My Hendra betta has been very active and colorful since I added it to a 2.5-gallon tank with drift wood and floating plants. The male shows vibrant colors and builds a small bubble nest under a leaf. It’s a peaceful fish that enjoys hiding among the decor.

The fish is small and calm. I kept it in a tank with dead leaves and a few plants. It doesn’t seem to stress easily and stays near the surface. The coloration is more vivid than other betta species I’ve had.

Great addition to a small aquarium. The Hendra betta is active and curious. It uses the drift wood and plants for shelter. I noticed the male building a bubble nest under a floating canister after a few weeks.
