betta

[kagal]

woo hoo i got a bubble nest......male is ready to go.......female isnt.. :.....the only thing with the female her colors are flaring up nicely....she is white withe steel blue fins.....the blue is starting to leech into her body.....but no eggs in da belly gotta keep up with the blood worms....

 

[fishboy]

That a good thing. Well, you might want ot start a good  paramecium batch up for the fry ;D

Kagal do you have the breeding tank set up? To get the female to get the eggs then you need to start feeding her LIVE foods and not the freeze dried ones. I found this out the hard way and mine didn't have any eggs when I put her in the breeding tank. ;D

 

[Bettaman shane]

yes u the live foods are much better

 

[fishboy]

Shane where have you been ???

I didn't feed my gouramis anything special and they still went on breeding for me 8)

 

[ryanp15]

OMG! A post from Shane! I thought you were dead. ;D

Yes but my female betta didn't get any eggs in her with just the regular foods she needed the live ones. Unfortunately I couldn't find anything around me. I am going to try them again later when my male starts to act right. He won't eat anything right now. I don't know what his problem is. I think that the gouramies are probably a little bit different than the bettas though fishboy. ;D

 

[Bettaman shane]

lol i am not dead

i did have some massive problems with disease and extended power outages and i am down to just guppys i have packed almost all my tanks up and just sticking with one 20 for now

 

[ryanp15]

Did you get rid of all of your bettas? That's sad. Why did you have to pack up all of your tanks? Are you moving? =)

 

[Bettaman shane]

rrr um everything is well how do i put it lightly ......dead :'( includin all my bettas for some strange reason and i have packed everything up and basically almost given up on the fish hobby i will c if i chose to come back into it ???

 

[ryanp15]

That's strange. Do you know what caused it all? I fell for you.

 

[fishboy]

Poor bettas and all of those other fish. :'( SHane you should still come back the fish remember all the fun they gave you

 

[kagal]

female finally starting to plump up....shouldnt be long now......

 

[ryanp15]

That's great. What have you been feeding her ??? ;D

 

[kagal]

freeze dried blood worms and live blood worms....

 

[ryanp15]

Kagal do you know how to set up the breeding tank and go about getting them to breed? Just a question because if they're ready you need to be setting it up quickly. I wouldn't want them not to breed for you if they're ready cause the tank isn't set up right. ;D

 

[Bettaman shane]

i will probably get back into it someday.....when i finish my new car....i will b back in full force again

 

[ryanp15]

Good! Don't want you to stray off from the hobby! ;D Did you turn 16 already? If so then happy (belated) birthday! ;D What kinda car is it? ;D

 

[Bettaman shane]

yeah i turned 16 on June the 7 and its a 72 plymouth satelite
P.S. i also got myself into a couple new hobby's so i don't know how much time is going to be possible to get my betta breeding back....my birds adn racin a stock car just take up 2 much time

 

[ryanp15]

Well happy belated birthday then! ;D

What kinda birds, tame or wild? I race in drag races somtimes. That's really fun. Havn't done it in about a year. ;D

 

[Bettaman shane]
