New Betta

[Mantango]

Hi,

I recently acquired this veil tail betta, he's a lovely red colour with a turquoise blue. Can anyone ID this colour combination? A couple of photos: not easy to catch him!

thanks.

Hi

Nice colours He is a Veiltail, but looks like he's had damage to his fins. Either from nipping or fin rot. Make sure you keep his water clean and the temp up around 27/28 degrees.

Thanks for replies, he's currently at 27c and yes tail is a bit worse for wear. I suspect fin nipping as it doesn't look infected but treating him with finrot/fungus treatment anyway as a precaution.
