I was confused because I couldnā€™t see any fry and I checked her before I left for work and she was still pregnant.

    Hello! My name is Ariel and I'm a new member here :) I've started a project called Betta World For Bettas, because I see there's still a lot of misinformation about betta care among consumers and pet chains.
