You have to treat it with special care and don't let it lose color or else it will die.
Betta fish change color by there environment and the types of food that you feed it. If your Betta fish is loosing color that means that your Betta is sick.

Betta fish derive their color from refraction within a layer of translucent guanine crystals.
The signs of a healthy Betta fish are bright colors, no torn fins, good appetite, very active and it occasionally sleeping. Signs of a un-healthy Betta are torn fins, loss of appetite, losing color,less active very sleepy, and sometimes white eyes. Things that cause this are disease from new fish or dirty tanks, crowded tanks, or other fish.
Yes. Betta Fish do change their coloer every now and then. Or if you have a male, he will change his coloer if hes chaseing a female Betta Fish. Or if he sees another male Betta Fish.
Yes a light is healthy for a Betta, they need lights for warmth (the light will heat up the water) And Bettas get sick easily so without warm water they will get ill and lose there color and become a gray color.. Which is not pretty.
Male betas are colorful and have large fins. Females have virtually no fins and have no color
Typically a betta will increase in colour, and in some cases change colours somewhat as they age. If your betta begins to lose it's colour, check for water quality problems or an illness.
I would probs say a Betta fish because of their color
The are a type of betta called Cambodians that feature sections without color...unless it's a recent change, don't worry about it.
Simple. Betta fish are territorial. They see movement, and color as a threat. They will do this even to the females until maybe mating season.
Both "Albino" and "Pied" are simply variants in color of a species. As long as the Betta fish you want to breed share the same genus, they can breed.... if i need to make that clearer, YES they can breed. :)
