a few of my My 8 week old betta fry, I noticed, have a slight white edge to their anal fins.i'm not sure if its,just the fin growing? And two of my fry clamped up, and stay either on the bottom or up in the corner. Any ideas? Should I treat? Sorry no pics.

Blizzard, is a very handsome boy!

I agree, looks like you gotta girl bully!

How old is belle?

How about Butter, for the gold plat. she (or maybe he) is about the same color.

How can I tell if my infusoria culture actually contains infusoria, and I'm not just putting fowled water into my fry tank? I've tried a magnifying glass and I just can't see anything. My culture is about 10 days old and is very cloudy. It was started from lettuce leaves. I just don't want to...

Hi, first I want to thank you for your help. Fry an dad are doing great. I'm new to betta's, I raised and showed gups for like 6 years. but wanted try my hand with bettas. Started with 6 (4 females 2 males). Now I have like 256 with the fry. Yeah there was alot more than I thought.

I would be careful feeding to much of the freeze dried bloodworms, or freeze dried anything. The occasional treat (once or twice a week) but too much will cause constipation. I also feed pea's once a week, but I don't fast.

they are hatching! I'm not watching too much. I'm just worried about the fry, this is my first spawn but I do no the nest isn't supposed to dissinagrate. The nest is too thin and is coming apart. I believe thats why the fry and eggs keep falling. The male is being a good dad and running like...

The bubblenests is coming apart!!! now what??

There's probably between 75-100. Almost all the eggs have fallen out of the nest. They're just not sticking. I don't no what I should do!

I'm not going to remove if I can help it. But the eggs are just not staying in the nest. He blows them and they just fall again. :(

My bettas spawn yesterday around 1pm. So 28 hrs ago. The eggs will not stay in the nest all of a sudden. My mal will blow 5 in a 6 will fall! there's like 20-25 eggs on the bottom of the tank. Is this normal? Will they hatch? Should I do anything? This is my first atempt at a spawn, so I was...
