My Betta fish couple mating!1

Took this video on Wednesday, August the 9th of 2006 around 2-3 P.M. (FACT: Bettas mate until the female is depleted of eggs! The bubble nest is real, my male betta made all those bubbles. Crown tail Male and Round tail Female This is -I think- a 10-gallon tank that I bought from Wal-Mart. It was a complete kit, with filter. I cannot recall the price, but I think it was about $30?) Update: 12-18-08 I no longer have these bettas or any other fishes. I gave up my fish hobby after my baby was born. I have a really busy schedule, therefore have no time to care for the fishes. Also, both of these fishes are deceased. The fry(s) did not survive b/c of me. I'm not a breeder, therefore didn't really bother to buy a seperate tank to incubate them. I just didn't have any room in my bedroom for another tank.

(c) veiltails, because you have to ask more money than the store (costs of the set up, food, time, ...) and why buying a fish which you can get for less? Betta breeding costs about 400$ for the 1st spawn, then a lot of the costs reduce but you still have food, electricity and water costs

spacebug30 - 11 years ago
(c) of deformed fish, most breeders euthanize the entire spawn from the moment they notice one of the parent fish is an offspring from a petstore betta Also remember its not 10 fishies like guppies, you'll have 200 fry, about 100 males which all need a seperate jar (jars are good for temperaly housing of betta males, but not for permanent) which all have to be heated and kept clean (cleaning each jar out every other day) and they need 4 times a day live food Also, no one wants to buy (c)

They are breedable but its not recommended because they're just muds, they're the result of 2 random betta's put together on an asian fish farm, you have no idea what genes they cary and most have diseases and deformations the will give to the offspring Get 2 quality betta's from a known breeder, because once you have 'petstore betta' in the breeding line, it takes years and years to get it out of the fish' genes. If a hobby breeder accidentally buys a fish with petstore genes, he'll have a (c)

the easy way to tell if its a female is 1) female is much smaller and has much shorter fins 2)and female is less brighter more of a dull color the males are much bigger brighter longer fins and is aggressive

KaylaJo96
KaylaJo96 - 14 years ago
Nope! A good number of fish need filters because it circulates the air so they can breathe, but Bettas are known as "surface breathers," meaning they get their air by swimming up to the surface and taking in oxygen. In the case of betta fish, filters aren't necessary, but they make cleaning the bowl/tank much easier.

I'm sorry to say that this video was taken over 2 years ago, plus I no longer have any fishes. These bettas have also long deceased, and I couldn't get the babies to live. They both had about 3-4 batches of babies, but I just didn't have the time on my hands to care for them. I won't be answering anyone's questions or comments. I'm also not a breeder. I only had these bettas for pets, and never meant for them to breed. They just somehow were attracted to each other & mated. Enjoy the video.

That's the nest of bubbles that the male makes in preparation for spawning. During spawning the male, and sometimes the female too, will catch the eggs and spit them into the bubble nest where they will stay until they hatch into what is known as Fry (baby bettas).

You shouldn't put so many gravels and decorations in the breeding tank. The eggs could fall onto and under the rocks, then the male won't be able to find them.
