I got betta fry yesterday and today they are freely swimming and they have yolk sac. And i lost all daphnia which i raised. And infusoria is still not produced in banana peels. So i dont have any idea to keep them alive except egg yolk. Im searching daphnia but can we keep them alive for 4-5...

I got small 3 fry and one around 15cm snakehead. All fry have black dot on end of dorsal fin. And they have dull colour pattern like orange and at base of mouth dull blue. Is it channa bleheri or any other snakehead have black dot on end of dorsal fin?

Can we culture any live food for snakehesds?

I got rainbow snakehead (12-13cm). I feed him bloodworms. I want to know what else they will eat because its hard to find bloodworms everyday. Will he eat pellets which is used for catfish?

Yes i thought so but at this moment he started breeding. I was taking him out but finally he started breeding :D . But female is not releasing eggs. He wrapping her but still eggs are not coming out. She is almost 1 year old. She has bulky tummy with eggs but not releasing

Last time i asked question about same male. He looks big and older. He was not making bubble nest. When i placed him in breeding tank he is making bubble nest but not bigger as my other males do. I placed female and she was ready to spawn. She was going under bubble nest and floating upside down...

I found pic of this snakehead. I wanted to know what species is it and what size they grow

No i dont feed male when fry are there. Because when i bred him first time i fed him when fry were present and he ate all fry. So i feed male when i take him out from spawning tank.

Water level was shallow

I bred him 4th time and out of 4 he ate 2 spawn. Im unable to understand on which situation he ate all fry. This time i conditioned him for 2 weeks fed 3 times a day. And i fed both of them when i out them in breeding tank with separator until female become ready to spawn. But in 2 days he made...

Ohh. What kind of snakeheads are those? I would like to see pics of them if you have any :)

:) I have bettas, swordtail, zebra danios, gaint danios, guppy, pleco, koi, molly etc. Small fishes. But im looking for snakehead baby (channa andrao or channa orientalis) but its hard to find one. Tell me if you know someone having those kind of fishes :)

Use it if its not fin rot. Normal water or bore water cause such problems with long fin bettas.

:D. Bro dont worry. I have halfmoon betta. His tail was getting rotten. I asked on this forum also. Colin and others helped lot. And one thing is working for me. Clean almond leaves and put in tap water and boil it. After cooling down add dechlorinator drops as per suggested on label. And keep...

Yes. Females too make bubble nest sometimes but i never seen this big nest made by female. You can give it a try to see if its male or female. Condition him/her and then put him/her with another female for breeding. If he breed then male and if not then female. You can watch videos on youtube...

Yup. Im from maharashtra. Are you too from india?

When they get about 800gm - 1kg they used to eat here. Mostly channa striata is used for eating. They dont grow that big :)

It was winter i think. Snakeheads are hardy fish and native to india. So it was new for me that they got sick. Because in medium water streams i have seen them. Also i went to find baby snakeheads but haven't found any yet :) . That pond was on farm and its sides above 4 feet from ground

He sent only this pic. And this one is no more. He bought 10000 baby fish for fish farming. But few months later they got any disease and all died. Dealer of baby fish said it is snakehead but i dont find him snakehead. Its anal fin is very short and dorsal too. It looks like bowfin to me. Have...

My friend bought such baby fish. He told me that it is snakehead. But i think it may be bowfin fish or something else. Is it looks like snakehead?

This time im changing water quality. Lets see if i find any male this time :)

Even in real life that i never get that much females in my life but in betta all females ;D

I was excited to see their fins because i crossed different tail type. But all time i got females only and not a single male. So was little bit disappointed. But im sure this time ill get at least one male :)

Which process? Breeding? I dont had fun. Couple had fun i think :D

Ya when they were small size i fed them microworms and copepods, baby daphnia mix for some period then i continued mosquito larvae. But other fry getting bigger but i dont understand only this fry is not growing well. I think if they dont get nutrients properly then other fry should not grow...

I bred plakat male and halfmoon female it was second spawn and before 7 days VT fry were born. After that i placed both spawn in same tank and after few days i noticed many fry from second spawn was eaten by first spawn fry. And only one fry left from 2nd spawn so i kept him seperate and other...

Can we feed dragonfly larvae to betta? :D

What is deworming?

I ordered plakat male online for breeding. But he seems older and not making bubble nest.

Is there anyone having experience with boiled indian almond water used for betta? One of my friend told me to use boiled water with almond leaves. But good bacteria will also die after boiling water. Is it good for fish to use such water?

This is her current pic. She is grown most of her fins now. I had only female banded gourami but its hard to get male banded gourami at my place

This is her old pic. Im out of town so dont have current pic

She is 1 year old.she has eggs in her belly but not breeding. I tried with 3 males but all time she get teared her fins but still not breeding. Other females are breeding within 2 days. But dont know whats the problem with her

I just love the look. They looks like dragon. My tank is 31 inch long x 8 inch wide. Is it sufficient for that fish?

This is new thing for me that female 3 spot gourami could become that aggressive.
