The Fighting Fish



Halluu . Today , i want to story about the fighting fish . The fighting fish , also sometimes known as the Betta , which is popular as an aquarium fish . They are a very territorial fish and it is unwise to house two males together. Even the females may become territorial towards each other if not housed in a large enough tank . The fish can be found in vast standing waters of canals, rice paddies and floodplains .


If their want breeding , Male Betta will flare their gills , spread their fins and twist their bodies in a dance if interested in a female . If the female is also interested she will darken in colour . Once the female has released all of her eggs, she is chased away from the male's territory , as she will likely eat the eggs . If she is not removed from the tank then she will most likely be killed by the male .

The eggs will remain in the male's care. He carefully keeps them in his bubble nest, making sure none fall to the bottom, repairing the bubble nest as needed.


The Betta was caring about their eggs

Betta are found in many different colours due to different layers of pigmentation in their skin. The layers consists of red , yellow , blue , black and metallic . Any combination of these layers can be present, leading to a wide variety of colours and can appear to change colour with different lighting conditions or viewing angles . That all .
