Fancy HMPK Spawn Log

[LittleBettaFish]

Well dad ate his eggs. Saw two still in there and they were fuzzy so I think they must have been bad from the start. They just did not look like my wild betta eggs at all. They were really really tiny.

Going to try again in a couple of weeks so I can get everything set-up properly downstairs and fix my BBS hatchery.

I let her out and after a few minutes of showing off by the male they have started wrapping under the nest. Hoping things go well as I really want some fancy HMPK females out of them.

It's always funny watching them spawning for the first time and the female gets stunned. My males never know what the heck to do.

That male is G-O-R~G-E-O~U-S

Yeah he is. Just wish he was thicker rather than being such a scrawny looking thing. He now gets to hang out in the sorority in a breeder's net since I need that tank for my killies haha. Can spend some time learning the art of seduction.
