My New Beautiful Babies!

[haleystropicalfish]

YAY! I've been waiting since the saturday before last to get my bettas, and their finally here! I got 3 females and 2 males, and they are all just gorgeous! I was instantly in love, and I'm sure you will be to.
I need help with names though, will you all give me a hand? I'll post a pic of each and a description so you can get a better idea of what they look like. I have no idea about the personalities yet, and the bettas are all still in their bags, so I'll update with new pictures and more recent observations later. And so we go!

Male 1: Rich, flowing fins and a light shiney tint to his dark red scales. Seems to be slightly aggressive or mabey just freaked out.

Male 2: Dark blue body, large lighter blue fins, almost black head.

Female 1: I accidently didn't get a pic of her *blushes* but she has red tinted fins, getting darker towards the tips, and a very light body, kind of like Sun Pirates new betta, Pearl.

Female 2: Blue fins and body, allot like the male exept shorter fins of course.

Female 3: Full dark red body, like the male exept short fins and a bluish tint to her body.

So what do you guys think??

Congrats on your new babies. From what I can see they look very nice, but I'll need a pic in the tank to get a better idea re. names. Have fun .

I couln't get them very big without being even more blury.

My 3 females are currently in a 10 gallon tank together, they are checking eachother out, but being nice.
Males are both going into seperate 1 gallon containers where they can't see eachother.

Okay, it's the morning after the first night, and all the bettas are alive and eating. One of the females is rather thin, so I need to fatten her up a bit. The one male that was freaking out every time I come near is no much calmer. I got pictures late at night when they were starting to go to sleep, so that they would hold still a little better. Here are the results:

Wow, they are beautiful! In the updated pics, 1st girl maybe Coral. The 2nd female could be Crystal. The 3rd I was thinking Lilly. 4 the 1st male how about Prince or Sun Dance and the 2nd male King .

Hey Haley, you got some nice fish there. So there's 2 boys and 3 girls, hmmmm......maybe for the first fish: ''Flutter''(because his tail) or ''Shocker'' (because he's always freaked out and stuff). For the second fish: ''Sky'' (because his colourful blue body) or ''Raindrop'' (also because of his body). For the third fish: ''Melanie'' (because its sort of a delicate name) or ''Shimmer'' (because of her tinted ruby fins) For the forth fish: ''Aquamarine'' (because of her colour) or ''Oceanna'' (because she's the colour of the ocean) For the last fish: ''Treena'' (because its a pretty name for a pretty fish) or ''Ariel'' (because of her full red body)

Hope you use some of the names!

Bye......oh and 1 more thing did your fish come in the mail or something?.......See ya

To Volleyball: I got them all at the LFS.

The second male has a name! Tecnically my mom payed for him, and she's taking full advantage of owning that fish. She named him Fluffy. Nice huh? And Thanks for the suggestions! Keep them comming! I really like your ideas Sunpirate, but I'm also open to more. And Volleyball, you kind of lost me. Like the names though!

 

[haleystropicalfish]

Okay, I thought about it and they all have names!

Red Female: Ruby
Blue Female: Saphire
Purpleish Female: Coral

Blue/red Male: Fluffy (moms choise )
Red/shiney Male: King

Thanks for all your help!

Now, will you help me out with chosing my first pair to breed?

I'm think eather King and Ruby or Fluffy and Coral. What do you think?
