Good day my friends,

Yet another post to share some of my collections. Really hope you guys enjoy and feel free to comment in the Chatbox.

Firstly, I nickname this the Ice-cream betta, because his fancy colouration is so "milky", kind of like a flavour mix in ice-creams. Hope you guys get what I am getting at, haha. Colour is better seen "live" though, hard to capture with my poor photography skills.



Next, I am very delighted to find this colour once again, was decently available some years back, but when dragons came, they somehow, became "endangered".

This piece is for sale, check out the stocklist. Gold Halfmoon Plakat!



Next, some of you might have seen him for sale for a moment, some time back. I removed him from the stocklist because he attracted me quite a lot as a giant. This piece is about 3inches long, relatively big, but with amazing deportment which is rare in giants. Big spread and flares at my finger, so decided to keep him, haha.

Tricky on the colouration term, lets just call him Metallic Yellow Fancy Giant, enjoy!



Lastly, saving the best for the last, the highly sort after Black Dragon HMPK! Managed to grab a nice one for myself as it is very difficult to find a good black dragon, at least in my opinion. Definitely a candidate for my breeding projects after my exams.


That's all for now, thanks to all of you for the support in Bettafanism and hope you enjoyed reading this post.

Cheers! :)

My friend's red army

Hello my friends,

As a betta breeder, one of the most challenging colouration of bettas to breed would be reds in my opinion.

If you work towards colour intensity, you tend to have black scaling problem. And when you attempt to get rid of those, you tend to have pinkish irids on their bodies. Thus, to achieve a red betta of close perfection, is a tedious job of minimising both faults. Not to mention the ongoing need to maintain good finnages in the spawns. It is almost impossible by far to eliminate both issues.

After mentioning all these, I'm happy to share with you guys some bettas bred by my friend, Taufiq. Great job and courage to work on the reds!

And I really love this female!

Also, equally challenging is the Yellows, which faces similiar difficulties in getting the optimal colouration. Which Taufiq worked on too. Impressive finanges.


Hope you guys enjoyed this post sharing of my friend/fellow breeder's spawn. By the way, I will be dropping by his place in probably a few weeks' time to get some for Bettafanism's stocklist. So do drop me an SMS if you are interested in Reds and Yellows too so I can roughly gauge the quantity to bring over. Prices will be about $20-30 each.

Cheers! :)
