Meet Thrash

[Shred]

Got him about a month ago but I only just got round to taking a photo. I think he looks fantastic and he has the best personality of any betta I've ever owned! So happy with him

Sorry the photo isn't great I didn't take too long on it.

Anyone hazard a guess at his age? According to the seller he should be 6 months but I think he looks older?

Also I dont know if you can see too well in the photo but his anal and dorsal fins seem to curl at the end, something I've never seen before. Is this anything to be worried about?

he looks amazing

He's magnificent! I see the curling-I think I've read on here before it's just a genetic thing
I see you're in the UK, where did you get him?

 

[Shred]

I got him privately but the seller does post some on ebay, under the name marlee1230.

Thanks for the fin curling info by the way Ellena.

Heres a shot of the tank.

[silverrabbit]

That is an amazing fish!!! His home looks lovely too

 

[Shred]

Thanks guys!

Aw bless. He used to let me feed him by hand, but the other day I needed to give the tank a thorough clean, and needed him out of the tank. This resulted in me chasing him around with the net for a few seconds, something whcih obviously he didn't take kindly now, and he wont let me feed him by hand anymore

He is absolutely stunning and a real beaut! Lovely lovely fish! Congrats on him and the photo - it is good! Shows him in all his wonderful glory! Keep trying by hand he will come round!

Im Jealous!
How many litres is the tank?
betta and tank very nice!

 

[silverrabbit]

I'm sure he'll come round to hand feeding again... perhaps try dangling a bloodworm from your fingers? I bet he won't be able to resist that!

 

[Shred]

The tank is 17 litres Jasmine.

Hehe Silverrabbit you were right, I've never fed him bloodworm before, gobbled it up straight away!

Could anyone guess what sort of age he might be?
