How to? Any tips? Min tank size can a crown tail male and regular female breed new to this any help is appreciated
I would not breed them in anything less than a 10 gallon...Sorry you have not gotten a reply by now. You can breed them in a plastic seater box from WalMart. Place the male in the box for several days. Once he is comfortable and feeding well, place the female in a glass jar and put the jar in the box. The males will really have a tiz, but he should blow a bubble nest in 24-48 hours. Release the female, but put the jar in a corner away from the nest close enough that the female can get behind it if necessary. If you don't see them spawn you will note the female hiding and the male blowing very tiny eggs back into the nest. Get the female out and leave the male in until the young are too hard for him to control. Remove him and gradully move fry to a 10gal to rear. Make sure to have green water and brine shrimp.
No its hard to tell with bettas. When i bred them the eggs were white and they hatched fine.Ok, right now I'm breeding betas, the eggs are in the male's bubble nest, I've bred other kinds of fish and when the eggs are white it means they are not fertilized. Is this the same situation with beta eggs
