alanmin4304 Posted August 31, 2008 Report Share Posted August 31, 2008 Fish are like humans---If they don't want to breed they don't. Give them a rest, feed them well, bring home flowers and play cool music. You never know your luck in the big city. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron-Betta Posted September 1, 2008 Report Share Posted September 1, 2008 take the female out and leave the male in there for 1 day, then put the female back in on day 2, but only in a clear container. Let her out just before lights out on day 2, they should spawn in the morning of day 3 or that afternoon. Feed the female more than you would normally during the three days, maybe 2 - 3 feeds of bloodworms per day. Also you are looking for dark vertical stripes, not the 2 horizontal stripes that scared females get. Hope that helps a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
