Betta Profile: Veiltail
 |
Veiltails are the most common betta tail type. Every fishstore in the world has this kind of betta. Veil tail is a trait… and a very dominant trait – which makes VT’s unfavorable for some breeders. Most betta breeders don’t want to incorporate veiltails in their line. Veiltails are often refered to as “mutts” because of the wide range of colors for the VT’s found in pet stores. In Veiltails the caudel fin rays are not strait and the top rays are shorter than the middle rays, causing the tail to look a little limp.

I have a Betta that looks just like this but its Blue, His name is Fat Man Blue. When I got him 4 years ago he was really big I have never seen any other Betta that big. For the last 5 months he has not ate any food. It looks like his front fins are stringy. Im worried he may be dieing. What should I do??
