Male Betta fish are more colorful and have longer fins than females. If you've purchased your Betta fish from a pet store it is most likely a male.

The physical attributes of the beta fish help you to distinguish its gender. Female beta fish generally have a sharper head, while the males have a larger head and a more broad mouth. Also, male beta fish have larger and more colorful tales than the females. The most convincing proof is observing the egg sack in the females.

Like most species, the male is more colorful. Usually the females are smaller, and also have smaller fins. On the underbelly, there is usually a white spot-the "egg" spot. They may also have dark stripes. Of course, to know for sure, ask the person you got your fish from.

To tell if the betta fish is female check to see a visible egg sack in the stomach area. It looks like a small white dot. Male betta fish tend to have bigger crowns and mouths.
