    Default Trying to breed my betta fish?

    OK, so the female is full of eggs and the male built a bubble nest but they aren't breeding at all. They are just swimming around ignoring each other. Why? They should be killing each other or breeding they are bettas and I've never had these results when I tried to breed them before?

    Try getting another male with the female and see what happens. Is the male even flaring at her with his gill covers. If not then yeah you should get a different male. Most times its the males fault if nothing is happening after a couple days. Before switching wait 2 or 3 days.
