Description
Betta imbellis has a pair of suprabranchial chambers that each house a labyrinth organ, a complex bony structure lined with thin, highly vascularised respiratory epithelium. The labyrinth organ is a morpho‐physiological adaptation that allows the B. imbellis to extract oxygen from air. This adaptation allows the species to persist in extreme conditions
Males of the species may fight each other especially when in breeding condition
These fish were incorrectly labelled with our licorice gourami but as they grew they developed the distinct imbellis pattern.
We have a few males and plenty of females in stock.
If you are looking for a pair just let me know in the comments
