np, I just wanted some other opinions, as well, but didn't want to hijack the other thread. :) So, you think he could be a cross with one of those?

I have this betta that I rescued from PetCo, and I am having trouble deciding on his tail type. He looks mostly like a VT, but as I understand it, VT's do not have symmetrical tails, and George's is perfectly symmetrical. So, I'm confused. Is he VT with a bit of something else mixed in, or what...

Maybe part, but not completely... I'm going to start a thread on this one. :) And, flamepony, that would be a rosetail, not just a plain HM. Very Gorgeous!!!

This may be a stupid question, but did you remember the dechlorinator? I have forgotten once... she was only in there a couple of minutes before I realized I had forgotten, but it was enough to make her sulky for a while.

Are those two pics the same fish?!? In the first, he looks like a Half sun, and in the Second he looks like a Rose Tail. either way... :drool:

Thanks, Fury, I got the order mixed up on microworms and brine shrimp. :blush: And, the allergies are not through touch. The reaction happens to my eyes. They start feeling really heavy, and then they start watering, because they swell up a little, and my right eye sometimes gets ulcers on it...

Piglet is a veil tail Percy is a crown tail I can't really tell what type Caden is from the picture, but he looks as if he may be a delta? I would say delta or veil, but I really can't tell from the pic. They are all pretty, but I think Piglet is my favorite. He's adorable!

And to think: He was a rescue!!! When I saw him, he looked so ugly... he looked like he had really pale pink fins and a gray body. I put him in the most prominent place on the shelf and left, hoping someone would buy him, because he has a great personality. I went back a week later, and he was...

I am thinking about breeding over the summer... I have a problem though. I am allergic to brine shrimp. I thought it was just the frozen ones, but I got some freeze-dried ones today, and I had the same reaction, albeit less severe. So, I'm thinking it's a problem with the brine shrimp in...

Would the reptile heating pads be okay with the plastic critter keepers?

Well, I know he's "just" a VT, but my little George is the most perfect little VT I've ever seen. ;)

wow, those are so cool! I LOVE the blue marble one! Did you ever decide whether you would do one of my George or not? (The purple one with pink and blue fins?)

ooh, I didn't even think of daphnia! Thanks! I'm still trying to figure out how to feed pea to her... For my boys I just put a bit on the end of my finger and then drop it into the tank... they have learned that now and they jump at my finger! But, little Lawan, bless her heart, she is scared...

Well, she's eating just fine, which is good. Problem is, she is SOOO tiny. Too small for the baby pellets even. Definitely too small for bloodworms. So, I got her some flaked food that has a few freeze-dried brine shrimp mixed in. She found a brine shrimp in it once, and now she won't even touch...

I couldn't find any of the things you were talking about, but I got Quick Cure, which is supposed to treat internal parasites as well. I hope it works for her. Thanks for the help. :)
