Well the little miss was pretty busy last night, I woke up to find a bubble nest about 1/4 the size of her tank ohmy.gif ! She's my first female betta, is it normal for females to do this?

Thanks,
Autumn

P.S. Have to run to the "W" store today...must not buy betta, hehe.

Wow, that is impressive! I was wondering if females made nests too...

LOL, good luck at the store, close your eyes when you go past the fishies! I'm not allowed in pet stores anymore, hubby goes in and buys what we need, I have to wait in the car.

Yes, some females will make nests, too. I guess without a guy around, they just have to fend for themselves laugh.gif

Wow I didn't know that. Are you sure she's a female and not a plakat betta? Females will have a white bump under their tummies.

Ditto what Kissy said.

If you go to Betty Splendens site she has an article there about how she got one of these bubble blowing girls to tend the nest and the fry instead of a male. v. interesting.
