In this female form, you get all the elegance of the Dumbo trait combined with a slightly more active, curious personality compared to males. Her Halfmoon tail spreads into a near-perfect 180-degree fan when flared, creating a soft, rounded silhouette that contrasts beautifully with the fluttering “ears” at the front. Coloration can vary widely—ranging from soft pastels to vibrant, high-contrast patterns—but the movement is always the highlight, giving her a graceful, almost floating presence in the tank.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"726\" data-end=\"1282\"\u003eFemales are often underestimated, but this variety proves otherwise. She’s interactive, observant, and tends to explore her environment more than many long-finned males. While still territorial, she can sometimes be kept in carefully planned community setups with peaceful, non-nipping tankmates. A well-planted aquarium suits her best, especially with gentle flow—those large pectoral fins can make strong currents exhausting. Provide resting spots like broad-leaf plants or floating cover, and maintain warm, stable water conditions to keep her thriving.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1284\" data-end=\"1307\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1284\" data-end=\"1305\"\u003eCare Information:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-start=\"1308\" data-end=\"1793\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"1osj4xx\" data-start=\"1308\" data-end=\"1377\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-start=\"1310\" data-end=\"1324\"\u003eTank Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e Minimum 5 gallons (larger preferred for stability)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"1q324fx\" data-start=\"1378\" data-end=\"1416\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-start=\"1380\" data-end=\"1396\"\u003eTemperature:\u003c\/strong\u003e 76–82°F (24–28°C)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"p9p92w\" data-start=\"1417\" data-end=\"1436\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-start=\"1419\" data-end=\"1426\"\u003epH:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6.5–7.5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"9hrhrv\" data-start=\"1437\" data-end=\"1532\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-start=\"1439\" data-end=\"1455\"\u003eTemperament:\u003c\/strong\u003e Semi-aggressive; can be kept with peaceful tankmates if carefully selected\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"19bhsqi\" data-start=\"1533\" data-end=\"1634\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-start=\"1535\" data-end=\"1550\"\u003eTank Setup:\u003c\/strong\u003e Planted tank with gentle filtration, low flow, and resting spots near the surface\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"1wiakma\" data-start=\"1635\" data-end=\"1748\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-start=\"1637\" data-end=\"1646\"\u003eDiet:\u003c\/strong\u003e High-quality betta pellets, supplemented with frozen or live foods like bloodworms and brine shrimp\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-section-id=\"1kv7t8s\" data-start=\"1749\" data-end=\"1793\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong data-start=\"1751\" data-end=\"1764\"\u003eLifespan:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2–4 years with proper care\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1795\" data-end=\"1997\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1795\" data-end=\"1807\"\u003eSummary:\u003c\/strong\u003e A graceful and unique female betta with signature “elephant ear” fins and a full Halfmoon tail—perfect for hobbyists looking for movement, personality, and standout beauty in a single fish.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Poseidon Aquatics And Plants","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48130874376414,"sku":null,"price":34.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0645\/4768\/4574\/files\/Photo.png?v=1741200651","url":"https:\/\/poseidonaquaticsandplants.com\/products\/dumbo-ear-halfmoon-betta-female","provider":"Poseidon Aquatics And Plants","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
