Aww he's so adorable; & congrats

ohhh where you gonna take 1000 bettas?

 

[devon_charm]

Not that many will get through it hun, he is having trouble and there is over 100 laying on the bottom of the tank that have been there since yesterday. I will probably get about 100 - 150 tops out of it and yes i'm sure i can home them. Why don't you email Kevin or Keith or why don't you speak to cracker and ask them if they have homes for all the Bettas they are going and are breeding

Thanks to y'all for the comments

Pics of babies!!!!!

Now free swimming and still so so many of them, the pics don't really give you an idea

Wow! That's a lot. Reminds me when Synirr, way back when, had her first spawn. She had a ton of babies too. Pity you are in the UK. I don't like buying bettas from stores anymore (too old), and Fancy websites in the US charge an arm and a leg for a sibling pair. I've no interest in breeding, but I enjoy keeping a better-quality male obtained from a friend, as the fish are much younger. In 2008, Alberich, my Plakat will turn 3 years young. There's something to be said about bettas bred from good stock, and he didn't break the bank because I was helping out a member here.

Good luck in raising what seems to be a load of fry. Have you jars?

llj

 

[devon_charm]

lol yes i have jars but looking at this lot i'll have to buy in a few more.

Thats a good age for Betta to live to, and your right quality goes a long way. I also agree with you about pet shop fish they never seem to last too long and i have noticed they tend to fall ill really easy. Wish i could help you with getting one, and i wish you good luck in finding one

I think it would be a good idea if we started spawning in 30 U.S. gallon tanks. We'd have better survival rates. Do you read them each a story at bedtime? You have adorable bettas. Keep it up!
