Aquarium Setup: Female Bettas thrive in tanks of at least 20 liters, with plenty of plants and decorations to provide hiding spots and reduce stress. A gentle water flow is recommended, as Bettas prefer calmer waters. While female Bettas can coexist in sororities (groups of 4–6 females), ensure the tank is large enough and well-decorated to minimize territorial behavior.

Behavior and Compatibility: Female Bettas are generally peaceful but may display mild aggression toward each other or similar-looking species. They are compatible with other peaceful community fish, such as tetras, rasboras, and Corydoras. Avoid housing them with long-finned or overly aggressive tankmates.
Growth and Maintenance:
Female Bettas grow up to 6 cm and are relatively hardy. Regular water changes and monitoring of water quality are essential for their health and vibrant coloration. Their inquisitive nature and striking appearance make them a joy to observe in any aquarium.
