This is a blog dedicated to Betta fish and Aquariums
Betta fish, also called Siamese fighting fish, are small, colorful fish that are native to Southeast Asia.
In Thailand, the locals call these little creatures “pla kat,” which translates to “fighting fish”, and it couldn’t be a more appropriate name.
Male bettas are known as fighters, aggressively flaring their gill covers and nipping at the fins of other males (or even females) who get too close.
Bettas are famous for their dramatic, flowing fins that come in a variety of vibrant colors.
