ive been atempting to spawn a pair of PK for the past few days now and its been fruitless. the female looks like a little brown tiger with her stripes but she just dont seem all that interested. i was gona put them together today for one last atempt but when i woke thismorning, there they were wraping and spawning, the girl had squeezed past a gap at the side of the divider and went to spawn. i left them to it and then came back an hour later to check on them. the girl was done, and she had sqeezed her way back to the other side and left the male to his charges! whoever said betta breeding was difficult :good:

i dont want to ruin your fun, but just realize that it could have went the other way also. you need to make sure that there is no way for them to get to each other if your not there. he could have killed her just as easy. just realize that you got luckey.

but congrads on the spawn. how many you got?

i do realize this. the divider is a bit ill fiting but id plugged up the gaps with java moss, but she had decided its time to spawn so she must have pushed it out. im glad she didnt get stuck more than anything. its not a big spawn and they are sctered all over the tank now, i have some plants on the tank so i gess a few are hiding in there, but at a glance i think there are a few dozen, munching away on microworms!
