William Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 I am getting a reverse trio of betta Albimarginata, they are wild caught. Ph is 6.8 10 gallon aquarium with plants and tannins. Any advice or tips Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWilson Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 I have not kept them yet but am looking at them. Very cool! Please post pics when they come. I read that they are jumpers so you’ll want a lid. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve and His Animals Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 You might want your pH to be lower, like closer to 6, maybe 6.5 at the highest since they're wild. The lid is also a must if you plan on breeding, some people even cellophane wrap the top since the fry need humid air for their labyrinth organ to develop properly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the tank they are going in because I forgot to post a picture of it there is duck weed on top and the tank occupants aren't going to be there so don't worry. There is peat moss in the filter as well. I tested the pH it is at 6.5 to 6.6 10 minutes ago. Edited February 25, 2021 by William Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colu Posted March 11, 2021 Share Posted March 11, 2021 (edited) Beautiful species of Betta it should be very interesting when you breed with them being mouth brooders Edited March 11, 2021 by Colu 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
