Well, the other day I was at the pet store and seeing the display of bettas kept in their tiny containers, just had to save one (wish I could have saved the whole lot LoL!) so I got a new little girl!! She is really pretty, a beautiful blue (even though half the time she looks greenish in photos) with pink accents and small speckles on her fins (hard to tell in photos though LoL). Anyone know what kind of color she'd be classified under?
I just couldn't resist! heartpump.gif

She looks similar to my Stormy, except your girl's eyes are more red and mine are more brown.

She is considered blue/green. She will probably change colors between those two back and forth. That's what Stormy does. When I brought her home she was deep royal blue. She gradually lightened up, went leaf green for a couple weeks and now she's more of a shimmery rainbow teal and she is constantly changing color. Does yours have the shimmery purple between the rays of her caudal fin?

You should name her Saphire smile.gif

She is a multi color because she has red wash, blue and green. Lovely VT. She reminds me of my girl but she is only blue with red wash.

biggrin.gif Thanks everyone!!!

Here's a pic of her when I first brought her home... you can see the speckles on her fins (they're mainly on her caudal and dorsal fins) a bit better although I must say it's still not a very good photo LoL... Most of my pics of her turned out terrible anyways! The shot I first posted was very lucky wink.gif out of over fifty pics that's the only one that turned out good biggrin.gif
