Betta (Siamese Fighting Fish) – Premium Assorted – FEMALE

Premium Assorted Female Bettas – Peaceful Options for Community Aquariums

Premium Assorted Female Bettas arrive hand-picked from imported stock by our expert team. Australian aquarists select these females because they show less aggression than males. They form sororities successfully and add lively movement to planted tanks. Colours and fin styles vary randomly, including halfmoons, crowntails, super deltas, and twin tails.

Size and Lifespan

These females measure around 5-6 cm in body length at maturity. With excellent conditions, they live 2-4 years, though some reach up to 5 years when well cared for.

Ideal Tank Setup

Keep in heated, filtered tanks with gentle flow. Add plenty of live plants, hiding spots, and surface cover to reduce stress. Perform regular partial water changes to maintain quality.

To replicate its natural habitat:

• Install a heater to hold steady tropical temperatures
• Use a sponge filter for low current and biological filtration
• Plant densely with tall stems and floating varieties
• Include driftwood, caves, and leaf litter for shelter

Compatible Tank Mates

These females coexist well in larger setups. Choose peaceful companions that occupy different tank levels. Avoid fin-nippers or overly active species that cause stress.

Suitable tank mates include:

• Neon tetras and ember tetras
• Pygmy or julii corydoras
• Cherry shrimp and amano shrimp
• Nerite or mystery snails
• Otocinclus catfish

Diet and Feeding

Premium Assorted Female Bettas accept high-quality pellets as their staple. Supplement regularly with frozen or live foods like brine shrimp, daphnia, and bloodworms. Feed small portions twice daily to prevent overeating.

Breeding and Behaviour of Premium Assorted Female Bettas

These bettas display bubble-nest building during breeding attempts, though sororities focus on group dynamics. They swim actively, flare occasionally, and establish hierarchies. In well-planted tanks, they spend time exploring and resting among leaves.
