They are one and the same. The Betta splendens is commonly called Fighting fish, Chinese fighting fish, Siamese fighting fish, Malaysian fighting fish and just Betta. Two males will fight to the death and a male will kill a female if she is not prepared to spawn with him. He will also kill the female after she has spawned. So the rule is only one Betta splendens to a tank.

Yes. It is only male Bettas that will fight and then they will only fight other male Bettas.
Betta Fish can only be with some fish. Two male betta fish cannot be with each other. A lot of the time other fish can't be with betta fish. DO NOT put fin nippers ( like tiger barbs) with bettas because they with bite at their long tail. You can put two females together but they have to be in a at least 10 gallon tank with lots of hiding places.

Mostly, betta fish are aggressive and will eat smaller fish.

I hope I helped!

They can. Mostly you should only keep one male though because they might fight. I don't speak from experience because I have 5 male bettas and 7 female and they are very peaceful. Still you should keep at least 1 male so they can breed.

Females can be. Males need to live one Betta to the tank - you can have other fish in with him, but no other bettas, other anabantids, or any other long-finned fish.

Well, if you love your Betta fish, then it should live by itself. But if you add another Betta to your current Betta fish's tank, then they will start a fight because Betta Fish are Siamese fighting fish and if one Betta is in contact of another Betta, the possible reason would be a fight between them two.


What other fish will not fight will a Betta in the same tank?

Male Betta splendens fight with other male Betta splendens so the answer is most other fish will not fight with a Betta in the same tank. To try to list every species of fish here would be impossible.
