Fighting Fish

Written at Wednesday, May 12, 2010 | back to top

Do you know this fish? It is very pretty actually. It is called as "fighting fish"

why? all that i know it is called as fighting fish is that they will certainly fight if you put them together into the same aquarium! sometimes they might even kill each other! Especially if both are males!

i remember the first time i bought 2 fighting fishes and i put them together and went mad. sometimes i might thought: do they need a larger space than the aquarium i provide or because they love to fight?

i did learn my lesson from that incident. if i want to put two fighting fishes in one aquarium, one must be male and the other must be female or female and female because they don't fight with each other. i still don't know what might happened, so, I'm going to give it a try. after my mid-year exam ends. :)

these fighting fish is actually Siamese. most of them are. they come in different colors. you can choose any color you want (the colors range is from red to blue to white) at the shop and it only costs you $1.50. if I'm not mistaken. O:)

It's scientific name is Betta Splendens. I can't imagine if i went to shop and said: 'i want to buy a Betta Splendens' rather than saying fighting fish. :)

It's adult size is only about 7cm and it is actually quite small.

One way to distinguish a male and female fighting fish is that female is not as highly colored as male and they shorter fins.

So if you want to buy a female and a male, compare their colors! Who knows if the seller tricked you.
