    Thank you! I got all three from PETCO a while back, I just repurposed them 😁

    Set up two new betta tanks and a shrimp tank! I have no desk space anymore but it was worth it lol

    I’ve done bettas one other time, and that time I did remove the father, I think I will get a lot more fry if I can keep the father in with them. I think the eggs must not have been fertilized, they always stayed pretty white, none of them seemed opaque

    Well sad news, it looks like he ate the eggs 🙁 I’m not sure why he would do that, my guess is they might not have been fertilized? Idk

    Ok they have finished! I can’t really tell how many eggs there are, but he is being a good dad and placing back in the nest 😄 how long until they hatch? And how long until they are free swimming ?

    Okay so Friday night I put both the bettas back in their breeding setup, with each other separated. Saturday afternoon I released the mom. And today Sunday about 24 hours since I released her they are spawning again! She Is definitely dropping eggs this time! His bubble nest is about 6 times bigger than the one he made last attempt. it looks like I’m gonna have some fry 😁

    I didn’t end up getting any eggs, so I decided to take her out and try again this week. Hopefully I goes smoothly this time 👍

    It’s been a few hours now and she still hasn’t dropped any eggs🙁 .and now she is hiding in a corner. Should I separate her for again for a while? I don’t know what to do

    Just released the mom! It’s only been ten minutes and they are already BREEDING! I can’t believe they took to each other so quickly
  14. James V.
    Thank you! I’ve only ever tried this one other time, and I only ended up with about 15 fry. Hopefully this will turn out a whole lot better

    Ok this is it! I’m going to make a breeding attempt. I’m introducing the pair tonight, tomorrow morning I will see if there is a bubble nest and release the female😁

    I recently set up my first paudarium. I used and expanding foam to attach everything together. It is fish safe it’s called “Great Stuff Pond and Stone” I didn’t use it for a background but I’ve been told you can. I would check out Serpa Design on YouTube for paludarium ideas. I haven’t really planted the under water portion yet, I just threw some stuff in there

    They are most likely feeding from the debris on the sponge, they should be able to get out the same way they got in, plus they get a snack

    I love his videos! Will definitely use some of his advice

    I just got this edge-lit 3 gallon from Petco. Now I’m just waiting for my female betta from aqua Huna 😁

    The plastic hinge on the lid will block out some of the light, I usually just remove the plastic piece.
  23. James V.
