    Default How do you tell the difference between female bettas and plakat bettas?
    I have always wondered this, lol!
    A plakat is a shortfinned male betta. So no, they do not have longer fins.

    Females have a white dot at their anus. Plakat males don't.

    Actually some males can possess and egg spot so thats not a definate way to tell the difference. Generally a male plakat will be larger, with a longer pointed anal fin, longer and thicker ventrals and will display the "full beard" when flaring.
