 Hi  all!
 
 Its  been  a  long  time  since  I  ve  posted  anything  here.  But  finally  I  got  my  betta  today.  I  had  this  tank  up  and  running  without  any  fish  for  almost  a  month.  I  was  waiting  for  my  LFS  for  quite  sometime  to  get  me  a  betta,  but  he  failed  to  deliver.  Due  to  some  reasons  I  was  barred  from  online  purchases.  But  finally  today  I  saw  this  guy  and  thought  what  the  heck!
 
 Heres  a  blue  half  moon(maybe  not,  I  dont  care)  betta,  Balboa!
 
 
 
 Heres  the  place  where  he  will  be  staying:
 
 
 
 Here  is  a  short  video  of  him:
 
             
Link

 
 The  tanks  got  loads  of  mosquito  larvae  and  other  small  critters,  so  the  first  few  days  will  be  great  for  him  Smile  
 This  is  my  first  betta,  would  love  tips  and  comments   Very Happy  
 
 PS:  Soz  bout  over  processed  pics,  my  camera  was  dusty  and  I  noticed  the  tank  walls  were  no  better  after  clicking  the  pics.

 Beautiful  fish  Ashwin  and  I  like  the  tank  decoration  as  well..good  luck  with  him.  Is  the  water  flow  a  little  strong,  as  I  observed  in  the  video?  or  may  be  not..
 
 I  only  hope  he  eats  up  all  the  mosquito  larvae  and  you  dont  have  larvae  hatching  in  your  room   Chuckle

 Thnx,  he  is  in  good  health  right?
 
 I  bought  him  because  he  did  not  have  any  deformities  and  was  actively  flaring  the  other  male  when  the  lights  were  switched  on  at  the  LFS.  This  was  my  first  betta  purchase  so  I  wasnt  pretty  sure  of  what  to  look  for.
 
 And  he  ate  up  all  the  larvae  yesterday,  had  to  get  more  from  from  the  cooler's  tank  Chuckle

 None  yet,  do  you  think  its  a  good  idea  to  get  company?
 And  the  pump,  is  still  looking  for  a  nice  place  to  stay  Smile  
 I  keep  changing  its  place  everyday  to  see  what  suits  best.

 Thank  you  all!
   Smile  
 
 what  will  be  the  best  for  him:  Live  foods  (blood  worms  or  mosquito  larvae)  every  alternates  day,
 or  dried  worms  everyday  with  live  foods  weekly?

 Please  avoid  dry  worms.  Feed  him  hikari  bio  and  live  blood  worms  and  mosquito  larvae  twice  or  thrice  a  week.
