1. Body shape difference: Generally speaking, the body shape of a male round tail betta in good growth condition should be more symmetrical, and the belly will not swell significantly. Females in the same state of growth are fatter and have rounder bellies.
2. Differences in mouth shape: Generally speaking, the mouth of male fish is wider, and the lower lip will protrude outward a little. The female's mouth is narrow and pointed, and the lower lip does not protrude outward.
The use of light transmission method can help identify the sex of round tail betta. During the breeding season, prepare a small tank and pour a small amount of water into it. Then the fish that needs to be identified is fished out and put into a small tank, so that it lies horizontally in the tank. After that, put the tank under the light and look at the belly of the fish from the bottom of the tank. If the shadow of the ovary can be seen in the abdomen, it is a female fish. If the abdomen is transparent and there is no shadow, it is a male fish. After identifying the gender, remove the light source in time and put the fish back in the tank.
round tail fighting fish male and female may fight. They may fight if they are raised in a small tank or fed very little food. When they are raised, if they are provided with the right amount of food and enough space, their chances of fighting will decrease a lot.
