Here are some general guidelines:
- A healthy female betta can lay up to 500 eggs at a time.
- Not all of the eggs will hatch. The hatch rate is typically around 30-50%.
- Of the fry that do hatch, not all will survive. The survival rate is typically around 10-20%.
So, if a female betta lays 500 eggs, you can expect about 150-250 fry to hatch. Of those, about 15-25 will likely survive.
However, these numbers can vary significantly depending on the individual fish and the conditions in which they are kept.
