My new betta

cool pictures!
 
Thanks guys, He is a common veil tail I bought him at my local shop.

I think your store may have misidentified him: look at this site and scroll down (or ctrl+F) to "Heart Tails." Notice the long, almost sailfin-like dorsal yours has? Very similar to the double-tail in the upper picture, as well as a similar coloration. But his tail more closely resembles the heart-tail in the lower picture.

You might have gotten a bargain. Either way, he's very pretty. :grinyes:
