Aquarium main food flakes in size S for fighting fish from 3 - 10 cm
Fighting fish are actually peaceful aquarium inhabitants and get along with all fish that do not fit into their mouths. Only a male of the same species is fought to the death - hence the name!
The beautiful, long-finned fighting fish in our pet stores are descended from the species Betta splendens, which is also popular for fish fights in Asia. Fighting fish and many other labyrinth fish (gouramis, gourami & macropods) live in both standing and flowing water. They are ambush hunters, shooting out quickly with their overhead mouths to eat, for example, an insect that had landed on the surface of the water.
They do not eat any aquarium plants and do not require much space.
If you want to maintain females as well as a male, you should definitely add several females. A single female would be too crowded.
The best known fighting fish species build foam nests at the water surface, which are guarded by the male. Other species of fighting fish are mouth brooders, incubating their eggs in their mouths until the young hatch and are large enough to stand on their own legs or fins.
Water values are not really critical for fighting fish. While they prefer soft water and pH values between 6.5 and 7.5, they can handle other values as well.
When it comes to food, it is important that the composition is adapted to their natural diet. JBL PRONOVO BETTA as flakes or granules forms the basic nutrition.
There are three different types of food to choose from here, the PRONOVO BETTA FLAKES , PRONOVO BETTA GRANO and the PRONOVO BETTA INSECTS.
Astaxanthin is contained in all 3 JBL fighting fish foods, which leads to strong color formation in the fish. With a few floating plants and a "weedy" aquarium setup, they feel comfortable.
