I'm quite disappointed about the lack of information regarding female fighting fish anywhere on the internet. Most people only seem to care about the males, unless breeding. Bit cruel.

I've heard you shouldn't put two together. Go with 3 or more. I'd like more information on the keeping of girlies too!

ok well only got 2, but i can get more next time but it will be a while and might overcrowd my tank,

sharks are a non no with female bettas as are tetras everything else should be fine though just you'll have to up the amount of your girlys though 5 or 6 i would reccomend just add some extra filtration if you feel you need it

You might get more information in the Betta forum? I've also heard you need more than just 2, something about balancing out the aggression or something.

ok well wil they manage til after christmas,also will the tank manage im full now.

how big is the tank?

i'm not a shark expert, but i've heard they can be pretty fiesty with each other.
and i know boy bettas and gouramis do not get on at all, not sure if it's the same with girls, but i'd be wary.

if the 2 girls start to look like they're battling, seperate them into the their own tanks.

def a no with the gouramis they will fight. tetras can be nippy so i would avoid that. And two isnt a good number, they are best in bigger groups 5/6.

 

[killifish1]
