Betta fish can naturally change colors, but they can also change to to stress or disease. To prevent stress, feed the right foods and change the tank often. It also helps to have a filter or heater if the water is cold. Make sure not to have bad neighbors for the fish. If you see any ripped fins on the beta, and it has a neighbor, you should take out this neighbor. Also, for the diseases, white spots and red spots are usually diseases. Gold dust could be too.
Most fish get along well. However, do NOT mix betta fish with other fish. Not even another betta. You have to have a permit to have to betta fish in the same tank with eachother. Betta fish are only mixed to mate. Bettas are not born in the egg. They come out as a very small fish. After the betta babies have come out, all of the fish are seperated. Even the parents, if the betta babies are left in the tank with the others the betta parents are very likely to eat the others.
Some of the best betta fish food flakes on the market include Omega One Betta Buffet Flakes, Hikari Betta Bio-Gold Fish Food, and Tetra BettaMin Flakes. These brands offer high-quality nutrition for betta fish and are widely recommended by experienced fish keepers.
it depends some fish can be less aggressive than others i had a male Betta that lived fine for years with gold fish
No fish will really fight a Betta,unless its another Betta(male,not female,males and females get along pretty well),so i would suggest getting a Gold Mystery Snail if you dont want your Betta fighting with your fish.
it is called a black fish with a gold stripe(:
The best family fish is either a blue geromie, a betta, or a guppie, or a gold fish. None of these fish need a filter.
Bettas are originally from Thailand. Although, they don't look as beautiful and colorful as you would see them at your local pet store. In the wild, they are brown or black and have short tails so they look like slugs.

I used to have 4 gold fish but one was a black gold fish
If you have a betta fish food, and have a picture on it, it's probabily male fish. They are prettier and have longer finns. (Kinda like gold fish with long finns exept different color) The female bettas has shorter finns and are uglier, and I don't know why...Well.. male beta fish are more colorful like red and blue.And female beta fish are more whitish pink maybe with a few black spotsall i can say is male betas are colorful and females are more dull
a first fish that would be professional to start out with is a gold fish, specifically a feeder fish Because they don't cost much to.
