Unlike before where they are purposely bred for fish fighting, the Bettas are becoming more popular as peaceful aquarium residents. Over a period of selective breeding, Bettas nowadays look vastly diverse from their wild ancestors. If you go around aquatic stores, Bettas could be seen in an array of beautiful colors from the ordinary black or white to some shades of brown and more attractive hues of red, turquoise and blue. They also appear to have more elaborated appearances of their finnage.
Known as easy to care for fishes, they are mostly preferred as first time fishes for kids and for those who lack the time for maintaining tanks. Unlike other fishes, Bettas do not require air pumps, filtration and aeration systems. These fishes breathe and survive by going to the surface for air. Such ability makes them do very well in a fish bowl and has no need for larger and expensive aquariums. Keeping two male Bettas in the same bowl should be avoided though as this would cause them to fight and lead to one of them dying.
