The All-New Fluval Betta Premium Aquarium Kit is designed to replicate the natural tropical habitats of B. splendens and comes equipped with custom filtration, natural soft glow LED lighting, and a convenient pre-set heater. Though wild B. splendens can be found in Cambodia, Laos, Vietnam, Malaysia, and Thailand, the stunning specimens we often see in captivity today are the result of selective breeding combining a variety of species. In Southeast Asia, B. splendens are typically found in rice paddies, ponds, and small streams, which tend to be shallow, slow-moving, quite warm, and dense in vegetation.
CUSTOM BETTA FILTRATION
In the wild, Bettas inhabit slow, gentle moving bodies of water. Captive-bred varieties typically possess extravagant, flowing finnage and as such are poor swimmers. Therefore, the need for gentle, diffused water movement is extremely important.
GENTLE INTAKE & OUTPUT
Featuring multiple slots over a large area to help slow water entry and protect delicate Betta fins.
PATENT PENDING DIFFUSION CHAMBER
Disperses flow and polishes water during final stage of filtration before gently releasing it back into the aquarium through widened output slots.
MULTI-STAGE CLEANING
B. splendens are typically found in habitats naturally dense with vegetation. These bodies of water are extremely clean as they are extensively filtered by the plants. As a result, both wild and captive-bred Betta splendens prefer very well-filtered environments.
- FOAM BLOCK - Provides effective mechanical filtration by trapping large particles and debris.
- CARBON - Effective at removing heavy metals, odors, discolorations, organic contaminants and pollutants.
- BIOMAX - Porous rings allow beneficial bacteria to thrive while helping to reduce and control ammonia and nitrite.
- RESIN PAD (sold seperately) - Provides additional cleaning stage to trap debris, diffuse water flow and perform specific filtration applications
- DIFFUSION CHAMBER PAD - Helps diffuse flow and polish water for ultimate clarity
PRE-SET BETTA HEATER
As B. splendens live in tropical climates in the wild, recreating warmer temperatures for domestic varieties is important. If not kept warm enough, specimens can become less active, lose their appetite and fall ill. Bettas typically thrive in a temperature range of 25-27°C. Fluval 10W P Series heater consistently maintains ideal water temperature to replicate a Betta’s natural tropical habitat 26°C. Fully integrated within rear chamber compartment for a seamless look. Pre-set – no hassle, no fuss.
NATURAL SOFT-GLOW LIGHTING
In the wild, the habitats of Betta splendens are often covered in floating plants and emergent vegetation that help to diffuse natural sunlight. In captivity, they prefer to be kept under soft, subdued lighting. Doing so helps to make them feel more comfortable, makes their colors stand out better and provides a more natural aesthetic look to the aquarium. Energy-efficient lighting creates a relaxed atmosphere to simulate a Betta’s naturally shaded environment. Calibrated to accentuate vibrant Betta colours. Convenient on/off touch switch, works with most mechanical and digital timers.
