For Sale: High quality bettas

[cherokeeluvr]

Do you have another pair you could try? My male wouldn't breed with one girl, so I bought him another and he built a huge bubble nest in one day and they bred the next day.

So far, very small, unsuccessful bubble nests.

Are you trying to breed your FL fish up North or are you getting new fish up there? If you are using the fish from FL, you may need to duplicate FL water parameters to get them to go again. ( I had the reverse when I moved my fish from NJ to FL but once I went back to the NJ parameters, the fish spawned.) If you are getting fish up there, I find water temps to be very important with Bettas. You may need to up the temp a degree or 2 or drop it a degree or 2 to get them stimulated for spawning. ( My sweet spot here was 78-82 degrees.) It could also be a barametric pressure thing up there as well.
There is another possibility, they might just not like the snow up there.

Just some possibilities for you.

Wow. Those bettas are absolutely stunning. I wish I had a good setup for one...

So, what caused that?

Proof positive that you can't just throw 2 Bettas together and expect them to breed? They DO have preferences.

Congrats on the bubbles.

I'm not sure if they call it mustard gas or just black/gray with pale fins. I just happen to love the look of the fish. Are they for sale or are there ones that will look like it available.

I'd be interested in buying a black halfmoon from you if you have one in your stock. I will pay shipping and such. Contact me

I might be interested in buying a female betta, if that is possible.

For some unkown reason, my success rates here in MA are completely off from what I had in FL. I am inclined to say it has something to do with air temperature below 60s. I tried wrapping the top but that creates moist that drips back to the tank desteoying bubble nests.

For now, I will stop my attempts and come back later (May/June).

Sorry for any possible inconvenience. 😓
