Platnium Dumbo Ear Betta

The Platinum Dumbo Ear Betta is a true showstopper with its solid, reflective metallic white (platinum) body that radiates under aquarium lighting. Its signature large pectoral "Dumbo" fins, often white or pearlescent, give it a unique and elegant presence in the tank. This variety is known for its symmetry, clean color, and graceful movement—ideal for aquarists looking to add a bold yet peaceful centerpiece.

While they can tolerate cooler water and live in tanks without heaters, the very cold winters in South Africa can be tough on them. Providing a heater during colder months helps maintain stable, warmer water temperatures — leading to healthier and happier fish.

Bettas thrive on a high-protein diet. Feed them quality betta pellets, frozen foods like bloodworms, daphnia, and brine shrimp to support vibrant color and overall health.

Adding supplements like Seachem Garlic Guard and Azoo Discus Vitamins to your betta’s diet can help boost immunity, improve appetite, and keep your fish in peak condition. These extras, combined with a balanced high-protein diet, go a long way in supporting your betta’s overall health and vibrancy.
