Short-fin Males are common in Thailand. They're considered the best "fighters" because of their short fins. I believe they seem to look bigger than normal bettas because of their short fins. It makes them appear bigger. In fact, they're about the same size as a normal betta...they just look stalkier. They are, however, more aggressive than the normal betta and have more color. Sorry to say, Sen_Jie, but they would max out at 6" to 8" They'll probably be max out at 4"
the short fins dun make them look bigger... they are bigger... jus cos u nvr seen bettas tht big doesnt mean tht they dun exist... we got them here in sg...

you can make normal bettas short finned by fighting them. just don't let them kill each other. let emheal and fight them again and again soon there fins are short
might as well use scissors... it wont work letting them fight each other... ever heard of genes?

the vertical bars shows it is a female, but it can only be shown in a dark coloured betta. the light coloured bettas doesn;t shows such bars. u got to look at the egg sag.

thats intresing, i spoke to the chairman of the anabantoid association on this subject at the national finals and he said females can be proven by the egg spot above the anal fin but ive never seen one on any betta species. can you elaborate on the egg sag/sack(sp?) im intrested to learn more

ok u look at my last female which i hav posted. and u look at the ventral fin. jus behind the ventral fins do u c a small spot protuding out? tat is the egg spot. as for the egg sag u can only c it on a light colored betta, which i do not hav. some light colored bettas are, platinum, white, gold and yellow.
