Female Plakat Koi Betta
The female Betta, also known as Betta splendens, is a species of freshwater aquarium fish that is popular among hobbyists. Females are often overlooked in favor of their male counterparts, but they have their own unique characteristics and can make great additions to community tanks. Female Bettas have a more subdued coloration than males, with shorter fins and a rounder body. They are typically less aggressive than males, although they can still exhibit territorial behavior if they feel their space is being encroached upon. In general, female Bettas can be kept in groups with other non-aggressive fish species, although it's important to avoid keeping them with aggressive or fin-nipping species. In terms of care, female Bettas require a well-maintained aquarium with plenty of hiding spots and vegetation.
One thing to keep in mind with female Bettas is that they can be prone to stress if they are kept in small or overcrowded tanks, or if their water quality is not maintained properly.

Overall, female Bettas are beautiful and interesting fish that can make great additions to community tanks. They are less aggressive than males, but still require careful attention to their care and water quality to ensure they remain healthy and stress-free.
