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.
Some gastropods, for example the freshwater apple snails (family Ampullariidae) [7] and marine species of genus Strombus [8] can completely regenerate their eyes. The gastropods in both of these families have lens eyes. Morphological sequence of different types of multicellular eyes exemplified by gastropod eyes: [9]
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.
Betta fish can exhibit unusual sleep behaviors, often resulting in new betta owners assuming that their betta fish has died. In an aquarium, betta fish sleep anywhere in the tank they feel comfortable, including at the bottom on the substrate, floating at the mid-level, or at the surface.
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
Bettas are known as anabantids because they have a special lung-like labyrinthine organ in its head which enables them to obtain oxygen direct from the air. For this reason, they can live in water with very little dissolved oxygen, and can survive out of water for a short time as long as they remain damp. They are also efficient jumpers. [4]
Sinum perspectivum, common name the white baby ear, is a species of predatory sea snail, a marine gastropod mollusk in the family Naticidae, the moon snails. [ 1 ] Distribution
