Breeding Bettas. For Copper Like Color

[snowflake311]

So I have my fish Mr Sexy. He is going to town building a sweet bubble nest I am so proud. I would love to breed him He is a blue grey copper color. He is so pretty and he has great fins. Really a fine looking fish.

I have 6 females. All about 9 months old. one is about 6 month she is still growing.
Here is what I have
one all red don't know the tail type
one pink body and red fins she has extra long fins for a female.
one red cambodian crown tail female.
one small purple
one large steel blue
The younger is a green cambodian crown tail. Beautiful fish.


Out of those girls what would would be best to breed to my Copper delta tail? If any? I would love to find a copper delta female but I was lucky to find this guy I can't be greedy. How do you get the copper color?

Here is his photo.

I would not consider him a true copper but he is close.

I have a 15 Gal tank I can set up at the breeding tank.
I have a store that would take my babies.
I have been preparing my self to breed bettas for many years now. I just never had time or money for it and I do now.
I don't want to just breed for the heck of it I want to make some beautiful fish.

Shame you're not in the UK. I still have a couple of females left from our copper spawn.

Difficult to say which female to use without pics, but whichever you use you should end up with some fry with a more metalic colour to them
