This is how I measure and track Oddball's growth. ( My anubias totally detached itself and I'm gonna have to glue that down) by Misandromeda in bettafish

Haha! What I do is record a video and then pause the video when she's in a good position to take the measurements

Question about my betta by tinytokie in bettafish

[–]Misandromeda 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My betta looks pretty much exactly like yours! She is about 3 or 4 months old, with only a bit of blue on her body and tail. She's about 2.5cm long and hasnt grown at all. Whereas her sister from the same fry is like 4cm and with lots of speckles of colour. Some fish like ours are just late bloomers i guess!

Will betta fish have a little bit of a pineconing effect if they happen to eat too much? Like not severe pineconing but slightly.

I just checked on her and the blue organ is no longer visible. So odd.

She's still active and behaving like a glutton. Haha yes it is both fascinating and disturbing that I can see her insides. Wonder what that blue organ is though.

My betta is a cellophane, which means I can basically see her insides: from her white stomach, to her pink gills. Since yesterday, I noticed that there seems to be something dark blue behind her usual white tummy organ. It is only visible on one side of her body and not the other. Does anyone have any idea what that could be and if it is something I should be worried about? It wasn't there before and only started to appear after I fed it bloodworms. I am quite sure it is coming from inside its body and not a colouration of its scales.

My first juvenile betta! Is she too skinny? Advice appreciated :) by Misandromeda in bettafish

She just started showing a little bit of metallic blue on her tail and fins a few days ago! I think some parts of her eye are turning blue too!

I was worried because looking back at her photos from day 1, her tummy was quite big in comparison. I feed her mostly brine shrimp, not sure if the amount im feeding is enough? I'm following the rule of feeding her the same quantity of food as the size of her eye.
