When they are in heat, the male Thai betta fish will spit out bubbles and build a nest. When both the male and the female are in heat, they will dance together. When they reach the climax, the male will wrap his tail around the female, and the female will begin to spawn. After spawning, the male fish will come forward to fertilize the eggs and put the fertilized eggs into the built nest. Fish eggs can hatch into small fish after 1-2 days in the nest.
How and when does the Thai betta breed?

1. How to breed

Thai bettas before breeding, the breeder of Thai bettas needs to prepare a separate tank for them and separate the male fish from the female fish with a transparent partition. Because of the irascible character of the Thai fighting fish, if the male fish and the female fish are put together directly, they will fight. Secondly, the water temperature in the fish tank should be kept at 26-28 C, and the water quality should be clean and refreshing.

When the male and female fish adapt to each other's existence, the partition can be removed and the two fish can interact. When the male fish is in heat, he will build a nest first. After building the nest, he will keep dancing, during which he will spread his fins to the maximum to attract the female fish. The female fish will also dance with the male fish, during which the male fish will wrap its tail tightly around the female fish, and the female fish will lay eggs under the male fish's wrapping. After the

female fish lays eggs, the male fish will immediately come forward to fertilize and put the fertilized eggs into the built nest. After the mother fish spawns, the breeder needs to fish them out, because the mother fish does not have the habit of protecting the eggs, and may eat the eggs. Fish eggs can hatch into small fish after 1-2 days in the nest.
