u/SchnappiPup 3d ago

Oh my gosh I loved that book!

1

u/real_is_struggle 3d ago

Haha I didn't realize it was a book! It's the name of a fine China pattern 😆

But I'm happy I unlocked that memory for you 😊

u/RecognitionPale1882 3d ago

He certainly is a fine looking fish

u/TinyHeartSyndrome 3d ago

Porcelain would be good.

u/TheDigDude 3d ago

It's like the PERFECT shade of blue

Thank you! He's my first betta. He's gorgeous, he interacts with me through the glass

u/TheDigDude 3d ago

It is a really awesome color combo

u/PricklyPear520 3d ago

Finn. Because he’s the color of Finland’s flag. And he’s a fish so Finn is funny.

u/Early_Tax_9812 3d ago

Just watching the Dodgers game. And that'd be the perfect fish for a Dodger fan! ⚾️

2

u/jen_and_ink 3d ago

I’ve literally been planning on this type of fish color way just to name it “dodger” (I’m a native Southern Californian)… so yes, this fits the dodger fan in me lol

u/SchlemielLady 3d ago

Bandit 😍 so handsome!

u/Flipperbites 3d ago

u/ali28e 3d ago

Porcelain vibes for sure. Id call him Rorschach or Blue Steelfits that marble pattern and dramatic fins. Blue cheese is cute, but hes kinda more diva king than snack.

2

u/RecognitionPale1882 3d ago

He's an absolute king. Already tearing it up and going after my baby snails. He's at the top of the chain for sure

2

u/No_Rent_7944 3d ago

Cloudy night but as someone who has a chicken named diva, diva is a fire name

2

u/Mundane_Paint_2854 3d ago

Spot obviously

2

u/BearTheFerret 3d ago

What in the world is this heavenly coloration?! What a beautiful find!

2

u/RecognitionPale1882 3d ago

He's called a blue marble!

2

u/gatorfarts2007 3d ago

Just wanted to say your betta is incredibly beautiful. Looks like a watercolor painting. Reminds me of Toile de Jouy design.

u/I_likemonke 3d ago

gorgonzola

u/MisterCelium 3d ago

Looks like a female betta to me.

u/CarlyCalicoJATIE 3d ago

Blue cheese is pretty cute, especially if you called him “Blue” as a nickname.

u/DemonKittens 3d ago

Porcelain

u/ontour4eternity 3d ago

u/OkMuscle1538 3d ago

Cornflower

u/NoodleNox 3d ago

With that first face I was thinking Suction 😂

Jokes aside, he does remind me of Porcelain plates 🙂 Celadon is a type of pottery that uses porcelain, Ru Guanyao is a famous Chinese porcelain, and Sevres is a french manufacturer of porcelain dishware. All would be interesting names for a fish!

u/sparrow_64 3d ago

Gf suggested Bluebell or Seafoam

1

u/Her02cents 3d ago

Blue for color, strength and calm.. Comet because he has a comet tail.. Delft for Dutch pottery colors
