Holland Betta Show 2013    
         
   

The Holland Betta Show 2012 was a big success! In total 308 show bettas were entered by 36 breeders from 9 European countries: Austria (1x), Belgium (2x), Czech Republic (5x), Germany (9x), Italy (7x), Sweden (1x), Switzerland (2x), The Netherlands (7x) and The United Kingdom (2x). We were extremely happy to welcome so many members of our forum and to meet many other (new) betta hobbyists.

   
         
   

Before I continue with the results, I first want to thank the following people without whom this show would not have been possible:

- Our sponsor ZooMed for their support and providing us with several products of their betta-line!
- Domburg Sportprijzen Holland for providing the beautiful awards for the 1st placed fish of each show class, the special awards and off course our promotional products.

- Annemiek van Driel & Arie de Koning for coordinating the groceries in order to provide us with food and drinks at breakfast and the amazing BBQs.
- All the breeders who have trusted us with their showfish.
