Betta Mahachaiensis

This is a grey hybrid of the Betta Mahachai.  The grey coloration is a homozygous recessive iridesence with no metallic gene (bb,--).

This betta is a newer species discovered in 2012 and can be found in central and southern Thailand. They encompassed habitat such as still moving water bodies such as marshland, ponds and ditches where the water is quite murky. They are also unique in that they can be found in water with measurable level of salt, being able to live in brackish water habitat. Mahachaiensis or Mahachais are known by their highly iridescence tail and the dual bars that covers their cheek plates.

These are quality Betta Mahachaiensis from our reputable breeder from Vietnam.
