granted i am not much of a betta expert, expiecally compared to you you and bronzcat, but it looks like my little rayne. i had the same trouble too but i am not convinced rayne is a little girl and a flirt.
 
the belly makes it look like a girl, but the vents makes it look boyish to me. only time will tell. stunning fish though either way.
 
well. it's official. you have a ninja betta.

i would have said male as well :S
 
Body shape is female and she has a white dot to boot (not always a sure sign but still) and ventrals not really that long but I've got a girly who has long vents, but lovely finnage shape.

Lovely breeding project you have now 1 male to 2 females LOL.
 
well i must admit she did look male for a long time but now she defo looks female to me, did you feed microworms for this lot?
 
Hi
Its only in the last week that her body shape hs changed, probably cus she's next to Taro in a divided tank. Before that she was pretty flat on the belly :good: The ovi spot only enlarged yesterday, before that it was tiny just like most other juvi boys :good:

Oh.......and she's got a full flare :crazy: :crazy:

This spawn was fed primarily on microworm initially, which I believe has attributed to the very long ventrils and anal fins. This girls vents are comparable to my PK Diesel's vents, and he is deffo all male :lol: She deffo didn't get the long fins from mum, cus she has quite short ones.

Oh well.....its all fun anyway :good: :lol: :good:
 
she looks exactly like my rt that I cant figure out if its male or female. but slightly more girly look to the body. I dunno she is a super pretty fish, but I think id stay away from the mcs.
 
Yep......we're staying off the microworm now. I still have it as a back up incase the brine shrimp don't hatch for some reason. Our last 2 recent spawns we used vinegar eels and they seemed to do much better on that as we haven't lost nearly as many fry in the first 2 weeks as we have with previous spawns :good:

The other thing which led us to believe she was a boy was this :lol:
