Lookin' good, LVDY!

I don't think people realize how long it can take reds to color up. ESPECIALLY a cambo based red. It was months before mine turned red...

Keep us posted on them!

bettaqueen - June 6, 2007 04:00 PM (GMT)
cool Yeevs. I will take one now if you got one. I have a feeling Suchin is not gonna be with us much longer unfortunately. i think she has glugea which from the website I looked at is uncurable . Nutty says she thinks Suchin is in critical condition. She even quit eating. But I would love to have one these little girls. they are so cute. Sunti is doing great btw and totally grew his tail back out to normal

I thikn the whole lot of them are keepers and they like posing for the camer too it seems :T :WOW:

LoVyDoVy - June 6, 2007 09:43 PM (GMT)
Yes. Most of the girls can be breeders. I have to sellect few for myself in breeding process. Then others will give out to few of you. ^_^
Bettaqueen. I can't give you the breeder females. LOL I will try to sellect one that will not for us to breed. :D Maybe the one with less rays at the caudal. :)

Those are some rich reds! I'm loving that dark dark red one. I'm not into reds, but these are gorgeous! You got the touch, Yeevs!

davenia7 - June 7, 2007 02:51 PM (GMT)
Yeevs, they are cute...
I'd almost give up my black only from now on clause for one of those...
But, sadly... that is my rule from this point forward.

Greentetra - June 7, 2007 03:44 PM (GMT)
:Ohlalala I'm not really into reds, but when I saw these I was like :o :wub: :wub: :wub:

DON'T LIKE REDS??? :rolleyes: How could anyone not like reds???

Red is probably the hardest color to get right - there are so many problems that you can run into: iridescence, dark scales - and to produce a really pure solid red is very difficult. A solid blue is easier to attain - you produce a solid red betta and it's an accomplishment.

Red is absolutely classic in bettas. We Americans are so caught up in the 'new' and trendy - someone advertises the latest black metallic gold mustard purple and we all want it! :OO ...not even realizing that it's probably a cull in the Asian countries.

:OMG: How could anyone not love red bettas???

The black "orchid" is a prime example! :rolleyes:

I just don't like the color red... it's just a personal preference... as far as harder to breed, I admire those that can do it... I just don't care for the color.
That being said, one of my girlie VT "rescues" from wally world is red..
Still, The reds above are beautiful.

Greentetra - June 8, 2007 03:12 PM (GMT)
^Ditto. It's not that I don't like red, it's just not my favorite color for a betta. One of my favorite bettas is red VT from Petsmart. I personally prefer blue, but if everyone loved only blue bettas there would be no variety. ^_^

LoVyDoVy - June 8, 2007 04:53 PM (GMT)
Asian country love red. It bring wealthy and luck to you. It also symbolized energy and power. When Chinese New Year come, you can see everywhere is red. Therefore, the majority is that cultural influence the color. Black in my culture is dead. As orchard color in bettas, those are not the popular color. I remembered when I was a child, when a solid red veiltail came to town, people just pick them up like pet than other colors. ;)

davenia7 - June 8, 2007 05:13 PM (GMT)
Ha! must be the goth influence from my high school days.
I love black. And gray. And blues.
In fish, black and blues.

bettaqueen - June 8, 2007 05:36 PM (GMT)
Sorry Yeevs I did not see your previous post. I definitely will take one now. You know I do not breed so a pet quality one is fine for me. She is just going to get spoiled at my house anyway. you know how I am. Those are my swiming kids. I even got a name picked out for her. Scarlet. do you want me to pm you my address? Just let me know how much I owe you. thanks Yeevs.

Sunburst - June 8, 2007 05:59 PM (GMT)
I love that color red :wub:

bettaqueen - June 11, 2007 11:37 PM (GMT)
