Koi Betta - Orange, Red, Black, and White WYSIWYG

Koi Bettas are part of the Betta splendens genus and species that is popular among home aquarists around the world.

With a cylindrical body that is typical among Koi, they have stockier bodies with no curves. The body color migrates beyond the base of their brightly colored fins in iridescent splendor. These multi-colored Bettas are striking specimen that are highly sought after for home aquarists’ freshwater aquariums. Although female Betta are also eye-catching, LiveAquaria® is offering the larger male option.

Koi Betta shares the same care requirements as other Betta splendens varieties. As such, only one male Betta should be kept in an aquarium. In their natural environment, Bettas live in heavily planted slow or standing bodies of water, such as floodplains, canals, and rice patties so do not require a large tank environment. Care should be taken not to house Bettas in jars or bowls even though their length at maturity is about 2.5”. With an easy care level, even beginning hobbyists can achieve success keeping this beautiful species of freshwater fish.

This specific Betta is a carnivore and should be offered a varied diet including quality flake foods, pelleted Betta food, and frozen or freeze-dried bloodworms and brine shrimp.
