🐟 Elephant Ear Betta Fish (Betta splendens)
Freshwater Betta • Solitary Species • Oversized Fin Display • Beginner-Friendly
 
📋 The Elephant Ear Betta (Betta splendens), also known as the Dumbo Betta, is a striking variety recognised by its oversized, wing-like pectoral fins that resemble elephant ears.
These dramatic side fins create a captivating graceful swimming style, making the fish appear to “flutter” through the water.
Like all bettas, males are best kept as solitary fish, as they can be territorial toward other bettas or similarly finned tankmates.
Expressive, colourful, and beginner-friendly, the Elephant Ear Betta is ideal for aquarists wanting a unique showpiece fish with high visual impact.
