Keeping Betta Splendens females together?

I read on WikiHow that you can keep multiple female Betta fish together. Is that true? How big does the tank need to be? What else should I consider?

Thanks in advance for answers 🙂

I’m holding 5 females together at the time, and I’ve been fine for years. I think that you have to hold them individually. My oldest is now 3.5 years. A proud age for a Betta. You have to look after the charkter. Of course there are also females who are aggressive but not all long ago.

In the beginning, they will threaten each other a little bit and pluck each other at the fins. If the ranking is then such behavior should no longer occur.

I recommend an aquarium with at least 80cm length and very strong planting. If one of the females doesn’t understand each other, you should have a plan B. Either another aquarium or someone who takes it away from you.

Even females can be very rough! If you want your animals to live long then keep them alone. This saves you a lot of stress

They don’t need much, fighting fish swallowing air.

You can keep females together without any problems, but males would be ripe.
