Long prized in the Orient for their endless variety and exquisite beauty, the Thai or Siamese Fighting Fish are kept as pets worldwide. Known by the scientific name Betta splendens, these splendid fish are native to the rice paddies of Thailand, where their colors in nature were much more muted. Selective breeding has led to the development of the stunning colors available today. This tattoo design can be colored in many different ways, four samples will come in the PDF download or you can customize it to mimic your favorite fish specimen.
