    hello guys

    can you guys help me out... my better half wants to breed Betas so we got a pair of halfmoons over the weekend and i know there are many different ways to breed them and most ppl never have them in the same tank... but my LPS told me that this pair had already paired off and where fine being in the same tank as long as there are other fish... is this ok? and when do they start breeding? and how many fry can come from one batch of eggs? as you can see i am pretty clueless here

    Only females can live together in a community tank, but once I had a pair stay together for weeks and bred. But be safe and separate them. Now google and read as much as you can until you understand these fish breeding them is not that easy.

    This thread will give you a better idea of breeding them Breeding Bettas - My Way

    Not a problem, they are very nice fish to keep but when it comes to breeding them do your home work! even if the pair bred with no problems once you have fry you are daddy
