The Amazing (Exasperating) Color-Changing Betta

[Cyberra]

Echo's color seems to have stabilized for the moment. She's white from jaws to the base of her dorsal fin, then purple from dorsal to the base of her tail. It's a rather interesting look, and the break between white and purple is nearly a perfectly straight line. Will get pictures when she decides to hold still long enough for me to take them.

Finally got a picture of Echo. Her color seems to have stabilized as this...

Pretty.

I do hope it's just a normal variation and not due to stress.

I found this article on bettas today as I was browsing. About halfway down it says some interesting things about marble bettas.

"MARBLE: Marble Betta's are now becoming more, and more common. They usually have a colouring of blue or red with a pale base. A marble Betta has uneven patterns all over their body. They can be one colour one week, another the next week. As they age, they tend to slow down colour changing."

For the moment she's settled as half white and half purple. It's certainly an interesting look.

Neat! Like a Purple Boesmani Betta, lol.

Great pic!
