Sarah Posted March 30, 2012 Report Posted March 30, 2012 Didn't think I'll be buying a VT, but I do quite like some of them, but not the general ones you see in the pet stores. This boy is steel blue, and couldn't resist (shame about the redwash though). Strictly a pet! Lots more to come!
Sarah Posted March 30, 2012 Author Report Posted March 30, 2012 Red ventrals really popped in this pic, they really aren't this bright!
Sarah Posted March 30, 2012 Author Report Posted March 30, 2012 Something to do with the lighting/camera setting seemed to make this guy appear royal blue in a couple of these pics - he definitely is steel!
les Posted March 30, 2012 Report Posted March 30, 2012 Great Pics Sarah and he is a nice VT I always have a pet VT around just for oldtimes sake CheerslEs
Sarah Posted March 30, 2012 Author Report Posted March 30, 2012 Thanks Les. He has a nice bubble nest going this morning - keen isn't he!
shadoh Posted March 31, 2012 Report Posted March 31, 2012 Is this going to be the future father of your sister's red wash betta? :rofl:
Sarah Posted March 31, 2012 Author Report Posted March 31, 2012 Right on Zui! Shadoh, I DON'T THINK SO! To everybody that was a reference to a story I told the other night. My older sister wanted me to spawn her a pet Betta and was being EXTREMELY specific in which colouring/tail type she wanted. I showed her someone's videos. I showed her Aquabid fish. She said the fish I had were nice, but not what she wanted. Then, she found her "dream fish" and would settle for nothing other than a.... BLUE. VEILTAIL. WITH. LOTS (had to be lots) OF REDWASH. Geez. I told her it would be too hard to move all the fry, and unless she wanted the ENTIRE spawn, it was a no deal. She only wanted one so went off muttering. The thing is, she doesn't want me to go and just get one from the pet store from her, I have to breed it so she can tell people her little sister bred it. So I was thinking of educating her, and giving her one of the fry from the grooming comp - blue with red wash. Sure, I think they're crowntail, not veil tail, but it's either settle for it or go and be betta-less.
Zui Posted March 31, 2012 Report Posted March 31, 2012 It's a pride/bragging thing Look what my little sister can do !
Sarah Posted March 31, 2012 Author Report Posted March 31, 2012 Yep, she can totally breed blue VT's - with redwash!
Fletch Posted April 15, 2012 Report Posted April 15, 2012 I blame you Yan. You are a terrible influence to little innocent Sarah. :-).
Sarah Posted April 15, 2012 Author Report Posted April 15, 2012 No haha! If people ask his name I'm not going to be able to say it with a straight face aha. I blame Yan too. :P
Fletch Posted April 15, 2012 Report Posted April 15, 2012 Just don't start giggling uncontrollably. ROFL.
melbournebetta Posted April 15, 2012 Report Posted April 15, 2012 Sarah, Little bonger has come a long way - he looked a bit sorry for himself, but he's flaring and looks like his few wiggly rays have straightened out. Has he been through all his 12 steps?
Sarah Posted April 15, 2012 Author Report Posted April 15, 2012 Thanks Nessy! I think all these pics were taken like a day apart, if not on the same day? So maybe it's the angle? Although, he definitely does look happier now, so proud of my littler bonger! Which 12 steps would they be?
Zui Posted April 15, 2012 Report Posted April 15, 2012 Glad to hear the Bonger has settled in . giggle giggle
Fletch Posted April 15, 2012 Report Posted April 15, 2012 Don't forget to strain the water once you have aged it and before adding it to the tank........... Too far??? Lol.
