Size Difference?

[Andreeuh]

Two of my female bettas died recently and now only two are left in the 10 gallon tank.. Do you think it would be okay to put two different female bettas in there? Will the size difference matter? The two females in there now are full grown.. and the ones they sell at the petshops are always babies (around 4-6 months). Would the size difference cause any riffs between them?

Size shouldn't make a difference, it's more personality of the fish that matters. Also, when you're adding the new girls, I'd take the two girls you have already and put them in cups while you rearrange the decor (since they have territory established already) and then put all of them back in at the same time. Good luck, and take pics of the new girlies whenyou get them!

Once added to the tank, keep an eye on them for a while, as the Female Bettas can be even more vicious than the males.

And that doesn't apply just to bettas, either!
