As stated above, low water flow is necessary for this somewhat retiring species. Some cover at the top of the water column is also appreciated. Otherwise, this betta species is very undemanding. It will thrive in a planted aquarium with no boisterous or fin-nipping tankmates. While it may be compatible with some bottom-dwelling species and some other peaceful fish, males of this species can sometimes be very aggressive toward other fish in the middle and top of the water column. It is generally peaceful with invertebrates too large to be considered prey. Also, as is common knowledge, males of this species cannot be kept together under any circumstances and females cannot be kept with males except temporarily during well-planned and supervised breeding. Females can be kept with other females as long as there is plenty of space and cover.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eThis betta species is not a picky eater and will eat a variety of meaty frozen, dry, and live foods.
