Betta splendens, also known as the Siamese fighting fish, is undoubtedly one of the most fascinating fish in the aquarium hobby. Its vibrant colours and unique behaviour are sure to attract attention. However, due to their aggressive nature, they must be kept alone and cannot be socialised with other fish. Instead, they can be kept with snails and larger shrimp. Originally from South East Asia, the fighting fish lives in stagnant or slow flowing waters with dense vegetation. To optimise keeping conditions for fighting fish, we recommend a well-planted aquarium with low filter flow and fine-grained, dark gravel. In addition, fighting fish need a low water level to breathe atmospheric air. As a carnivorous species, Betta splendens feeds mainly on insects, larvae, worms, plankton and small crustaceans. Dennerle has intensively studied the special needs of fighting fish in order to develop a care range that meets the special requirements of this species.Dennerle Betta Care+ protection anc
