           Siamese Fighting Fish






           The brilliant colours and flowing fins of the Siamese fighting fish make them one

           of the most appealing aquarium species. Just don’t be tempted to put these
           belligerent ‘bettas’ in a tank with anything else.Their reputation as fighting fish is
           well deserved!






























































           Females
           Female fighting fish are much drabber than their male counterparts.
           They also tend to be slightly smaller,with less defined pelvic fins
           (those set forwards on either side of the body).
