What color is your Siamese fighting fish??

Welcome to the world of the Siamese Fighting Fish. Free tips about keeping Siamese fighting fish. Lots of Siamese fighting fish news and much much more on Siamese fighting fish, your Home and family pet’s home.



In this series of posts I will tell you more about the different colors that you can find in your Siamese fighting fish.

The most common colors are ‘Red’ where the fins and body are bright red, paling out at the gills and head.

You also get the extended ‘Red’ in which the ‘red’ coloration extends past the gill plates and head.

‘Royal Blue’ is where the body and fins are a dark ‘royal blue’, ending at the gill plates.
The head is usually dark ‘grey-black’. ‘Red’ will be seen on the fins.

‘Turquoise’ colored Siamese fighting fish/ Betta fish have a faded bright ‘green’ throughout the body ending at the gills and the head is that of a ‘blue’ betta (i.e. ‘greyish-black).

The ‘Steel blue’ color is where the body and fins have a light ‘grey-dark gunmetal blue’ color ending at the gills and head, which are the same as the ‘royal blue’.

It is a color which is prone to ‘red’ wash!
