I don't need to cull fry because my spawn size is so low. I stress the fry early to kill off the weak ones. Resulting in 30-40 nice, non-deformed bettas :)
Yes. I havent been online much, and I'm always in a hurry, so I barely have time to research or read. I was under the impressions that snails cleaned up the junk out of the tank. Add me on Facebook if you can I can keep up on there thru my mobile device (Mikell Wells)
Response to your picture comments,
I totally thought that one was going to be a male, and everyone else did too, it flared and was very aggressive whenever I showed it a sibling or a mirror. I'm a little sad I didn't get a male, I really wanted one :( But I also love my females so much, they are adorable XD that's also the same one you really liked, she had been named Kamina, but I have to change it now.
I have her in my sorority now and she isn't aggressive at all for how she acted before lol and I'm glad you liked that photo.
It's so cute when they gather around my finger, It's kinda funny to see now, a bunch of female bettas and a african butterfly fish around my finger waiting for food lol
Also my marble has a little bit of copper on her fins now, it's pretty, I'll post a pic in the nibs thread.
