Female Siamese Betta Fighting Fish

Assorted Female Siamese Betta Fighting Fish

The female Siamese Fighter or Betta fish as commonly known is a great addition from small to large community aquariums. Female Betta's can be kept in the same tank as each other, best wth no males to keep aggression low. They do also breathe air not only through the water so sometimes will come to the surface and come out if they are able to.
