Here are a few new pics. I want you to know that the female was only in there for taking pictures...

Wow!!! He's beautiful

Very pretty! Bettas are neat fish. I had a maroon one once, but that was way before my Koko days, so we kept it in a vase and did 100% water changes.... I'd like to try my hand at them again in the future.

They are an amazing fish, I highly recommend you try them again.

Absolutely beautiful.

Found out he is a rare variation of the Mustard Gas color!! Very cool!! Not at all a bad pick up for 10$ eh?

wow zowie he is absolutely gorgous mustard gas. Drool. Where did you get him? Did you come up with a name yet?

I got him at a local LFS that I trust. Nah I probably won't name him, I never name my fish.

He is a dilute blue gas, they are actually becoming quite common now. Many people have started to like this color.
Yes, its is a wonderful find for $10. I think I found my purple copper OHM for a similar price.

I didn't know anything about colors when I bought him, I went onto a betta forum and they told me it was a variation of the mustard gas and that is was one that is not very common. I really don't know but I like him.
