Most, if not all, fish that construct floating bubble nests live in tropical, oxygen-depleted standing waters.

The nests are constructed as a place for fertilized eggs to be ...
The bettas exhibit two kinds of spawning behaviour: some build bubble nests, such as B. splendens, while others are mouthbrooders, such as B. picta. The mouthbrooding species are sometimes called "pseudo bettas", and are sometimes speculated to have evolved from the nest-builders in an adaptation to their fast-moving stream habitats.

As with most bettas, King betta females are smaller and less colorful than the males. The life span of the King betta is short, generally 2–3 years, rarely reaching four.
