No.The tank is WAY too small for two bettas. But you could try 4gallon. BUT!You can't keep two female bettas together in the first place:P You have to have at least three or more(odd numbers work best) to have a good balance of aggression in the tank. For three bettas, you'll need a 6 gallon tank(two gal. for every betta).You'll also have to have lots of hiding places too.

I hope I helped you with your problem!

Female Betta need to be in groups of four or more. They are aggressive and if you only have two, they will likely kill each other. If you have enough of them, the aggression is spread out and they can be relatively healthy and happy.

It is only a myth that female bettas will not fight each other - they are very territorial and can be as aggressive as the males. One will try to dominate the other. Try introducing them after a water change, and try to put them in the tank as closely to the same time as possible, so they dont become too territorial. It is not recommended to put them in a group of three as two may team up and pick on the third fish.

If you notice them fighting, just create a water current manually, as this will discourage the behavior, and after two-three days they should get along fine.

Provide lots of hiding spots for them! This will allow them to hide and rest we they need to.

Never mix male and female Betta outside of breeding a pair. Also, never tank multiple males together because they will kill each other.

Also, it's best to have 2 gallons of water per fish. I recommend a 10 gallon tank with 4 or 5 female Betta. You might be able to house 3 Betta in a 5 1/2 gallon tank, but that won't leave much room for anything else.
