I love it! Thank you for giving them a good home! I hope the sisters are welcoming their sister nicely hilarious

So far so good! There’s been zero drama between them.

I do love my girls and the boys are all little brutes.

I do love my girls and the boys are all little brutes.

Maybe the snapping is a function of their personality or age ? I don't know

 

[kymob]

Some of philam offspring. Below is the same betta just showing you how much they change in color. 3 months span.

I will now only do sister sorority's.

 

[philam]

My female bettas never snap or pick on any of their sisters. In fact, the only time that I’ve seen my spawn picking at each other is when the boys were in it. I’ve already removed all the males from the grow out tank and the only thing that I have left in it is the girls and no fight or picking or nipped fins or whatsoever.

I have five of his girls and they are amazing in a sorority tank! They don't fin nip at all! Occasionally I'll see one of them run one off her sisters out of their favorite places but that's about it! No aggression what's so ever!

 

[Alliebaaba]

Update photos on the boys! Girls in post above! Everyone is happy and healthy! Buble nests galore! And tomorrow is gonna be blood worms or brine shrimp day! I'm so happy with them! Their colors have all changed so much since I have had them! One of my tanks is having a huge battle with Blackbeard algae but that's about it. I've been doing more frequent water changes on it but still pretty bad. May end up having to take the tank apart and re-due it eventually...
Enjoy the photos!

 

[PNWBettas]

Wondering... how many do you have left? Seems like you have had lots of success finding homes for them on here!

What size tank do you keep those 5 bettas in? I’d love to set up a sorority tank one day!

 

[Alliebaaba]

For now it's a ten gallon but I plan to up grade them to a thirteen or twenty gallon. So I also incorporated lots of hiding places for them to claim as their own territories which they love! All of them have a favorite spot in the tank!

 

[DoubleDee]

They certainly are beautiful!

STUNNING INDEED

Omg!! black beard has really turned into a big stud! His fins are so wide! It makes me think that you’re making him flare a lot!

I have about 12-15 females left and about 30+ males left out of 458 babies. It’s been a long and tiring journey with this big spawn but it’s very rewarding and seeing all my babies turned into a high quality fishes. Definitely no more big spawn like this again hilarious

He has definitely turned into a huge hunk! He loves to flair up even at me! It's almost like he is saying look at me and look at how gorgeous I am!

Are you keeping those 12-15 females? If not, I’d like to purchase 5 of them! I can use seeded filter media from another tank of mine so technically I have a cycled tank set up if they’re available to purchase.

 

[DoubleDee]

Once I get verified I’d love to get some from you!

I don’t think I’m planning on keeping them all but maybe just 1 I don’t know yet. If you still want 5 of the girls, let me know because I ship on mondays only. I don’t know if I’m going to use one of my female or male for future breeding. I definitely won’t do inbreeding because I’m just not a fan of it. These offsprings came from a different strain and completely unrelated parents and I was still able to produce a high quality bettas in the 1st generation out of those wonderful parents.

Once I get verified I’d love to get some from you!

I know that you’ve asked me about it Before and I replied to you but it was removed because you can’t make any trade in here until you have 50+ posts. Once you have at least 50 posts, send me a message or reply here. I got in trouble for that by the way hilarious

It wasn’t my intention to get you in trouble! I’m just excited in anticipating getting some of your beauties!

Yes I do!

I have been told by several of members in here that they are no longer getting notifications from my original thread, I don't want anyone missing out on the updates so.... I have created a part 2 journal about my spawn since my first thread is too long to follow now. If you are seeing this thread for the first time please check out the part one of my spawn journal by clicking the link below so that you can see how my fish have progressed since their day 1

Outrageous!! Betta breeding with over 458 baby bettas | 446928 | Betta Breeding

Quick overview: My spawn are currently in their 13 week period. The parents are Nemo Galaxy x Red Galaxy HMPK. Both parents are imported. The babies have hatched on 3/3-4/2020. My spawn successfully gave me 400+ baby betta! I also give an extra betta if you wish so.

Check out this current video of some of my handsome juvenile jarred males (most of them are still available)

Check out this current video of my females!

kymob I definitely wouldn’t put more than 4 sisters in a 10 gallon tank. If you want to have more than that, I would suggest at least 30 gallon planted tank.

i am so jealous!! wow good job! if you need homes please let me know. i would love to take two. or three...maybe four. maybe five....did i do this right? was i supposed to do a new message? i'm so confused about this. do i need 50 messages to be able to do buys and trades. i don't have anything to trade yet, but...someday maybe i will. you never know. congratulations on your brood.

[FishGirl115]

I have 12 of his girls in a 20 gal. no problems at all

 

[philam]

Okay guys! Last update for the girls! This is all of the girls that I have left in this spawn and nothing more. They’re so beautiful and have multicolor patterns! Definitely a mix of the dad/mom, mom like, dad like patterns. I Think there are less than 15 girls left. they’re all available and ready for breeding or even for a successful Sisters sorority! So many splash of colors in the tank and they’re also very eggy and fat hilarious

 

[DoubleDee]

I’ve got a 20 gallon tank waiting for some of your beautiful girls! I just have to have 50 posts and I’m just hoping I can do that before they are gone.......

So, when are you planning another spawn?

 

[NBettas83]

How long have they been around? It must have been like 5 or 6 months now. Super pretty! Too bad I can't get any, maybe next time.

I’m glad that everything is working out for you! As for next spawn, I don’t know if I’m doing one this year. It’s probably going to be next year but one thing that’s for sure is it won’t be over 500 babies next time hilarious

My gorgeous babies are settling in nicely! Sorry for not posting photos of them sooner but they were stressed out by the journey and I wanted to make sure they settled in good first! The first three photos are the boys and the fourth photo is the girl! The boys love posing for the camera!

Oh and we loved our babies so much, we have more on the way! Can't wait to meet them either! They all have such wonderful and different personalities!

Im actually building a betta tank and ive been looking around and imbreally into the galaxys, candy style bettas.

Ps. Not trying to steal any photos, just wanted to use it as an example.

Yes I have a brother of that male that kind of looks like him. I remember exactly that male! Galaxys are definitely a hot trend!
