on another post you said you were not going to breed them! the post where you were asking advice because you wanted to buy your first betta - and when explained that you need MANY tanks, money, time, experience, etc etc you said you would wait - for your fish's sake - return the female - a male and female can not cohabitate like guppies - they will terrorize eachother!



in this post http/www.fishforum...0&#entry2651060 from yesterday many many knowledgeable fish keepers were advising you on how to go about keeping a betta - if you got them between today and yesterday it means you are also doing a "fish-in" cycle which is very stressful for the fish seems like you got fantastic advise and then impulsively jumped in...

Agree with Jenste.

Its funny though how your stocking list in your profile said you had a male and female betta before you actually went and 'impulse' brought them.

errmmm im not putted them in together

those pic was not same tank and i know they will need to know eachother first not just 5-6 days but more than 2-3weeks and those damage are not from the male but from another female from the shop. and im not gonna breed them now. so you i hope you understand me.

Say what? Im just stating that you 'wrote' on your profiles stocking list that you had a male and female betta.
on the other thread you were only 'looking' to buy a Plakat male, but you brought a male and female. Unless that was the intention from the start, it would seem to be an impulse buy.

Im not having a dig or anything, just stating a fact. Hope i dont sound offending

you had a whole other thread where you were being advised on how to keep bettas - you stated you were getting YOUR FIRST BETTA - and were strongly advised to not breed them yet as you are still learning how to keep one alive....never mind conditioning them for breeding, having a proper breeding tank, breeding them, growing the fry, having up to 200 extra heated and filtered tanks for potentially hundreds of male offspring who need to be seperated after a few weeks or they will fight and fin nip constantly.
and you need to consider what you are going to do with the fry - have you contacted multiple fish stores to see if they will take them in? most will take only 20 (if you are lucky) at a time due to housing them....

you need to do A LOT of research before breeding - especially bettas!!!!
if you are interested in breeding try some common livebearers first - guppies/platies.... get used to the tedious work with fry that CAN be kept together and THEN think about the EXTREMELY difficult task of breeding bettas!
I have been fish keeping for over 7 years and I still would not take on that task right now - it would cost an outrageous amount of money, time, and stress without any guarantee of profit....

I worry for your fish and that you are trying to do too much, too fast, with too little experience and knowledge.

Just to add: I personally wouldn't breed VT's. They will be harder to shift later on. Also, if they are from the LFS i wouldn't breed them either, as you dont know the age of them or the parents genetics etc.

its not a matter of "getting to know each other"..the fish will fight. PERIOD! no amount of time will make them become "friends". keep them house separately for their safety's sake.
cheers!

i promust you i wont try to breed them now

and thank for the info

 

[Jenste]

i just didnt want to see you try so hard and end up with a bunch of battered and dead babies
and male and female bettas will never co-exist happily....one will always end up killing the other

i wish you all the best with your bettas! you picked a great forum to ask questions on!

 

[BettasFanG]

thank you all

Your male is very handsome . It looks like he has a few tears in his fins, but clean water should soon help that clear up. Hope he settles in well.
