Bluetom Posted January 19, 2006 Report Share Posted January 19, 2006 I just put two female betta into the same tank and they just tore each other apart, is this common? I was thinking maybe getting another one, would this work. I thought this only happen when there was male in the tank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mistymu05 Posted January 23, 2006 Report Share Posted January 23, 2006 Females can be territorial over the tank space and its very unlucky when they do fight. I have three females in the same tank and they get along alrite now tho two of them have been together since birth and the third i only just put back in with them after about a year apart so they tussled a bit at first but i think they got the heirachy sorted out now...... provide plenty of places for them to hide but you may still have to seperate them In general females can go together but like all breeds that have the aggressive streak you do need to watch and anticipate a seperation. good luck on keeping them together Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluetom Posted January 24, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 24, 2006 It was beyond aggressive and it is a reasionable heavily planted tank to I thought would be plenty in hide in. I sperated them in the same tank. It now appears from the behavior exhibiting that the are male and female. The female has become very large with eggs so I'm going to move them to another tank and see if they breed So all work out very well seeing as my male has recently died.
