Super Tips For New Betta Breeding Enthusiasts
Yes it is true that Betta Breeding cane make you a healthy profit. However this only happens if you learn the right skills use the best knowledge. When Betta breeding it is all about knowing good Betta fish care because you can easily make mistakes. These tips are something I learned from going through this process a few times. Hope they help and come to good use.
1. Learning and knowing these points by heart will guarantee you more success.
2. If you Betta fish are already 5 months old and fully acclimated to their tanks then you can start preparing them for breeding. Remember that you can safe both money and time by always focusing on good Betta fish care.
3. Are you ready to begin? Nice, then put the two tanks (female in one and male in the other) close to one another. You do not want to put the fish in the same tank right away. There is a reason why these are named Siamese fighting fish! Keeping them separate but close together will slowly make the comfortable with each other.
4. At some point the male will make a bubble nest at the top of the tank and this is a sign that he’s ‘ready’. The female will sometimes also give a sign in the form of colorful stripes developing.
5. When the bubble nest looks nice you bring the female over and soon you will see her releasing eggs in the hundreds, perhaps up to a thousand. Then the male will take over the situation and she will hide as he is now in charge of protecting the young. You should quickly remove the female or the male might attack her as he defends the territory.
6. Hopefully you will see swimming little fish as the eggs have hatched. At this point you remove the male so he won’t eat any of them.
7. During all this process, which takes about 2 weeks, you should not replace any water. You have to be precise when feeding the fish because if you overfeed them the water will become cloudy and dirty.
8. After these two weeks, when you start replacing the water again you should also begin to separate the fish into other tanks. Now you are ready to sell them for a healthy profit!
By reading these tips I hope you gain some knowledge and confidence to dive into the world of Betta breeding.
