Thanks @scubabravo, was a little worried about him over the weekend as he lay around a lot and didn't do much , but he perked up yesterday afternoon and got a whole lot more active , think he just needed a rest , the water that he was kept in at the lfs was very cold so he prob just needed some time to recover.

@col182, The Crown tail is a beautiful specimen, if you can find a matching female the offspring would be stunning. As for the other two, you will get mystery babies from them. Red is very dominant colour, it will come through in all your babies, mixed into that is the green sheen I can see which shows me that there are mixed lineage in them. They are still beautiful, any fighter is beautiful to me, few are exceptional. It is so difficult to get those these days. Anyway, congrats on your Betta's, enjoy them and look after them well. Tip on Crown tails.... they are prone for fungus and sticky fin, so watch out for that.

The first one is a mustard gas, nice to get that strain as it is a pure strain, if you can get the same color female then you will get all the same color fry. As @Charles mentioned the other 1 will be a wild card in terms of color. But both pretty fish.

Not all chemicals are bad. Without chemicals such as hydrogen and oxygen, for example, there would be no way to make water, a vital ingredient in beer.
