Welcome to the loony bin!

Congrats on the spawn and welcome back! Can't wait to see them grow and what you get from them

Almost a year later and I finally have some wilds! Betta Gunung Raja (and they have bred) Betta Bellica Betta Brownorum Betta Falx And I plan on getting a pair of Betta Channoides VERY soon!

Well...this post aged well...lol (no wilds)

Edithae are a nice species. ​

Male is my Red BF VT that won 1st place in the VT class in the BBB Show in September Female was bred by me from this spawn. She is the sister of the female used in my Koi spawn. She has a nice broad dorsal that I hope to pass on to the offspring. Introduced - 5th NovemberSpawned - 6th NovemberHatched - 7th NovemberFree Swimming - 8th NovemberFemale removed 6th NovemberMale removed 8th NovemberFirst food - Microworms Fed 4 times a day from 8th November Jarrod

1st feed of BBS tonight! Found some slightly bigger fry (12) in a waste water bucket. One of my assumed failed spawns that I removed and stripped the tanks down on must have actually bred. I am hoping it is my Steel Blue HM pair. I have put them in with this spawn. I'll update their progress here until I can identify who they are... Jarrod

This is a spawn I waited a couple of months to do. Male is a Koi I either picked up at the Vic Betta show, or the BBB show auctions (I purchased one at each.) The female is a young red female from my July spawn (Marble x Orange Show PKs). The females matured faster than the males and have turned out to be good breeders. Introduced - Friday 30th OctoberSpawned Tuesday - 2nd NovemberHatched - Wednesday - 3rd NovemberFree Swimming - Thursday 4th November First Foods - MW 4 times a day Starting BBS Hatchery Saturday - 6th November

Welcome to the forum! Plenty to read up on here - it has been a great resource to me for years

OK - Closing off this log. Fish are all jarred and growing nicely. Next time anyone sees them will be at a future show and spawn...

18 jarred so far

Just a quick uplate. Ready to start jarring: Jarrod

7 Weeks old now! Jarrod

Ooh...filling out nicely! Great macro shots Jarrod

Results of mine so far (7 weeks) are similar - a lot of solids, some bicolours and a lot with black banding to their fins (too thin to refer as butterfly) no cellophane and no marble to speak of. Will see whether the marbling will kick in after a few more weeks Jarrod
