Breeding Betta Fish Types Of Betta

People tend to think of all Betta fish as the same but there are over 10 groups of Betta species and more than 42 individual kinds of Bettas. The importance of the little differences between these different Bettas are much more apparent when you try to breed your Betta fish. For example male "Bubblenesters" (which include Splendens, Bellica and Coccina) create a nest of bubbles to support the eggs and the males are more aggressive. Male "Mouthbrooders" get their name because they carry the eggs in their throat and are not as aggressive. More Betta Fish Breeding and Care Tips
