HMPK Betta Splendens #T228

Give your freshwater aquarium a graceful focal point with this Betta splendens, whose half-moon tail opens into a distinctive 180-degree spread. Its balanced outline and symmetrical fins create an elegant silhouette as it swims.

In a planted tank, a sheltered corner offers a place to retreat while keeping the open caudal fin in view. Under typical indoor lighting, its pigment remains stable, so the high-contrast outline stays easy to see.

• Aquarium space: Provide at least 5 gallons for room to swim.
• Water conditions: Keep freshwater at 76–82°F (24–28°C) and pH 6.5–7.5; use conditioned water and change 25% weekly.
• Gentle filtration: Use 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.

Settle in beside a well-planted aquarium and enjoy a quiet pause with your betta’s fan-shaped fins on display.
