WTF King Betta ?????

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
You don't need pics to believe me, all you need is a lesson from professional breeder. If you don't believe it, I careless. The only way you'll believe it is if your a hardcore betta guy like I use to be. I will get my order of giants in about 2 weeks from now(got to call in and check first), from there on...pics will come soon. Betta freaks on Ultimatebettas.com will tell you the same...6-7" bettas do exist, but good luck finding them! :D

Here's the link for a quick lesson. http://www.bettas-jimsonnier.com/genetics7.htm
 
Photos would be nice. Old thread revived and still no pics? WTF!
 
Hello all. I have had Bettas for several years. Not a breeder, but just a fancier. I have to admit I finally caved in and fell in love with "King" Betta from Petco. He is a big healthy boy and he loves the filtered heated world I have given him.
I hope this picture will come over okay.
 
That did not work. Let me try again :

It has been over a month since I brought King Turk home. As you can see, he is doing well.

He flares with gusto and is always front and center of the tank to get all the attention he can from me. Typical Betta and is one of the main reasons I enjoy these guys. There are just 2 things that have me puzzled. One is that his color depth changes as if to show his moods. It goes from almost washed out gray to his typical vibrant turquoise. The other thing is that during the times his body is a light gray, it also shows black horizontal stripes. Just 3 of them. Kind of like a rainbow trout.

Perhaps they *are* mixed with another type of a fish?
 
These types of bettas can get rather large.......
:ROFL:

I might be bringing home a paralytic or sinker betta today. If I do, I'll post a pic here, WITH a ruler shot for size.
