New to this... sharing my Betta spawn and fry experience

[johannapearl]

Hi there,
This is my first post on the site. Just wanted to share my experience so far with my betta spawn. I'm at day 7 with the fry ( hatched out last monday)
They have been fed egg mix and infusia until today, I introduced baby brine shimp this am and they LOVED it!

Awesome colour on the male! I think I'm colour blind but are those colours red/yellow/blue or orange/yellow/blue?

[johannapearl]

Hi,
his colors are orange and violet/blue. I think hes very pretty thanks.
3 of my fry died today dont know why, I will do a really good water change and hope that helps.

Wow hes stunning!!Sorry to hear about your fry.. but i might be intrested in one or 2 once they grow up a bit =P

[johannapearl]

Sure!
Anyone have any idea what my male ( rocky) color/pattern ( or lack of) would be called?

thats interesting that the dad sucks them up...im guessing he spits them out at some point? very cool to see the video - thx for posting!

He keeps them off the bottom of the tank... so for the first 2 days hes a worried mess searching the bottom for the fry, sucking them up and spitting them back out into the bubble nest
