🏝️ Ideal Tank Setup
Lavender Halfmoons look absolutely stunning in planted tanks — the lush greens make those soft purples pop. Add silk or live plants for resting spots (halfmoon fins are delicate and can snag on sharp decor), a gentle filter with low flow to keep those flowing fins pristine, and always a lid — bettas are jumpers! A dark or natural substrate lets the lavender coloration truly shine.
