Bettas are bubblenest breeders. Occasionally a pair will wrap and produce eggs without the male having built a nest, or with a nest that is incomplete and will not support eggs. Usually this happens with inexperienced pairs and/or poor management by the breeder (ie letting the female out too soon). The pair will probably eat the eggs. If they do not, you can remove the eggs and put them in a shallow dish (1 inch of water) and float them in a heated tank; some may hatch although it is not likely. If you do get fry, start feeding them when they are free swimming on the second or third day after hatching.

Do you have to take the female out when the male Betta fish doesn't make the bubble nest?

The male Betta splendens always builds a bubble nest and entices the female under it in order to get her to spawn. If the nest is not to her liking she will not spawn with him. So I guess the answer is no. There must be a bubble nest for them to spawn under and for the male to tend the eggs in.


What does the first bubble in a bubble nest look like?

It can not be mistaken for anything else. It is a tiny bubble at the surface of the water but it will not be a single bubble for more than a minute or two. The male Betta builds his nest quite rapidly.

Your betta doesnt make bubble nest?

Your betta will only make a bubble nest if there is a female present in the tank typically by placing her in a breeder tank available at most local fish stores. Also I would suggest to have some floating plants, and some sort of plants so that the bubble nest can be anchored.
