Description
My first fish ever, and he's still alive 10 months later. His name is Nasa, originally 'Haiden' but that is someone's middle name and I don't want the wrong people to find this out.His favorite hobbies are staring at me (especially as if I'm an alien declaring war instead of his caretaker), and hiding. Yet he reminds me of myself...defensive and cautious at first, then he warms up and trusts more. Except his memory is short because this happens whenever I re-enter the room. ...so this shot is him when he's gotten used to me.
I hope you can see his personality in this shot.
--
The shadow is from the flash...not deliberate, something I want to eliminate in the future with better lighting.

I love fish, If you put him in a 30 to 50 gallon tank he can get up to 7 inches long it's awesome!
I have a Sailfin Pleco who's a little over a foot and a red parrot/convict cichlid hybrid who's 5 inches

bettas can really get 7 inches long? wow that's amazing.
two of mine are in about 2 gallons each now (and the other in maybe 1 gallon) but 10 is the biggest tank i'm allowed to have where i'm living.

partially black, but definitely dark. I like those ones too. that's why I got him actually - he was the darkest one in the pet store that day!

he's the same one in [link] (if that link doesn't work, hopefully [link] will).
I'm not sure if the links will work for other people because it's a stored deviation
