Renita Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 My male betta seems to be making bubble nests under frogbit. Should I get him a female? This is my first betta. He is in a 6-gallon cube. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrozenFins Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 If your wanting to breed bettas I would say yes go for it. However there are lots of complications you have to keep in mind with breeding bettas, like how will you keep the fry? You'll have to house them sepertley as they mature which can take up a lot of room. If your interested in breeding bettas, and your a member of the aquarium co-op channel (only $5 a month) I would suggest to watch this presentation about breeding bettas: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HsbQ0hMc-Z0&list=UUMONJuJfXCKNWu4-VifYixs8A&index=3 Personally I wouldn't get a female, I read that if a betta makes a bubbles nest it means their happy. Breeding bettas brings in so many expenses you may not be ready for. Plus you'll have to find homes for all the baby fish, which can be very difficult. Depending on the spawn I've heard anywhere between 10 - 100 baby bettas. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sudofish Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 I agree with James. I'd just take it as a sign that he likes his tank and you're doing a good job. My betta makes nests. My sisters does not. Soo that makes me the better betta parent in the family lol. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
