How my bettas recovered... :)

[BeautifulBetta123]

Have you done any research!! Obliviously not why because no one in there right mind would put two betas together unless prepared for spawning! I am screaming at you!
Your male has crappy finnage his tail should be rounder and shorter and his body shape smoother. Your fish are pet store betas that you are breeding why? Just to bring more lives into this world to suffer! You are an irresponsible breeder who I now dislike. You can't afford nicer pairs? Well then how in your right mind do you expect to pay for the supplies required to properly raise these fish? And when you get 100 baby vt that no one will want as they can go pick up one from any pet store for three bucks and they get to chose from tons of different colors how do you expect to sell your fish? Huh? Well then we get to your set up... Where is your grow out, IAL, cultures, fry food, Fish permanent homes, sponge filters, jars, heaters, ect?
You are one of those people who would mass breed these gorgeous fish for chain stores and who don't care about the well being of them.
Betas should have a chance to shine, live happily, and be healthy and you are not giving them that.
I am a breeder dedicated to the well being and love of these animals and you are not in my good books

Ask most people and they will say I am a nice person who cares about her fish and the well being of this species. I however dislike your ideas of breeding these fish. I like people who try new techniques after all here might be a better way but YOU ARE DOING WHAT WE HAVE PROVEN TO NOT WORK AND IS DANGEROUS FOR YOU FISH YET YOUR IGNORANT MIND SEEMS NOT TO CARE ABOUT ANYTHING BUT THE POSSIBLE MONEY YOU MIGHT GET NOT RHAT YOU WELL GET ANY!!!!!!!!!!!! I am SCREAMING AT THE TOP OF MY LUNGS RIGHT NOW I AM SO MAD AT YOU!!!!!!!!!

Bb123 be careful...

[BeautifulBetta123]

I will not be careful in an attempt to simply state the truth! I only ever got in a fight once before...
What this person is doing is wrong and I simply want to state the facts showing they are!

[MattsBettas]

You are and I compleatly agree with you, I have been dealing with this same person on a different thread. But mods might not like what you are saying.

[BeautifulBetta123]

I won't get any money. The bettas are approximately 9 months old. The pet stores here take good care of bettas and they sell fast, even VTs. You can read in one of my other threads about the setup.

[MattsBettas]

The pet stores do not take good care if them! Their sorority is grossly overstocked, improperly set up, the girls have no where to hide, and they are all stressed, injured, and clamped. So please stop claiming that. And IMO breeding two veiltails and getting babies that are doomed from the start is not a happy end.

Do you think that these VTs I have magically appeared? No, they were the result of two VT's spawning. Kept in the pet store, obviously, under good conditions (you can see the picture of when I got them if you want to, the male had perfect fins). I got my bettas in one store, the pictures you saw are from another and I the manager who I talked to is from a third store, and all these stores know what they are doing. Stress, fin nipping and such is okay because those bettas are old enough not to be bothered by it for the short time they spend at the store.
