My Male Betta

Here is my current collection of male Betta, please excuse any lousy photos. I'm looking around for a 'photo tank', promise. :)



Name: Neptune
Tail type: Crowntail
Colour: Dark-bodied bicolour with iridesence
Tank: 40lt community tank, 3 cardinal tetra, 4 Bronze corydora, 2 Albino corydora.
Notes: Halfmoon spread. Does tricks. Flares at me when I wear a certain black hoodie. My second Betta.




 Name: Mercury
Tail type: Halfmoon Extreme Rosetail
Colour: Metallic Lavender Butterfly
Tank: 12lt divided tank, male neighbour.
Notes: Will sit in your submerged hand to eat out of it. Has an undying hatred for the camera. Fins have poor healing abilities.


 Name: Vulcan
Tail type: Halfmoon
Colour: Red Gold
Tank: 4ft community tank, too many other fish to name. Lives peacefully with a female.
Notes: Peaceful fish. Relaxed attitude toward mirrors and other males.



Name: Mars
Tail type: Halfmoon Plakat
Colour: Metallic Orange
Tank: 2ft community tank, housed with females (was too young to tell sex when I bought him), 9 White Cloud Minnows, 3 Bronze Corydora and 2 Peppered Corydora.
Notes: Full of attitude and spunk. Has spawned with one of my females in the community tank and has never left a mark on her.  Nibbles on finger tips.


Special note: Was bought too young to sex, only recently lost the ovipositor dot, Mars beat him up. He is now Mercury's neighbour.
Name: Can't Swim (to be changed)
Tail type: Halfmoon Plakat
Colour: Metallic Black Lace
Tank: 12lt divided tank, male neighbour.
Notes: Shy and reclusive fish when in the community tank, very curious and friendly on his own. Not phased by his male neighbour flaring at him.
