  • WTB-Live foods

    Hi, I am jaring my bettas and am looking for some live foods. Mealworms, waxworms, etc. If you have anything like this and are wanting to sell them, please PM me with your asking price.

    Thanks!  :)
    Fish are people too, they just have gills.

    fishboyt, what does it mean to "jar" your betta's? Are you literally placing them into jars to transport or something?

    Truth is the cement that holds the bricks and stones of a sane and civilized society together. Remove the former and the latter will crumble.

      Yes, I'm putting them into jars for "Conditionig". Here is a link on what I'm doing: http://www.ibcbettas.org/smp/species/imbellis.html Scroll down to the second Reproduction at the bottom of the page and it will tell you all about it.

        Betta fry are normally raised in a tank.
        At about 14 weeks +/-, the young males go through puberty and start mock fights / nipping fins.
        So if you want pretty fins you have to seperate all the aggressive young males by placing them in their own individual "Jar"
        In my case I use 1/3 galon beanny baby boxes.  4" x 4" x 8"tall
        The females can generally be left in the tank unless you have a nasty one.  
        'Dear Lord,' the minister began, with arms extended toward heaven and a rapturous look on his upturned face. 'Without you, we are but dust ...'
        He would have continued but at that moment my very obedient daughter who was listening leaned over to me and asked quite audibly in her shrill little four-year old girl voice, 'Mom, what is butt dust?'

              I just ordered a pound of blackworms contact me if you would like to try them.  I have used them before and I have plenty of worm keepers.   :emtthumbs:

                  I thought the lettering above your avatar used to say "I am as close to a DRAGON as you can get" and "DRAGON". Am I wrong?  :?

                      The amount of posts, that one has, here on the box, determines what kind of user/member you are, according to the administration of the box. If you go to the link above, called RANKS, you can see the break down of how many post's one makes determines their current "rank" on this website. It's kind of silly to me, but harmless fun I suppose.
