It should go to a corner of a tank or in some plants and wont ussaly move till it has the eggs and also it may come up for air alot more.
Males build a nest of bubbles at the surface of the water and females display horizontal lines the length of their bodies.
they can. but it is VERY rare. usually you would see a bubble nest.
A fish with a bubble on its head, known as a bubble nest builder, plays a significant role in underwater ecosystems by creating a safe space for its eggs to develop. The bubble nest helps protect the eggs from predators and provides a stable environment for the young fish to grow and develop. This behavior is important for the survival and reproduction of certain fish species in their natural habitat.
You don't. Your fish should naturally make it when it feels it is ready to breed.

No. The male betta makes the bubble nest, the female lays the eggs, the male fertilizes the eggs and then takes the eggs and places them into the bubbles of the nest. Most often he will then turn and attack the female i still present. The male will then tend to the eggs until hatched making sure to replace any eggs that fall out of their bubbles.
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.
I have two beta fish also and i noticed one day there was a bubble nest in the tank. So I went on-line and did research on-line and found out that they do this because they are happy, healthy, and getting ready to mate. They use this nest for their eggs and it is usually under a decoration or near a plant for protection. Try not to move or destroy the nest for they take a long time to make and the fish apparently like it there. They wont keep making the nest if it is removed for my fish went only about a month and stopped making it, so if they stop don't find it a bad thing, for I'm sure the fish is still happy and healthy as ever. But do not mate the beta fish if you are not experienced with it, for beta fish HATE being in the same tank as another for they will try to kill each other. How do I know this? I did research and I sadly have tried it myself.
The male will make a bubble nest when the female is about to lay her eggs.
Place a female in close proximity where he can see her.
It's not something on the fish. He will blow a nest of bubbles on the surface of the water that hold up the eggs.
Betta fish reproduce through a process called spawning. The male builds a bubble nest at the water's surface, then courtship and mating take place. The female releases eggs, which the male fertilizes, and he collects them in the bubble nest to protect them until they hatch.
