Im geting another betta!!

Aquarius is getting a new tank mate. As im geting a pair of bettas to breed. The new addition is going to be a black/copper betta, who should have been a HM. But he had a huge chunk taken out of his tail! His father is amazing! So im going for genetics.



Thats him. What do you think? He is a free betta so im happy

This is his father:


I’m also going to bet him and one or 2 spawn sisters to breed him with. I hope to get some HM out of him Lets hope my parents will let me get 3 new bettas.... officially they have only agreed to 1 new one....

Fraser breed them. Hes in Hamiltion

Re: Im geting another betta!!

It is indeed a very beautiful fish. The father is a very handsome fellow.

I do have one question. Did you realize that the breeding pair cannot be kept in the same tank together? They can only be kept together when the female is ready and the male has built a bubblenest and for that it takes a bit of preparing the fish. If they are just put in the same tank together I am afraid the male will seriously injure the female. There is also a lot of equipment involved in breeding bettas so perhaps it would be a good thing to do some research before you give it a try, unless you have done it before.
