No neccessarily. The male fish will usually eat any dead ova. He will normally look after good ones, pick them out of the gravel, and put them back in the nest until they become free swimming fry.
yes Bettas do lay eggs . i have one of my own females lay the eggs .. the gees look like little bubbles on top .
They lay eggs
No, because Bettas lay eggs and livebearers don't. Livebearers have already hatched fry.
No they cant. Female bettas carry eggs that the males squeeze out of them during mating, then the males fertillise them.
Bettas and goldfish
No
Salmon are born at the bottom of stream and river beds in the form of almost translucent eggs. The female Salmon will cover the eggs with gravel from the rocky stream or lakebed. The nest is called a Redd.
another betta breeder
I have always had gravel at the base of my Betta breeding tanks. The male will collect the eggs before they reach the gravel provided the tank has at least 10 inches depth of water.
In the fall. Female makes a gravel "redd" by fanning on gravel to remove sediment and making a small indent in river bottom. Female lies on redd and then releases eggs. Males are eagerly waiting behind the female to fertilize! Whoo Hoo!
the answer is 12 boy.
Redds
