bettas eat like pigs(sorry, no offense, but it is true in my point of view), i tend to feed them alot and about 5 times a day before,
but i dont recommend that, it will make ure betta fat, lazy and even can caused swim bladder disorder.
1 or 2 times a day is enough. i think yours is ok i guess. (plz correct me if im wrong here)

The marimo looks very comfy. Can it be kept indoors with minimal lighting? Thinking to get a plant but don't know what to get.

Answer. The expensive bettas are mainly the quality selective bred ones with beautiful finnage, perfect colour rays and tail shapes. Suitable to be show bettas I suppose.

Pity that. No idea why the cross-breed of all these show bettas are being sold at such a heavenly price. Bettas used to be really affordable for everyone. Back then I could get a fine betta at just 50 sen and it was pure breed.

Define those RM7 ones, what are they? I'm quite curious to know the fin type and colour variation of them. It's an odd pricing though. The LFS I've been to mainly sells the bettas at RM2 or RM10. Were you referring to the RM7 ones or the RM40-50-70 ones that you like?

Besides that, if you say shrimp and if I'm not mistaken that these shrimps are those RM1 for a pack to use as bait for fishing, then I wouldn't recommend to keep the bettas with them. I've once tried this in my female bettas tank and they've eaten all of the shrimps by the next day.

Further, if those shrimps are the very pricey pet shrimps, i.e: cherry shrimp, crystal red shrimp; you should better not keep them with the bettas for what it may be almost the most expensive food for them.

my suggestion to future hobbyist who wanted to breed, plz research and read and know wat u shud do b4 u act..

eg: food preparation, tank preparation, etc

nowadays Most of the ppl only wan ppl to spoon feed thats y betta quality drop so much..


Anyway back to ur question, u can remove the father once the fries r free swimming.. what is free swimming? go search it urself..

and for ur information, some breeder keep the father with the fries until adult. every breeder has their own unique way to keep the fries..

LOL at the 'free swimming'. What is free swimming? Layman's term, it means swimming freely without supervision, will float and won't drown. Haha! Easy ain't it?

I do remove the male betta once the fries start to swim freely as a precaution of the fries being eaten up mistakenly as daphnias by their father. Unless I'm mistaken, the male betta could be kept with the fries until the fries become adult which I'm yet to experience.

Indeed you were right on the pleco being attacked by the bettas. I had one pleco, double the size of the normal adult females (I keep some 10 to 15 female bettas in a huge porcelain jar - those known as 'salted eggs jar' which could store some huge amount of water), got pecked badly by the female bettas and suffered massive injuries and ended up as fatality. Poor thing!

i dont think those r veiltail but delta or super delta.. usually this 2 type r sold between rm5-10... sometimes u might get lucky to buy a hm at rm10 also..

general rule ~~~ u pay for wat u get.. cheap no good.. good no cheap.. but expensive doesnt mean good..
if for self pleasure then u like it shud b no problem, however if for competition then choose base on finnage and lineage.. ^^
