Betta fish are weird creatures. They have babies called fries.
@LivetoPaddle no they dont usually, maybe her personality is different from others and likes to help out. After they are done spawning and the male is carying the eggs to the bubble nest, if she is too shes one that likes to help, but if not you should seperate them after they are done.
thats alot of work
my male betta made a huge bubble nest, but I accidently destroy it while feeding the betta…it’s been a while now and my betta doesn’t appear to be making any bubble after the destruction of it’s nest. what’s wrong with it and how can I help????
I dont think so, Only the male ones build it. maybe you got them mixed up. Or maybe thats not a bubble nest
hi i was just curious is it possible to have two male bettas in a 45gal or bigger tank or even a male and female without a seperator?
@dexterORYGON- i know my betta is for sure a male and already begin making his bubble nest agin after i adjusted the temperture. but now i discover some white dots on his fins and body, should i be concern????????
i got a betta today
any one have any tips.
As i write this my Blue Plakat is putting eggs under his nest from a CT red female, i may post some videos up when they get old enough. BTW for me it usually takes 1 day to condition the bettas. But you dont need to add all this BS to the tank lol. Regular water is good and if you can get rain water better.
do females always have the white spot or just when ready to breed?
@DRsegueta Do you have to have heater and filter?
@u842
Depends if you live in a cold place but here in New York is getting warmer so right now i dont need a heater for them but i do have one for the older baby fry which are around 2 months old. I got 2 different tank one with the 4days old and the other one with 6 2 months old. You dont need it if you live in a warm place.
@u842
BTW the filter is up to you, i rather not used them because bettas come from calm water without much movement but you if you decide to buy one buy a turkey baster (i think that’s the name) and a sponge filter so you dont suck the fry into the filter and kill them.
fix your “Open” sign first, the “O” is busted. lol.
i have a female betta and it making alot of bubble near the heater it this normal????
did anyone else notice the “PEN” sigh in the back ground? hahaha
My betta is sick and I have tried everything. T.C Tetracycline etc. and he si not getting better. he is about 3 years old . . . . . is he just old? He still has lots of energy but keeps getting finrot and I clean the tank every 2 days . . . .?
Any help?
sincerely
very concerned
@LivetoPaddle I’m sorry to hear that.
man i that this was jim rome………..
how long can u leve the fry together after being born before killing ech other?? pleaz respond i need this answere befor mi parents will let me breed
Wow… It’s pronounced Bet-ta, not Bay-ta!
The general overview is fine, but it is Far more complicated to breed them, and raising the fry (Babies) is essentially a full time job. Breeding bettas is fun and rewarding, but it is also frustrating and heartbreaking most of the time.
Please do your research before attempting to breed!
