Silver Female

[westernrider2991]

I recently bought a silver female betta from my local pet store. I have looked all over the internet for info on metallic, silver, and even dragon genetics... I can't find anything that tells me what her color is considered, or anything on her genetics. She is solid silver, no other colors. Any ideas on what might cause this?

She sounds like a dragon or Mettalic to me, do you have any pics of her

Try looking up Copper bettas. Copper colouring ranges from a very dark silvery black to a very light silver


Here's one of mine:

This is a picture of her. She's a little torn from the other females, but she seems healthy. In certain lighting, her fins have yellow tint to them
