HMPK Betta Splendens #T198

Bring a striking focal point to your aquarium with this half-moon Betta splendens. Its tail opens in a distinctive 180-degree spread, creating a balanced silhouette with fin symmetry selected over exaggerated body mass.

Place the tank where you can enjoy the fish’s open tail fan against plants and a sheltered retreat. Its pigment remains stable under typical indoor lighting, making the display easy to appreciate in an indoor setting.

• Tank and temperature: Provide at least 5 gallons and keep the water at a stable 76–82°F (24–28°C) to support the open caudal fin.
• Water care: Use conditioned freshwater at pH 6.5–7.5 and change 25% weekly.
• Gentle filtration: Use a sponge or hang-on-back filter on low flow to help prevent fin compression.
• Comfortable layout: Add soft substrate, dense live or artificial plants, and a curved ceramic or PVC retreat in a back corner.
• Daily feeding: 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.

Settle in nearby and watch the fish’s fin symmetry and high-contrast outline against its planted aquarium. A sheltered corner and steady conditions make the display a calm spot for a daily pause.
