Provided the tank is large enough (1 " of fish needs 1 gallon of water) so allow 1.5 gals per fish and there are sufficient plants and hidey holes for them to take cover in if they are picking on one another, you can keep a few female Betta splendens together. In my experience groups of more than 5 seem to get along OK without any one particular fish being picked on.

Male beta fish are known to kill each other if they are in the same tank.

You could try putting it in with a female, but not with another male.

My advice is don't kill your fish!!!

Male Bettas can live with female Betta fish except when they have laid eggs. Male Betta fish should not be placed in the same aquarium as another male Betta.

How come when you tried to breed your female betta and your male betta and they just act like the other betta wasnt there?

Probably, your bettas were not ready. Remeber that in betta breeding both can be injured or die, so i would do extensive research before attempting it. To try again, put the female in a plastic container and float it in the male's tank, until he builds a good bubble nest. then put them together. if either get injured too much, separate them.


Can you put a female and male Betta fish in the same tank or bowl or will they fight to death?

It's best to only put male and female betta fish in the same tank/bowl if you are breeding them. If they are not breeding and they still stay in the same area, the male would most likely attack the female, so keep the female away! Also, if you are breeding betta fish, make sure to remove the female betta after she lays her eggs, as the male will care for them and chase the female away.

Can you put 2 female betta fish in a 1 gallon fish tank together without a divider?

No. The tank is not large enough to house two female bettas. The basic fish keeping rule is "1 inch of fish needs 1 Gallon of water". A female Betta grows to around 1.5 inches so you would need at least a 3 gallon tank to house the 2 Bettas properly.


Do betta fish fight opposite sex?

A male Betta will attempt to kill any other Betta in its immediate vicinity. An adult female Betta would be courted and if she responds and breeds with him he will not kill her until after she has spawned. She should be removed from the breeding tank immediately after spawning has ceased.
