conditioning

[bettaboi]

just curious wut and how do you condition for breeding

 

[OohFeeshy]

What, for breeding? I'd use either bloodworms or adult brine shrimp, both are readily eaten by my guys and gal and can fit in a pipette. Plus they love to chase round the brine shrimp if they're live

 

[Synirr]

I use white worms, bloodworms, and springtails

 

[yeeviabetta]

Live blackworm, live diaphias and bloodworm.

 

[BettasRFriends]

I only feed them live blackworms because I've heard it's the most nutrious and it's pretty cheap at my lfs.

 

[Dorkhedeos]

i feed them boogers and feces with worms coming out of it

Baby brine shrimp is all I feed my bettas. It has been 3 or 4 years since I had no fry of some kind or another so I am always hatching it out anyway and they seem to really like it and do well on it.

John,

I've read that bbs are not appropriate (too large?) until after the first week - do you supplement with anything else before then, or do you find that they do ok with that? I'm hoping you'll confirm that bbs is ok, because that seems to be the only culture I'm having any luck with at the moment.....

Thanks!
