One of my friend wants to setup a small betta tank, and criteria was white - finally managed to get it.
A half moon white betta, brought it home on Monday and currently its sharing the tank with the sulawesi poso snails.

As of now he is very scared even to a slightest movemement near to his tank, a sudden movement and he goes into hiding.

When I received him, he wasn't in good shape so now getting him back into shape. Once I feel he is back to his health he will move from his foster home to his new home...
His diet includes-
Dried Blood Worms
NLS.

Here are some images as of now will post more once he gets in full glory -

Peeping Tom

Food food food, lets catch it..

Munching on the dried worm

P.S. - Did selective coloring in the images as the back ground was looking blotched..

Very nice..
Flaring pic?

Also, since this is a long finned betta, i think it will be advisable to remove those rocs bro to avoid injuries and fint tear esp..
keep him in IAL and rock salt for a week in case he his new to quarantine..

Sure Ashish, the rocks will be removed, and IAL is already there..
Cant add rock salt as it will be harmful for my poso
