ALIENS ARE BACK

hey everyone injust want to let you know that aliens are back in the shop!

We just got them in 2 weeks ago and they look amazing. We got Blue, grey, green and copper a wide array of colors to choose from. If you're looking to get a pair or even a sorority this is the time to do it!

Aliens are a hybrid of multiple types of Wild bettas. This cause them to have full extensive iridescence all over their body while also retaining body shape and forms of wild type fish. Keep in mind, wild hybrids like aliens are not wild bettas, they do not exist in the wild but the care is similar.

Smaragdina guitar are BACK in stock. Don't miss out on one of the most unique and beautiful wild betta.

the Betta smaragdina "Guitar", a specific variant of the wild Emerald Betta. This strain is known for its striking iridescent green and blue coloration, often with unique patterning resembling the curves of a guitar particularly in the caudal fins. Like other Betta splendens, it is a territorial species, with males displaying aggressive behaviors. These fish thrive in well-maintained, soft-water environments that mimic their natural habitat in Southeast Asia.

Wild betta mahachiensis "blue" is now 40% off. Hurry before the end of the year!

Fish are very healthy and ready to breed.

Blue mahachiensis are a hybrid version of the wild betta mahachiensis. They are genotypically heterozygous with no metallics gene. Meaning spawning blue mahachai will only result in 50% blue with 25% grey, 25% turquoise. Non metallic means they will not change color under different angle of light. Care for blue mahachai is like any splendens with no specialized water perameters with clean water. Very easy fish to breed and care for!

NEW Coccina sp.!

This is not burdigala or uberis, this is a new species call sp. Makuatic. A burdigala type species with large robust body but with a spot on its flank, can be mistaken as uberis but as you can see it has stub face like burdigala. Unlike uberis it has a large strong body like that or burdigala. Not much is known so observation is necessary.

This new fish is available on my website, but be fast because they won't be back in stock again.

Some photo of my current stock of smaragdina buriram, these fish are bred by my good friend minh from vietnam and hand selected to be shipped to customers here in the US. Of course, all my fish go through a quarantine process, so they will be some of the best bettas money can buy.

Betta smaragdina "buriram" is a type of smaragdina with extra thick iridescence. They are spectacular and probably some of the best splendens in my stock.

Let me know if you have any questions

Keeping betta splendens pairs together long-term

Betta keepers and breeders have always want to keep males and females together long term, but is it possible?

In this video I will discuss the idea of keeping betta males and females together, not just for breeding but long-term. There is lots of useful information that many of you would appreciate :)

I will also announce the winner of last week wild betta pair giveaway. I will do another giveaway in my next video, so stay tuned!

Betta smaragdina "buriram"

How are they different from normal smaragdina?

I use to think this was a hybrid, but now I think that it is a naturally occurring smaragdina population.

The most distinctive feature of buriram is that their iridescence is much more "spread" and are thicker when compared to regular smaragdina. The iridescence between the dorsal fin rays are very thick and prominent. The thicker iridescence makes their metallic shine differently than Smaragdina guitars
