Neffy Posted April 17, 2010 Report Share Posted April 17, 2010 Ive always wanted a giant betta and the other weekend i got one he was from Coburg aquarium His name is Mr wiggums ! here he is next to one of my other bettas ! He is very sweet, for a long time he didnt want to play with the other male. Mr wiggums has a spot on him it looks not good its above his little flappy fins behind his gill in the 3rd pic but its hard to see, i hope it is nothing to worry about.

Yanagi Posted April 18, 2010 Report Share Posted April 18, 2010 His name reminds me of The Simpsons, Police Chief Wiggum. Love the 2nd shots of him, such detail! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ninoid12 Posted May 11, 2010 Report Share Posted May 11, 2010 oh WOW. I love him!!!!! I only saw yuck coloured giants at coburg when i went (though it was 6+ months ago lol) and i got a white with grey patch. Well done on the find. He is LOVELY. Longfin giants are costly, but i'd reckon worth it *lol* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kandeecane Posted May 12, 2010 Report Share Posted May 12, 2010 (edited) someone had some halfmoon giants in her shop. They are gorgeous! Though they were mostly marble I believe? Mr. Wiggums is a gorgeous fish, too! So is that plakat next to him!!! (I envy your fish!) On the photography side of things... Those are some amazing shots! Wish I could get such detail from my betta. xD Edited May 12, 2010 by Kandee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
