Huh. I saw a betta the other day at the pet store and his body size was just massive! Especially compared to the other bettas around him. Other than that, though, he looked like a regular veiltail. Has anyone ever seen bettas like this?

Was he a veiltail? They actually sell giant bettas. They look like plakats but are 6 or 7 times as big. Sometimes veiltails just get big though. A girl I babysit used to have a huge veiltail.

I had a female plakat that was store bought and about 3 times larger than my other betta.

yup there is such a thing. Sometimes you can find them on Aquabid. However the last one I saw on there , the guy wanted $200 for it.

I have 2 VTs that are just huge. Everytime my sister comes over, it's the first thing she mentions. I also have 2 that are small compared to the big ones. I think it is just normal.
