I'll definitely keep you guys posted on the breeding progress. Believe me I'm going to need to unload some of them when they spawn :P Thanks for the kind words guys.

Actually... with further research I've found that stress from being moved into new environments sometimes causes Bettas to overproduce the amount of 'slime' on their bodies. It looks more like that than Ick judging from the pictures I've looked at with fish that really have Ick. But I'm still going to be extra careful to make sure I don't infect any of my other fish.
