The Best Life For Your Betta
By Franki Williams
Betta fish are an entirely unique species of fish. They are the sole fish species with an organ called a labyrinth, which allows them to breathe air outside the water. This adaptation permits them to live in low oxygen environments like rice paddies; the environment to which they are native in Thailand and Cambodia. This unusual characteristic is one of the plethora of singular attractions of this creature. The striking beauty of the male species, in particular, characterized by its bright colors and long flowing fins and its propensity to be a loner rather than a member of a school, like other fish, top the list.
