Betta Finnage Growth

[Daveo026]

Hi all just asking really how long it roughly takes young male fighters to grow there fins i have 2 juvenile males seperate tanks had them maybe 2 months there fins are still short but longer then females

Sorry you haven't had a reply yet! I'm not 100% sure to be honest, but it could depend on what tail type they are too. If you could get some photos of them, we might be able to tell what tail type they are (just in case they turn out to be wild/plakat types). It probably will take a good few months for them to grow in anyway

Like Flute says it depends on the tail type, PK, HM etc.
Also will depend on the growth rate of the fish itself, some fry grow quick, others are slow growers

And growth rate can depend on factors like how much food you feed them, how often, and what you feed. Also, larger and more often water changes seem to encourage fish to grow too
