May Be A Stupid Question But....

can they be kept together on a long term basis, im new 2 bettas and just read it on a site
any help appreciated

definatly not.They will scrap with each other till one finaly kills the other or breed then the mlae will kill the female.Its been done but wouldnt risk it.

Female bettas can be kept in groups of 4-5 or more which spreads any agression, males under no circumstances should live together as basically they don't and you will end up with one fish that has killed any other male betta occupant. multiple males can live in divided tanks making sure each male has enough room and the dividers are not see through as the males will stress if they see other males in close proximity. I hope this helps.

I just re read the title....may be a stupid answer but....LOL nope, aggression between males and females is bad I would not keep them together
