Male betta fish build bubble nests. When it’s time to breed and create lots more adorable, baby betta fishes, the male betta fish will form a small bubble nest on the surface of the water.He'll then watch over the nest, make repairs and retrieve any eggs that float away, protecting them until they hatch. Pretty cute, right? Building a bubble nest is also a sure fire sign you've got a healthy, happy male betta on your hands!

Betta fish can jump. They're not just excellent swimmers - betta fish are mighty jumpers, too! If housed in an uncovered tank, bettas can jump up to 3 inches high on average. What did we tell you? Small, but mighty.

Betta fish can breathe air. No, we’re not pulling your fin - betta fish can breathe air just like you or me, thanks to their labyrinth organ. This special organ works in a very similar way to our lungs, and means they are able to breathe air at the water’s surface, as well as in water. Clever little fishes!

Betta fish come in many beautiful colours - blue, red, yellow, turquoise, and more, and their layers of iridescent skin pigment mean they can have multiple colour combinations. Truly, there are few fish quite as beautiful as the betta!
