Re: OT. bettas

A lot of special bettas being bred here in the USofA are going for up to
$600.00 ea.  
the problems are finding suitable females -- most breeders seldom part
with females after culling out the good ones for breeding they flush the
remainder. 
It seems that most of the imports are males only.
