A Few New Betta Males

Just got these beauties yesturday

This first one is a MG Black Lace HM male he's only three months old.


The second one is a Multi Green MG HM male this guy is 1 year old

Very nice!
Whats the MG stand for?

The MG stands for Mustard Gas meaning they have a little yellow in them.

That one was a multi show winner last year.

wow mustard gas, the names people come up with
The young guy is my favorite of the 2, he has great potential!

Yes Fern he does look great. I have a little female I'm going to breed him to but they both have to get a little older. In the mean time I'm starting a breeding with the other one and a blue HM female

Are bettas harder to maintain then other freshwater fish? What is so great about a betta? asking cause I may want to get some bettas for one of my empty tanks! And if I do which ones are the best to get and can they be in tanks with other freshwater fish?

i luv my bettas!!!! they r great i hav 13 females a 7 males. all my kids hav huge personality, my multi likes to watch me sleep, my white one likes to play finger tag. my other 3 i just got a few days ago but theyr a bit goofy my sky hawk ohm is a bit upset of the tranfer but a gorgeous male that karen sold me. i got a black melano and blue mg, multi, white, a crowntail and a veiltail i hav 13 girls in my 55, 5 r veiltail, 1 crowntail, 7 halfmoons and they r with my other community fish. my males r in separate tanks most r in 10 gallons and some r in 1.5g. lol i need to update my stock list.


besides that, they r gorgeous whisper, i luv both of the boys, i cant wait to breed my multi and my white boy. my white boy stayed white and hes got a rose purple female to breed with, i wonder wat im goin to get from them lol. but once i do u can hav a white baby from them. my black melano is from ur line whisper!!! i luv ur black lace i would luv to see his babies wen he is big enough. keep sending pics of ur kids!!!!

Those Betta's are Beautiful!!!!!

What is so great about a betta?
Do you have eyes? Can you see these pictures and my avatar? Bettas are Elegant, Graceful, Gorgeous. They are one of the most beautiful fish there is............With that said more then one female can be kept together. They can be kept in a community tank as long as there are not aggressive fish in with them. Same with the males but only one male. Males can not be kept together. Males and females can not be kept together unless you are breeding them.

I meant no offense by asking what was so great about bettas. I guess I was looking for an answer that was so great it would make me want to go out n buy me one.
I would love to add them to my community tank of 2 angels, 2 dwarf gouramis and a pleco.

angels my be a bit agressive with them and may bite their fins if its a male and if u do get a betta go with mutiple girls as they will school together thats wat my girls do they stay together but breakfast and dinner time beware they may bite lol not to hard since their little bitters!!! no worries they r very gorgeous if u do want a male u can get him a 1.5 at walmart with everything for 20 bucks and put a male in their and they r happy forever. i think if i could buy more bettas i would but i hav to stop at some point with 7 males and 13 females lol my 55 is running with females, .if i wer u i would get the 1.5 and get whispers or karens halfmoon males then see if u like him and if not, then iu will hav no problem for someone to take the boy off ur hands.

How do you tell if they are whispers or half moons?

whipser is the lady that started this thread , she may hav some males and whisper only breeds halfmoon. karen does to at least that wat i know she does, she sells her betta on aquabid.com, she got a few up right now. her name on aquabid is martinismommy she got a few of nice boys. she does live in cali so u hav to ship them but its worth the price of fish and shipping, bettas r the best fish i hav right now. i sort of collect them .

wow! $20.00 and up for a betta? thats insane! i seen them for like $2.00 in LFS. Then again what do I know about bettas?

the ones at the lfs r old and r not show quality, ive spent for 3 males and a female including shipping 135 dollars, u can get a male at the local fish store but wen i want something i want something good im picky bout that. i luv my bettas ive spent more on them than on myself but they r goreous and so nice to look at. ask whisper she may giv u a better deal for show quality bettas. i just dont know if she has any but ask her. ive probably sepnt over 300 dollars on my bettas.

So what other types of fish can be kept with a male betta?

communtiy fish mainly like i hav swordtails mollys and loaches in my tank and my girls r happy as can be i had a balloon molly with my white one for a bit until i got another tank and he was happy with her in there. they r like normal communtiy fish just really pretty. and they dont need alot of room just enough to move around even with that some dont like my overhalfmoon didnt like his 10 gallon bc it wat to big so i move him in th 1.5 and hes been happier but hes used to a small tank since he is older. my young ones r happy with their 10 gallon bc they lived in it for so long.

BL your angels and gour will be way to aggressive for a Betta. They would have fun nippy the fins off. Smaller community fish are good though. I'm at work right now bit when I get home I will send you some pictures. I have a Blue BHM ( butterfly Half Moon) Butterfly means white on the fin edges.and a nice Marble both males. I also have a few females.

Here are the pictures of some Bettas. Males are $10.00 each, Females are $8.00 each + $7.50 shipping.
