New Betta

[splashluff]

She's precious! I love the tiny bit of purple/red on her caudal

Just an FYI, breeding bars are light in color - which is why it's almost impossible to see them on light-colored girls. You can tell if she's ready if she is full of eggs, and showing lots of interest in the male and hopefully going in the tail-up pose. Good luck with spawning! It's definitely one of the hardest things I've done but it has been really fun. I hope it's rewarding for you!

i'll accept your compliment and politely ignore your other comment

But, what are you going to do with all the babies, especially if you have a large spawn?

Bet you a nickel he's going to eat them

Hehe, I think that reply was one of those "I don't care to hear your opinion" kind of things.

Someone said breeding bars were light on bettas? My girls have had dark bars with light gaps I suppose its to do with the colouring of the betta?

Anyhow I think you should give it a go if you want! Personally I think you would get nice babies from that pair! IMO!

Thank you! Yeah, I'm going to give it a go maybe this weekend or early next week. She's definitely interested in him i'll check tonight if she looks full of eggs and there are a ton of bubbles all around bourei's tank. And hey, if I am overwhelmed after first spawning, then i know, just don't spawn them again, but I'm pretty sure it'll turn out ok...

Make sure you have a brine shrimp hatchery if you do have a go lol! Even if she isnt full of eggs she'll still have some so you wont have a large spawn!
