I'm getting a BETTA myself, it's a female has hasn't much colour so nobody wanted it :-( It's a pale pink.. spotted with white, perfectly healthy, i guess people pick the bright colour ones! I fell in love with it, when i saw it today.. It was soo sad. It was with some tetras and really gets along with them.. apparently it thinks it is one already! And it's only been with them a month or so!
