Showing Bettas
There is nothing I love more in this hobby than to breed bettas, watch them grow into real show fish, and then find them winning prizes. I of course started to breed bettas because their genetics are interesting...but I did not anticipate the thrill of line-breeding your fish only to have them succeed at shows. A true show fish is a splendor to behold (pun intended!)
I hope that you find the How to Send Bettas to a Show page informative and helpful. Sending fish to a show is a thrilling experience and helps develop your breeding program towards a standard of perfection. That said, standards change, and don't be afraid of sending your favorite forms that are NOT recognized in the standard into the variations class! This is how the hobby keeps moving forward.
The Show Reports section is where I log all of the shows that I go to. I try to take as many pictures as I can, but helping at a show is often hectic! It is here that I also display my personal show results.
