The Premium Royal Blue Plakat Female Betta has the kind of colour that seems to glow from inside the fish. Her body is coated in a deep metallic royal blue, with darker shading around the head that gives the colour extra depth rather than a flat monochrome finish.

In a natural planted aquarium the blue becomes the focal point immediately. The compact Plakat finnage keeps the fish active and proportionate, while the metallic body catches light as she moves through the tank. It is a clean, classic colour form that still feels premium.

Care & keeping

Species: Betta splendens
Sex: Female
Fin type: Plakat / short-fin
Adult size: approximately 5–6 cm
Temperature: 24–28°C
pH: 6.5–7.5
Recommended tank: 20L+ for a single female
Difficulty: Beginner to intermediate

Keep her in warm, clean water with gentle current and access to the surface. Broad-leaved plants, floating cover and shaded areas help Bettas feel secure. A varied diet of premium pellets and frozen or live foods will support colour and condition.

Temperament & compatibility

Female Bettas can be inquisitive and territorial. They may work in peaceful community aquariums with suitable tankmates, but individual behaviour should always guide stocking decisions. Sorority setups require more space and structure than a single-fish tank.

Best for: aquarists searching for a vivid blue female Betta in South Africa with a strong metallic finish.
