Question: can I spawn giant with standard bettas

This depends heavily on their sizes. If the size of the giant male is slightly bigger than the female (e.g. he's still young or he's only half-giant), yes, they will spawn. If your giant male is way too big compared to the standard female betta, then chances he will fail at wrapping her. She'll just pass through the big loop. On the same logic, usually if you try to spawn a giant female against standard betta, you will fail due to her too-big size for the male to wrap. You may be successful if you manage to find a slightly bigger HM male - wrapping in this case would be challenging but you will get a small percentage of hatched eggs.

In the world of bettas, you will only have successful spawning when both male and female are ready and interested. Giant is no difference, but you do need a lot of interest from them above your typical standard bettas :)

Good luck on the spawn.
