HMPK Betta Splendens #T147

Bring graceful movement to your freshwater aquarium with Betta splendens. Its flowing fins and half-moon tail open into a distinctive 180-degree fan, creating a striking focal point in typical indoor lighting.

Place the aquarium along a route you pass often, where you can pause to watch your betta move through the water. A planted layout and a sheltered retreat help create places to swim and rest.

• Swimming space: Use an aquarium of at least 5 gallons to give your betta room to move.
• Water conditions: Keep conditioned freshwater between 76–82°F (24–28°C) and pH 6.5–7.5; change 25% weekly.
• Gentle filtration: Choose a sponge or hang-on-back filter on low flow to help prevent fin compression.
• Sheltered layout: Add soft substrate, dense live or artificial plants, and a curved ceramic or PVC retreat in a back corner.
• Feeding routine: Offer premium pellets or flakes twice daily, with frozen brine shrimp once a week.
• Steady placement: Keep the aquarium away from direct airflow to maintain temperature swings below one degree per hour.

Set the tank somewhere you naturally pause, and enjoy a calm moment with those distinctive fins in view.
