The Halfmoon Rosetail blends a broad Halfmoon silhouette with extra branching in the caudal rays for layered, rose-petal-like folds.

What makes this fish special

This specifically graded Halfmoon Rosetail is separate from the assorted Rosetail offering. Its colours and presence are best appreciated in a stable, planted setup with open swimming space alongside sheltered areas.

Key care parameters

  • Scientific name: Betta splendens (domestic ornamental form)
  • Minimum aquarium: a cycled, heated 20-litre aquarium for an individual; provide a secure lid
  • Temperature: 24–28°C
  • pH: approximately 6.5–7.5, with consistency taking priority
  • Adult size: typically approximately 6–7 cm including finnage, depending on variety
  • Feeding: specialist high-quality Betta pellets; add appropriately sized frozen or live foods for variety
  • Temperament: territorial; males must not be kept together
  • Difficulty: beginner to intermediate with proper aquarium maintenance

Set-up and compatibility

Use soft-leaved plants, smooth decor and comfortable surface resting positions. Bettas breathe atmospheric air and should always be able to reach the surface; avoid excessive filter current. Introduce any companions cautiously, avoiding fin nippers and competitive fish. Acclimate slowly after transport and monitor appetite and behaviour.

Photograph is representative; assorted fish and marbled forms can differ in colour or pattern.
