Female betta question.

[IRescue452]

They seem to me to be easier than male bettas. There is no reason they should die in relation to their species or gender. It must have been bad water or disease.

They are not hard to take care of just hard to keep happy


In a 10 gallon you can get 4-6 girls and no less then three. You need lots of plants (fake or real) and lots of hiding spots. You will have to watch them for a few hours after you put them in to make sure everybody is okay. keep a close eye on them and after a few weeks with all going well it usually stays that way.

And if one is being mean then you need to have an extra tank or two setup just in case. I could never bring them back they would just live in their won bowl and then you can try and introduce them again later.

Wow, those sites were awesome! It made me want to get some even more. I just hate how there is no female bettas being sold around here. I asked every pet store in the town which is like 2 and 3 including wal-mart and none get female bettas. Anyways, I always use to think that the females probably weren't pretty either, but from all those pictures I seen females can be just as pretty if not prettier!

Females only seem to be less pretty because the can become stressed easier and they loose their colour for a bit so ppl see them all stressed out and colourless. But they really are a beautful rainbow
