Have you ever went into a pet store and wondered how it would be to own a siamese fighting fish
? They are the fish that have exotic colors on their side and they are individually housed in a cup so they do not fight and kill each other. These fish can be a great treat to own and they are a very nice conversation piece when you invite company over.
I am a huge fan of the siamese fighting fish. I think they are the most beautiful and their tail fins are very unique. I went to visit a few pet stores and looked at all the fish that they had. I wanted to get a custom fish tank built that can house a few siamese fighting fish but also keep them from actually coming in contact with each other.
With planning on this kind of investment I wanted to get the most unique fish that I can find with different colors and mix of colors. It took me almost a week to visit all the stores in my area and after I had an idea of the color of fish I wanted. I wanted to also look into siamese fighting fish care since I will be looking after four of them.
I really had no idea what the best food was or how much food they should be given to ensure they remain healthy. I knew that they have regular fish food but the person helping me at the pet store told me it is not healthy at all for the fish I wanted.
They also told me that the siamese fighting fish needs to have a certain size fish tank and it needs to be cleaned frequently. Since I was having a custom tank built I really needed to think all this through before I made the final plunge.
After reading more about siamese fighting fish care I learned that there is alot involved with caring for them. I decided to take my time and read about everything involved with care and health. Getting this type of fish is really wonderful and I am glad I finally decided to get it done. But just buying the fish and tossing it in a tank is a really bad idea as there is much more involved.
