Breeding & Raising Betta Fry | Housekeeping

 

Housekeeping

For the first week it's important not to disturb the fry so no cleaning or water changes should be done in that time.

After that they will need water changes every day (approx 50%).  The easiest way is to use a long piece of airline and attach one end to a rigid piece of plastic about the same width as the airline.  This way you have more control as you move it over the bottom of the tank to siphon up the debris.  It's best to siphon into a clear container, that way you can check to see if you have sucked up any fry.  If you do spot any, then just suck them back up into the airline and pop back into the tank.

When replacing the water, don't forget to add your de-chlorinator and make sure that the temperature matches that of the water still in the tank.  Remember to add the water gently or your fry will feel like they're in a washing machine!!!!!!
