Bleeker (1850, 1858) indicates Ikan Wadder Bettah as the local name of Betta trifasciata Bleeker, 1849 (now Betta picta, Valenciennes, 1846) in the Ambarawa Javanese dialect.

Web Edition (https://www.trussel2.com/acd/).; midas: The specific epithet is an allusion to the Greek Midas, a mythical king whose touch turned everything to gold, arising from the iridescent gold opercle and body scales. A noun in apposition..

Short description
Morfologi | Morfometri
Taggstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt): 1; Mjukstrålar i ryggfenan (totalt): 8-10; Taggstrålar i analfenan 1-2; Mjukstrålar i analfenan: 25 - 29; Ryggkotor: 31 - 32. Can be distinguished in possessing the following combination of characters: relatively thick-set body (body depth 24.3-29.0 % SL); head devoid of pattern except for black stripe that runs from black lower lip, through eye to edge of opercle; opercle with gold iridescent scales when live; belly and body with gold iridescent scales; some median caudal rays projecting beyond fin margin (Ref. 81926).
Facultative air-breathing (Ref. 126274); A paratype series was collected from a blackwater river running through remnant and intact peat swamp forest, with pH 4.1(Ref. 81926).
