well you have to have a large aquareum and let the male have space and then they might fight i little but they will know what to do
put a female and a male together the male will start to bump into the female or into the walls and it will get the female in the mood.after then the female will drop an eggs and the male will put them in the nest.when they hatch remove the female because the male will think she will kill the babies.after then the male will guard.
If you mean " how do they reproduce?" then the simple answer is the female lays eggs (ova) when the male embraces her and then they are fertilised by the male. In more detail. As she releases her eggs the male releases his milt (sperm) which fertilises them. The male fish then separates from the female and collects the eggs in his mouth and blows them into a nest of bubbles that he built before starting the spawning process. They continue this process of press collect for some time until the female is spawned out. After spawning is finished the male will care for the eggs and young until he thinks the young are able to look after themselves.
Bettas are egg layers. The male will blow a cluster of bubbles on the surface of the water and flare his fins at the female to impress her (kind of like a peacock). When the male and female are both willing, the female lays eggs and the male fertilizes them. Then the male will then carry the eggs up to the bubblenest, where he protects them until they hatch.
i recommend not doing that unless you have $100 to spend. you need 2 5 gallon tanks, a 10 gal. tank with a sponge filter and a heater, gravel for the tanks, live plants, accesories for the tanks, a styrofoam cup. The 'fry' (baby bettas) need fry fish food every four hours too!
The most common place to get a Betta is at a pet shop. Please remember though that a Betta is a tropical fish and will need a heater as well as the basic rules for keeping any fish which are as follows :- 1 inch of fish needs at least 1 gallon of water. All fish need a cycled filter running 24/7. Every tank needs to have at least 50% of its water changed weekly. If you do not do ALL of the above things you will keep loosing fish. Every successful aquarist knows and lives by the above rules. A Betta grows to almost 3 inches long so it needs a minimum of 3 gallons of water. If the pet shop tell you any different, they are either uneducated and do not know the facts, or they are bare faced liars and you should take your trade somewhere else.
You must have a very large tank. 1st things 1st you have to have a large enough tank to make the females happy. which would have to be 1 gal per female. Then you would have to add about 2 gal for the male (he likes lots of space) you must always keep them in odd numbers (females like odd numbers) if you do it right then the least that will happen is the females will come up with a picking order. fins will be nipped but that will be the least. but be careful watch them if the male starts getting aggressive then take him out he will kill the females if you let him. get more info on betta and follow me on my blog at *the link provided below.
They roll with passion after the male builds a bubbly nest of love.
You condition the Female, then you put the female in the tank, next the female jumps out and breeds. Do more research, and don't give up. It took me three months until my bettas finally bred.
if you look at the males bubble nest, there will be little tan or white specks a little more than 2x the size of the period of this sentence. .
Put more then one female with a male
betta fish are specifically bred for fighting
When your Betta fish is fasting it means it is not eating, this usually happens after the Betta has bred and it will not eat until all the Betta eggs are hatched.
You don't. Those fish are bred and born to fight each other. Keep them in seperate tanks. Sorry :(
No. The ones you buy in the stores are bred by people. In their native habitat there are a lot of them.

The betta fish that you buy at Walmart or a pet shop are raised in captivity and bred for their long fins and rich colors. The original betta(Betta spendens) came from Siam, now Thailand, where it lives in small ponds. The wild fish is smaller and not as colorful as its domestic counterpart, but just as feisty with others of its kind.
There are so many different colour variations of Betta that red streaks in blue fins are quite common as are blue streaks in red fins. All it means is that the fish are cross bred.
No betta fish are carnivores.
other Betta fish and the bigger fish.
Betta fish do not eat fish.
Well there are lots of types of fins for betta fish. my betta fish has a long stringy tail and fins, but my female has short average fins. most have plain fins. mine is the only one i have seen in my area with a stringy tail. most fish have stringy tails if they are sick but not mine he was bred to be like that. depending on the fish and the area well there are lots of things that are considered normal for bettas.
Well, if you love your Betta fish, then it should live by itself. But if you add another Betta to your current Betta fish's tank, then they will start a fight because Betta Fish are Siamese fighting fish and if one Betta is in contact of another Betta, the possible reason would be a fight between them two.
