Yes, but you can only have one male betta fish or there will be non-stop fighting between them that's why they are known as Siamese fighting fish.
Also, the male may kill the female if he isn't in the mood for breeding, if he doesn't like her for some reason, and if she lays eggs. They should only be together under supervision if you want them both to live for very long. As well as that, it would be smart to put lots of hiding spots in the tank so the females can hide from the male for some reason.

Very true facts. It likes having a brother who has two sisters. Word of warning to my dear male friend. Treat both of your sisters equal. Your life will be so much been. My brother did a great job with our older sister and me.

∙ 11y agosometimes. every betta is different i keep 1 male betta with 3 female betta sometimes the females beat him up sometimes he beats them up. its best to get a young male betta so he will get used to them what i do to kinda test the male how he does with other fish with long fins i get a few male guppys i try to take the biggest most colorful guppys and if he beats them up don't get a female if he ignores them give it a try i would watch them for a while and even then he might still beat her up in this case take the male and put him in a mason jar (punch a hole in the top for air) and let him live in there for a few days this will make him fell like the tank is not his anymore it is now the females don't take him out for to long or the female may beat him up (this happened to me when he was gone for a week he was taking care of his fry when i put him back with the females they ripped almost of his fins off hes growing them back nicely now he will be fine) but if he is gone for to long put all the bettas in separate mason jars for a few days and put them back together(this also happened to me x_x)

Can you put two female bades with one male in one tank?
I am assuming you mean Bettas. A male Betta needs to be kept away from all other Bettas. They can not be kept together. The male would kill at least one of the females. Then he would either breed with the living female and then kill her if she is not removed or he will try to spawn her and if she is not ready he will kill her anyway. This is how the Bettas evolved. Although they will mix with most other species OK male Bettas will not tolerate another Betta in their tank.
