Koi Female Betta (LB)

The Koi Female Betta is a locally bred Betta featuring the distinctive marbled colour and pattern variation that makes Koi Bettas so popular. Each fish is unique, with individual combinations of red, orange, white, black, blue, or metallic tones that can continue to develop as the fish matures.

Female Bettas are active, curious fish with plenty of personality and generally shorter finnage than males. They thrive in warm, gently filtered aquariums with plants, resting areas, and easy access to the surface. Their compact size and bold appearance make them an excellent centrepiece fish for smaller planted aquariums.
