You are buying the fish in the photograph.

Siamese Fighting Fish are scientifically known as Betta splendens and they certainly are splendid fish. They are attractive, hardy fish available in many different varieties that have a wide range of jewel-like colours. 

Fighters or Bettas are one of the most popular ornamental fish that people keep in aquariums world-wide. Their popularity can be attributed both to their beauty and their minimal care requirements. 

Bettas have a specialised organ called the Labyrinth Organ which allows them to breathe air from the surface of an aquarium, this allows them to be kept in a tank without a filter system. Regular water changes and live aquarium plants are recommended to maintain water quality and enrich the bettas environment. 

Sometimes Male Bettas will make a bubble-nest on the surface of their aquarium - don't be alarmed it is a natural, happy behaviour. 

Betta Starter Packs contain food and water treatments to get you started.

Some people like to keep a sorority of Female Bettas together as they are stunningly coloured fish and attractive in a group.
