Male Betta = Felix
Red Female Betta = Miss Scarlet (RIP died yesterday)
Black/Blue Female Betta = Squirt (small but with a vicious streak it turned out)

All have personalities and deserve a name ;-)

Just thought you might want to know even researchers will name their fish However only one's with definite personalities and/or distinct markings get names (I think I am caring for ~65 sturgeon and ~19 chiclids and 15 shasta trout at the moment)

Sturgeon- Thurbin,Moses,Rocky,Diver
Trout- Stout, Aimes, Alma,Heleman, Splash
Bacardi chiclid- Cheat
L.B. hybrid- Amymeriah,Pete
