4 Female Bettas In A 5 Gallon Tank

[Mako Man111]

Are 4 female bettas a good number for a 5 gallon tank?

Heck no!!! Go by the inch a gallon rule, not to mention the fact they're terratorial!

At LEAST 10 gallons, heavily planted, and even then they may not get along.

I've tried 4 females in a 6 gallon; that was definately no good. Next time, I think I would try a few in a 20 gallon... some of those females are surprisingly aggressive.

my females fight and bite and their fins never look great but the water qualities good now.i did have 8 in a 23litre tank now im down to 4 and its much better.these fish are always gonna fight,hell anything called a siamese fighter is gonna fight right?id be dissapointed if they didnt!
its the water quality that will kill your fish there,too toxic!
