    They won’t eat until day 3, when they start swimming horizontally. You need to get some baby brine shrimp(bbs)…go to your local fish store, NOT regular pet store, and get some frozen bbs, then get a hatchery to hatch your own. I never had success with processed foods, baby bettas need lots of special nutrition. Good luck!

  • Greymoya said:

    Oh, while they are tiny you can also feed frozen daphnia or cyclops, you local fish store should have those and bbs. But many people feed bbs only, all the way to adulthood, it’s very nutritious!

    they are the cutest bettas ever. My bettas had 200 but only 30 lived. That was my first spawn though. Well they have to be 1 year now. I bet they are cute.

    can anybody tell me what will happen if I breed a male crowntail with a normal female?

  • Tarantulaboy1997 said:

    u will have normal.

  • kangled said:

    you’de mostly get crowntail fry because of the fathers genes

  • jayson0408 said:

    i give micro worms from rotten oatmeal, it was like your fry will grow faster than any live foods!! just put a cereal solution on a plastic covered box ant let it there till micro worms appear.

    aww….. thats so cute!!.. did you buy yours from a store or breeder?? or what?? i wish i had bettas that arent from stores… because they seem so antisocial and i hate how they keep them in a cup…

  • Greymoya said:

    Well, they ARE antisocial, you can’t keep them together or they will kill each other. Only for breeding them, then you have to separate them again. I got these from a breeder that you can order from online, Great White Betta, google him, he’s got gorgeous fish!

  • hotpinkcrayon99 said:

    wow u got 2 white bettas. cool. where did u get them??

  • kangled said:

    nice opaque pair

  • 41eg6 said:

    nice but its highly recommended not to use the filter until they r 1-2 week old….

  • Greymoya said:

    It’s a sponge filter, which IS okay to use at all stages because fry can’t get pulled into it. The eggs/fry were fine :)

  • 41eg6 said:

    oh…well as long as it works for u….just get a value to adjust the air pumpin through…strong current for little ones will stress n die….but still nice pair…any vids of them at adult age..

  • jakechan99 said:

    why is the Harker’s tail so small?
    arent HMs tails suppose 2 b bigger?

  • Greymoya said:

    They were only about 3-4 months old at this spawning. His tail got longer as he got older.

  • mrjoshua02233 said:
