A female betta fish can lay up to a 400 eggs at a time - depending on the age and health of the fish- but only a few (5-30) of these are actually fertilized by the male. Once laid, the male pretty much takes over the "spawning" (care) until the baby bettas are born.

Are guppies the only fish that gives birth?

Guppies are not the only fish, that give birth. Almost every kind of fish gives birth. However, guppies are pretty easy to give birth. Other fish, such as betta fish, most tropical fish, and angelfish are rather hard to breed, because they are aggressive and will eat their own young. So, I suggest guppies if you want to breed fish.

How can I effectively get rid of a betta fish?
