Betta Type

By tail type :

Plakat (PK)








Plakat is short tailed Betta.

Half-moon Plakat (HMPK)
Half-moon Plakat has a 180 degree spread when flared but tail length is short.

Crown-tail Plakat (CTPK)
 
Crown-tail Plakat has tail either rounded or with a 180 degree spread and with elongated rays giving it a "spikey"appearance but the tail length is short.

Veil-tail (VT)
Veil-tail betta has long tail, with a long anal and dorsal fin, and droops down from the caudal peduncle.

Double-tail (DT)
It is a genetic trait that causes the caudal fin to grow into two lobes rather than one.

Double Veil-tail (DTVT)
This is a cross between a double-tail and a veil-tail.

Round-tail
The fin shape is round, rather than straight edges of a Delta-tail, but fuller and longer than that of a Plakat.

Delta-tail (DeT)
Delta-tail are very similar to Half-moon but have less than a 180 degrees spread when flared.

Super Delta-tail (SDeT)
Super Delta-tail are nearly a Half-moon but not quite, Deltas are far less than a Half-moon

Half-moon (HM)
Half-moon is characterized by having the full 180 degree spread when flared, forming a "D" shape with straight edging. Dorsal and anal fins are also dramatically larger than those on other fin types.

Over Hal-moon (OHM)
Over Half-moon is the extreme end of the Half-moon where the spread when flared is over 180 degrees.

Half-sun (HS)
Half-sun has the spread of a Half-moon with the slight crowning of a Crown-tail. The Half-suns have the tips of the rays protruding beyond the web, but not enough to be a Crown-tail or Comb-tail.

Comb-tail
Comb-tail have the typical droop of the Veil-tail but combined with some extended rays on all fins to varying degrees.

Crown-tail (CT)
Crown-tail have the rays extended to varying degrees on all fins giving the fish a "spikey" appearance.

Spade-tail (ST)
Spade-tail has an equal spread on either side of the fin, similar to a Round-tail, but with tail finishing in a point rather than a rounded edge.

Rose-tail (RT)
Rose-tail is an extreme Half-moon with excessive branching of the rays giving the tail a "ruffled" edge. If there is a huge amount of branching it can be referred to as a"Feather-tail".

Feather-tail (FT)
Although it's an extension of the Rose-tail effect, the Feather-tail has much more than a ruffled appearance, the excessive branching actually gives it the look of the feathers, with a kind of zigzag effect edge.
