kristaml24 Posted March 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 18, 2010 Hi Nikki Fredv is a Halfmoon betta - gorgeous colour was very fortunate to actually rescue him from someone who was going to get rid of him! Wow you certainly have alot of bettas! Im looking forward to expanding my collection with more halfmoons although some crowntails have caught my eye! I agree we should figure this breeding thing togeather maybe that way we might be more successful! What sort of setup do u currently have at the moment for your bettas?

littleangel Posted March 18, 2010 Report Share Posted March 18, 2010 i know crowntails are nice..... but i still like halfmoons better - maybe its just because they cost so damn much!!! well at the moment my set up is a bit of an issue.... as when i got them all a week ago i had 6 juveniles in together. but of course they are now starting to get agressive and some are making nests, so ive had to slip them up. so at the moment i have my main tank just over 2 ft long - split into six sections across the front and one section in the back. so in this tank at the moment i have 4 juveniles in the back section in a plastic splitter container so they cant fight. so far i think these 4 are female. and the grown female are in the front sections separately - i have tried a couple together and looks like they are going to do some serious damage. i have two juvenile -male i think in huge wine glasses in my bathroom on the vanity. -dont judge me, cos im hoping to win an aqua one 75 lt tank in the next couple of days..... oh and my 3 males in a 3 split tank. but only one is a halfmoon, the others are crowtails - pretty pointless because i have all halfmoons. so i think im going to give them to my mum.... and then there is my breeding tank a two foot that has been divided down the centre. until about 10 minutes ago i has still hoping for some luck, but i dont think the first time is gunnawork... so after im done here im going to transfer my two male juveniles each into half of the breeding tank i feel like it never ends and its only been a week!!!
