    * Introducing my Betta [4 pics]

    I borrowed my grandparents camera so I could show you guys some photos of my new Betta - I've had him a week now. I bought him from Walmart. He didn't eat at all - until Friday, when I bought him some yummy Hikari Bio-Gold pellets!

    He's my first Betta - let alone my first fish.

    He's still nameless though, so suggestions are welcome!

    Very nice looking fish, congrats! He does look very similar to my Atticus Fish (RIP ). I have a new betta as well, but I haven't posted a thread yet.

    I like the name Flare for a betta.

    He is such a gorgeus boy and I love his colors. He also looks a lot like my rip Brandon.
    The only name I can think of right now (due to the weather) is Storm or Stormy.
    Thanks so much Ashley for the siggy!

    Your betta is gorgeous, as all bettas are. I love blue ones, maybe you could name him Blue?

    A handsome boy, looks like my Gulliver at a younger age, now he's getting lighter.

    Hehe, thanks everyone! ^_^

    I decided to name him Livius, in case some of you didn't see the other thread.

    I never noticed a different in his colours from when he was in the cup to now, so maybe he's a happy-go-lucky guy! lol

    Beautiful boy!

    Just a tip: Don't buy from wal mart, their fish are usually unhealthy.

    I actually find my walmart to have a decent supplier. Then again I'm an aquarium hobbiest and can easily deal with most fish illnesses I come across. I've really got little problem with walmart supplying fish.

    My wal mart is the worse. Not to be mean, but a mentally handicap guy runs the pet section..there is always dead fish over there. I try not to support them.

    He's a stunning beautiful blue!

    Glad he has a nice home where he won't be looked at and picked up all the time like at Wal-mart.
