Betta Patoti Pair for Sale – Rare & Stunning Wild Betta

Betta Patoti Pair – A Unique Addition to Your Aquarium

The Betta Patoti, a rare and fascinating wild Betta species, originates from the freshwater streams and swamps of Borneo, particularly in the South Kalimantan region of Indonesia. Unlike the common Betta splendens, this species exhibits a more elongated body with earthy hues, ranging from olive green to golden brown, and striking iridescent fins.

Keeping a Betta Patoti Pair allows aquarists to observe their natural behaviour, including fascinating courtship displays and parental care. This species is a great choice for a distinctive and rewarding fish-keeping experience.

Locality & Natural Habitat

The Betta Patoti is native to slow-moving blackwater rivers and forest streams of Borneo, specifically in South Kalimantan, Indonesia. These waters are rich in tannins from decaying leaves, giving them a characteristic brownish tint. The natural environment has:

• Soft, acidic water (pH 5.0 – 7.0)

• Warm temperatures (75°F – 82°F)

• Dense vegetation and submerged branches for cover

To replicate their natural habitat in captivity, it’s important to provide similar water conditions and ample hiding spots in the aquarium.

Simple Care Guide for Betta Patoti Pair

1. Tank Setup & Water Parameters

• Minimum Tank Size: 20-30 gallons for a pair

• Water Temperature: 75°F – 82°F (24°C – 28°C)

• pH Level: 5.0 – 7.0

• Water Hardness: Soft to moderate

• Filtration: Sponge filter or low-flow filtration to avoid strong currents

• Substrate: Dark sand or fine gravel to mimic their natural habitat

2. Diet & Feeding

Betta Patoti are carnivorous and thrive on a high-protein diet. Offer a mix of:
✅ Live or frozen foods (bloodworms, daphnia, brine shrimp)
✅ High-quality pellets formulated for wild bettas
✅ Occasional treats like small insects or blackworms

Feed them 1-2 times daily, ensuring they consume their food within a few minutes.

3. Tank Mates & Compatibility

Betta Patoti can be territorial, especially during breeding. They are best kept in:
✔ A species-only setup
✔ A well-planted community tank with peaceful, non-aggressive fish
✔ A pair (male & female) to encourage natural behaviour

Avoid housing them with fin-nippers or aggressive species.

4. Breeding & Behavior

• Betta Patoti is mouthbrooder, meaning the male incubates the fertilized eggs in his mouth.

• Courtship involves intricate displays, where the male wraps around the female to fertilize the eggs.

• Once eggs are laid, the male holds them in his mouth for 10-14 days before releasing free-swimming fry.

• To encourage breeding, maintain optimal water conditions and provide plenty of hiding spots.
