Contents
Origin
- Found in the Mekong drainage in Cambodia.
Sexing
- Males are more colourful than females.
Tank compatibility
- A generally peaceful Betta which can be housed in male/female pairs or in species tanks, although multiple males will be territorial towards one another so need a lot of cover and hiding places. For a species tank with a group they should be kept in no smaller than 114 Litres (30 US G.).
Diet
- Feed meaty foods such as bloodworm.
Feeding regime
- Feed once or twice a day. It's recommended to skip a day once a week.
Environment specifics
- Prefers a well planted tank with hiding places with things such as rockwork and bogwood.
Behaviour
- Peaceful mostly, will occasionally nip, but it's more for show, and doesn't do any real damage.
Identification
- Colouration is more intense than the similar Malaysian Betta imbellis.
