There! ;0)
I've spawned my bettas! :D
About half an hour ago to male was collecting the dropped eggs and putting them back in the nest, and now, there are HUNDREDS OF BABIES SWIMMING AROUND! Should I take out the male? When? And would he be alright to go in a 10gal tank with 2 black moors and 1 shrimp - just for the time being?
When should I feed the fry - and shall I just give them very very finely crushed flake?
Thanks! :)
 
:rolleyes: LOL good luck!! Mine were like the photo below on the 17th and are now eating baby BS. I'm using a combo of BS, liquidfry, and Betta First Bites. I started feeding on the 18th with liquidfry, combo of liquidfry and Betta First Bites on the 19th and from the 20th on BS, liquidfry & Betta First Bites as there are still some tiny ones which I doubt will make it. They all seem to have little pinkish tummies now.

There's also some Java Moss in there which helps a bit with the food and hiding places for the babies.

Here's a photo essay of them.... h ttp://www.nashnutphoto.com/bettas.html

Just close the h ttp gap

You can see the color differences now.
