My Betta Macrostomas displaying in 720p HD VID

**speedie408** · 03-24-2012, 08:54 PM

This morning while I was getting ready to fish out all my fish to rescape my tank, my Betta Macs decide to put on a show. They must have taken the lack of water flow for breeding season lol. I'm pleased to present my male Macs everyone:

Glad you like em.

I'll be setting up a breeding tank for a pair soon. We'll see how it goes.

Gorgeous, but all I can think is:

"Hey, hey check out how big I can open my mouth!"
"Eesh, I've seen it the last dozen times already this month, stop bugging me!"

Nice, nice..
"My mouth is bigger than yours!"

I kept waiting for them to swallow each other.

That's awesome. The music was really contemplative. Although, I bet some human behaviors must seem really odd to fish sometimes.

**speedie408** · 03-25-2012, 01:42 AM

haha Thanks for the comments everyone!

They do have some rather HUGE mouths don't they? hehe

Very Nice Nick!!! One of my favorite fish. I enjoyed around 2:36 there was an Angel that got in the middle of the display. It had a look about him that said, "this isn't my fight" just before he got out of the way.

DesmondTheMoonBear · 03-25-2012, 03:33 AM

Holy crap....awesome fish and amazing tank even though I only saw parts of it.

typo · 03-25-2012, 07:00 AM

that video was incredible!

HiepSTA · 03-25-2012, 07:16 AM

extremely well filmed, what a beautiful fish.

Chlorophile · 03-25-2012, 07:17 AM

That was amazing, did anyone notice how wide they stretched their tails at around 1:30?

astrosag · 03-25-2012, 06:40 PM

Looks like a huge free for all around 2:30 lol.

So these guys don't tear each other apart?
