Hey I am Ready to Mate
A healthy betta fish when they are started blowing bubbles are also a sign that he are ready to mate. If you look closely when a young male betta starting to blow bubbles the bubbles may not well-organized. And if he keeps a healthy condition for a long time he will always try to blow bubbles and the more mature it is the more organized the bubbles, and when it is well-organized it means that he are ready to mate.
As we may know when mating after a female betta fish lays eggs the male betta fish took it with his mouth and put it on the bubbles. Betta bubbles are the place where eggs located until it hatch.
