    Can bettas breed with

    Typical of Yeevia so ignore him :P . I think you should post this in the hybrid section but here's my opinion: No. Bettas are a bit aggressive and their breeding habits are different.

    Can 'crownmoon'

    Well here's what the caudal fin looks like: http://www.fishforums.net/index.php?showto...30&hl=crownmoon (this is not my betta) but the rest of the fins look normal. That was before his caudal fin starts looking more like this: http://vanriel.myadsl.nl/SireBT220105B.jpg (this is not my betta)

    Can 'crownmoon'

    Here's something odd. My male betta used to have 'crownmoon' tail (delta/super delta tail with crowntail in him) but right now his tail looks more and more roselike each day but the crown is still there. What the heck is going on?

    Caves - what do YOU have?

    PVC PIPES!! That's when you're broke like I am :P . But seriously, PVC works GREAT and you can choose any size you want. When I placed the PVC in my male betta's container, it looks like a little white tree and he would wait IN the PVC for the food! Such a great invention ;)

    Tips and Tricks in breeding bettas

    Step 1: Visit [Photobucket.com] Step 2: Album [BettasRFriends] Password is [Jason] Step 3: The first two picture (the female's tail is actually a mixture of red, blue, purple-ish) and the male's tail turned rose-like so it's no longer rounded with his 'crownmoon' :/ Step 4: :drool: [:P]...

    omg what do i do

    Yeah, VT are a touchy subject. You CAN breed VT at your own wish because that's your opinion. We all have different opinions so please don't be offended. mm_simb is right though, breeding any betta with VT in them will produce VT because VT are dominant.

    There were over 20 females in there. No dead ones mind you. Anyways, there were like 2 cambodians and the rest were red, blue, mix, and thats pretty much it. They looked like male plakat (thick body) but are actually females.

    I went to my LFS to buy some live bloodworms. When the cashier took out a white tub full of black worms from the fridge, I was a bit confused. So here's my questions: 1) Are bloodworms black? 2) How do you culture blood/black worms? 3) What do you feed blood/black worms?

    Worst conditions I've ever seen

    Yeah I've seen something like that once. There were like 4 bettas, each in a seperate 32 oz? containers, with 2 inch of brown water. Guess what happened to the betta? All shriveled, no eyes, no scales, some had just bones. It looked as if they were there for months without food or water changes.

    Powerhead equivalancy per gallons

    That's what I meant. I couldn't really explain it but the 5x and hour thing was what I was looking for. I read online about 5 or more complete water movement x aquarium gallons = gph or something like that. Thanks.
