The male Betta will build a bubble nest at the top of his tank signalling he is ready to breed. A female will display horizontal stripes to signal she is. The two should now be introduced and carefully monitored. They will dance and the male will squeeze out the eggs and place them into the bubbles of the nest. The female should be removed at this point or she will become his next victim. The male will care for the eggs and catch any that fall to replace them into the protective bubbles of the nest. Once the eggs have hatched either the new fry or the male should be removed or a cannibalistic act will ensue.
