Female Betta's

[johnny70]

I have 2 sisters in a 35ltr tank with a few small corys, the red female is constantly chasing the white female, no real aggression, should I add a third or would that be a bad idea. Tank is heavily planted with room for more, and plenty of hiding spaces. Could they go into my big community tank, tetra, plec, rasbora, loaches, rams?

Cheers

Def. get at least 2 females, to establish a pecking order. Please don't add other fish, it would just make it worse.

It's better to have a group of at least 5 female bettas together. However right now yours are trying to establish who is top fish.

Sorry to thread-jack, but I have a question and it sorta fits here.

My sister's hermit crab died over the weekend, so I'm taking the 10 gallon tank he was in. I'm considering female bettas, but I'm not sure how many will fit in a 10 gal. I'd also like to try my hand at planting in this tank.
