Interesting betta facts
* Bettas prefer slightly acidic water (pH 6.5 to 7) and warm water. Cold water can suppress the immune system and cause illness.
* Bettas have several different tail shapes - the most common being the "veil tail." Other tail shapes include the "half-moon," "double tail," "short-finned fighting-style tail" and "crown tail."
* Bettas normally live 2 - 3 years, but there have been a few cases of bettas living well into their teens.
* The betta is known as "plakad" in its native Thailand and has often been referred to as "The Jewel of the Orient."
