Question
How Do I get My Bettas to Mate?How do I Know If They Are Mating?I Heard That After The Mating Is Over, The Male Kills The Female.If It Happens Then What Happens To The Eggs?  

Answer
Hey Kumiko,

It sounds to me like you're a complete new breeder, and you need a full, deep, detailed explination on how to breed and care for breeders. I'd love to spend an hour and write out a short novel for you on just that, but I'm limited for space. Instead, i'll refer you to a great website where i turn to when i have questions on betta that i cant answer!

Www.Bettatalk.Com

That there is my betta fact resource! There is a great article on how to breed, how to care for breeders (so neither parent dies) and how to tend fry while they grow!

Hope this helps out, and best wishes! Good luck breeding!
