They become closer if the male is mating with the female, unfortunately Siamese Fighting Fish (males in particular) are pretty aggressive, they can eat their own fry (babies) and attack their mating partener.
So i would get a community tank, get 2 or 1 female(s) and 1 male betta with some corydoras catfish and everything will be dandy!
They will both eat about the same.
Female bettas can be colorful, but males tend to have larger fins that they flare, as well as more vivid colors.
Male Bettas have more colour, are larger fish and have much larger fins than the females.
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.
That is more than enough room for those bettas. :)
Male bettas are known for their aggressive behavior towards other male bettas, particularly when defending their territory or competing for mates. They may engage in fighting by flaring their fins and displaying aggressive behaviors towards each other. In contrast, female bettas can generally coexist peacefully with each other, although some individual females may also display territorial behavior.
You can put that down to evolution and the survival of the species. That's all. The male is the protector and defender of both his bit of space and his progeny (fry) and he will not permit others of his gender and species to be in his space.
Yes actually they will. As a female African grey would also be more attached to a male person. This is true with MOST birds.
If choosing to purchase a bichon fries dog male or female will have to be picked. Some say the males are more attached and the females are more independent. Check beneath the dog to know if the bichon fries is male or female.
Fish that are compatible with male bettas in a community tank are peaceful, non-aggressive species that do not resemble bettas or have long, flowing fins. Some examples include neon tetras, dwarf corydoras, and ghost shrimp. It is important to monitor their interactions closely to prevent any aggression.
No, probably not. The males would be more likely to kill the females.
Yes you can buy female bettas. the females have small fins and are smaller than the males. also the males usually are more colorful than the females.
