Aloha guys
I don't know how many experienced breeders we have in residence, but I am discovering something which may complicate my new project... And I'd love to know any tips or insights.
This is my first time breeding Bettas, I have been pretty successful with breeding other fish (Corydoras, Mollies, guppies, Longfin Koi, Goldies, etc) but the Bettas are a new thing for me.
I've done my research and am fairly well prepared and sort of have an idea how the whole process is supposed to unfold... Then I discovered that I may have made one slight complicating factor; the fish are SOLID WHITE.
So while I see an ovipositor and little egg sack on the female I want to spawn, she doesn't seem to be "barring up" like they are supposed to when excited... Do the opaque solid whites get bars? Or do I need to rely on other signals (ovipositor, egg sack, flaring at the male, etc for my signals?)
