Down with Betta viral fever (update on pg 2)
Hi Friends,
I recently bought some bettas. So, thought of sharing their pics - I really miss not having a SLR
Specs:
Tank - 9 inch cube with a 25 watt heater (each) set at 25 C. They have styrofoam on four sides to protect from rapid heat loss.
Substrate - white sand (50% fresh + 50% from a goldfish tank)
Food - tetra bits and dried blood worm
I wanted to give a bit of hard-scape to each of the tanks - let me know how I faired

The dumbo/elephant ear/big ear HMPK (there is some debate in the betta community that dumbo is not the same as big ear)

A juvenile dragon HMPK ( this scape is not yet complete but I love this betta- he flares a lot)
Apart from these, I also have copper HM & HMPK (one each) females. Will post their pics later.

Re: Down with Betta viral fever :)
Kesheva, you have got very beautiful fishes.
Add some almond leaves in both the setups.
From where have you get white rocks with brown patterns? I have 2-3 rocks of this type and want to buy 5-6 bigger rocks of this type for my new planted tank.

Will the substrate make the water hard? Bettas will prefer softer water.

Re: Down with Betta viral fever :)
Thanks all
@ Abhishek - I will try to post a better pic
@ Rajeev (Scorpio - sorry if I am relating the wrong name) - I picked the rocks from a LFS 1-2 years ago. He only had it in small packets.
On the leaves - - are almond and banana the only choice? I am wondering if I can add other kind of leaves as well. basically something more smaller in size.
@ Bappa - Firstly, I need to thank you for the crypts you shared with Vrijendra that he was kind enough to share with me. I have absolutely no idea how the substrate will react. But that is a good point. I have moved the bettas to this tank yesterday only. I am planning to do water changes every 7 days (actually more frequently for the first month i.e. every third day so that chemicals/toxins don't build up). I will keep a close eye on the hardness.
