Does My Betta Look Okay?

[plumwd]

I just bought a crowntail betta yesterday, he seems super healthy and very feisty. He's in a 5 gallon aquarium and seems to be loving it.

I posted a pic on Facebook because he's beautiful (to me) and someone suggested that me may have fin rot, but I think he's supposed to look like this. I don't know all that much about bettas, so would love some confirmation.

Is there a pic? If so I can't see it...

Fixed them, used the wrong link from Instagram.

Never mind they loaded

He's beautiful. I can't see any rot but who knows

Beautiful Crowntail. He looks good to me. If the ends of his fins start to fray or get fuzzy then I would be worried but he looks ok to me. Often they come from horrible conditions anyway so if there is something starting it should clear up now that he's in a better environment.

I think he looks great too, but since I don't know his history I wasn't sure. He is really digging his bigger space.

Very nice betta. He looks super healthy to me. No fin rot from what I can see

Betta looks great! Like my shirt?!?

Your beta looks perfectly healthy. Whoever said he has fin rot has probably never seen a crowntail beta before and thinks he is a half moon with fin rot.

Yes! Awesome shirt!

Hilarious! I've only lived here about 6 months. Are you a snowbird?

 

[Brookster123]

No my dad lives out there, he helped with the clean up..

From the last hurricane I'm assuming? I don't really know much about the history of this area. We moved here because my husband is working at the Port St. Lucie Nuclear Plant..

im not sure, it's just really polluted, I believe it had something to do with flushing out lake okeechobee and Kissimmee ??
