What are the different types of bettas?

Answer 1

Answer
Yes, there are diff. types of bettas. There are moontail, doubletail, crowntail, and many more. I don't know if any of them are harder to raise it is just what type u want and what you are willing to pay. Sometimes you can get some nice regular male or female bettas from your local pet store. My favorite types are the double-moon tail and the double-crown tail in the color of red/blue/yellow. My favorite color of bettas is yellow if it is bold other wise i like a mixture of blue and red. Answer
Veiltails are the best selection for a beginner. These are the ones sold in pet stores. They come in alot of different pretty colors and are not picky about their tanks or food.
I used to raise Bettas on a commercial scale and had over 50,000 fish at one time. I kept numerous tail types including Plakat, Halfmoon, Halfmoon Plakat, DoubleTail, Double Tail Plakat, Spade Tail, Rose Tail, Delta, Super Delta, Fuse Tail and Fuse Fin.
There are also Ribbon Tail, Crown Tail, King Crown Tail, Supreme King Crown Tail, and the Veiltails as I mentioned... but I did not raise these.
None are harder to keep than the others... but breeding them is something else. Also, better-bred and show-quality fish can cost $50 or more. Most average $10 to $20 each, though some go much higher.
I imported most of my stock from Vietnam, Thailand, Malaysia and Singapore.
There are several hundred colors and color combinations. Miniature and Giant strains of bettas are also being perfected. Some Giants are sold now, but they are not usually 100% pure giant. They are mostly 50% to 75% giant blood.


Males have long tails and are more expensive but prettier and last a long time. Girl betas are small to small and are cheaper they live the same amount of time and are not that pretty you can get them at the petstore and Walmart.





Answer:


Veiltails are no better a beginner Betta than any other tail or fin type. Even Petco is starting to sell some of the more exotic tail types quite inexpensively. It's more a matter of what you like, as all the fancy Bettas are equally easy to care for.

Aside from the fancy Betta splendens that are most commonly available, there are dozens of other Betta species that can be found. These are the wild types. Some are as easy to care for as fancy Bettas, and some are very difficult to keep. Go to http://www.ibcbettas.org for more information on both domestic and wild bettas.

Answer 3

There are probably as many different names for Bettas as there are pages in a book. Every person who breeds a fish that looks slightly different from the others seems to think up a fancy name and then try to charge a fancy price for it. When it all boils down to it, a Betta splendens is a Betta splendens no matter what fancy name some people call it.
