3. Feeding & Nutrition

To maintain the intense colors of the “Royal Flare,” a specialized high-protein diet is essential.

• Primary Diet: Offer high-quality premium Betta pellets or flakes specifically designed to enhance color (2-3 pellets, twice daily).

• Treats (Live/Frozen): For optimal health and activity, supplement the diet with frozen or live food like Bloodworms, Brine Shrimp, or Daphnia (once or twice a week).

• Pro Tip: Do not overfeed; any uneaten food should be removed immediately to maintain water quality.

4. Tank Setup & Environment

• Filtration: Use a low-flow or sponge filter. The Royal Flare Betta’s elaborate fins can make swimming difficult in strong currents.

• Plants: Utilize real aquatic plants (like Anubias, Java Fern, or Amazon Sword) or high-quality silk plants. Avoid sharp plastic decorations that can tear its delicate fins.

• Hiding & Resting Spots: Provide small caves, a resting ledge near the surface (like a “Betta hammock”), or a hollow log for the fish to rest and sleep in.

• Water Changes: Perform a 25-30% water change weekly, ensuring you use a water conditioner to remove chlorine and heavy metals from tap water.

5. Behavior Note

The Royal Flare Betta is highly territorial. He should be kept alone in a single-species tank. Do not house two males together, as they will fight. He can sometimes live with peaceful, non-nipping tank mates like Nerite snails or specific species of Corydoras catfish in larger tanks (10+ gallons).
