I'm thinking the dark blue one might actually be a rose tail betta, given the fringed edges on his tail.

Need a better pic of his tail to be sure, though. If he is a rose tail, I'm guessing he's probably a HM too - would that be right? I've heard those guys need a bit of extra care, what with their huge fins and all.

Need a better look at his tail to confirm. If he's a rose tail, he's probably a HM too, and those guys require extra care due to their massive fins and potential issues. Rosetail betta - the downside of beauty | Aquariadise

I've got a rose tail myself. https://i.imgur.com/xUjl973.jpg

My boy looks similar to the one in the article. I'll try to get a good pic of his tail tomorrow, he's super camera-shy, so getting any pics is a challenge.

I recall that concept not exactly taking off, did it?

I knew that "loan" concept was never going to work.
