Breeding bait - getting pairs for free

We've given this some thought and perhaps you'll be interested in it too.

A simple question: what does it take to get you to start breeding - apart from our top 10 reasons?

Well, here's the proposal. You purchase any of our fish (whatever lot available at any time when we have a sale, such as from current sale), and if you manage to spawn them and get some fry, if you would like to cross the fry to one of our currently-for-sale bettas, we'll give our bettas (that you're interested in) for free! Limit 1 pair per customer per line of bettas you've purchased from us (it doesn't mean that 1 customer only can get 1 pair, you can get many pairs so long you've spawned whatever lines you've initially purchased from us).

Basically the steps would be:
  1. you buy any bettas we have for sale (call this F1).
  2. you spawn these bettas (amongst themselves or with your existing bettas)
  3. you record the spawning in a blog, forum, pictures of their progress, whatever way for verification
  4. when F1 fry is big enough, and if we happen to have some bettas for sale that you're interested to cross your F1 fry to, let us know.
  5. we'll give a pair of bettas that you're interested in for free...
  6. you'll spawn F1 fry with the new betta(s), and if successful, you can claim yet another free pair from us when your F2 fry is ready (and we have more stock for sale), loop back to step 3.
No restriction on what you spawn your bettas with, so long at least 1 of the bettas ought to be coming from us - we're interested on how the line continues too, and perhaps wanting to buy from you ;) Also no restriction on which pair that you're interested in to get for free, so long we have them for sale, you can have them.

In order to qualify for the next free pair, you need to spawn F1's fry to one of the bettas that you've got for free (as mentioned on step 6). Same procedure applies. So, practically, you are helping us to keep the line going and we're helping you to supply your stock so long you're interested in breeding them. Win-win, don't you think?

Let us know if you're interested and happy breeding. For those reading this and had purchased from us in the past, yes, you're qualified to get your free bettas if you'd like to cross your spawn to any of ours - provided you've got your spawn log handy.
