I have a few fish tanks in my home. One in particular is the coffee table fish tank which has little tropical fish like Guppies, Mollies, Swordtails and a betta pair. I know Guppies mate no matter what, I control the environment with only males. All my other fish I would like to mate but they never do. Strangely however, in the last few weeks both the swordtails and the mollies are mating. I did nothing different with lighting, heating, or water quality. What would cause this? As well, I have a male and female Betta and they never acknowledge each other or mate with each other, is it because they are different species of betta's? How do I get my betta's to mate?
I live in Pa and its very cold.
