-
Tank Size: Provide a tank of at least 5-10 gallons for a single Galaxy Betta, ensuring ample space for swimming and exploration.
-
Water Parameters: Maintain stable conditions with a temperature range of 78-80°F (25-27°C), a pH level of 6.5-7.5, and soft to moderately hard water.
-
Filtration: Use gentle filtration to avoid strong currents, as Bettas prefer still or slow-moving water. Ensure excellent water quality and regular water changes.
-
Aquascape: Create an environment with live or silk plants, floating vegetation, and hiding spots such as caves or ceramic pots. Bettas appreciate a well-structured tank.
-
Tank Mates: Galaxy Bettas are typically best kept alone due to their territorial and often aggressive nature, especially males. Female Bettas may be kept together in a larger tank with caution.
-
Diet: They are carnivores, and their diet should consist of high-quality betta pellets, live or frozen foods like brine shrimp, daphnia, and bloodworms.
