Hello all!!! I have been a member of Bettafish.com for a while, but thought i would start posting here as well, as i have heard that the members on this site have better manners than a lot of the members on BF.

My name is Gizmo, and i consider myself addicted to keeping bettas. XD

I dont have pictures of all my kids, but here is a wonderful spam of most of them. :3

The boys:

Artimus- HM black dragon ( currently ill, please send healing thoughts for him)




Zale- DT marble dragon (spawn brother to Artimus)




Miraz- HMPK multi dragon




Saga- DbT cellophane marble




Halt- DT marble




Jose- VT multi




Grizzly- VT multi/marble




Splatter- VT dalmation




(The girls will come in the next post. Well most of them anyway. )

Thanks! :3

I would really like to breed, but i dont have the money to start something up like that. XD If i were to breed any of my bettas, it would certainly be Artimus and Babs, and i was thinking of seeing what i would get from Saga and Melody... But as they are both double tails, i would be risking deformities..

Very true!If you ever do breed those two let me know I may by a sibling pr from you lol.

I have tried so hard to get out of domestics and focus on wilds but beautiful fish like that,it is very hard to keep to that!
