Female Betta Fish

[crazy fish]

Hi all,
I am looking for female betta fish for awhile ago and still searching for one. Does anyone know where I can get female betta fish?
Thanx

It's much easier to recommend somewhere if we know where you are

Without knowing your home city, I can tell you that where I live (Washington, DC Metro Area) they are not sold in stores such as Petco and PetsMart...they ARE sold (oddly enough) in some of our Walmarts.


A better place to look might be your local aquarium shop or local petstore....the smaller (not chains) pet stores tend to have many female bettas. Of course, that's where I live.

if you do find a place that sells females make sure that what you buy is in fact a female and not a round tail. i bought a "female" for a community tank that (to the dismay of my other fish) turned out to be a male.

I will check out the Walmart to see any luck.
