JE47 Posted June 8 Share Posted June 8 Your betta splendens section looks great the only thing I would add to your betta care section that female betta sororities should not be attempted by beginners if you are an intermediate fishkeeper and have already kept a solo betta and gotten to understand their care and behavior. Then you could start to venture into the betta sorority territory. But I would heavily stress that if you are going to attempt this you need a backup plan if it goes wrong and it might not go wrong right away that is why being prepared is important. Anyways this guide looks great super excited Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitecloud09 Posted June 8 Share Posted June 8 What do u think of my section? Hope it is good! @Kunersbettas 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kunersbettas Posted June 8 Author Share Posted June 8 It's very good! My only concern is all of the headings. When we put it into formatting, is it okay if I were to put some of the text under more generalized labels? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Idk but that doesn’t really matter. Just put it into small text right beside the other text @Kunersbettas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guupy42 Posted June 9 Share Posted June 9 On 6/7/2024 at 11:20 AM, Kunersbettas said: Hey everybody! I've got an important question: What size should the physical book be? 5" x 8", 6" x 9", or 8" x 10"? I think one of the first two would be ideal. The 5" x 8" would be good for a quick, portable guide, 6" x 9" is better for more photos. I feel like a smaller book would be better, especially if we are going to have some trouble getting images. If we can somehow get people to contribute images, (I might have a way to do that), then go for the 6x9. If not, the 5x8 would be good. Also, 5x8, the portable guide would also be a better size if our goal is for fishkeepers to be able to have it alongsides other fishkeeping equipment. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless we can get around 80+ pictures, 5 x 8 would be best, and cheaper. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We should not have To many pics. But if we had 80, wow, that would be almost picture every page lol. Oh i can do a section on WCMMs, i own them and have a good amount of experience with them. They may not be the most common, but are the #1 beginner fish out there for sure @Kunersbettas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only unnatural way I've seen them die is when the heater thermostat breaks and the temp rises to 90F 😅. Even then, one made it! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said there is the "least killifish" which is a livebearer and technically not a killifish. The technical definition for killifish is any egg laying toothcarp On 6/7/2024 at 7:30 AM, Kunersbettas said: as well as maybe the American Flagfish They are egg layers.
