I never said that they weren't inbred I disputed your statement that they are "higly inbred" which is quite different. You might want to review your statement. These fish are from several distinct lines that feature differences amongst them. Obviously the first fish had to be inbred in order to...

Fish you posted photos of are Red Albino Lyretail Swords which are quite different from the Red Eye Blood Red Hi-Fin Lyretail Swords posted by jollysue. The first thing amongst many are the males as if you look at the first photo you will notice the male has a single sword and is not lyretail as...

The fish in the last picture is of a female Hi-Fin Lyretail Sword which is a mate to the first photo which is of a male Hi-Fin Lyretail Sword. These are not the run of the mill Red Albino Lyretails you find at a LFS as these fish are quite expensive and are Red Eye Blood Red Hi-Fin Lyretail...

I have "heard" a lot of things as well such as flying pigs or even sasquatch but I prefer to go on my own personal findings and not things I have "heard" ! What does one consider "highly inbred" ? The orginal guppy strain would then be "highly inbred" yet it continues to thrive today ! I'll...

As I stated, lying to make one's self look better is nothing more then self deprecation. Ask Watt where he sent his last box of 250 SD :hyper: ! Guess when your the largest importer/exporter of show quality bettas in North America people have to make up stories to try and bring ya down. Sadly...

'How does it move"...just like BBS ! Each piece has tiny air pockets that keep the feed particles in the water column, not on the bottom of the tank.

No, actually you stated the above which is what you were being "corrected" on. The product does move when applied properly and is not useless by any means !

I always find it amusing when those who have nothing substantial left to say decide to start name calling and lying. Forums always have a way of showing one's maturity or in this case, lack of !

Well I am just glad that 99.9% of the users out there aren't having these "issues" as it would certainly be disheartening ! The nicest thing is that a huge segment of the breeders in Thailand, Malayasia, Singapore, and Vietnam are/have switched over to this wonderful product line of foods that...

Why don't you ask Uncle Sara or Natee Ratanapichad as they are the father & son team who created the "giant" ? I've been to their farm and spoken with them many times and like I said before, a 7" giant is an anomaly. A giant plakat is approximately 3.5". The "giant" gene data was supplied by...

While on paper you would think your correct, you are actually incorrect ! The food is designed to mimic live food and be fed from day 3 until 1 month old. Now if Atison used it and it worked on his farm and we tested it here on 18,000 gallons of bettas and it worked here then I can assure you it...

7 inch giants are like 7 foot people, they are an anomaly. The norm is approximately 3.5" long. Giant gene information for breeding Giant 100% means the body is about 3.5" long Giant 87.5% means the body is about 3" long Giant 75% means the body is about 2.75" long Giant 50% means the...

Just remember when buying a prepackaged bottle of eggs that they are processed and packaged months before you get them and they are never tested for hatch-out quality. As always if you choose to buy eggs be sure that they have been recently tested for hatch-out quality and are guaranteed.

Send me a PM and I can help you with that :hey: !

Here's the answer ! Atison's Betta Fry Starter Top performance larval fish diet with high digestible energy. To be used from day 3 to the end of the first month. Nutritional complete food for young Betta fish that will help promote fast growth, optimal development and disease resistance...

Those of you wondering why certain species aren't available this year here's your answer. As you will read in the article below the drought in the Amazon rainforest is the worst drought in decades. For those of you who are Corydoras collectors this will impact you more so then anyone else...

Sue, Your not looking at "fin rot" ! Fin rot doesn't affect the nasal region. That is from an abrsasion. What your looking at there is from them rubbing their nose on incorrect substrate or a hiding place with too small an opening, however, from past experience that is from incorrect...

Normally we would have expected to see them by now but it was a very short rainy season this year and there haven't been any more shipments of Habrosus or Hastus. Being that the season is coming to a close shortly I don't have high hopes of seeing any more but one never knows. We've just...

We both breed and import. All of our domestically bred betta sp. are on our Better Bettas site and our Blue Betta USA site is where we sell all of the betta sp. we import from our affiliate farm in Thailand. Currently we are the largest dometic breeder of betta sp as well as the largest importer...

Hi Inchworm, I am pleased to have helped in some round about way ! I just wanted to make things clear as to why we ship the way we do. As for your fish, I wouldn't worry too much. Once you've got them in a tank and they are going they should all thrive pretty well. One thing I noticed is that...

I agree 100%. I wasn't looking for a fight or war. I am just trying to clear up some things as far as to the questioning of "why" we do some things the way we do them. Do they work for everyone, no, they work for us and that's why we continue to do them. But I felt it necessary to clear up the...

Let me chime in hear being that I am the one being spoken of ! I always find it interesting that people like to question 25+ years of experience in shipping fish when they have only received fish or shipped a few :whistle: ! That being said, have you ever received a bag of 10 corys that was...

Yes, we do corydoras & plecos.

Thanks for all the warm welcomes ! We are located in Wellington, Florida where we have 5,000 gallon facility and in Miami we have our 18,000 gallon quarantine facility.

Hello all, Just wanted to drop in and introduce ourselves. Thanks to jollysue for letting me know about this forum !

Actually let me help clear things up ! Better Bettas sells bettas that are domestically raised as well as imports corydoras, plecos, and a few other rare fish. All of our "wild" stock is held in quarantine for 60-90 days before it is released for sale. We import regularly from Peru, Colombia...
