What other fish can I put with my female betta?I have a 2 gallon tank...and I would like to get at least another fish to put with her! But what kind of fish?

another female betta.

female bettas can sometimes be kept together but in groups of 4+ unless you have two very peaceful females which can be hard to find. Its also good to keep 2 gal per female depending on aggresion.You could try if you really want to but be prepared for aggresion. Is your tank heated b/c not many tropfish will do well in unheated tanks. I would reccomend just getting a bigger tank so you can keep more fish(always a good excuse for more tanks:)

i would say go for a 10g for 2-3 females

I would not put any other fish in a 2 gallon. I have a 2.5 and can't imagine having another fish in there.

yeah....after i start to think about it...i was wrong yeah i would get about a 5-10 gallon before putting any other fish in it.

I don't know what i was thinking.

Get a ten gallon. Another betta female. Maybe some guppies or some rasboras.

With female bettas, the more the better. So that would mean a bigger tank, though it doesn't have to be huge.

I have 3 females currently, all housed separately. I'm not feeling the vibe to start a sorority. Unlike my males, though, my females genuinely seem interested in looking at one another (my males instantly turn fierce and I don't want to stress them) so it keeps them busy.

One of my females I adopted from someone online. She had been part of a sorority before (with her old owner), but had been such a bad seed that she ripped into all the other females (there were at least 4 females in there).

So some girls are just plain mean. And I hear most are territorial to an extent.
