I've posted new photos and have extended my offer time until Monday the 17th since it took me longer than expected to get photos.  Current offer of $170 for her, Please PM me if interested.

I'm debating letting Greek Firefly go..I love her but desperately need money.. how much is she worth?  If you look closely at the photo you can see she has a scratch to her plastic on her front leg, and that's the only real flaw that I can find.

Whispers, Speckles is absolutely gorgeous! Was he sick when you got him or was he just young? I didn't know they could lose and gain color like that.

Thank you! Photos don't do him justice! I've learned that marbled bettas don't stay the same color, due to the gene that causes the marbling.

It's really amazing to see a fish turn colors like that!  I'm guessing Speckles will continue filling out with color.  At first it was disappointing because I have always wanted a marbled halfmoon betta but I love him just the way he is!

I love Marimo moss!  I have two with each of my bettas.  one tank is heated to 80 degrees, and the other is around 75.  My ghost shrimps like to eat it though so they end up falling apart.  You can get them for about $8 at petsmart and petco has them too for $10.  they really are cute!  you can even buy them on ebay!

hug him in the box   he does look really cute, good find!

I finally a betta with the colors I wanted!  Meet Speckles - A Halfmoon Double Tail Betta..  I wish I had a better photo but most of them I take show him as green when he really is blue with no green at all.    I got his name from a list of 101 dalmatian names, and then realized it was also a baby pony name and just had to keep it as that

I have had tonnes of fish over the years - mostly bettas Sadly though, one of our cats is utterly obssessed with fish so we have a strict no tank inside rule.
On the bright side, it has meant that I have been able to set up a pond outside We currently have 6 goldfish and 5 koi (3 of them are butterfly finned koi and are just gorgeous!), but we're about to renovate the whole area and make it much MUCH bigger, with slip ponds and fountains into an aquaponics setup, which will be used to grow something (not sure what yet, as I already have a vegie garden, and we grow water mint, water chestnuts and a few flowering plants in the pond).
Of course if I had MY way, I'd be converting our pool into a massive koi pond I love my little koi friends

Sounds lovely!  Do you have a picture?  I would love to have an outdoor pond!

I have one betta, Sammie, and two ghost shrimp  (Thing 1 and Thing 2)
When I first got Sammie he lived in a critter keeper

but now he lives in a 5 gallon tank, with the shrimp, and i have blue sand in there instead and a few marimo moss balls.  i wanted a planted tank with java moss but when i kept the moss in quarantine i quickly found out i had a snail, who after a few weeks started leaving weird trails around the container and i found out it was a pond snail and rapidly having babies.  i had to find a pond to release them into, but they were fascinating to watch.

this is my cat watching the fish, and the snails in the critter keeper when i had them

Sammie watches me a lot.  He starts flaring when my cat comes to visit him.  He doesn't like anyone looking at him, he gets mad and flares at them but he tolerates me..sometimes.  It's really funny, I would have never guessed that a fish could pay attention to me like that and be so involved with whats going on around him.



i would like to get another betta.  i'd like a half moon betta who is marbled with blue.
