Thanks. Daddy is still doing a great job with his keeping after them little ones. Hes expanded his bubble nest and its now covering almost HALF of the tank!!!! Its HUGE. Hes making me proud!!!

 

[GuppyDude]

lol im glad hes doin good, how are they babys? how many do u got?

 

[AmberC]

Babies are trying REALLY hard to swim around now. They aren't just falling out of the nest, they are trying to swim. Daddy is still with them and keeps putting them back in the nest. As for how many... I'm not really sure. Theres a lot, but I dont think theres 100. I dont know. We'll see

Smaller spawns are better,trust me.Under a 100 sounds like a good batch

i must have said congrats like 5 times now, but this is super exciting! isn't it cute the way they try to swim, and then suddenly just stop and falling, and daddy hasto catch them all over again

how long has he been in there now?

Congrats! Sounds like Daddy is doing an awesome job

 

[GuppyDude]

thats good, its probably alot easyier to take care of a smaller spawn. wat time do u think ur gunna remove daddy?

 

[AmberC]

Well Its been a day and a half since they hatched (probably closer to two days) since hes been in there. He is still being really good about putting them back into the nest. Hes very diligent! I think when they all start swimming a little better I am going to take him out. Hes an AWESOME daddy!! Hes GOT to be getting tired!!! I'm glad I'm only having ONE!!! lol

(for those who haven't seen the post... I'M PREGNANT!!)

 

[cutecotton]

CONGRATULATIONS!

back to ur bettas: good to know daddy isn't hungry yet you better give him some extra bloodwroms for all this work that he's doing

 

[GuppyDude]

i dunno about feeding the daddd, won't it tempt him to taste test the fry?

 

[JoKeR]

I think CC means after hes done

Also CONGRATS On the Babies.....

Thats an awesome picture Wuv I think u should post that pic in the breeding section. So people know how betta babies look like when there hanging from the nest

lol Thanks everyone. Daddy is still doing FABULOUS tonight. I think I am going to take him out tho. Babies are all doing really well swimming around. Still a little bouncy but I dont think I have very long. Plus I think Daddy is really tired. Hes not eaten any, but I think he can rest now. Hes done a great job. I dont think they need him anymore.
