July 2010 - Wasanbetta Platinum Red DTCT Plakat By: BettySplendens Submitted: 7/10/2010 Wasanbetta DTCT plakat This month we're pleased to feature this amazingly unique platinum red doubletail crowntail by top Thai breeder Wasan Sattayapun. This betta deserves recognition for his captivating color and unique look -- a combination of so many traits in one! This one looks to be a plakat, but could very well be a young longfin who hasn't finished finning out yet. Source: Wasanbetta

Stock shop update COMPLETE.. Sorry for the delay everyone. We've recently found out that the old man and I are expecting a baby, and while that is very exciting, it is also very tiring nauseating terrifying unexpected, considering my medical history. Doc has instructed me to rest up and try not to get stressed, so I'll be taking some time away from work and probably reducing the betta operation a bit.

Most available stock is now posted, although I may have one or two stragglers over the coming week. Next stock shop update probably won't be for a couple of weeks at least. Thanks so much for the outpouring of love, support, and good wishes. I feel so lucky to count so many friends within this hobby :).

Sex Ratio Distortion
Anyone who routinely breeds Betta will eventually encounter a spawn with vastly more males than females or the converse.

Breeding Bettas - For Fun and Profit?
Several times a week I get emails from people wanting advice on how to make a profit selling bettas online. I can only assume this is because I run a rather high-profile website which seems to sell a lot of bettas. When you look at the price tag on some of these fish, Wow!, it looks like I'm making a killing! So I'm going to address the money-making potential in bettas, and what that requires of you.

The Different Types of Black
