First Rescue

[Mikaila31]

I brought him home from Petsmart on Tuesday . I noticed him a week and a half ago, when he wasn't looking so good. I waited to see if someone would take him, but every time I went back he was still there. So, in the end I brought him home .

He's perked up a lot since Tuesday and I gave him some bloodworms today, but it took him a few hours before he figured out they were food. He's also started to flare at me, but he hasn't made a bubblenest yet.

It's a little hard to tell from the picture but his body is a darkish blue. And on his bottom fin some of the rays curl at the ends . I might put him up for adoption in a few weeks when he is fully recovered .

With your right care he will turn into a fine young man.

This was the same for me when i bought my CT, i first noticed my LFS a batch of CTs but all of them had sold on their tanks, i went back 4 months later and one was still there in a dirty alge over grown small tank, i asked and they let me have him!!!

This pic was when i fist got him. I have been feeding on Hikari Betta Pellets and it has worked wonders with his finage. Both of my males love this food.

doesnt it feel good to bring home a rescue? i'd rather do that than buy an expensive one.

He's neat! I'm sure his fins will perk up with some TLC! Good going!

He's stunning! If you put him up for adoption I will take him
