Thing is with colour is that you can call it what the heck you like. I mean, you see red bettas being sold as blood bettas, yellow as pinapple etc. I'd guess steel blue, possibly?

I think your asking if there's a name for that spicific color of betta, but there isn't. Its just what the breeder d ecided to sell it as.

If it's the colour I think you mean, it's usually called black orchid

What? You don't like the color orange? Well thats not true because I went over to your house while you were out and I saw that you have hundreds of orange bettas and I saw several pics in your bedroom with you in orange clothes
