Betta Fish, also known as Siamese fighting fish, are popular freshwater fish known for their vibrant colors and flowing fins. They are native to the shallow waters of Southeast Asia, particularly in countries like Thailand and Cambodia. Betta fish are often kept in aquariums due to their striking appearance and relatively easy care requirements.
These fish are territorial and can be aggressive, especially males, which is why they are often kept alone or with compatible species. Betta fish breathe air through a specialized organ called a labyrinth organ, allowing them to thrive in low-oxygen environments. Proper care includes maintaining clean water and providing a balanced diet.
