Our Story

I started, like most folks, with community tanks and all that jazz. Then, boom! I saw a photo of a wild betta and was hooked. Since then, I’ve kept many species, bred them, and become obsessed. People always asked me questions, so I figured, why not share all this wild betta knowledge in one place?

Popular Wild Betta Species:

• Betta Imbellis: The Peaceful Gem Smaller and less flashy than some of its cousins, the Betta imbellis stuns with a shimmering green-red coloration. It’s a fantastic choice for community settings where its peaceful nature shines.

• Betta Mahachaiensis: Vibrant and Bold Known for its captivating green-blue scales and striking dark ventrals, the Betta mahachaiensis adds a splash of untamed beauty to any aquarium.

• Hybrid (Alien): A Blend of Betta Beauty The product of crossbreeding within the splendens complex, Hybrid (Alien) bettas are a testament to the stunning diversity found within this group. Their unique colors and patterns are a testament to the art of responsible breeding.

• Betta Smaragdina “Copper”: My Original Inspiration While technically not a true copper variety, my first Betta smaragdina, with its brown-copper scales, holds a special place in my heart. It’s a constant reminder of how the wild world of bettas constantly surprises and delights.
