I’ve been fishkeeping for about 2 1/2 years now. From two goldfish in a bowl, to the 10 aquariums that I have now. I love bettas and have just begun breeding them as of 2 weeks ago. I have two 5 gallon aquariums for bettas, a 5,5.5, and 10 gallon for breeding, a 20 gallon long for an axolotl, a 20 gallon long for a community, a 10 gallon betta community, a 55 gallon saltwater, and a 16 gallon quarantine. Non-fish related pets include 3 Guinea pigs. I love them all and spend many hours cleaning them ever week. Here are some of my fish (and Guinea pigs):

Welcome! Your Betta fish are beautiful! I'm so sorry about Platinum, he was so pretty!
 
Thank y’all for the welcoming responses! Platinum still has some descendants to live up to his name! He was one of my breeder males who only bred once, but it was one of my first spawns, and I made a mistake with his conditioning process. The fry are doing great and hopefully will grow up to be mini-Platinums!
 
Be sure to enter one of your guinea pigs in our upcoming Pet of the Month contest which starts in mid July.

Also our tank of the Month contest starts in just a few days and will feature tanks sized at 17 to 30 gallons.

Welcome. I have never seen a betta fry. Please post pics.
 
Thank you!

Betta fry are super tiny and hard to get pictures of, here is a picture I took. You can see the tails hanging down from the bubble nest.
 
Welcome to TTF! I too, also started from goldfish in bowls! I love your bettas! I'm breeding bettas too! I feel that we have so much in common. I hope you enjoy your stay here!
 
Hi and welcome to TFF... :hi:
Nice of number of bettas you've got... Feel free to post some photos of the future betta offspring.
