Orangies have arrived!

[juliethegr8t]

Yey for the orangies, and yey for wuv!! They made it safe and sound! I am posting a few pics for Kelly and Tuesday, to show them the babies' new homes. Here is their current situation. They are on my dresser next to the falx. Female on the left, male on the right. No plants yet, because I am broke from buying their tanks and hidey pots.

Congrats baby!

Here is the gal. Kelly, you weren't kidding when you said they are hard to photograph - especially the females! They are very pearly, and don't show up well. Here is the best shot of my gal so far. They're still pale from their journey, but obviously beautiful anyways.

The male isn't doing as well as the girl, but he's still ok. He is mostly hanging out laying on the bottom, but I can't blame him - the trip probably was probably not the smoothest in the world. He's so beautiful, I can't wait till he colors up.

Congrats Julie!!!

The female looks great!!! The male looks a little beat Tuesday said "It's probably from all that spinning " Poor little guy. Thanks for showing us,Julie I'm glad they made it safe but I won't be satisfied until the male perks up to his usual self.

But it kind of cracks me up to see him lying around like that, it's exactly what his father does!! Allll the time he lounges then just pops up out of nowhere and goes on a flare spree.

 

[juliethegr8t]

Hmmmm.... maybe he's going to be like his father, because that is exactly what he is doing right now.

He still seems to be having trouble, it looks like his tail is weighing him down, which seems like it's probably swimbladder. It could be much worse, I'll just keep his water level down for a bit and keep feeding him nice foods.


Dolores - They're very small. Maybe an inch and a half with tail? I'm horrible at guessing lengths. )

 

[wuvmybetta]

Not his swimbladder

I think some rest will do him wonders, last night was the biggest day of his young,little life.
