Water Quality: They thrive in slightly acidic to neutral water conditions with a pH range of 6.5 to 7.5 and soft to moderately hard water.

Lifespan: With proper care, Double Tail Male Fighters typically live for about 3 to 5 years in captivity.
Behavior and Personality: These bettas are known for their confident and inquisitive nature. While they are territorial and should not be housed with other male bettas, they are interactive and responsive to their owners. Their vibrant color, flowing fins, and animated personality make them an engaging and beautiful addition to the aquarium.
