There is evidence that the genetic basis for aggression in betta fish is not exclusively sex-linked – a 2019 study found that female bettas of the fighting strain show significantly higher levels of aggression than their female wild-type counterparts, despite the fact that historically only male bettas have been used in fights and thus ...
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. [ 3 ] A phylogenetic study published in 2004 concluded tentatively that bubble-nesting was the ancestral condition in Betta , and that mouthbrooding has ...
A betta fish's lifespan can be impacted by the care it receives, WebMD reports. Bettas may live longer if their tank is clean, the environment is calm and their diet is healthy.
Male and female individuals of Betta imbellis can live together outside of breeding season, as well as getting together for breeding. Males will build a bubble nest before breeding. After mating, the male catches the falling eggs and places them in his bubble nest. In 1–2 days, the eggs hatch and continue to absorb their yolk sack for 2 days.
Fish can sense sound through their lateral lines and their otoliths (ears). Some fishes, such as some species of carp and herring, hear through their swim bladders. [9] Hearing is well-developed in carp, which have the Weberian organ, three specialized vertebral processes that transfer vibrations in the swim bladder to the inner ear.
Coffee beans are hitting record high prices not seen in nearly 50 years after difficult growing seasons among some of the world's top producing regions. Earlier this week, the Wall Street Journal ...

Male individuals of Betta smaragdina will build a bubble nest before breeding. The temperature at which breeding typically occurs is 25.6 to 26.7 °C (78.1 to 80.1 °F). Males and females can live together and the male and female should already live together for breedi
