decade! I'm looking forward to sharing some of my past experience in keeping and breeding these guys, and look forward to reaping from the wonderful pool of knowledge of all you guys on here! So is there a designated chat night on the forum yet? Really keen on catching up. Cheers, Richard.

Hi Bettarazzi, I've got my eyes on a pair of Black Dragon HMPKs from Kit (Aquastar71). When i just got out of bettas i remember the copper strains just hit the market and they were fetching a hell of a lot. Now seeing these new dragon strains available it has really caught my eye so i think i will be concerntrating on these for a while. It's funny though, i never had an eye for plakats but after seeing these dragon plakats i think i've found my new love! Love your barrack system btw! Cheers, Richard.

Hey guys, After a long break from bettas i am finally back! Many of you may not remember me as when i started there was only the Australian Betta Board. It's been about 8 years now since i last kept and bred bettas, and its amazing to see how much things have changed! I only wished back then that we could purchase and import our own bettas from overseas and get them shipped straight to our door! (Thanks someone). I will be browsing at afew bettas in the upcoming weeks, and hopefully find myself a awesome pair to begin the journey again! Looking forward to learning all the new tips and tricks of breeding these beauties all over again! Cheers, Richard.
