The Female Betta Fish (Betta splendens), often overshadowed by her more flamboyant male counterpart, is still a beautiful and elegant species with her own unique charm. As an adult, she typically measures around 2.25 to 2.5 inches in length, with a streamlined, graceful body and fins that are shorter and less extravagant than those of the male. Female Bettas come in a wide variety of colors, including vibrant blues, reds, purples, and iridescent shades, making them a colorful addition to any aquarium.

Female Bettas are typically less aggressive than males but can still exhibit territorial tendencies, particularly with other female Bettas. They may flare their gills and spread their fins to assert dominance, especially in a community setting. Unlike males, however, female Betta fights are usually less violent and tend to involve chasing or fin-nipping rather than full-blown attacks.

Tank Size: A single female Betta can live comfortably in a 5-gallon tank, though larger tanks   provide better water quality and more swimming space, especially for a Betta sorority. A larger tank also allows for better filtration and reduces the risk of aggressive encounters in sororities.

Water Parameters: Female Bettas thrive in warm, slightly acidic to neutral water. The ideal temperature range is between 75-80°F (24-27°C), and the pH should be maintained between 6.5-7.5. Like all Bettas, females are labyrinth fish, meaning they have a specialized organ that allows them to breathe surface air, so the tank should have access to the surface.

Filtration: A gentle filtration system is crucial for maintaining water quality while avoiding strong currents, as Betta Fish are not strong swimmers and prefer calm waters.

Aquascaping: Female Bettas enjoy densely planted tanks with plenty of hiding spots. Soft or silk plants are ideal, as plastic decorations can tear their delicate fins. Driftwood, rocks, and caves can provide shelter and help create territories in sororities. Floating plants or structures near the water surface also mimic their natural environment, reducing stress.

Lighting: Moderate lighting works well for Bettas, helping to showcase their colors without causing stress. Too much light can make them feel exposed, leading to stress or dull coloration, so a balance of light and shaded areas is important.
