It is best left untouched for a couple of weeks, during this time water (same temperature as the water inside the tank) can be added to the tank in order to dilute the waste substances. The movement of water inside the tank should be very low as it can break the bubble nest. after eggs are laid, the male betta (parent) should be the only fish in the tank and after two to three days, he should also be removed from the tank in order for the fry to develop. Otherwise the fry (baby fish) get eaten.

How do you take care of the tank when you have a male and female betta in the same tank so that you don't disturbe the eggs if there are any and how do you know if there are eggs in the tank?

Bettas are bubble nest builders so if there are eggs they will be in a mass of bubbles at the surface of the tank. A male Betta will not tolerate another Betta in its tank with him so if you have two Bettas in a tank they are either too young to fight or they are two females that will not normally fight. To clean the tank you should put the fish into a large container containing water of the same temperature as that of the Bettas tank. You clean the tank properly and set it up (not forgetting to add some chlorine remover) and equalise the temperature before returning the fish.

both fish may eat the fish eggs, so i suggest you place the eggs in a small bowl or glass of water that you fill from the betta's tank. also, female and male bettas can e together. it is just the same gender that fight. So, you can put both bettas together and keep the eggs in the now vagant tank.

A tiny bit of unadulterated, finely shredded, tuna flesh would be OK occasionally, provided the Betta recognises it as food. On no account leave any uneaten food in the tank it will foul the water and kill the Betta.

Do betta fish lay how long do betta fish live for?

You mean betta fish, right? Betta fish cna lay eggs if you have two of the opposite gender in the same tank. If you have a male and female betta in one tank, they won't fight. If you have two females or two males, they will fight. So, you could see if they get allong. ig the bettas do lay eggs, they can still live together, but you MUST place tyhe eggs in a seperate tank, or they'll most likely be eatten. As for the lifecycle of a betta fish, if properly cared for, they can live for years. Two years is very old for some fish, but one man had a goldfish for 13 years!
