If they are both in breeding condition a nest will be built and the female will usually be spawned out within a few hours. Following this, if she is not removed quickly she will be killed. If she is not in breeding condition and fails to show an interest in spawning she will be killed if she is not removed. A Male Betta will not suffer another Betta to be in its immediate vicinity. However they are peacfull with all other species and are often bullied in community tanks.
