I bought Betas a.k.a the magnificent Siamese Fighting fish for my kids for good fortune and fighting spirit. :-)
Always reared these beauties.... extremely hardy (yeah wat a lazy pet owner, I am), brilliant fins and coloration and possesses a vigour and personality not found in most fishes.
They are also highly intelligent . You know they are watchin your every move... scary. LOL
Of course, mine or the ones I gave are no where as beautiful as these.... these two are show -champions and are worth thousands of dollars.
Highly ornate and high maintenance... quite the contrary to what a fighting fish can take and is often subjected to. Haha.
Will I someday keep something like these? Why not.... :-)
-YK named his Red Beta 'Blaze'.
ReplyDelete-HJ named his Blue/Green Beta
'Swifty' .
And it's nice to report that they are beautiful, healthy and well ... thus far. :-)
Today, my own Blue Belle is dead.

-And one for KY too :-) She's been begging me!!! lol
