Do Siamese fighting fish have poison?
No, they are not venomous.
What kind of food do you feed a Siamese fighting fish without having fish food?
Small insects like pinhead crickets may suffice, but fish food is recommended.
What kind of water should you put in a bowl for a Siamese fighting fish?
Ordinary tap water with the chlorine removed is OK for most fish. I think you have the name wrong. There is no such thing as a fighting fish from China. The only fighting fish I know of is the "Betta splendens" which is commonly called a "Siamese fighting fish" or a "Betta" for short. I am aware that some of the less responsible pet shops sell tiny bowls to keep these poor fish in. They are setting people up for failure. Bettas really need a properly set up aquarium. The minimum sized tank for a Betta is a nominal 5 gallons. The basic rule for keeping any kind of fish successfully is "1 inch of fish needs a minimum of 1 gallon of water". A Betta grows to around 2.5 inches body length. A 5 gallon tank will be filled to within 1 inch of the top usually and should also have an inch or two of gravel on the bottom. So the tank will actually only contain about 3 gallons of water.
Which petshops sell the female fighting fishes?
Most pet shops that stock tropical fish will be able to get you a female 'Betta splendens'. (that's its' correct name). I would advise you not to use the name 'Chinese fighting fish' 'Cos they may not know what kind of fish you mean since they do not come from China. If you really want to call it a 'Fighting Fish' then use the name 'Siamese Fighting Fish'. Most folks will understand that.

Will an albino tiger barb fish attack a fighting fish?
Original answer - "i don't know but try this. put a dead fighting fish in a tank that has albino tiger barbs OR tiger barbs and see if the fish attack or eat the dead fish."I have an albino tiger barb, and through my research and experience I can almost guarantee that a fighting fish and an albino tiger barb will absolutely not do. Scientists don't know why tiger barbs have an unusual fin nipping behavior. I emphasize this especially if the fighting fish is the Siamese kind. Long fins+tiger barbs=bad choice. My albino even nipped the other albinos' fins, which proved fatal. Don't take your chances.Sources - "Aquarium and Pondfish", personal experience.

What kind of food do you feed betta fish?
Siamese fighting fish are carnivores. And like most pets, they should have a varied diet. So try a good pallet or flake made specifically for them, along with blood worms, red worms, brine shrimp and the like. X-treme Betta Pellets and Fluval Bug Bites are my Go-To personally!😁
