The male Betta splendens always builds a bubble nest and entices the female under it in order to get her to spawn. If the nest is not to her liking she will not spawn with him. So I guess the answer is no. There must be a bubble nest for them to spawn under and for the male to tend the eggs in.
it looks like they have a big bubble in their side
Female Betta fish do not make bubble nests.
It probly is a female
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.
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.
Yes! Betta fish males can make bubble nests whether or not a female betta is present! Male bettas make nests when their home are in proper conditions and they are ready to breed.
Before the mating period, the male betta will create a bubble nest, where the eggs will reside. Once the female is near, they will usually fight each other before finally mating. Once they finish, the male will take the eggs in his mouth and put them in the nest. If these are pet betta fish, then the female should be removed after an hour or two.
You put them together when the female is full of eggs, and when the male builds a bubble nest.
Np, but they will bite. Yes, they will fight to the death.
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.
The betta fish is making a bubble nest because he is happy it doesnt necessarily mean he wants to mate or have a friend. Do NOT mate him with a female if you are un-prepared to father the fry. The male will raise the fry to a point, but after that you're daddy.. You need to be fully prepared with proper food, water conditions, lighting, etc. It's a hard job. He doesnt need another fish in the tank with him, but if you want other fish with him do some hard core research first. Bettas are pron to getting their fins damaged by other fish. == ==
