I've been getting quite a lot of stick recently about tagging some of my photos HM when the fish are not necessarily at full flare. Funnily enough the people that were moaning will not show their names but here is proof that the fish they were picking out are full halfmoons. A halfmoon betta does not constantly show 180c spread but only when they flare, I do not only take photos of my Bettas flaring, please take this into consideration. Not all of my Bettas are halfmoon but all of them have full halfmoon genes (bred from HM x HM), I generally only breed from full HM males.
