you never really know all bettas are different they are usually ready at 11 weeks the female will be fat if she has eggs.
im very bored so if you try to breed them here is what i did:D
remove the male and female betta into a different tank (unless you don't have any other fish). this is what i did my fry are 2 1/2 weeks old now and doing great:D
1:place Styrofoam cup cut longways in tank put it against the wall and put some thing that floats like the end of a plastic plant like the one you put in the fish tank
2: cut of the bottom of a plastic peanut butter jar try to cut as flat as possible its ok if its uneven just put that side up out the female in this thing.
3:drop the water level down to about 4-5 inches this is a must because the eggs sink and the male has to go get them if its to far to swim he will give and stop puting eggs in his nest
4:feed the fish frozen blood worms
5:when the male betta has blown alot of bubbles under the Styrofoam cup floating on the top of the water release the female betta its ok if he rips her fins a little bit (the first female betta i put in with my male betta he riped almost all f her fins of and wouldn't breed with her) if it gets that severe remove the female and try a different female after she lays her eggs remove her
6: 24 to 36 hours later your fry should have hatched (don't worry if they are a day or 2 late mine where)
7: 2-4 days later the fry should be free swimming (again if they are a little late r early its ok mine when...wow what didnt go wrong with mine?) now remove the male betta now you need to feed the fry i feed my hard boil egg yolk and water mixed together. they prob wont swim by it they eat it out of the water you can't see them doing it
8:your tank is getting dirty 1-2 weeks later take a turkey baster and suck up the junk off the bottom and put water in a bowl to look for betta fry remove betta fry with spoon put back in tank
9: 3 week old betta fry start breathing from the air now so you have to spray the water with water so its humid in the air in the tank s when they take there first breath there lungs don't shrivel up and die.
well mine are not passed this yet so do some research on 3 week old betta fry and older good luck:D

Betta fish 2 years old maybe overfed his stomach swelled and then a white spot appeared in his side he won't eat much and sinks to the bottom a lot and is not making his bubbles what do I do?
I think your betta fish is a female. I'm assuming that it is pregnant because female betta fish have a white spot on their stomach if they're pregnant. If you have another male fish, [ but he has to be ready to mate. You can tell if he is ready if he is creating a bubble nest.] try putting them together. Before you do that, try looking for infos on them first [just in case]. I don't want things to go wrong because I might've told you the wrong things. I'm just a child that happens to take care of 2 betta fish and doesn't know about them much.. I'm not a professional of betta fish, but I found these information on the internet. I have two betta fish myself, and one lost its color.I wanted to look more info on betta fish, and learn how to take care of them better. Eventually, I learned many new things about them. Maybe you can learn more about betta fish since you are taking care of one. It's just a suggestion, but I tried looking them up on the comp and it helped me a lot. I just wanted to let you know what i have experienced. ^^ I can give you a site that tells you a lot of info about betta fish. I got most of my info about them in this site: http://www.bettatalk.com/basic_care.htm If you want to learn more about betta fish, then just go on google, and search about them. I hope this helped and hope that your betta fish is alright.^^~!

If it is a male betta, then he'll begin making a bubble nest at the top of his tank. It looks like someone poured soap inside it, but it's not soap, it's just your betta letting you know that he's happy and ready to mate.
