Lolita's new home

[jols]

Alrighty My home-buying today in LaCrosse was a success I got Lolita a few smaller plants, and I bought her little cave yesterday in Decorah. Now she's swimmn' about all happy and stuff.

Theeeeeen, me, as I stare at my fish....start to notice Fatima's tail looks different than Lolitas. I tried for 10 min. or more to get Fatima to cooperate, which finally worked. I gave her an extra chunk of food because of all the stress she was under having her picture taken multiple times

I'm wondering if Fatima is a crowntail female or a comb-tail. You will see the difference in the tails...Lolita's is smooth on the edges, Fatima has little 'spokes'

Now for pictures!

Now Tail shots...

Fatima:

Fatima is a crowntail. Very nice.

Lolita looks just like my Serena. I love the mix of colors.

Indeed

Cute tanks. I always like bubbles on the side after changing the tank

My goodness! Then I got a steal w/ my dear lil' Fatima...she was a *whispers* Walmart baby.. My very first female betta girl too. and such a little 'tude she has too!

My boyfriend's sister, Sarah, bought me Lolita. For a bit I was 'babysitting' her goldfish she didn't want anymore...but then decided she did again. She felt bad as my last gf died the day before she took hers back, and wanted to get me a new fish. I said a female betta would be nice, ans she had a tough time as there was only 3 left. Thankfully I found out the night I got her *on the forum* that she's full of eggs As long as it's that, I'm completely happy w/ her *was worried about dropsy, etc.*

She has very interesting color, green shimmer on her body in some spots *she looks somewhat 'dull' in the body still, but I'm giving her a month or so to recuperate from 'da cup' so to say...and I didn't notice she had blue until I turned the light on in her tank after I got it set up. I knew she definatly had red tho. Just a wonderful menagerie of colors

*sorry I ramble so much, I'm a bit on the tired side *

Man, I talk to much and type slow right now

Thanks Seahorse I sure do love them bubbles too! *starts singing tiny bubbles*

Fatima is a crowntail. Very nice.

I dunno, looks like a comb to me... crowntails usually have longer rays than that.
Nonetheless, they're both beautiful little girlies
I love their names, too

Well, whatever Fatima is,I still love her I knew after looking at Lolita she wasn't just a plain veil. I didn't have any other girlies to compare her with.

Thanks on the names, I really don't know what posesses me to use such 'exotic' names. Maybe because I know I cannot name my own children those names when I do decide to have kids lol
Bill thinks I'm impeccebly weird, but he loves it.

Edited because after I read it again, I thought I sounded incomplete in first sentence

I'm bumping this in hopes of getting a few more opinions on Fatima, whether she is a crown tail or comb tail. I've had a couple replies, 2 for crown, one for comb. I just want to make sure I find out what she really is, as that I don't look dumb saying what she is, and find out she isn't.
