The Amber Dragon

[Cyberra]

For the last couple of months, I've been trying to get a dragon betta. When the August order from Singapore arrived at the lfs, there were no bettas included. September's order was also betta-less. October's order arrived yesterday, and with it came not one but two dragon bettas. I went in today to pick out one of the two.

Meet Amber ^_^





When I picked him out I thought he was a steel blue in color, or close to black, with a bluish sheen to the thicker scales on his back and sides. He soon turned out to be an amber golden-brown in color, with lighter amber fins and blue eyes. He's a delta tail ^_^

Amber's also a spunky little fellow. All my other bettas have taken days to warm up to me. Amber is already out and finning, trying to bite his own reflection. He is all over his new tank.

Thos are great fins for a dragon scale. Have fun with him!

You always manage to find the sweetest looking Bettas; he's a keeper

He's beautiful! I swear, every time I look at your pics it makes me want to run out and get myself a betta! Now if I can just convince my hubby to let me get another tank...

Beautiful! Might be worthwhile trying to breed him.

Ooo! I thought dragons couldnt have large fins. Now i have to find one like this at my LFS next time i go in...

^_^ New Pics! Much fluffage here

If dragons can't have large fins, I don't think Red Amber here got that particular memo XD

I thought he was a delta tail, but after seeing those fins fully fluffed he looks more like a round tail. What do you guys think?

[ekfishlover2011]

Yea, i agree, round tail. I love his eyes. My first betta was a blood red halfmoon with those same color eyes. I loved them so much... lol.
