I keep a male betta ina community tank, he's such a good boy, and never bothers anyone..well My mom who knows nothing about fish said he should have a friend lol. But I'm like..I don't think he can! So are famles allowed to be witha male? or is that only during breeding time? thaks for the help. I only know about the males , but nothing on females.

not necessarily.  both genders can live happily with other species, and females can live with their own species in a large enough tank.  you just can't mix male-male or male-female.

Yeah, it IS his colour, but I was wondering  why..I like to question things, all other bettas are bright.
