SHOW GRADE Betta Albimarginata (CG237) 1ST

This genetically screened Betta albimarginata (CG237) delivers a consistent 180‑degree horizontal tail spread and perfectly aligned caudal rays, eliminating the crooked fin structures and structural collapse common in standard retail lines.

Predictable Phenotype & Pigment Retention

Dedicated strain management stabilizes skeletal layout while locking in vivid pigment density that resists premature fading under indoor aquarium lighting. Unlike mass-produced hybrids that mutate across generations, this lineage prioritizes exhibition-ready symmetry and authentic white-edged morphology throughout maturation.

Environmental Requirements

Preserve ventral scale integrity by maintaining a minimum five-gallon volume lined exclusively with fine, smoothed substrate. Install a low-flow filtration unit to eliminate forced circulation; strong current permanently bends the delicate ray edges into overlapping defects. Position the enclosure behind clear glass or on a freestanding stand to secure unobstructed rear-view monitoring during daily husbandry checks.

Water Parameters & Feeding Schedule

Set submersible thermostats between 76°F and 82°F (24–28°C), then buffer pH steadily between 6.5 and 7.5 through routine twenty-five percent water exchanges using dechlorinated tap water. Provide species-formulated pellets on a measured twice-daily cycle, discarding residual particles within three minutes to prevent localized ammonia spikes. Supplement with intermittent frozen protein to maintain scale hardness and support controlled fin regeneration. Arrange drifting wood and dense foliage beneath surface coverage to create shaded refuges that interrupt territorial pacing and lower stress indicators.
