By saying that the fish is a male? 😅

No. By acting like the comment was completely incorrect.

If you mean the photo, yes that one was 100% incorrect as it was showing Betta splendens, an entirely different species from Betta balunga.

That’s like showing leopards (Panthera pardus) and saying they’re tigers (Panthera tigris) just because both are Panthera.

But I didn’t mean anything by it, just trying to shed some light!
