secrets?
i don't know if this place is any good....but when you go there it asks for your email, and it sends you tips n stuff. or you can buy the book called "betta secrets, answers to YOUR top 357 questions". it's $10 plus you get a free book called "betta cures". |

dont forget Wayne's Page he has some neat experiments and some good info. A lot of mistakes can be avoided by reading some of his mishaps
 Plus some neat ideas and some I dont agree with. |

Well not to toot my own horn...hmm, well ok, to toot my own horn...there is my website, although I've only recently started it, but I'm adding to it daily (not necessarily the Betta pages). If anyone ever sees any glaring problems with anything I've written then please contact me
 It all came from my own experiences and research and right out of my head (yikes that's scary). Here's the main Betta page with links to the other Betta areas to the bottom left:http://www.pet-emporium.com/files/index.php?id=58 Linda |

that one link to http://www.bettacave.com/ is pretty interesting....i think this guy is more into betta's than most of us here! i highly doubt that anyone here has 64 tanks and over 3000 betta's....
 what a coincidence.....he's an old fat guy!  (no....really....he IS!)

Here's another one:
Betta Dreams This page shows some of the rice paddies where bettas can be found in their natural habitat: Betta Dreams: Rice Paddies If you already listed this, then never mind...

Yep, that's Phil Lafferty, VERY well known in the show/breeding ranks. Has incredible fish and extremely knowledgable about Bettas. One of my red males is from his lines, unfortunately I've never been able to spawn him and now he's too old  Linda http://www.pet-emporium.com/files http://www.cooking-fanatics.com/files |

Without doubt, the best site I've found so far is http://www.bettatalk.com/ Faith's site is amazing, there are hundreds of pages with excellent information on every topic you can think of relating to Bettas (as well as a BettaCam!) You can't go wrong if you listen to Faith Yoda. About Faith from the BettaTalk web site:
and she's funny too.

classic bettas has just had a major stock update, so if anyone's interested check out the link. the Turquoise X Copper is one of the best spawns i've ever seen, soem amazing plakats came out of it, i highly recommend a look or buy before someone else takes them.

 Thanks for the information. I have enjoyed aquarium fish in the past but have been away from it for awhile. Now that I have retired early  , I have time to enjoy this hobby again. I think Bettas a wounderful an have set up two in seperate 5 gal homes. I want to add more. We have in-wall dish hutch that will house several.

The "Spotlight on Bettas" section by Aquarium Pharmaceuticals (the manufacturer of Stress Coat®, MelaFix®, BettaFix®, PimaFix®, etc.) has some articles, a betta gallery, FAQs and a trivia game, which I'm sure you folks will score 10/10.
