    Aqarium Silicone is used to silicone the deviders in place. I built the tank myself.

    I need some advice from experienced Betta breeders,

    my Red VT male built a stunning bubble nest,Put my Blue CT female in with him in his tank, he showed lots of interest while she was in the chimney, left them overnight, nest is even more impressive the next morning, he is showing his sides to the female she is showing her vertical bars, so i released the female into the tank.

    At first there is no aggression then he started chasing here around the tank, watched them, left her over night in with him, next morning her fins, are torn up she is hiding in the corner, so i removed her and place her back into her own tank.

    Decided to try my Red HM female with him seeing that there is no eggs in the bubbles,

    Same process same result.
    Huge nest no eggs.....

    What do i do now?
