Details

There are many names for the particular betta color patterns but most are variations of blue and/or red colors. Fish pictured here are representative only and the actual fish you receive may vary in appearance. If you are looking for a specific coloration, contact a livestock department representative or simply allow us to choose one of our favorites for you!

Koi Bettas have unique color patterns much like their popular pond fish namesakes. While some particularly fancy varieties have multiple colors and very koi-like patterns, others have a more mottled patterns, possibly with some black patches and markings.

Bettas are one of the most beautiful of all the anabantoids (gouramis, or "air-breathers"). Their ability to breathe air directly from the atmosphere enables them to live in the stagnant pools and puddles in which they naturally occur.

Bettas have evolved a very intense territorial aggression to the point where they are best kept by themselves. They do not tolerate other males and females are only tolerated when breeding. This natural behavior and their ability to breathe atmospheric air makes them ideal for keeping in bowls and small aquaria. As long as the water is kept relatively warm and is changed regularly, they do very well.

Bettas are carnivorous fish and must be fed meaty foods. There are many special prepared Betta diets (flake/pellet) that are excellent foods. Blood worms, brine shrimp, and plankton are also excellent as treats. Keep in mind that a betta has a stomach about the size of it's eye. It should be fed an eyeful every day to maintain it's shape and health.
