Dee mach kop!,...Kop chi mach, NetMax.
[Much or very good, Sir/ Mam!,... Thank you very much
NetMax.] Back in 1970, while doing some work for 'my uncle', one of the
places that I spent some time at, was up in northeastern Thailand, in
Nakhon Phanom. But most of the Bettas that I saw there were the wild
Bettas, which were/are beautiful in their own way. Pax Vobiscum,..~Dean.

bottles going off into the distance. Thanks for show us this.

Thanks,

I wonder how many of those Betta Bottles I could get in my backyard? Hmmm,
if I moved a few trees... LOL.

Yes, I'd be restricted to about three months a year. Smile

Although there's
always the Betta greenhouse! The neighbours would love it.

Fascinating! I like the trick of cutting a slit in the side of the
bottles and hosing them down to change water. I might be able to stand
breeding bettas with a water change routine that simple.

That is crazy. I've tried hundreds of times to imagine how a place
like that could operate...totally surprised by the scale - 100,000
bettas a week. Amazing. Thanks for posting this.
