Guest delerious Posted April 21, 2010 Report Share Posted April 21, 2010 Just wondering what they are? It seems that all the different fin types can be dragon? ie HM dragon, Plakat dragon and so forth. I haven't managed to deduce what makes a betta a dragon? Thanks :photo: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul Posted April 21, 2010 Report Share Posted April 21, 2010 Yes, a dragon can be a betta of any fin type, male or female. The key feature that makes a dragon is the "finish" on the scales. The dragon scaling appears thick and heaped up. It appears gradually as a fish grows up. I might be wrong, but, in addition to this, technically to be considered a dragon the finish needs to extend onto the face (so "full mask")... not 100% sure. Someone else might be able to help. Do a quick search on aquabid for "dragon" in any of the betta categories and you'll get a feel for what they look like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest delerious Posted April 21, 2010 Report Share Posted April 21, 2010 hmmm... the only thing thats making scales appear any different to me is if they're metalic lol I had a look at aquabid and one minute i think i can see it but then i find another example to compare with and no.... Well i did have one success and fell in love with a fish! but I don't have a tank yet so can't buy him lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
