Bette lives striped in rich vegetation, small streams, ditches and swampy waters of Southeast Asia: Thailand, Malay Peninsula, islands of Sumatra and Kalimatan.
Betty striped slender, elongated, almost circular in cross-section of the body. Dorsal fin short, anal - long, with an elongated tip. The first rays of the ventral fins are extended. Body color varies from Betty yellow-brown to reddish-brown, with indistinct longitudinal stripes and dark spots on head and fins. The male is larger and brighter colored than the female, with a more powerful and rounded snout. During spawning, the body darkens, the longitudinal stripes are sharp and they appear bright green specks (if male incubates the eggs, then his body is brown). Female during the spawning season is colored a light brown color. In the long beta striped grows to 8 cm
Bette striped passive, a little shy and peaceful fish that expresses aggression only during the spawning season, when males demarcate their territory and defend it. Often hiding in shelters near the bottom.
Bette striped breathe atmospheric air through the branchial labyrinth. Because of this tank should be closed at the top to the surface of the water was warm air, or fish, capturing the cold air can catch a cold. Betty striped can contain a group in general (or species) from 100 liters tank with thickets of plants (preferably broadleaf reaching the water surface), snags and caves of the rocks. For optimal content of this fish needs water following parameters: hardness 4-15 °, pH 6.0-7.5, temperature 24 - 26 ° C. Required filtration, aeration and weekly replacement of 30% of the volume of water.
Bette uses striped like a live feed, and substitutes.
Betta breeding process can take place as striped, in general, and in a separate tank. Spawning take a length of 80 cm for a couple of fish without a primer with a few large-and floating plants. Water conditions for breeding Betta striped: hardness 4-15 °, °, pH 6.0-7.5, temperature 26 - 29 ° C, the level of 20 cm-vody15 Producers in the week kept separately and abundantly fed live food. In the first spawning put a male and a female after a while (with a fat belly). The male builds a nest of foam under the leaves of floating plants (sometimes fish spawn under large leaves, which are attached to it at all or may leave it to float on the surface). The female lays up to 50 eggs, after which it otsazhivayut. The male incubates the eggs in the mouth for 1-2 days. Fry begin to swim and eat in 3-5 days. In this time of spawning male otsazhivayut. The water level is reduced to 5 cm if spawning took place in the general aquarium fry then transferred to Pond Aquarium with the same level of water, which increases as they grow. Starter feed for fry Betta striped: live dust, ciliates, mikrocherv.
Sexual maturity is reached striped betta at the age of 1 year.
