It took about 200 shots to get the lighting right and the fish in the right position. Convert from RAW, slight rotate and crop, neat image, curve to improve the contrast on the red channel, resize, sharpen, save for web.

awwee, I love Beta's and ran a rescue for years.. I sure hope this guy has a big tank to swim in, with out any plants.. So, now that that's off my chest, I like the white background & soft lighting. Only thing I think would improve this, imho is a tighter crop.. The negative space at the top doesn't really add anything to the image.
