Yes! He's beautiful but he almost looks like a female. I've had a female with an Anal fin that long.

 

[lilfishie]

He's defo Male, you sure yours isn't i've had 2 Males brought as Females

 

[fuzzynicki]

You already know I love 'em! Magic and Shadow,- both stunners! I can't believe how much Shadow has changed since her first photos. To think she wasn't picked by either of us as a first choice. She deserved to be


Davros has changed since I first got him. He had white on both sides. This has now changed to a turquoise/blue

Davros July '11

Davros August '11

Thanks Siobhan! Ah bless Meeko lol. I think they are all in a state of permanent confusion,- not knowing what colour to change to next!

Waffle

 

[fuzzynicki]

They are all stunners Vicki,- before and after. Waffle and Lippy were my favs on bettaboys site Gilbert is exactly what I would have bought if he'd have been available when I was looking for a boy for my kitchen tank. The way they change is amazing! Goodness knows what all your fry will look like in the end!

 

[sausagewinkle]

Im sure waffle is a little less black now as well

 

[Gavo]
