Practical care and setup

Tank requirements

• Minimum 5 gallons
• Stable heater set to about 76–82°F (24–28°C)
• Gentle filter that avoids strong currents

Water quality

• Conditioned freshwater with regular partial water changes (about 25% weekly)
• Aim for pH near 6.5–7.5

Layout ideas

• Soft substrate, live or artificial plants
• Secluded corners or dense foliage to reduce stress and showcase the tail

Diet and feeding

• High-quality Betta pellets or flakes, fed in small portions 2–3 times daily
• Occasional live or frozen treats as a supplementary reward

Tank mates

• For best tail health, consider solitary display or peaceful mid-water species in larger setups with careful monitoring and ample swimming space

Maintenance mindset

• Monitor temperature and water parameters regularly to sustain color and vigor
• Regular, steady feeding supports active fins

Why this variant stands out

#T300 continues the proven HMPK approach by balancing dramatic tail geometry with reliable, day-to-day behavior. The tail design and color retention reflect deliberate breeding choices aimed at real-world aquariums, not showroom gloss. You’ll get a fish that looks exceptional under home lighting and maintains its character through weeks of routine care, desk-to-desk transitions, and occasional tank rearrangements.
