Inconsistent - Some bettas that he sells are very good and compatible with the price. Sometimes he sells RM50+ for a betta but I don't see any special feature. May be I am not a good judge. Also, I really don't know how to judge if he is selling red-wash betta or red-pattern bettas. I normally buy the good finnage, regardless the red-wash.

By the way, Evildonkey, what strain of HM are you breeding?

Can I ask one question: I bought one betta with transparent+color fin. The transparent part just getting rot and drop off  cry.gif The color part is intact and colourful. I change 30-40% water every 3 days. He is active and show no sign of sickness. So, what is the possible cause? Transparent part more prone to fin rot? It seems not to grow back  cry.gif

hi, if u r buying the packet size one then it is good to use one packet for one 4' tank, then it wil drop the pH to around 5-5.something, which is best for bettas, but peat definetly will make the water brownish, so if u refer to my pic b4, i put some active carbon in the top filter then the water wil b crystal clear aldi laugh.gif ketapang leaf wil drop the pH to around 6 only. if 2' tank then use half of the peat from the packet. one easy way to save cost is u steal the stocking from ur wife then put the peat inside, after that just sew it, and then hide the pack under the wood or sand....up to u la....hahaha just some idea only, correct me if i am wrong.... notworthy.gif notworthy.gif

yesterday just got a Betta, dunno what's the type looks a bit like Delta tail or HM, i dunno..too bad currently dunhav a camera.

Anyway, i want to ask, is Ketapang leaf easy to find around housing area? Because my place over here didn't sell ketapang leaf, & is there any other kind of leaf can replace the ketapang ?
Currently my betta is in a small tank with Java fern together, & from what i hav observe until now, it frequently will flaring its tail, even when i'm not near it, does this mean anything ? & why does it didn't show its fierce face when facing the mirror?
One last question, do we need to add salt everytime when do water change ?  rclxub.gif  rclxub.gif
Is any of the below is the ketapang leaf ? not really good in differentiate even i watched the previous ketapang picture in this thread.
btw, what do we need to do first b4 putting the leaf into the betta tank?
*
bro, no need to put salt la, only when betta sick then put a "bit" only......tats the ketapang leaf, b4 u put in, make sure u boil it 1st la, like "cooking" it, after tat only put in, it will turn d water bcome brownish after 3-4 days, it can lower the pH to around 5.5-6, depends on how many pieces u put in, but like me, i hv my own ketapang tree, so i didnt boil it, hahaha, if u can, next time u c the ketapang tree, then collect the seed la, its brown in color...then u can plant in ur garden lo, but remember the tree will grow very very big... sweat.gif my dad purposely plant this bcos wan to keep bettas..hahaha notworthy.gif notworthy.gif

Haha, your dad is very geng !
So, all the 3 picture i uploaded is ketapang leaf ?
& i just need to boil them like boiling a driftwood ? usually how long does it need to boil ? I think i just put in 1 piece is enough, since the tank is small.
*
hahaha, my dad is animal freek la, i bcome like this also bcos his fault la..hahaaa ya all the 3 pictures are ketapang....yes u can boil it like driftwood lo....only a few minutes (around 3 in boiling water enug la, just my opinion), one piece in small tank definitely enug one, once the water bcome brownish u can remove it lo, bcos if u dont take out then the water will bcome black water liao, ketapang can make the pH down n if ur betta is sick u just put in ketapang + "bit" salt then it will heal...trust me...i always do this... rclxms.gif

so many siffuuuu finally here.... rclxm9.gif happy cny to all of you guys, ang pao ang pao, gong xi fa chai brows.gif brows.gif
i normally feed my betta fries with artemia, i dont know y they dont like daphnia... hmm.gif hmm.gif and the liquidfry no2 just cant work well...the 1st time i tried out, all the fries dead cry.gif cry.gif i think it was my mistake la,
btw, if u wan to breed them, i suggest u read/google/study/ask/ and do some homework, then will increase the success rate to breed.... biggrin.gif
but diff betta need diff pH to breed,
if u just breed betta splendens, i think pH around 6-6.5 will do the job, and the temperature around 28oC, as long as u can c the brown vertical stripe along the female and the stomach is big, even when u not feeding it, then means it is ready to spawn, b4 tat, just put them in separate jar, let them c each other for around 30 minutes per day, after 2-3 days then u can prepare the breeding tank with a lot of plants inside so tat the famale can hide....the rest just follow sifuuu novo said la.... notworthy.gif notworthy.gif

sayasebuk: so nice the palace drool.gif drool.gif and the red vt, drool.gif drool.gif my favorite color wub.gif betta tends to jump when the pH is changed or when move to new environment or been scared....the best is to put a cover la, or keep the water level low, btw u hv a very nice color HMPK, n they like a bit "blackwater", i think urs just too clean..just my opinion notworthy.gif notworthy.gif

foxngn: ya i forgot to mention u need to get te very old leaf, like another sifu said, "crunhcy leaf", normally i didnt cook it, just wash it with aged water a few times, then str8 away throw in the tank aldi, around 1 or 2 day the water will change brownish aldi.

the_registered: do u put in salt?? i think mostly it is bcos of the water condition...
wat u feed them??? live food??? normally tubifex will carry parasite tat wil harm ur bettas, i learnt this thru a very hard lesson, my channoides dead bcos of parasite, cry.gif cry.gif cry.gif may it RIP....
