    I didn't know that betta splendens was an amalgamation of species, but it makes sense in hindsight.
    It's so exciting that there's a brand new species of betta tho!

      He doesn’t really clarify but there are actually still some pure blood Wild Splendens, any domestic/fancy type betta is just classed as Splendens but are actually hybrids in most cases.

    Behind on your videos thanks to the interaction between weather and my autoimmune stuff…looking forward to catching up! A new beta is very exciting. I like the wild types…not as exotic looking but I haven’t seen a fish yet I didn’t like, including the so called ugly ones. A new species is very exciting and so much to learn! Makes we wonder what may have lived in and been lost in the European peat bogs. Great video.

    Very interesting and thank you for the most informative fish show on u tube ❤ however I'm from the UK and I'm interested in a bunch of stickle backs I found in a little river pond in the park .. I noticed them a while ago znd every time I visit the park I take a little look over and watch them all dart around for a moment.. but .tonight I noticed that lots of them had huge Wight spots on them and wondered if maybe the have some kind of infection?? It's not like eck we're ther are lots of tiny spots it looks like every other little fish has 3 or 4 big white spots on them ? I reckon because of global worming that ther are definitely invasive fly insects and the native stickle back has been eating ther larvae anthe the stickle backs amune sistoms can't digest it and the larvae is trying to berst out through its skin and causing fungal infection??I could be on to the finding of the beginning of an iviromental disaster ?

      During the last glaciation, all of that area that is currently water was above sea level. It would not surprise me if, at the time, these waterways were all connected by a big river drainage. That could go a long way toward explaining why southeast Asia and all of these islands have similar fish populations which are from the same family but are different species. That area was not particularly cold either

    Betta are not fish, they are air breathers, it makes them a precursor to mammals.

    • @Fishtory
      @Fishtory  9 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      No it makes them Anabantoides and in common terms "Labyrinth Fish" to the precence of their Labyrinth organ, which allows them to use a sinus- like membrain to absorb o2 from the atmosphere... but their gills also still work for extracting O2 from water as well. They likely evolved the ability to breath in salty, silty and or ammonia polluted environments that would otherwise be harmful to their gills.
      Lastly, many fish breath air... most via their intestines and or colon even (corydoras and some loricaridae sucker fish and catfish).
