well, i waited till my blue female was big enough, and then i got ahold of my friends male red/blue crowntail well, has soon as she saw him, "zipp!" there are her stripes well, i waited till the next day, then i wanted to see how aggressive he was, well, i put her in with him, and emmediatly started to chase her, and try to nip, so a bit annoyed, i took him out and put in my red and black male viel, hopeing for him to start a nest, for king to understand, well, he wasnt remotly interested in the female, not a flair or nothin so i switched him out and put in teardrop, the male i had already bred, and as soon as they saw eachother, the BOTH started showing off she would flair the stick out her fins is was so cute, and it looked like he was already starting a nest, but i left for school, so i dont know as of yet, but i am going to get some picks of them, she looks so good with her stress stripes off, and her breeding colors on, u guys will love her, oo i hope its not too late to enter her in the betta contest

Good luck with the breeding and it would be great if you could get some photos and post at various stages/:'

sure, i guess i can take some pics later today i put the other male back in his home, he had built a nest, but not where i wanted it, so i am just going to give these 2 a week to see if they can cut it, otherwise i may 1) wait or 2) find another pair, but boy, she is lookin good

well, seeing how its been like 5 days sence i put them together, and still no nest i am floating king, and i put in red, he is a good nester, and i think he could do the job good i may end up raising the fry myself, and putting the nest and eggs in a cover, i dont think king will be a very good daddy but he has large fins, and i want that passed on, so wish me luck again im gunna need it and if u have any advise, feel free to chuck it my way
