Betta - Female Dumbo - BFDD

Only one male Betta should be kept in an aquarium. If you decide to keep females it is suggested to keep more than one female, so any aggression is spread out amongst the females. If you are interested in introducing just one female for breeding purposes, you can use a breeding box that would allow the fish to see each other without attacking each other and then releasing the female if they appear to be compatible. If all goes well, during courtship the male will wrap the female and she will drop her eggs which the male will collect and place them into a bubble nest he has created. The female should be removed from the tank after dropping her eggs.
