A stunning ornamental betta with heavily branched fins and flower-like finnage

The Flowertail Male Betta is a highly decorative variety known for its extravagant finnage that spreads outward in layered, petal-like formations. With heavy ray branching and dramatic fin extension, this betta creates a flowing “flower” appearance when fully flared.

Available in a range of vibrant colours and patterns, Flowertail Bettas make exceptional centrepiece fish for nano aquariums and display tanks. Their long fins move beautifully through the water, especially in calm environments with gentle flow. Like all male bettas, they are territorial and should be housed alone with warm, stable water and plenty of resting spots near the surface.
