The Adventures of a Fish Breeder | Apollo & Ceres | Update 10-23

[Whimsy]

Ive decided to track and write about my hobbiest fish breeding adventures. I currently only own two males, and two females. I do plan to expand my options eventually, but for now I can only handle two batches of babies at a time.

Apollo

Teal, Blue & Red Wild marked Veil Tail (verging delta)


Apollo is my very first betta boy, hes a very vibrant large male whom is quite most of the time but easily flares for the girlies.

Breeding apollo is a love hate thing, hes a major fin nipper and can be quite agressive. For this reason apollo does not get pretty girlfriends. His current mate is a Selene, shes a larger girl, possibly a dalmation red? I havnt quite figured out her genes for sure.

Ah ceres, such a wonderful boy. I spotted him and had to have him, he is the first veil dalmation i have ever seen and hes stunning. Hes going to be a great breeder, he dosnt nip just does his best to show off all perdy like. Ceres is currently paired with a little female named medusa, she was orginal for apollo but he was to big and agressive for her so shes went to ceres for the time being.

Apollo Currently

Apollo is in a breeding tank with selene. Hes being his normal grouchy self and I have yet to see his famous bubble nest (He always has one in his home tank.).

Ceres Currently

CERES BLEW HIS NEST. I checked on my pair this morning and in the corner is a very nice huge bubblenest. Poor ceres lost alot of his tail fin and medusa looks horrible, but everyones going good healthwise! I cannot see any eggus, but that dosnt mean they arnt there. Medusa looks a lot thinner so either 1. they are there and i cant spot them or 2. somebody ate my eggus :[ we'll have to see what goes on for in the passing 48 hrs

^^ To anyone that follows if you would like a baby with any breeding I have I will be giving them away for the price of shipping. I can ship 4 fish w/2 heater packs for $20 less fish = less shipping cost. I also have baby guppies that you may reserve, I do not allow my fish to leave until they are 7-10 weeks old depending on size and how they are eating.

You may have up to four babies free.

Buying a baby?
If youd be interested in actually buying one of my babies, they are $5 USD each and come with a live garuntee. You may have choice of which baby(s) you want of course and it'll all go towards more fish stuffs.
