Default Re: Bubble nesting??

Bettas build bubble nests with the help of their labrinth organ as all anabantids have these organs ie: gouramis. They will build nests at will with no other reason than simply being bored. The labrinth organ allows them to breath atmospheric air and to make bubbles for the nests.Only the male of these species build bubble nests and will become aggressive towards the female and tank mates.
