I would say until they are no longer trying to embrace and no more eggs are being released. (chasing, nipping, etc)

 

Once the eggs have all been released the male will generally chase her to a corner away from the nest (or, in my case, she hid under an IAL directly under it =_= ). You should remove her then.

 

i see, right now my female betta's still active but shes just staying in the corner, whe nshe tries to go near the nest, the male would chase her now. i think this is the sign that i should separate her from the male.

thank you for the replies, this would be my first time to breed, i hope this would be successful. i would be reading all guides about nurturing fries.

ill keep you guys updated when the eggs have hatched.

BTW, 1 more question when will i remove the male betta?

Heres a picture of my male betta.

When the fry are free swimming. If you look on youtube you will find several videos which will show you what to look for.

 

i see, right now i can see some eggs hatched, when they fall they swim back up. some still falling on the floor.

 

You did leave dad in right?

 

Please do not breed without researching the subject.

 

i did read guides from this forum and other sites aswell about breeding, i was just asking for more details. yeah i did, hes busy all day picking up the eggs. i can see those "hair strand like" below the bubble nest.
