AcK! These babies are turning out so beautifully... I might want a baby girl for my 40g community once it's set up... When will they be available?

Thank you! If you want a girl I have some! There’s actually one that’ll be a red galaxy like the mother and also some Nemo galaxy as well that are big enough.

The babies are already sleeping and I don’t want to scare them by turning their light on. Can you wait tomorrow? I’m going to record a video tomorrow for their 9 weeks update and I’ll try to scoop the female that I’m talking about for you and some other ones as well. Is that okay?

Are the females cheaper then males?

Everything is the same price. They’re all my babies and I love them all equally.

thanks for the understanding. They get startled when I turn their light on in the morning and I could only imagine when I turn their light on in pitched black

I don’t even notice it because I don’t really buy bettas from a local pet store because most of them are kept in a horrible condition and often get sick. I don’t support them selling bettas in so many ways. I only support them with their $1 per gallon sale haha!

Lol. Yeah, I get it. Just wondered I've gotten my bettas from a reputable fish store in my area (not petsmart/petco).

Srry don't want philam getting sued
Edit: I just edited your original post when I quoted it. Sorry nevermind what I said.
 
I can take 1 female off you’ hands, but I don’t think it would do much.

I paid $10 for the betta and $15 for shipping, but it depends where you live.
 
Do you offer overnight options or next day deliverys? Other than priority?
 
I love seeing these guys. Do you have any males more on the lighter side?

It’ll be $10 plus a freebie if you’d like one or have an extra room and shipping varies on what state you’re in.

I have some female for you if you’d like. I actually have a video of them that’s uploading right now but the internet is taking so long haha

Click to expand...
Yes I do. In fact I have told a couple of them from here that live in west coast that it’d be safer to ship them via priority express because I know that the usps is experiencing some delays due to a volume of mails and everybody shops online. I’m from Pennsylvania and if you’re close from me, priority will do it but express is a safer bet and it’ll get to you guaranteed within 2 days.

You mean cellophane? If so, yes I do but I know they’ll develop their color soon. I actually have some males that is blue that’s turning light blue and it’ll be cellophane then their pattern comes in. Watch the video that I’m going to put here later when it’s done uploading because I showcased some cool males that’s half Nemo half blue half black. It’s fascinating
 
Are they able to breed through a tank divider?? I'm thinking of dividing a 10 into two, for my kiddos play room upstairs, and I know my daughter will want a female.

They’re too young to be bred. I’d wait until they’re 5-6 months old. They’re not even 2.5 months old yet. They’re only 9 weeks old.

I dont want breeding, lol. I was hoping they WONT breed in a divided tank.
Click to expand...
That’s a no. Look up a video of bettas breeding.
 
They won't. Well they can't in a divided tank.
Click to expand...
Besides, even if the female lays eggs, the male would have to pick up the eggs and put them in the bubble nest which would be impossible if they're in a divided tank.

Oh haha I’m sorry I misinterpreted it but no, if they can’t touch each other they can’t just like anything else haha
 
i wonder, if divided would still be too stimulating, perhaps stressing each other? maybe not a good idea after all? my daughter really digs the females, she feels like they are beautiful and under appreciated. doesnt care for all the hype over most people choosing males only. she's 8.

Ah ok! I'm in CO... 5 states away. How much might shipping be?
Also I may want a freebie... But it'll have to be another female.

If the divider is not transparent and they can’t see each other, it shouldn’t bother them. And yes females are cool in their own way!

If they can't see each other, then they probably won't know the other one exists.

Okay guys weekend update. They’re 9 WEEKS old and here they are. All the jarred males have made a nest in their tank and that goes to show you how healthy and active they are. They go insane when they see another male which is a good thing.
I also have some female in this video and some males that is half blue half Nemo it’s cool but they won’t stay like that. I will showcase some more male next week so stay tuned for that!

Aww! Wish I could take one! I guess I'd better stick with what I have. I know yours are cheap for what they are, but as a 13yr old who doesn't get allowance and doesn't have a job, $25 (including shipping) is a lot to pay for one fish Sorry

You have an option to take a freebie if you’d like so you’ll end up getting two fishes and you have to pay for the shipping. If I ship the fish for everyone, I’ll end up literally giving it away for free. I hope you understand. I’m sorry.

Okay guys I managed to take some photos of some of the jarred males. They’re so hard to take a picture of because they move so fast

They look great! I didn't realize how big their tails were until now. I'll have a tank up and ready for one in a week or so, I wish I could take two but then one would have to stay with some tetras and I don't know how that would go...

I think they can be with tetra. It just depends what size tank.

The tail on the ones that are jarred tends to be a bit bigger because I practice them to flare at their siblings so they’ll have a stronger tail and also so they could develop them as well as their colors.
 
Hi! Those bettas are gorgeous! I have been looking for a betta to buy soon... Do you think they would all be gone by June?

Thank you! I think i should I have some left by then. I still have quite a few in my grow out tank and by then most of the males should be jarred and ready to go out to it’s new home as well as the females
