Answer 1

Blue and red are very dominate colors in bettas and it's not unusual at all for a white betta to start showing those colors as it matures or if it has been stressed and is recovering. Red spots in the fins can of course be the sign of a disease, but since you are seeing an increase in the amount of blue as well, I think what you are seeing is the fish mature and becoming healthier and more comfortable in it's surroundings. A photo of the fish could confirm this, but I really doubt you have anything at all to worry about.

Answer 2

its color changing that is normal


alot of white bettas arent really white. finding a true white betta is actually very rare, as even breeding two purewhites will result in babies that have red or blue wash.

yours could be a pastel and now the colors are changing. marbles also do this.

But color changes arent anything to worry about.

Answer 3

I actually have a combtail betta with comparable colour to what you describe your crowntail. I named mine eeyore after the donkey from pooh undergo. i might recommend something like "king violet" as a good call.

Answer 4

hi its nothing to worry about your simease fighting fish is just growing up and developing its colors. do fret over it he will just get nice and colorful he is properly just maturing up into an adult male.

Answer 5

Is it a fish? If it is, then it's just growing into an adult- but if you're that worried about it look at pictures on the internrt.
