Guest delerious Posted April 6, 2010 Report Share Posted April 6, 2010 Hello, Im new here. I have been considering breeding betta's for some time. I know a little about them and find them interesting. I have two problems, I don't know if I could stomach culling and I think the lone males in the pet store look depressed Currently I'm still considering and thought reading about and taking part in chatting about others experiences may stimulate some movement on that front. Looking forward to enjoying the forum. Delerious Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuckie Posted April 8, 2010 Report Share Posted April 8, 2010 Hi, welcome to AAQ Maybe you could consider wild bettas? They don't have to be kept alone, and culling for aesthetic reasons isn't an issue :applaud: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest delerious Posted April 8, 2010 Report Share Posted April 8, 2010 Hi, welcome to AAQ Maybe you could consider wild bettas? They don't have to be kept alone, and culling for aesthetic reasons isn't an issue Woah, they don't? Need to be kept alone that is. I wonder why is that? So the males of wild type are not aggressive?? That implies that aggression is a trait that has been selectively bred in... I feel like that sounds really daft... why would you want to breed aggression in... think maybe I've missed something?? Thanks for the welcome :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuckie Posted April 8, 2010 Report Share Posted April 8, 2010 wild betta splendens are still aggressive, but there are other species of bettas you could consider Have at look at the info on the IBC site about wild species :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
