The personalities of each betta in the sorority are the most critical component. You won't experience any issues if they're all calm.

But all it takes is one hostile betta to start harassing the other calm bettas in the tank. Picking bettas who are aggressive enough to defend themselves but not bold enough to be bullies is ideal.

The tank size will also be a key consideration when setting up a betta sorority. They'll wind up continuously encroaching on each other's territory if it's too little.

·         It's the Betta Age

As we briefly mentioned earlier, the minimum tank size for a betta sorority is 20 gallons. In this approach, 3-5 fish can be kept together comfortably; if you wish to maintain more, you'll need a larger tank.

I like to offer each additional betta 3 gallons of tank space as a general guideline to lessen the likelihood of violence.

There will be times when you can't keep your sorority together, even if you've done your best to make the tank as hospitable for all fish as possible.
