    Thanks for the note about how much to feed. My female betta is a tiny but active little thing, and since she always begs for food whenever I so much as glance at her I've been confused about how much food she actually needs lol. You're right when you say they like to watch things too - ever since I added a nerite snail she'll sometimes curl herself over it and just watch it move. She always seemed so bored before. Thanks for the tips!

      My female does this too!! Surprisingly my male he's bigger than her and I got him first I could tell he was bored and I decided to get a female and see if they would breed but she actually became the aggressive one and nipped his fins a lot and so I separated them right away he never made a bubble nest but they chased each other around and she. He'd had enough he would chase her off if she came anywhere near her but would never bite her . I think I'll get a snail for them both

    I've had a female betta in a 55g with 3 goldfish for like 9 months. She eats whatever they eat without any problems. I try to feed her other stuff sometimes to vary her diet. The only reason she was in there was due to her getting past a tank divider into the male's side of the 10g. It was supposed to be temporary but the container hanging on the inside of the 55 tipped a bit and next thing I see is her exploring. Waddaya do? She seemed ok so I left her. Guess I just got lucky.

    HELPPPP so i breed two pairs of bettas. Both of them were succesful. Once it was time to feed them I 1st fed them with boiled egg. And after 4 days I fed them Decapsulated bbs (I actually plan to feed them the hatchable ones but I ordered the wrong one cause I didn't see the decapsulated warning). And now the first batch is 24 day old and the other one was 23 day old. Both of the batch is still small the first batch, I can see some progress (they are still small though like super small) but the no progress the second one. My guppy fry grew bigger and faster than them even with the fact that my guppies give birth 2 weeks after these baby bettas can sweem freely.

    @moshack Před 3 lety

    The problem with gravel is you can't medicate the fish tank without removing all the substrate. So I think a bare bottom with potted or floating plants might be best. You need to add salt at times and plants don't like salt.
