i started breeding becuase i wanted to experiment with the colors, thats about it, i never sold to a lfs because (1) they offer cheap prices (2) they will only buy occasionally like when the are low on supply, i have had my best luck selling my spawns through craigslist.org
RC i have a couple questions for you, i want to attempt to spawn purple bettas as difficult as it may be ****
****ive heard the best way to go about this is to breed a dark blue/violet with a blue mustard gas with high iridescence, i have a perfect dark blue/violet but im having trouble getting a mustard gas spawn (id rather get my own strain then buy from a breeder just so i know how to do it) do you know what to mix to get a good mustard gas strain?
also i read in one of these posts that your working on black bettas, ive been trying to get a strain of blacks by breeding two multicolors with black genotype but i havnt had much luck, they come out more brown then black any suggestions?
