Got my new betta today

[aviva90]

:nilly::laugh: I'm so happy with him. he's sooo pretty, 3 different colors: red, blue, and turquoise. Unfortunately he won't let me get a good pic of him yet. Every time I get close he swims away. Did manage to get one semi-decent pic before he swam off. If you guys want I can post more once he lets me close to him. Let me know if you do. But here's the one I got that was decent.

He's very pretty!

Once he de-stresses his colors will come out very nicely

Very nice, his colors will come out even more once he becomes more comfortable in his home! Is there a reason why your water looks so cloudy? Or is it just the picture?

 

[fishycat]

Yay for crowntails! Looking forward to clearer pics... Your water does look cloudy, or is it just dim ambient light?

Thos ARE some pretty colors. I remember you posting about root tabs making your water really cloudy. Has it still not cleared? Either way, beautiful fish.

Nice betta

 

[aviva90]

Thanks everyone! It isn't cloudy water, just not a good camera and against a white wall... more pics in the next week, once he gets used to home

 

[Ashes2ashes]

ahh ok...my camera does that sometimes too. Can't wait to see him when his colors get more vibrant.

 

[aviva90]

Thankies! This hobby makes me want to invest in a decent camera... if I can stop spending all my money on fishies =]

Very pretty.

When he gets more comfortable try a mirror to get a decent pic.

That's how I got these pics of my guy a couple of years ago:

Would have come out even better with a decent camera, rather than the cheap digi I had at the time.
