arent female bettas suppose to be able to get along together ?

i had two together and one picked on the other one so i had no choice to seperate them.

They can be kept together in some cases. Female bettas are still territorial and will fight. When putting females together, you should keep at least 4-6 females together to spread out the aggression and make sure that there are a lot of hiding places for the weaker fish to get some alone time.

They can get along but there should be at least 4 to spread agression.

ohh alright.
i was thinking about breeding a female with this gorgeous male i bought a few weeks ago. But im not sure..

Well since the're situated in there tanks i'll just leave them happy and content. Why stress them =)

and even if you buy 4-6, it doesn't guarantee they will be peaceful and civil.

i had lots of fin nipping and i was worried for a couple of weeks.

i had to take some out, heal them up and then move things around when i re-introduced them.

it took close to 3 weeks for them to finally work things out. but it wasn't a very carefree time leading up to what i have now.

i am just happy that they are no longer causing me such stress and getting all along.
