Raising Show Quality Bettas

Lessons Learned

I’ve been raising bettas for a few years now and have learned a few things along the way. I have had flooded floors and a had a few sick fish and over time have learned the best way to proceed or at least what to avoid. So in this area I am going to share with you my mistakes and in the process, hopefully, help you to avoid them. I am just starting this page so give me a bit of time to get it together and feel free to share any of your lessons learned.

  1. Hi, sorry to bother. I was wondering if you had any females for sale currently. I’m not looking for show quality or the flashiest available, just hopefully decently tempered ones for a personal sorority tank.

    Thanks!

    • I have some sorority type metallic females I can get rid of. Will be moving soon and down sizing. How may do you want? Might want to come over to bettasource.com. I can be reached by a pm there much faster. I have moved some of the posts from this blog to there and we have a nice forum too. I tend to spend more time writing for that site than here.

  3. Do you ship “babies”? I recently purchased several of these from Petco which I think must be 2-3 months old (female, about an inch long). What is your pricing/”baby” female and do you give quantity discounts?
