Show me those nests!!! =D my CT/PK (anyone got a name for him? x.x I've run out of names xDD) is in my breeding tank, and despite being inexperienced, the female Meghan has pitched in with the nest, and it's a HUGE nest! Even my boyfriend exclaimed when he looked. I've got some foam wrapping stuff around the edges so they are not disturbed by movement, the water is at 4 inches, there are live plants, and 2 hidey spots... Both have been dancing, she shows her submission lines, and even plays chicken or go with flaring with him :lol: She's become the man he's along for the ride!!

Second one is lovely Shiloh's nest - after I got him, he was in a 0.5 for healing up his injuries dealt from some vicious fish! A couple days of having him he made this for the morning He passed away recently, but he was a real fighter to the very end, and passed peacefully at an old age for the shape he was in <3

So, what's your betta(s)'s nest, and story?

hahaha why does it say bubblest? ... ... weird xD (autocorrect? )

Not sure if this is a nest or not, I don't think it is, what else could cause it to bubble?

Betta Lover - you got some nest-makers there lol!!!

Sometimes my filters do it? Stagnant water has protein deposits on top of the water and when disturbed say by movement, it can bubble it... Conditioners bubble when new... other than that I'd say it would be a nest :lol:

Ok. that's probably it then. I did a small water change in the betta's tanks yesterday, so it's more than likely the conditioner/filter deal. Nobody else has bubbles, but considering it's closer to the filter than anything else, I think it's that!

 

[Sena Hansler]

probably :lol: never know - I've had a betta build on filter bubbles and made a nest :roll:

My proud papa always builds nests. This was his most recent before spawning.

 

[Sena Hansler]

oh nice thick bubble nest =D

 

[lvandert]

lol Thats what I said. My other boys go for width, this boy goes for height. His highest was 1/2 inch off the surface of the water

 

[Sena Hansler]

dang!!! lol. my CT/PK made it REALLY wide D: the female is helping :lol: it's so cute <3

 

[lvandert]

it's cute when they help each other!

 

[Sena Hansler]

yep :lol: so now I wonder if the nest is half hers? xD

if you poke it and instantly disappears (pops rapidly) then it is from the filter, since bubble nest have saliva of the betta that makes it kinda sticky and some will get caught on your hand
and thanks
my avi has puddles, he marbled on me ;-) he is my beautiful purple/red marble over rosetail male :-D
