[Smile4Me2Night]

Okay, so I have made the decision to start breeding my most favorite creature!

Id love some tips and how you all started?

Ill be a total newbie to it so feel free to load me up on the information and any other help.

Thanks!! :D

By the way, Im still in the researching process. I dont have any Bettas or tanks or anything. I want to make sure I do it all right from the start!! :P

Thanks! I am already in contact with a breeder near me :P

And thats a great website! Thank you!

Im curious what do you guys prefer feeding them? Im getting mixed signals about just flakes or some live food?

Get vinegar eels for there first feed. There a guy on aquabid that sells his for like 2 or 3 dollar and it's free shipping. Vinegar eels is good because some frys that are born are too small to eat baby brine shrimp. Then after that BBS because betta fry doesn't like flake food that much.

welcome to the addicting world of bettas.

Definitely Live foods for fry.

Thats what I was thinking :P

And then what about adults?
