Saturday, I went ahead and put them in the same tank with her in a
livebearer breeding trap. It was standing vertical with the slotted
bottom as a side, so that my female would have air at the top.
Left them together like that overnight. They both seemed pretty calm
the next morning. I let her out around noon. Neither of them realized
it for 5 minutes! After they decided they weren't going to kill each
other, I left them alone and went to the store. When I came back an
hour later, they were spawning!
Now I have little bettas hatching! Poor papa keeps swimming up and
down, bringing the little boogers back up to the nest. Active little
things, aren't they?

Sounds like fun. I've read that removing the female and lowering the
water level is the next thing to do (to make life easier for the male to
do his job).
