Yeh, thats why we didn't list him as PK cus we thought he may develop further. Keep your eye on his fins because we have quite a few from that spawn turning FT,RT and OHM thumbup the three keepers we posted pics of are his brothers :D

his fins have gone almost see-through on the ends??? any ideas what this could be?

A Mask is an expanse of black over the face and head of the betta, which contrasts the body colour.

I think i know what you mean about the changing colour. He's still growing so will probably go through a few changes of colours:)

Can you please start a new thread on this issue. Its not nice for the OP to have another member jump the thread with a topic about another fish.

Thanks.
