Koi Betta – Male (Assorted)

Scientific Name: Betta splendens
Common Name: Koi Betta
Sex: Male

The Koi Betta is a stunning variety of Betta splendens prized for its bold, unpredictable patterns and vibrant mix of colors. Inspired by the appearance of ornamental koi, these Bettas can display combinations of red, orange, white, black, blue, and other tones across the body and fins.

One of the biggest appeals of Koi Bettas is that no two fish look exactly alike. Each individual develops its own unique combination of colors, markings, and pattern placement, making every Koi Betta a truly distinctive centerpiece fish.

Care Level: Easy
Temperament: Territorial
Adult Size: Approximately 2.5–3 inches
Minimum Tank Size: 5 gallons recommended
Temperature: 76–82°F
pH: Approximately 6.5–7.5

Recommended Setup: Keep in a heated, filtered aquarium with gentle water movement. Live or soft artificial plants, smooth décor, hiding areas, and resting spots near the surface provide a comfortable environment. Avoid sharp decorations that could damage the Betta's fins.

Feed a high-quality Betta pellet as the primary diet, supplemented with appropriately sized frozen or live foods such as brine shrimp, daphnia, and bloodworms.

Tankmates: Male Bettas are territorial and should never be housed with another male Betta. Some individuals may live successfully with carefully selected peaceful tankmates in an appropriately sized aquarium, but temperament varies between individual fish. Avoid aggressive and fin-nipping species.
