Incredible #BettaFish facts!
Although “betta” can refer to 72 other species of the Betta genus, it is used specifically for the species with the scientific name Betta splendens.
“Siamese fighting fish” refers to the Betta splendens species in order to avoid confusion with the other species of the genus.
Both male and female bettas are aggressive, but the females are less intense and territorial.
The betta’s highly aggressive nature is due to artificial selection, although it is aggressive in the wild.
The fish spawn with the males building bubble nests, after which they protect the eggs and raise the young.
