Betta fish are 'mean' because in their wild native habitat they have to stake a claim on a territory in order to feed and reproduce successfully. They must defend this territory against other fish, and so they have become territorial in order to survive. They are not 'mean', becaues meaness involves malicious intent, but this is simply a natural behaviour that is nessesary for the fish to survive in the wild.
