Male bettas have a long tail fin, and they are brightly colored; more so than the female which is a dull color. She has a short tail.
bettas are very territorial fish, the males fight for their territiory.
Boy bettas have really big fins and are very colorful, and girl bettas are pretty much the opposite!
They see them the same as other male bettas,as competition,they cannot tell the diffrence between their reflections and other bettas.
the males have longer fins
if their full grown they are ready.
the girls wont fight
boys are better for lots of reasons that i can not write out as there are to many
Yes you can if your tank is set up properly and at least 5 gals capacity. They require similar water conditions. Male Bettas only fight other male Bettas. They will not fight with other species.
With bettas, the males have longer fins, even the plakat (short finned) type.
This is a BIG NO NO!! Bettas need at least 2.5 gallons of water to themselves, and if you put a male and a female together, it will most likely result with you have two dead bettas. Keep your boy and girl in separate 2.5 gallon heated tanks.
Bettas originate from Southeast Asia.
Male bettas should be kept alone. Female bettas can sometimes be kept with other fish, but in a large community tank. Bettas need their space!
