Betta (dad) and fry (kids)

Question
I would like to figure out when the male Betta should come out of the tank. after the fry have hatched. he is really busy catching them and putting them back into the nest that he's getting tired. i don't know if the fry can have liquid food yet or any type of food. I want to be able to give away bettas to my friends but i need to keep them alive.

Answer
Hi Chris,
I am sending you a website that I have used alot in the past that has alot of information that I think you would like to read. It is a really good website and very informative on just about anything you need to know about Bettas.

You might want to read alot of the other stuff that is on this website since she sells alot of Bettas and seems to know what she is doing. Best of luck with your babies?
Hope this helps,
Karen
