Here's the male I just got. He's a double tail super delta.



This one is a halfmoon.

cool. we just bought my grandma one.

Spectacular Betta Danny. I slightly got into Bettas a few years back but between that and all the water turtles I had at the time I quickly grew tired of anything that lived in the water. That half moon is pretty fancy too!

Love the halfmoon! Never realized that they had varieties. Just saw them in little glasses at Walmart, fairs, pet shops, etc. I wouldn't mind having one like that on my kitchen counter.

Oh just google them Dee! Its insane! lol

those are so pretty! my brother always kept those when he was younger. i had one once (a gift that i wasn't exactly happy to recieve, as i HATE cleaning fishbowls) but my kitten at the time decided he would make a tasty treat. oops.

beautiful fish, danny. i used to have a few bettas but none as colorful as those!

Are they difficult to keep? I have a neat vase that hangs from a wrought iron base that I bet would look really pretty. I'm under the impression they don't need much room? Or is that how you just see them in the store?

they are able to live in smaller containers because they have a lung-like organ that enables them to breath gaseous oxygen instead of getting the oxygen from the water through gills.
i think more room is better, but in nature they can live in small puddles on the ground.
