I wouldn&#8217;t know in terms of nutrition, but fighting fish absolutely loves live foods such as bloodworms, mosquito wrigglers and full grown brine shrimp. Usually you can get hold of these from your local fish shop, but it&#8217;s also quite easy [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The 4-, 8- and 16-ray description refers to the number of terminal branches of each individual ray. If the caudal (tail) rays divide (split, branch), then divide again, you&#8217;ve got 4-ray splitting (1rayx2&#215;2=4): if they divide 3 times, 8 rays (1&#215;2x2&#215;2): 4 times, 16 rays (1&#215;2x2&#215;2x2) and so on.

		<description><![CDATA[Generally people say two years, but I&#8217;ve also heard of fighting fish living closer to nine years.
The fish you get from your local fish shop might live less than this as they are already at least six months when you get them.
