So my wife lost her job today and brought her betta home. We have a 30 breeder with a few guppies, neon tetras, a female betta, an angel, and a few bottom feeders. Would the male be ok I'm the tank with the female?

It will likely bully her, especially if she is solitary in the tank. I have heard that having a trio of females in a tank with males can spread the aggression and breeding drive. A small tank or vase can work temporarily if given adequete water changes, at least for the short term.In the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is king.

Why not leave the male bettas in where they are now?
The male betta will harass the others and the angel will most likely nip at all the betta's fins if it's a fancy tail700g Mini-Monster tankComment
