A Stunning Black Variant Betta!

Introducing this beautiful Male Black Variant Halfmoon Plakat (HMPK) Betta, featuring a rich charcoal-black body, elegant dark finnage, and eye-catching red ventral fins with delicate pale tips.

His predominantly black coloration creates a dramatic and sophisticated appearance. The smooth, dark scales display subtle charcoal-gray highlights under aquarium lighting, adding depth to his overall coloration.

His broad, rounded caudal fin features dark pigmentation with faint reddish undertones, while the dorsal and anal fins complement his striking black appearance.

One of his most distinctive features is the beautiful contrast provided by his bright red ventral fins, which display elegant pale extensions.

This impressive combination of deep black coloration and subtle red accents makes this individual an attractive addition to any Betta collection.

WYSIWYG - What You See Is What You Get!

You will receive the actual individual Betta shown in the listing photographs. Please carefully review all pictures before purchasing.

Colors may appear slightly different depending on aquarium lighting, camera settings, and individual screen displays.

Betta coloration may temporarily fade during shipping due to stress. Allow approximately 48 hours to one week for your fish to settle into its new environment and display its normal coloration.
