He’s a red galaxy betta (first photo is today second is when I bought him so as a young betta in feb) he has a good healthy appetite and loves to swim and explore. I noticed a bit of unusual red under his chin and then he flared at me and I noticed his beard. It used to be translucent but now has this bit of black and red. I figure it’s normal for a galaxy betta that’s happy and aging but wanted to make sure it’s not more and I’m ignoring something that needs immediate attention to avoid. Thank you for any advice lol I’m a worry wart.

Just cause of his coloring. Koi bettas can change color quite a bit through their life
Very colorful, nice flare!
Appropriate flex
To be on the safe side, check your ammonia levels. If they’re fine, then it’s probably just him coloring up, which is totally normal.
That first pic is excellent. He looks beautiful!
Flexing on you 😆 will flashing is normal
