and this is my setup (hopefully this works aswell)
i left everything at the back so there is plenty of space for the female to hide and its clear up the front so the male can build his bubblenest.
hopefully ill get some nice fry :D oh btw sorry about not getting any pics of them flaring, they wouldn't stay still for long.

I love your boys color but, I'm going to sqy find a different female. VT X CT will give you messy fins.

Finding a female was the hard part for me. I can find HMPK, VT and CT males but only VT females, thats the only reason i was using her. I was hoping tha tIf i breed them i would get some CT females and could then use her for breeding CT's. Im guessing HMPK X VT will give even messier fins then?

The pet stores and aquariums around my area only carry Fan tail females. The only way that you can get other tail types is if you request it from your local aquarium ( If they are willing to do that) or buy it off Fishchick65 from Brisbane, and have her ship it to you.

Thats what I'm doing, just have to finsh off the last details before she ships them over to WA.

You could also import them from Thailand through aquabid. But they generally cost the same as getting fishes from Fishchick, as all she charges are the price of the fish and the fee to import them to Australia. Plus shipping of course.

Right now she has a black blue red half moon for $30 dollars with around $20 dollars shipping to Perth.

If you need a female soon, she has some nice colours but her anal fin is quite long.
She also has some nice males, you should check her out on youtube.

Search fishchick65 up on youtube

If you're after a specific betta you can email or ring Jodi-Lea and she generally will take a look for you. It can take a few days to get a response back at times as she is understandably busy.

I got a nice blue CT female from her for only 15 dollars and her imported HM/HMPK females generally start at around $30-35.00 plus postage.

Cannot say enough about how good the fish she stocks are. Plus I enjoy supporting a store that humanely treats their bettas. I would ask if she has any matched pairs of CT bettas if that's what you want to breed as they won't be nearly as expensive as HMs or HMPKs.

Hehe I am the one that bought the Surf's Up pair in her latest lot of vids as I wanted the girlie for my sorority.

Oh wow, I emailed her to inquire about that female :p she looks amazing :)

I remember loading up youtube and seeing the surfs up, the latest video being sold almost immediately.

Looks like the Aussies on this forum have been snagging up the pretty bettas >:D I myself just bought the Midnight Sun pair from Jodi :)

I wish she could ship here but she does supply Australia with some awesome bettas!

You guys are the lucky ones. It's so much cheaper and easier to get bettas in over there from what I've read.

Here it is between 22-27 dollars per fish for transhipping, and then it is a 7 day enforced quarantine wait. Then you have to pay to get them expressed posted which is another $20 or so.

Plus Jodi-Lea is the only real one to offer these services so if she ever sells or stops doing it for the public, someone will need to step in.

To get 3 pairs of HM bettas off AB cost me $168.50 once I'd paid the purchase price of around $90 to the sellers.
