Heehee I can just imagine them talking like Gus, the mouse on Cinderella :lol:

They're too precious :wub:

They're full of themselves, I tell ya's

They flare,flare,flare like crazy. Strutting around their groovy new half gallon bowls and whatnot ^_^

They look so tiny in them :wub:

They ARE chubs and they do love to eat :look:

I love it when they do the little karate chops with their teeny ventrals! Just adorable.

I can just hear them . . . *a la Gus* "Huh-huh-huh-YA!" *karate chop*

See, that's what I mean, happy thread. Not about death and destruction. Thank you, Wuv. Your DTs are so pretty, and they have cheered me up.

Are you implying that these are just like lfs bettas? If not, I see no contradiction

no I mean by the fact that the all white fish has a fault in it's genes causing it to be all white and if you bred from it the offspring would be quite different to each other some might be red others would be white with a patch of red and all breeders should be trying for the most pure strain of betta possible not ramdomly coloured offspring

if i'm not mistaken, isn't isolating the marble coloration finding a pure strain? that's the beauty of a marble - no two look exactly alike!!

wuv, they look awesome!!!!
:wub:

that dorsal???.... :look:

I suppose if you feel the idea of breeding siblings into the ground to get a pure strain is what's "supposed" to be done- then we see things very differently. And you've obviously missed the point of a marble. There is no better choice in the world for that male than that particular female, imo. And she has no fault, she's a cellophane. You must be of the opinion that getting a strain happens in what,the first,the second generation? Do tell me more. Please show me an example of a "pure strain" that didn't have oddities in it for the first few generations.

Thanks for the comments everyone else. I can already foresee the death of this topic.
