  • Jackson was my first Betta. I had him in a 1 gallon for about two months before I got a 5 gallon. He did well in there just make sure you add only one plant. Bettas are surface breathers and they need swimming room. My new boy is currently in a 1 gallon bowl. <br><br>Some people think that that is too small. But it is a huge improvement over the tiny cups they are sold in.
  • wow.<br>you have lovely bettas :D<br>are they all from the pet/fish store?<br>I could never find any CT females at my fish store. I would have had to ship. There was never any problems with males. Just finding any rarish females.<br>You are lucky. Very pretty fish. If you do manage to spawn do let me know :)

  • Oh, and on many sites, they say 2.5 gallons is the minimum tank size for a happy betta. A one gallon would be fine for yours though.

    <br><br>I've gotten them all at different Petsmarts. I'm on a Betta forum and they say that Petco has the best Bettas. I went there yesterday and I wasn't pleased with their stock. They have many Deltas, Halfmoons, Crowns, Veils, and Plakets in males. They only had Crowns and Veils in females. <br><br>But yeah, I was shocked to find both of my CT females at a Petsmart that doesn't usually have females. I just had to have them! <br><br>I have a 10 gallon on its way that I'll be dividing for two males. I also need a spawning tank before I can breed them. I can't wait though!!<br><br>I would LOVE to import some fish from Thailand though. Aquabid.com has some really nice fish!
  • They're adorable! <br>XD<br>You said you need names?<br>How about Apollo?
  • Thanks! I have named the three new ones. <br><br>The orange male is Sunfire or just Sunny. The crowntail female is Kya and the yellow cambodian is Soleil which is French for sun.
  • Hey, I was wondering how is it that you have so many Betta Fish, and none of them are fighting. I have 1 female, and 1 Crowntail Male Betta in a starter kit (small tank with divider) for Bettas. I have to keep them divided because the male wil chase the female around, and won't leave her alone---one time, he bit off a couple of her tail fins. I have had them for a year seperated, and whenever I try to put them together, it hasn't changed. Is it because of the small size tank that they're in? Because, it's amazing to see so many betta's in a tank like yours thats not fighting. <br><br>Any tips will be greatly appreciated on how they get along so well! Thanks. :)

  • Well, unless it is spawning time, I wouldn't recommend keeping males and females together. <br><br>My sorority girls get along pretty well. If you want to keep a sorority tank, make sure you've got lots of hiding palces. The girls don't always get along. However, their aggression is a little more watered down than the males. NEVER keep two males together. <br><br>As mentioned above, the smallest recommend tank size for a Betta is 2.5 gallons. Those little Betta dividers aren't much better than the cups they are sold in. :( I would get a bigger tank/bowl for your pair.
  • We now officially have baby betta fry!<br><br>They are so cute! I'd get some pics up, but my camera sucks. They are so tiny!

  • Genetically, they should all be red or orange. Mostly all red because of the extended red alleles. What a bummer... I was hoping for a yellow cambodian male.
  • I used to breed the show type guppies xD They reproduce like crazy :o<br><br>I sold all my fish and got a 25 cent feeder goldfish from the store, he has actually lasted a long time xD
