getting to know peach

[squidman]

My friend's recent betta purchase got me hooked again - I'm talking two weeks ago, and now I've got Peach, the koi betta. Seeing her little guy made me crave the experience, and Peach here is the biggest betta I've ever had the pleasure of owning.

His behavior's been pretty unique, especially compared to my past bettas. The guy's not super active - just cruises around at his own pace, unless something catches his eye, then it's game on. First 24 hours with him, he was obsessed with building this massive bubble nest - I mean, the second he hit the tank, he started working on it nonstop. He's loving the planted tank, just lounging on the leaves and swimming through the stems like it's his own little world.

Food-wise, he's a bit of a diva - only eats stuff that moves, so it's been Bug Bites and frozen brine shrimp for now. Flakes and blood worms just aren't doing it for him, unless I try soaking the blood worms, that is. I'm thinking he might be an older betta, maybe even used for breeding, given his size and the whole bubble nest thing. Or maybe I'm just reading too much into it - either way, I'm really fond of the guy and his quirks are pretty endearing.

Peach is a stunning addition to your tank - that vibrant red stripe really makes him pop.

Beautiful indeed, and that red stripe is just the perfect touch. Honestly, I'm not typically drawn to koi bettas, but there's something about him that just caught my eye.

That koi betta is stunning. If he's still building those massive nests, I'd say he's not too old.

He's a real stunner, that Peach - love his unique coloring, especially that pop of red.

Lovely boy. Peach is doing great, still enjoying his tank and being his quirky self.
