Betta Splendens Siamese Male Fighting Fish - Assorted Colors | Live Tropical Aquarium Fish

Although my betta is one of the cheaper 4.99 ones that you can pick up at most fish shops I do not have any local shops not big name or small ma and pa close. The closest is an hour away so this was a great option and worth the extra cost since they ship them well and they arrive in excellent condition. It did take a long time to get him but they did state this when purchasing so it was expected. He arrived on the earlier side of on time. Today is day 4 since I received him and he is in a 2 gallon quarantine tank at this time to make sure he remains his healthy self but he is doing well. He is curious, doesn't seem to be scared of anything, active, and quite pretty. He will head into his much bigger fulltime planted tank after Im sure all is well. He is little but that is ok as I look forward to watching him grow.

Would advise you not to order from this company. Box was not labeled as including live pet so mail person had no way to know it should not go in our mailbox. I was home and retrieved it from my mailbox quickly but if I was not home would have been more of an issue than it was. The fish was not well, very weak, and did not live over night. Warranty is only 2 hours from postal delivery so nothing I could do to get another fish or money back.

He easily survived the journey through the post, came healthy and energetic. None of that lethargic and withered look they sometimes have if raised under bad conditions. It took him a day or so to adapt to his 30-gallon tank (he was pretty skittish) with his only tankmate a reclusive algae eater. He parades around the top of the tank whenever he sees me coming and has an insatiable appetite for flakes, bloodworms, and betta feed. He's survived two months so far and looks to be in it for the long haul. This is also a great company who sold him, I read their bio and mission - they are honest people who don't cut corners.

I love the color of my beta. It survived its journey, and was well padded. The color is red and silver, vibrant. He seems to be at home in my 40 gal tank, and gets along with three large angelfish. I have seaweed for him to hide in, and he is doing quite well. It's been a few months now, and he is still, beautiful, vibrant and swimming around. I would consider another from this company.

I have two bettas now from this seller, the first one I got two years ago, and I got my second one a few days ago. the one I just got looks very healthy and the older one has not had any health issues or scares ever, they’re both in 5 gal heavily planted tanks I change the water every few weeks and they’ve always been happy healthy little dudes. Every betta I’ve gotten in person from my local petco has not lasted longer than 6 months so this seller is a great option if you do not have a good LFS in your area.

So I have to rescind my 1st 5 star review 1st fish I was happy He lived red white and blue, 2nd fish a beautiful big blue one with red front fins..was very happy..3rd fish looked pearl like on 4th attemptmp received a open wet box and packing..no fish..on replacement got a fish that couldnt move Looked bad and died within 18 hrs..Never swam Buyer feels if fish is DOA he will fix but blames your water if it dies right after.. believe me Betta's are very hardy and hard water is no issue thats why they can live in 1 cup of water for weeks..I believe due to the poor care with the fish before shipped has everything to do with hardiness once you get it..I can also warn you You will usually get the fish no one likes the colors..Do yourself a favor Go to local store with a mask on and pick one you like for $3.99 I have now dont that for 5 more..I dont want my $17 I want you aware of what you are risking to buy from this seller

I just figured I would go ahead and purchase the fish and see what would happen. Was kind of like Christmas in a sense. Lol. I had no idea what color or type of betta I was going to get. I ordered it and 6 days later I received my fish. I was so nervous opening the package, but there he was.....alive and well! The package was well insulated and padded and he also had a separate warming package in the box with him to keep the water temp from getting too cold. (It's cold here right now.) He's also very beautiful!! I'm pleasantly surprised. I just put him in his tank and he is now swimming around and checking it out! I would order from them again. 😊

Waited and waited with tracker going nowhere, so I contacted the CA seller who replied quickly. PO issues from virus, so they shipped expedited and the very young betta arrived healthy but totally scared. I'm sure with what the poor fellow must have gone through. Major protective packaging! Was so pleasantly surprised! He had plenty of air left in his little bag. I see dark blue on his outer fins. Hard to see well in the pic. He shows the potential of some red on his body once he grows up. White body and all means he's so very young. So its a wait and see. Meanwhile, he's getting used to a 5-gallon tank. I think he's confused as I'm sure he was originally kept in a very small holding tank before. But he's slowly getting it. Even blew up at a mirror. Smiles! Update February 2021: The poor little California Betta has grown from a whitish body with slight blue fins as a little baby to a lovely blue with red highlights adult. He has a lovely five gallon tank with lots of plants, neon tetras, small Cory cats and a zebra plecos. He lives in his floating log I got from Amazon, of course, (pandemic and all). I got this lovely fish for my husband recovering from major hydrocephalus who named him after an NCIS LA character, Deeks. The purchase of that betta has resurrected a long missed passion we had with fish. We're up to two five gallon and one ten gallon tank. Each with a betta. Gotta love them. Beware though... Owning fish and takes can be exhausting and expensive!!! But, if you love them, will go for it!
