Half Moon Plakat

Does anyone know how big a HMPK gets? Particularly a DragonScaled HMPK? And If so, do you have any pictures of how big your HMPK is?!?!

A normal betta grows to about 1.5 inch or 3 cm(from mouth to tip).
Unless your betta is a giant which grows to 3-5 inch.

I think 1 to 3 is the perfect size for these fish anything bigger or loger then that is ugly

[Tyrannic2Do]

ha haha thanks! and pretty sick-nasty betta Setsuna

IME plakats in general grow a little faster than long finned breeds, but given equal care they end up at about the same size. that said, you're more likely to have a trace of giant genetics in plakat lines than other breeds, so some of them may grow bigger because of that.

EDIT: just thought i should throw in that all of our biggest bettas have been either plakats or VT's.

HA HA! thanks a lot buddy! Plakats are pretty hard to find without any good hookups and I just don't really like VTs. But many thanks for your input!

Plakats are hard to find? Idk about you but they are very easy for me to get bro

[Tyrannic2Do]

Really? All I ever find are HMPKs, I can never find a genuine Plakat, unless I go to aquabid, but there's too many shipping fees aha ha

[Fabian]

Plakats in my area only cost 1 buck.
I can get them anytime.

[Tyrannic2Do]

dude that's SUPER CHEAP! Even VT's cost about $2-$3, but a $1 for a Plakat, that's crazy!
