Chris is breaking down the truth about Betta Fish, also known as Siamese Fighting Fish. Yes, they’ll fight other males, but that doesn’t make them mean! 💪 These vibrant fish are actually great community fish when paired with the right tankmates — they just need their own space from other Bettas.

With their stunning colors and flowing fins, Bettas make the perfect centerpiece for any aquarium setup. 💧✨
