Pics of all my Fish *plus a surprise for my sister**RIP Ariel*

Hello everyone! I took some pics of all my fish today and wanted to share them. Alot of them are of Queen. But about two weeks ago I also got two female bettas. I hadn't put any posts about them because I wanted to make sure they would live longer than a week or two, which they have. :) Althought I think one may die very soon because of the other one.

This is Ursela (I named her Ursela for a good reason):

She is the meanest female betta ever! She is killing my other betta named Ariel:

She constantly picks at Ariel's poor tail and attacks her. I think Poor Ariel might die any day now. I would seperate them but the only other tank I have to put Ariel in is the 10 gallon with Queen's babies, and I don't want her to eat the babies. So I don't really know what to do, I was hoping that after awhile Ursela would stop being mean, but she's worse than ever.

Here's some more pics of Ursela and Ariel.

This is Ariel hiding from Ursela:(

And here's Ursela going after Ariel again, you can see her gills flaring out. I thought female bettas were suppose to be nice to each other. I must have got a really grouchy one. If anyone has any ideas I would be happy to hear them cause I think Ariel is going to be gone very soon:(

And here are some pictures of the big momma Queen! Who by the way thought she wasn't all ready big enough, decides to grow more and more now that she is in a 55 gallon lol.

Queen and her buddies. Unfortunately I am probably going to be putting Sir Knight (All orange one) and Duke (short colorful one) in a goldfish pond this summer or spring. The only way I can keep Queen is to get rid of two or three of them because she is soooo big that the tank can barely stay unfoggy with all of them in there. I love Queen so much that I could never put her in the pond. She's my pride and Joy, so I will probably leave Bob(algae eater) and just one other fish in with Queen so that she can keep growing and the tank can stay clean. I may choose to keep SeaKing with her.

Here is Queen and Duke, he's the one that keeps making her lay eggs...he must like something about her ;)

Queen and Sir Knight. Queen has gone all white too. Remember in the older pictures she had lots of orange on her, now she is pretty much all white.

If you only have 2 females together they will fight just like males.5 or more females in tank with lots of hides and plants.Ariel needs to be moved soon.Put her in anything or Ursela will hurt her or kill her.I belong to a betta fourm and they use plastice bins sometimes for there fry or temps or intil they can get a bigger tank.

I've never had any female bettas but one. You should take U out of the tank and if you don't have another tank available right now then at least put her in a bowl. Bettas don't have to have air bubbles so she will be alright. Or, if you have a net put her in one. She is going to kill little A if you just leave them alone! I'd hate for her to die. :( That's what I'd do though just put her in a bowl or a net until you can get another tank or bowl or something to put her in.

Queen is so big! I wish I had made a picture of my fish I use to have. He was bigger than her. He was a koi and he was humongous! His name was Cheeko and I had him for 3 yrs!

I'd love to see some pictures of those baby goldfish if you've got some and it's not too much trouble!? :D

Genny

And here are a couple pictures of Little Guy. Remember when Little Guy accidentally when up my filter and got hurt really bad? Even his tail was sliced to bits and he had some scales shaved off of him..it was awful. Well he's a trooper cause he is all better now!

This is something he does alot, he likes to go in amongst the big full plants and he usually picks food off of them or eats the eggs that are on them from Queen.

Little Guy will be coming to University with me in the fall.

And here's a picture of Queen from September, she turned all white pretty quickly.http://hosting.showthatimage.com/5CC...4152511434.jpg

And last but not least! My sister's present from me! She's been wanting a male betta lately and doesn't have much money, so while I was in town today I got her a very pretty betta and had its tank all set up very nicely.

I took one picture so that my sister could take more later. Here the beautiful guy is:

I hope she likes him! She should be getting home in about an hour or two:D It will be a nice surprise!

Anyways I hope you all liked the pictures!

OKay, I think I might try putting her in the 10 gallon, maybe she won't eat the babies? :confused:

I love seeing Queen she really is a Queen.All your goldies are so beautiful but I think Queen is the prettiest.I bet your sister will love her betta. :) Ariel and Ursela are also very pretty.

does your sister have any extra tanks?

No she doesn't, she has a cray fish but that would definatley eat the betta. So I just put Ariel in the 10 gallon and she isn't going after the babies at all which is good, but she does look like she is on her way out. She is swimming around just using her bottom little fins but her back fin looks stiff, she won't move it:( I hope she makes it.

Thanks everyone about Queen. She certainly is a big fish. She is a little over a foot long and about 3 or 4 inches wide:)

And thanks about my sister's betta too!:D I think she will like it~!

As requested here are a few pics of the babies...they are very small so its hard to get any picture that shows them clearly.

Hehe, thanks! I got those lovely pictures of Bobo and Kishii this morning:)

Nope, she hasn't got it yet...she and my parents had left on a four hour trip to pick up our cousin this morning and should be home soon I hope...I'm starting to get lonely all by myself in the house lol. But at least I have all the animals to keep me company.:)

Ok well... I'll sit here and wait!!!

Yay! My sister just got home and she loves him!:D She already named him and will probably post her own thread about him later so I'll let her do that:)

I'm very glad she liked him:D I got a hug too:D

Very cute, I really like Queen! :)

Gorgeus fishies! I remeber seeing pictures of Queen when you first joined. She doesn't look like the same fish! Still beautiful either way!

I love your female bettas. What size tank are they in? If Ariel survives and they are in a big enough space you might want to get another female. Always have female bettas in odd numbers. :)
