Betta brownorum "Brown's dwarf fighter"

I kept them in groups. They don't fight to death. They are much more like Betta imbellis. They need small caves to hide in. Use small 1/2 diameter pipes cut to 1- 1 1/2 iches in length for hiding, and 1 inch diameter pipes or seedling clay pots for breeding. Now I'm not an expert, this is just what worked for me. I've not raised fry to adulthood yet, but I can't imagine it being any diffrent from Betta splendens, which I have raised to adulthood.

I'd say that these dwarf bettas are hardier than your average betta. They just tend to jump out of even the smallest hole, or if you forget to cover the tank. Since my original post, I can tell you they will do well on most high protien dry foods. They will eat tetra color bits, freeze dried brine shrimp, and freeze dried blood worms.
They are quite rewarding as long as people understand they are secretive fish. They don't swim about much. The colors are an off and on thing, depending on their mood (which varies minute to minute ).
If your into more out going bettas: Betta albimarginata, Betta falx, and Betta channoides are mouthbrooders that are more tame and very active and slightly larger than the dwarfs. See my other post
