Tank Mates:

• Female Betta Sorority: These Bettas can thrive together in groups of three or more females (sorority), provided there is ample space and hiding spots to reduce aggression.
• Peaceful Community Fish: They can coexist peacefully with non-aggressive community fish like tetras, rasboras, and corydoras.

Substrates and Tank Decorations: Provide a soft substrate like sand or smooth gravel to prevent any potential damage to their delicate fins. Include live or silk plants, rocks, and driftwood to create a natural and comfortable habitat.

Suitable Plants: Live plants like Java Moss, Anubias, and Amazon Swords offer hiding spots and create a lush environment that benefits both the Bettas and other tank inhabitants.
