Halfmoon Mustard Gas Samurai Male Betta Fish (CRT-OTH-M-003)

The Curated Collection

Some fish are purchased to build a collection.

Others become the collection.

This exceptional Halfmoon Mustard Gas Samurai was never sourced with the intention of retail. He was selected for my own personal Curated Collection because fish combining clean Samurai armour with true Mustard Gas finnage are exceptionally uncommon, particularly within the UK.

The contrast is what makes this fish extraordinary. Dense metallic Samurai scaling flows into rich mustard-yellow fins framed by deep black edging, creating a combination that is both powerful and remarkably refined. It is a fish that commands attention without needing exaggerated colour or pattern.

The Curated Collection exists to house the fish I would happily keep for life. While every fish within this collection remains available to purchase, pricing reflects both rarity and the difficulty of replacing specimens of this calibre. Once sold, another may not become available for months—or even years.

This is not simply another imported betta.
It is a fish chosen for my own collection before it was ever offered to yours.

As with every fish at Obsidian Betta Co., this is a WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) listing. The fish photographed is the exact fish you will receive.

Curated Collection

Fish within the Curated Collection are personally selected by Obsidian for exceptional quality, rarity or genetic significance. Most are acquired for our own collection and future breeding programme. While a small number are released for sale, they represent the highest standard available from Obsidian Betta Co.

Note

This boy has a slight tail nip at the moment, he chose to have a little tussle with a big male vanda after a slight mishap with a divider failure. Recovering fine but it has happened post this advert going live.
