Bettas not mating but not fighting either

[OmniPrincess]

I attempted to breed a crowntail female with a samurai male it didn't work out I tried with a different pair this time an alien female with a samurai male I conditioned them I released the female he was dancing and casually chasing her a bit then all a sudden they stopped he made a huge bubble nest they're not mating they aren't fighting they're just chilling in the tank together swimming directly by each other with no issues I am very confused on what is going on help 😅

Give them 72 hrs. Do not turn lights off (keep them on dim). They need privacy, don’t bother them. Are there eggs in the nest yet? Sometimes the embrace is very quick / minimal.

I will try dimming the lights no eggs are in the nest currently
