hmm u can try to turn off the pump.. and let it be.. betta is livebearer, no need pump to giv oxygen heh.. ur setup is same as mine.. there is no problem..

i think there is a period for them to breed, cos b4 that even i din put the female inside the tank.. jus fighting by looking at the mirror, the fish start buidling nest(bubble).. but somehow i din c them doin so, i mean for now..

hmm.. i been breeding em twice.. i got few hundred of baby.. but it die after aweek.. i wonder y? wat should i do after the baby start swimming? i have been feeding em egg york and sera baby food.. but i think it pollute the water.. hmm can anyone giv some advice on how to keep emm after they start swimming.. do i need to take the male out? and wat should i do if the water is pollute?
