Product Details

• Species: Betta splendens
• Common Names: Crowntail Betta
• Origin: Captive-bred (wild relatives from Southeast Asia)
• Diet: Carnivore
• Maximum Size: 6–7 cm (2.5–3 inches)
• Temperament: Semi-aggressive (males); Peaceful (females in community tanks)
• Care Level: Easy

Care Guidelines

Aquarium Setup:
Crowntail Bettas thrive in tanks of at least 10 liters, with warm, still water. Include plants, driftwood, and decorations to provide hiding spots and enrichment. Bettas prefer low to moderate lighting and gentle water flow to mimic their natural habitat. Use a lid or cover to prevent jumping.

Water Parameters:

• Temperature: 24°C – 28°C
• pH Range: 6.5 – 7.5
• Water Hardness: Soft to moderately hard (5 – 15 dGH)

Diet:
Crowntail Bettas are carnivorous and thrive on a protein-rich diet. Feed them high-quality Betta pellets or flakes, supplemented with live or frozen foods such as brine shrimp, bloodworms, and daphnia. Feed 1–2 times daily in small amounts to avoid overfeeding.

Behavior and Compatibility:
Male Crowntail Bettas are territorial and should be housed alone or with carefully chosen tankmates like snails or non-aggressive fish that avoid their fins. Females can coexist in community tanks or sororities (groups of 4–6 females), provided there is enough space and hiding spots to reduce aggression.

Growth and Maintenance:

Crowntail Bettas grow up to 7 cm and are relatively low-maintenance. Perform regular water changes and monitor water quality to keep them healthy. Their bold fins make them prone to fin rot in poor conditions, so maintaining pristine water is essential.
