Introducing Jazz the Siamese Fighting Fish

As an early Christmas present, my boyfriend bought a new betta for me!

This is Jazz, the newest addition to my fish family.





Jazz is a blue and white marble, long eared, halfmoon plakat siamese fighting fish (betta splenden.)

'Long eared' describes the long flowing pectoral fins which other breeds of betta splenden don't possess. It is not a very common fish, but that could potentially change as it may become the next 'big thing' for breeders to try and breed into their stock.

Plakat describes the shortened tail, dorsal and pelvic fins, and halfmoon describes the shape.

Marble describes how the colouring has been presented in this breed.

Jazz is living in our bedroom in a filtered and heated 4gallon tank.


To quote Mr Potato Head: "Prepare to meet - Mr Angry Eyes!"
