A pearlescent platinum-white female Betta with the delicate extended rays of the Crowntail form. Its compact female silhouette and pale metallic body distinguish it from the male Platinum Crowntail.

Why you'll love this Betta

Creating the right home

Observe interactions closely if sharing a larger aquarium with peaceful species. Acclimate gradually after arrival and offer a quiet settling period.
