I can assure you the Betta does not think of you as a mate. They are not stupid and do know a female of their own species. Your Betta has simply reached sexual maturity and is building his display home in the hope that if a lady Betta comes along he can convince her to make fertile eggs with him under it.
Some may do it only when they see a female. Some may have trouble getting the bubbles to stick together - a defective gland in their mouth. It may not be feeling healthy enough to breed. And some are just clueless.
because hes not ready to have babies because hes not ready to have babies or happy
Answer He doesn't want to mate or he is not happy.
Place a female in close proximity where he can see her.
I would guess that either he is not in breeding condition or aquarium (water parameters) conditions are not up to standard for the fish to be able to commence breeding..
he is happy and mine blows bubbles when he gets air
At the top of the tank is normally where the male beta keeps his bubble nest
it looks like they have a big bubble in their side
It probly is a female
Female Betta fish do not make bubble nests.
he is unaware that you just let a another fish in and wants to attack her for his territory,but if he starts making a bubble nest that means he is ready to spawn(mate) so put her in
check the PH in the water,
Betta fish derive their color from refraction within a layer of translucent guanine crystals.

BETTA Fish i think
The betta fish will see the mirror and then will be curious about it, because the mirror reflects the betta fish and they might think that it is another fish, so the fish will act differently.
they can. but it is VERY rare. usually you would see a bubble nest.
Place a female in close proximity where he can see her.
The male will make a bubble nest when the female is about to lay her eggs.
