A minimum of 5 gallons is recommended, though larger setups provide more stability and enrichment. Water temperature should be kept warm and consistent, and gentle filtration is important due to their long fins and preference for calm water. They appreciate planted tanks with hiding spots and resting places near the surface. Regular water changes are essential to maintain water quality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1186\" data-end=\"1468\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1186\" data-end=\"1195\"\u003eDiet:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"1195\" data-end=\"1198\"\u003eThis species is carnivorous and thrives on a high-protein diet.

In some cases, they can coexist with peaceful, non-fin-nipping species in larger, well-planned community tanks, but care must be taken to ensure compatibility. Avoid other male bettas and aggressive or brightly colored fish that may trigger stress or aggression.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Poseidon Aquatics And Plants","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48052570816734,"sku":null,"price":79.99,"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\/hmpk-galaxy-grade-a-betta-male","provider":"Poseidon Aquatics And Plants","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
