Welcome!

Hello and welcome to my new blog!

My name is Elora, and I am a betta fish fanatic. I currently own 7 bettas, all of which I love very much. On this blog, I will write step-by-step posts about proper betta care, and about what's going on with my own bettas. You see, there are many misconceptions about betta fish, and a lot of people don't know it. This leads to bettas being unintentionally mistreated, and many of these fish live shorter lives for this reason. But with a little guidance, proper betta care can be as easy as pie!

Here are my current bettas:

This is Peach, my orange male veiltail betta. 

This is Winter, my multicolor crown tail female betta.

This is Merlin, my royal blue crown tail male betta.

This is Pi, my wild-type crown tail female betta. This photo was taken when she had fin rot (a fin disease), but she is now cured.

This is Spud, my multicolor baby crown tail betta. I think that he is a male, but I cannot be sure until his fins grow out.

This is Brisinger, my salamander halfmoon male juvenile betta.
This is my newest betta, Forte. He is a metallic silver delta tail male. I adopted him yesterday, knowing he had an eye disease called popeye. (That's why his eyes are swollen and cloudy.) I just bought the medicine needed to treat him, and I plan to start treatment tomorrow. Forte means "loud" in Italian.





I hope you enjoy this blog, and that it helps you on the road to proper betta care!
