Spawning betta fish

in #esteem7 years ago

Hi, friends.
this time I will discuss how to spawning the type of crowntail betta fish.
talking about spawning is actually not too difficult and not too easy too hehe.
This time I chose a four month old hickey.
if the characteristics of the male fish body slightly slim, and the color is brighter for example like this:

For females they have a slightly larger abdominal trait (because they contain eggs) and have a rather faded or pale hue, for example these are:

before the two are put together, I do a matchmaking system in which the male fish is placed in the spawning container and the female fish is fed into a separate container so as not to be beaten by the male fish, in one place of the spawning container.
and let the male fish make the foam on the surface, because later there he put the eggs from the female

if there is already such foam female fish can be directly united with male fish to spawning.
if the hatch already broke the females should soon be separated, because he will eat his child.
let the males keep babies for a week.
this one-week-old puppies.

and this one when they are 2 weeks old.

which is when the puppies are 2 months old has started coloring light on the body and tail

this 3.5 month old has perfect shape

not all hatchlings can survive, when they first hatch up to hundreds, but over time only a few survive.
oh yes, baby food at the age of a week to 2 weeks I gave him water fleas.
when it is 1 month old can already be fed in the form of mosquito larvae until the next.

So little of the process of betta fish development that I observed, may be useful for friends thanks.
