I wanted to take new pics of my bettas to show you all :) But I only have Loki and Splodge for now, as I was gonna take the rest today but I have done my back in when changing the water in my 210 litre :( My own fault. I must have been slightly twisted cos when I stood on tiptoes to pour water in, cos I am a little too small :p somthing kinda popped. I really need to wear heels when i am filling up this tank! :S
Anyway, as there are only 2 bettas for now, I have decided to show you my favourite fish of all, Mr Plec - he is soooooo funny. And also I got a nice pic of my gourami, he is very pretty.
More betta pics in a few days hopefully.......

They are all absolutely beautiful Tibby! Splodge looks like he has flames on his gill fins hehe!
 
Hehe these naughty little bettas had us all fooled for a while! Is Zannah similar in colour? Loki does shimmer blue/green in the right light too.
The plec is an L001 I believe - golden spot. I got him when he was tiny and stupid, lol.... got a big tank especially for him when I realised he was gonna grow to be a monster! he is about 6-7 inches long in the body, and about 2.5 inches wide at the head! He was only about 2 inches long in all when i first bought him! :p
 
Awwww little Loki.....the deceptive little minx, but just look at that anal fin :crazy:

And WOW that is an impressive looking Plec!!!!
 
I know, her anal fin is HUGE! Loki is still very happy in her tank with platies, swords and bristlenose :)
Mr plec is quite a looker, ain't he? :p My mum thinks he is scary, lol.
 
I love the pictures :) but that plec is awesome! I've always adored plecos but dont have any tanks that are big enough to house one.
 
Lol, two of the girls I got from Netty have turned into gorgeous boys and I have a he/she from Daz that I don't think I'll ever quite work out until I try to spawn it! I never really got how hard it would be to sex them, getting them from shops, they are mostly always full grown and so you know straight away. I'm dreading having to sex my fry :lol:
 
Hi, tibby25731,
sorry to hear about your back and I do hope you have a good chiropractor - I wouldn't be walking without one, so I can empathize.
With any luck you'll be better soon.

All your fish are beautiful - not only your pretty bettas - and that plec is really spectacular.
The Gourami has just amazing colour as well.
Great pics - they seem clear even on my 'puter, which isn't awully good at picture reproduction.
Can't wait to see more.
Splodge looks healthy enough, from what I can see, assuming those are waterspots on the glass, so hope he's doing OK, and all is going as well or better than can be expected.
 
great shots of the bettas.

:( im sad... your plec looks FAKE compared to mine. what an excellent shot. My poor pleco always has ripped fins..... shame they are one of the truly "compatible" tank m8s to an Oscar. .... he has outgrown my oscar and still gets beat up when the lights are on.

what kind of gourami is that?
 
Thanks everyone! ReMz, the gourami is a pearl. He is amazing isn't he? I love the orange under his 'chin'. And my beautiful plec got beaten up by a girl krib when she was breeding :p and his fins kept being ripped - however they grow back in like 24 hours, it is amazing! Nobody beats him up now :)
My back is a little better today, thankfully. I can actually move without wincing! Think I have just strained or pulled a muscle - unfortunately it is one that gets used for almost any movement I make! Argh. That'll teach me to not carry full buckets correctly.

that is a great looking gourami.

my plec shows fin growth within 24 hours too, but he is getting constant abuse... *sigh*
 
Plecs are magic :p It never fails to amaze me how quickly he regenerates! Does he never fight back? Mine would thrash about and hit the krib with his tail :p
