I keep Bettas myself – awesome fishes. Did you know that these beauties grace the rice paddies in far east Asia? They’re everywhere!

  Cool. Have you got photos of the little guy? We had a one back in the day, a beautiful red ruffian who we called Rufus Adonis.
  
  I also didn’t know that there are over 60 species of Betta.
