Why Bettas?

[FisheyAsh]

what is it about bettas that makes us all fall in love with them???

 

[modaz]

i wouldnt say fall in love but a healthy addiction is more like it
everything about them does it , wide variety of characters, colours and tails types and the mass possibilities of crossing all of these to create something different. you never know exactly what your gunna get and mother nature has a wonderful knack of throwing in something special every time when the fry arrive, but thats to do with breeding. Keeping them is just as exciting and their intelligence level is beyond belief.

My passion is for livebearers personaly, but betta's are the next best thing in my books, I've been breeding them for over 15 years now just with i had the space to keep them again, sadily I'm only in a 1 bed falt
The other half will not allow any more tanks LOL

I think that the fact they each and every one is unique just like people, They have off days like we do. Its also the way we can interact with them on a one to one basis and they respond to the things we do. Its also their independance...i could go on and on and when you bring breeding into the equation you are given even more reasons to love them. I know now that i will have betta until the day i die

Well, when bf started keeping fish, and I decided I wanted one, the first fish that popped into my head was a betta. My mom kept a few growing up, and I've always loved their colors. Now, keeping them as an adult, I still love the variety of colors, but also the finnage and their intelligence. Each one is different in appearence and personality. I can bond with a betta like I can with a cat. I love all my bettas and I wish I could own every betta in the world. LOL I can't get enough of them!
