How to tell if you got a fighting fish?

If your fish is a fighting fish it will be still for most of the day and probably attack another fish who wanders into his "territory". Fighting fish often come in bright colours like red or blue. But some fish are just naturally aggressive and hurt or kill your other fish! {trust me I've experienced this } It's very important to know the difference between a aggressive fish and a fighting fish. If you still can't tell talk to your local pet store or talk to an expert.
