livebearer_breeder Posted August 12, 2006 Report Share Posted August 12, 2006 Personally i love Anabantiods, and i think they deserve there own "Picture Section", especially some of the better betta. So i thought id start things off, with this little fulla. Feel Free to follow Cheers Shae Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PENEJANE Posted August 13, 2006 Report Share Posted August 13, 2006 Now if I had a suitable camera I would take some pics of my youngens. But my camera doesn't do close ups Most of mine are dark red with black ends with a sky blue colour inbetween the rays on their tails. I have one in particular who is comming out as a cambodian/butterfly effect so I am thinking of keeping this one as his fins are pretty see through compared to the others. Maybe I could get a hold of someone with a good camera to come in and take some nice pics for me Still awesome photos guys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caper Posted August 13, 2006 Report Share Posted August 13, 2006 Beautiful fishies The colors are fantastic. Billaney, I noticed that some of yours have shorter fins, have they not grown as yet or are they a different kind of betta? Penejane, I would if I could...but that distance thing just gets in the way :-? :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luke* Posted August 13, 2006 Report Share Posted August 13, 2006 hehe thanks mate, it was taken with my brand new Canon 350D SLR 8MP camera and the auto focus is pretty good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caper Posted August 13, 2006 Report Share Posted August 13, 2006 Nice pic 300 That's a lot of diapers and bottles and...oh yah, they're fishies :lol: :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke* Posted August 14, 2006 Report Share Posted August 14, 2006 Hehe yes thank goodness Caper, also they are happy with greenwater, which I'm sure is much cheaper than baby food. Here's a pic of my female Siamese fighting fish. I spawned her with my red male about two months ago, the guy at the LFS said blue is a recessive colour and he's right, the babies have turned out red. Any way, here she is: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PENEJANE Posted August 14, 2006 Report Share Posted August 14, 2006 Yes Luke I know what you mean about the colours. I crossed my red male with a blue female and out of the whole lot of babies I have managed to get 1 blue female and one tourquise green/red male. But the rest of them are all red with a little hint of blue in their fins. Still awesome fish and I can't wait to see what I get out of my second lot of CT bettas.

Luke* Posted August 14, 2006 Report Share Posted August 14, 2006 Sweet so you got some CTs in the end? Niiice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PENEJANE Posted August 14, 2006 Report Share Posted August 14, 2006 I dont' know if I have any CTs as of yet as they are not even 1cm in legenth hehehe but I have a good hatch rate this time compared to last time. So I have my fingers crossed for hopefully 1 or 2 will show full CT in their fins. But I can only hope at this time untill they are bigger and their fins start to grow :bounce: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caper Posted August 15, 2006 Report Share Posted August 15, 2006 You can't get females here...so by looking at these pics, are all females shorter finned than males???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke* Posted August 19, 2006 Report Share Posted August 19, 2006 Here's my male Red Honey Dwarf Gourami His lil buddy Mrs Blue betta is in the background Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fishkeepa Posted August 21, 2006 Report Share Posted August 21, 2006 I brought a Betta today :bounce: and am going to get some dwarf gouramis tomorrow or wednesday :bounce: if i had a picture i would share but my camera's not working. My betta is a pure red and looks like he may have had a tiny bit of crowntail in his fins - just a guess He doesn't quite look as nice as Billarney's though - but he doesnt know (or seem to think) that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evilknieval69 Posted August 21, 2006 Report Share Posted August 21, 2006 I bought a light bluey/purply male fighter and a same colour female fighter on the weekend. They both have no visible Red's in them, the female is just like the one Luke posted a pic of on the first page, the Male being the same but much nicer with the long fins and more purply and darker blues aswel. I also bought them a breeding tank, made a sponge filter and used a spare heater. Heres hoping for baby bettas in a couple weeks.... Luke, you said earlier that blue is recessive to reds, with a blue male and a blue female will there still be some red babys from the genes possibly from their parents etc...?? I will try get some pics up once i get a couple good ones. Rogan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PENEJANE Posted August 22, 2006 Report Share Posted August 22, 2006 Here are some pics of the ones I currently have. First up is a pic of a female betta, half CT male and another male all from my very first spawning. http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y116/p ... Image6.jpg http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y116/p ... gbetta.jpg http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y116/p ... Image9.jpg **these last two images were taken with the betta still in its cup so they come out a little blury** Honey Gouramis that I have for sale at present. Think these guys are really neat. http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y116/p ... mage16.jpg Here are another couple of shots of my CT betta http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y116/p ... CF6217.jpg http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y116/p ... tbetta.jpg My lovely halfmoon male betta. I don't know if he is full halfmoon or not but he shows all traits for it from what I have researched. His fins are a little scragly looking as he is getting on in his time. http://i4.photobucket.com/albums/y116/p ... dbetta.jpg Enjoy :bounce: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
livebearer_breeder Posted August 22, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2006 Your Red HM is Beautiful Pene!! absolute stunner! Verrrry Impressed. Shae Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PENEJANE Posted August 22, 2006 Report Share Posted August 22, 2006 Cheers Shae. Unfortunatly I think he is on his way out. He has become very slow. No obvious marks or infections so I am putting it down to just getting old but I am making things as comfortable for him as possible in the mean time. I just soooooooo hope that one of his offspring will be just like him. :bounce: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
