Pastel Red Dumbo Plakat Male Betta 3cm

The Pastel Red Dumbo Plakat Male Betta (Betta splendens) is a charming and unique variety, combining soft pastel red tones with the distinctive oversized "Dumbo" pectoral fins that fan out like elephant ears. The Plakat tail form keeps the fins short and strong, making this fish an active and eye-catching display specimen.
