Pink Dumbo Ear Betta

The Pink Dumbo Ear Betta is admired for its gentle, pastel tones and dramatic pectoral fins. Its body ranges from soft blush to near white, sometimes with translucent highlights that give it a delicate, ethereal appearance. The standout feature is its oversized “Dumbo” pectoral fins, often lighter or iridescent, which resemble fluttering ears and give the fish a graceful, floating motion as it swims. This variety is perfect for those seeking something both peaceful and visually striking.

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.
