Crescent betta Profile

The Crescent betta is a captivating variety of freshwater fish known for its distinctive crescent-moon-shaped tail and vibrant colors, typically showcasing a spectrum ranging from fiery reds to deep blues. Originating from the tropical waters of Southeast Asia, specifically areas around Thailand, Cambodia, and Vietnam, this fish exhibits a slender body with elongated fins. Despite its striking appearance, the Crescent betta is not as well known or commonly found in the aquarium hobby as its cousin, the Siamese fighting fish (Betta splendens), but it continues to gain attention for its unique beauty and graceful demeanor.
