Betta (Siamese Fighting Fish) – Premium Assorted (Double) Twin Tail – PAIR

Assorted Twin Tail Pair – Double-Tail Wonders That Double the Charm!

The Assorted Twin Tail Pair features a hand-selected male and female with the distinctive split caudal fin that creates the signature double-tail appearance. These high-quality bettas arrive in random colours from premium imported stock, and each pair combines elegant form with active personalities. Aquarists enjoy watching how the twin tails flow gracefully while the fish patrol their space with confidence.

Size and Lifespan

Both the male and female start at around 5 cm body length and reach a maximum size of about 6–7 cm. When owners maintain stable water parameters, provide a nutritious diet, and minimise stress, these bettas often live 3–5 years, offering long-term enjoyment in the aquarium.

Ideal Tank Setup

Choose a spacious tank with gentle water movement and install a reliable heater plus an adjustable filter to keep conditions consistent. Arrange plants and decorations thoughtfully so the pair can claim territories and find quiet resting spots.

To replicate its natural habitat:

• Use soft, slightly acidic water that stays clean
• Include plenty of live or silk plants for cover
• Fit a low-flow filter and heater for steady temperatures
• Provide open areas alongside floating plants for surface activity

Compatible Tank Mates

Pick peaceful companions that do not nip fins or compete for food and space. Larger tanks reduce conflict, but you should always watch introductions closely to ensure harmony.

Suitable tank mates include:

• Snails such as nerite or ramshorn varieties
• Small shrimp like cherry or ghost types
• Non-aggressive schooling fish in groups of six or more
• Bottom-dwelling corydoras that remain calm

Diet and Feeding

Supply premium betta pellets as the core diet and mix in frozen or live foods such as bloodworms, daphnia, and brine shrimp a few times weekly. Feed small amounts twice daily, remove any uneaten portions immediately, and adjust quantities based on their activity to maintain excellent water quality.

Breeding and Behaviour of Assorted Twin Tail Pair

Males build elaborate bubble nests when breeding conditions align, while females display vertical postures to signal readiness. The twin-tail form encourages energetic swimming and active territory defence. Keep the environment calm and routines consistent so natural behaviours emerge without added stress.
