The Betta Doubletail (Betta splendens) is a remarkable ornamental fish known for its distinctive twin-lobed tail and vibrant color patterns. Originating from selective breeding of the Siamese fighting fish, this Betta variety offers both visual appeal and personality, making it an ideal choice for aquarists of all levels.

💧 Appearance and Behavior

Doubletail Bettas are easily recognized by their split caudal fin, which creates a symmetrical, flowing look. Their body shape is slightly shorter and broader than single-tail varieties, providing an elegant balance when swimming.
They are generally territorial, especially males, and should be housed individually to prevent aggression.

🪴 Tank Requirements

A minimum tank size of 10 liters (2.5 gallons) is recommended, though larger setups promote better health and stability. Provide gentle filtration, stable warm temperatures (24–28°C), and ample hiding spaces with plants or driftwood. Bettas thrive in low-flow environments, similar to their natural habitats.

🍽️ Diet and Feeding

Feed a balanced, protein-rich diet consisting of Betta-specific pellets, along with occasional treats of brine shrimp or bloodworms. Feed small portions once or twice daily to avoid overfeeding and maintain water quality.

❤️ Care and Compatibility

This species is low-maintenance and perfect for beginners. Males should be housed alone, while females can coexist in carefully managed community setups. Bettas appreciate calm tank mates like snails or peaceful bottom dwellers.
