The highest price ever recorded so far, a fighting fish at RM250 which is the best grade while fighting fish in the middle price is up to RM100 to RM200.

Commercially care rather complicated. 

In fact, fighting fish care is rather complicated and fussy, especially in terms of water treatment and food are two important aspects in ensuring the percent of living children a high game fish. Water, eg need to be replaced every other day, while the food is to be given twice daily.

In addition to ensuring that the water content that is not too much, they also need to chlorine-free either technology or on anti-chlorine filters available in the market. If using regular tap water, it should be left in advance for at least 2 to 3 days before it can be used.

Food was given in the morning and evening either red worms or larvae. Red worms can also be found in any of the ornamental fish shop in tablet form and should be witted before given to fighting fish. However, do not need fighting fish fed pallet as it affects water quality.

Male fighting fish, more beautiful and larger than females and usually occurs after mating game fish reaches the age of about three months. For the purpose of mating, male and female fighting fish will be placed in the same container for about two to three days and mating is assured when a female fighting fish fighting fish away from the male.

Currently, female fighting fish fighting fish will be separated and the male will be allowed to keep fish eggs in the foam until the hatch is about a few days later. Once hatched the fry, which amounted to hundreds of birds will be isolated to prevent the fish meal by adult males and placed in larger containers.

How to care in the breeding process:
These fish grow and how to lay their eggs attached to the substrate such as plant roots, leaves or fibers rapia.

Measures need to know: 

1. Choose a good parent and a beautiful and aggressive male.

If you want to use tap water, to keep down for 2 or 3 days, so that the chlorine is gone. Another way is dependent on rain water shall be well. For me, I did not measure pH with a pH measuring instrument, but adequate follow the syllabus of anti chlorine or use only rain water or filtered water.

Fish in the drains may have been tough and powerful body than fish kept in aquariums.

Helping Fish Get Rid of the "Ich"

ARS researcher David Straus has shown that copper sulfate is an effective and less expensive treatment for fish infected by the fungus Ichthyophthirius multifiliis, also known as "Ich," (shown here as white spots on catfish). Click the image for more information about it.

Copper sulfate has emerged as an effective treatment for Ichthyophthirius multifiliis, also known as "Ich," a protozoan parasite that appears as white spots on infected fish, according to a U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) scientist. 

Aquatic toxicologist David Straus with USDA's Agricultural Research Service (ARS) investigated copper sulfate as a method to control both Ich in catfish and a fungus—Saprolegnia—on catfish eggs. Straus works at the ARS Harry K. Dupree Stuttgart National Aquaculture Research Center in Stuttgart, Ark. ARS is the chief intramural scientific research agency of USDA, and this research supports the USDA priority of promoting international food security. 

Ich is considered the most prevalent parasite worldwide in ornamental fish, baitfish and food fish, according to Straus. Ich is less common in U.S. aquaculture because of management techniques, but when it occurs, it can kill all the fish in a pond or raceway. It is calculated that Ich was directly responsible for $1.2 million in losses to the catfish industry in 2003. 

The freshwater fungus Saprolegnia is another major pathogen in fish culture, killing eggs and invading wounds and lesions on juvenile and adult fish. 

Straus found copper sulfate is an effective treatment for Ich on fish and fungus on eggs. According to Straus, copper sulfate is the only practical treatment to control Ich in catfish ponds that average about 10 acres in area. It is easy to use, effective and inexpensive, and is safe for the user to handle. 

Current approved treatments for fungus on eggs, such as formalin and hydrogen peroxide, are much more expensive. Also, both compounds are hazardous, and there are human safety concerns as well as required storage precautions.

Copper sulfate is not currently approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for therapeutic use in aquaculture, but regulatory action has been deferred pending the outcome of Straus' ongoing research. The chemical is approved by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency as an algicide and molluscicide. Fish farmers use copper sulfate to control cyanobacteria that cause off-flavor in fish, and to control snails that transmit parasitic flatworms to fish.
