new betta!

i picked up a sweet little guy today who i'm looking forward to seeing grow and change! i feel like he's going to end up doing a color switch on me sooner or later haha




he's so chill and curious, very calmly, tentatively investigating his new tank. meanwhile my other guy is still off flaring at the plants he's had in his tank for ages lol, no chill at all. i love betta personalities so much.

his tank is currently kind of an eyesore but we'll get there eventually! i'm working on getting some more clippings from my established tank to grow roots so i can plant them here - i really don't like the look of his fake ones :p aaand his LED light hood should be here in a few days!
(also can you believe i purchased his tank/stand plus all the accessories, filter + replacement cartridges, heater, etc - basically everything besides the gravel - for only $45? i'm still kind of hyped about that deal)


here's my other betta, Beau's, tank (minus some dwarf hairgrass i recently added), i'm hoping to get the natural kinda vibe his tank as going on into the little guys. i'll have owned Beau for a year on the 31st i believe, he's such a grumpy dude but i love him haha

also i'm open to some name suggestions for him! i thought i wanted a B name to go along with Beau, but i'm not finding any that seem to fit, so feel free to suggest any that you feel suit him :D
aaand feel free to share your own betta pictures if you'd like!

update picture because he's doing so well and already seems more vibrant in color ♥

Aww he is cute, I saw a blue one I really wanted recently, but I already have two fish (beta and goldfish) so I don't think I can handle a third. Also I have that same skull thing and my Betta loves to hide in it XD

He's lovely! I've never owned fish but Bettas seem so elegant. c:

!! He's gorgeous! It looks like he might start turning black, super awesome!
I used to own 6 bettas before I moved, they're awesome little creatures!
