Will move to scraps in a bit. The male is collecting eggs in this, you can see one floating down right next to him. The female is fine, they just typically act a little stunned after the wrap.
This male is a halfmoon, P-3, and he's kind of a weirdo. He actually would do the half curl-wrap in his 'jar' at the female, sink, and then seemed to try to figure out what she thought. He's a good boy, even if he isn't super fast at picking up eggs. Now so long as he doesn't eat the eggs, we'll have fry here in a few days.
I had washed this tank a couple days ago, hence the water marks. x.x We currently do not have paper towels.

All HMs? :) I've got a little red CT boy. He's adorable, but apparently decided last night that he needed to rip his caudal fin to the base on some unknown protrusion. :| I'll note here - I filed down everything I've put in his tank to ensure there were no sharp edges. Luckily it seems overnight he's healed about 1/4 of the way. c.c Magical fishie.
Yep, except for one veil tail boy. I ended up getting 10 males from a breeder on FB when he was doing a promotional auction. All HMs in red, red/blue, salamander, and red-green metallic weirdness, butterfly mostly. Breeder threw in a couple of females for me. So, lots of fish!
Well, sometimes they'll blow a fin when flaring. Bettas do heal pretty quick if conditions are right.

I wasn't flaring him at the time (I flare him to check him over, make sure there's no weirdness going on), I just sort of noticed it when I went to turn off his lamp for the day, and was like "... hey, wtf, what did you DO Sputnik?!"
I suppose he could have been flaring on his own, but he's generally a laid back fish. He likes watching me look at girls on AquaBid.
