Betta apollon is a species of gourami. It is a freshwater fish native to Asia, where it occurs only in shaded hillstreams in Thailand. It is typically found in shallow, close-to-shore portions of streams in the vicinity of roots, plants, or leaf litter, although it may also be found in fast-flowing areas between boulders.
