What else do you breed?
Me after years being out of fish I decided to breed betta again (Show Betta), how about you what do you breed aside from snakes.

Rabbits and goats.
If my goldfish would spawn, I'd keep a few.

Deb, those are gorgeous! Are you going to enter them in any shows?
I don't keep anything else but my roommate has a thriving ant colony.

Thanks, no I don't plan on entering shows with those, just a side breeding project, and like everything else I breed I try to breed quality....definitely not your average Walmart or Petco Betta.

Woah, those are awesome bettas!
I bred guppies a few years ago, but it only lasted a couple years. Apparently I got breeding stock that has already been in-bred for a few generations, and they produced small and unhealthy guppies.
I kept a 50gal display tank, a 10gal breeder tank, and a 5gal fry grow-up tank. This is my display tank, but it's gone through a lot of tear downs and re-scaping... Here are the best couple setups.
And a bad photo of the kind of guppies I was breeding.
I used DIY co2 for this whole 50gal, and it did have a visible effect on the plants, though not as huge as pressurized co2. I only just tore down my 50gal for good one week ago, after running it for 6+ years, and moved my group of harlequin rasboras and zebra danios into a new 25gal setup similar to this one.

I used to breed South American Cichlids (Red Devil, Jack Dempsey, Dovii) but gave up those to focus on the snakes a while back.
some old photos!
that male was so gorgeous and impressively huge (aggressive too). Here's a shot of him in the 240 gallon with the female.
miss the fish but glad I don't have to do the aquarium maintenance any longer
Love the Red Devil
Funny thing fish were the first thing I ever bred as a kid some many many moons ago (my parents were avid fish keepers), and if it was not those first breeding experiences of fish I am not sure I would have transitioned and bred other animals.

Nice tanks, guppies have a special place, first thing I ever bred in my life.

Re: What else do you breed?
Those bettas are super gorgeous.
I don't breed anything at all, I want to get into little seahorses. 😁
