Yanagi Posted June 22, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 22, 2010 Sounds like a nice fishy. I keep telling myself, I don't have room. I don't have room. But I sooo want those dragons! They did have Giants for sale for a while, he probably is for sale otherwise I think they'd put him in one of the display tanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul Posted June 23, 2010 Report Share Posted June 23, 2010 I was in Syd on the weekend, and couldn't help myself with swinging by and having a look. There were some really nice SDs/deltas but I held off buying any seeing as I wouldn't be able to look after him for another few weeks until I'm back home for good. Plus, and a big warning.... I noticed quite a few of these fish had ICH, so take a close look at the fish you bought Julie coz he may need treatment before you add him to a tank with other fish!

fishish Posted June 23, 2010 Report Share Posted June 23, 2010 is that what bettas in a fish shop usually look like when jarred? I live just near Coburg aquarium in Melb, the bettas there kinda just float in their jars looking rather lifeless these ones look much better! but perhaps its just because they're new arrivals?

Yanagi Posted June 23, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 23, 2010 3 were sickish on tuesday, they're being treated with multicure though. The water was green. I don't think the shop's staying warm enough for them with all the people coming in and out. They are doing renovations and planning a new betta section though, so that should be good. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yanagi Posted June 25, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2010 I'm pretty sure it's malachite green + something else. I don't know what exactly. It was just referred to as multicure. I brought home the Red Dragon Plakat!! Even better, he's a HMPK. I couldn't resist the puppy dog eyes he gave me. He would not flare for me in the shop but as soon as I got him in front of a mirror, bam! Big flare! He's so cute. :bighug: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yanagi Posted June 25, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 25, 2010 Thanks. I may end up breeding him, but I don't really have a suitable female right now. Although I do wonder what a red dragon x orange black would give me. Haha, yeah there's quite a few really nice ones I'd have loved to bring home too.. I think I'll have to build some more divided tanks if they keep getting in these super nice ones! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
