Green Alien Betta (Betta sp. hybrid)

Probably the single most popular fish kept around the world, the Betta or Siamese Fighting fish has been popular in its native Thailand for centuries, and has been bred into dozens of color forms and strains. The Green Alien Plakat is a hybrid of line bred and wild Betta sp. which display beautiful vivid blue-green coloration with intricate patterns in their fins. Like most Bettas, they are incredibly hardy, with the ability to breathe air from the surface which has led to their reputation as a popular “bowl fish”. In reality, Bettas will do best in a small aquarium with a heater and some form of filtration. As their name implies, males of this species will fight and must be kept singly but females can typically be kept in groups.
