i just put my 2 bettas in at 5:00 last night at first they were chaing and hiding over and over now they just see each other and dont care is this normal
If they are still ignoring one another, pull them and try again later. Keep them carded where they can't see each other all day. Let them see each other about 30min to an hour a day.
I learned as well, going through what you have I'm sure. It finally took me 3 months to get everything figured out and get the spawn finally that dad didn't eat. Don't get discourgaged.
