Halfmoon Bettas are the same species as other more common bettas (Betta Splendens). They have the same care requirements and have a life- expectancy of about 5 years.
Caring for your Betta is straightforward. These fish thrive in a heated, filtered aquarium with plenty of space to swim and explore. Add a nice gentle sponge filter to oxygenate the water without being too rough on their flowy fins.
Bettas are omnivores and enjoy a varied diet of high-quality pellets, frozen or live foods. You can get them to do tricks and eat out of your hand. I'm not kidding.
Like all Bettas, Half Moons are known for their aggressive but curious nature, making them a great addition to any species- only aquarium. They require minimal maintenance and make an ideal choice for both beginners and experienced aquarists.
Care Parameters:
These are not your sad little pet shop Bettas stuck in a cup of stagnant water. Mine are kept in their own space with shelter, leaf litter for tannins, and live plants. They are fed Baby brine shrimp, tubifex worms, frozen foods, flakes and pellets to get them used to a variety. Gotta grow those tails!
It has to be said: Betta fish do not belong in anything smaller than Three gallons of water volume. They need room!
It is also much harder to maintain the water quality in such a small space. Give the poor thing at least five gallons!
