Answer 6

i personally do not fight my bettas, but it's a tradition in thailand (seeing as this is the origin of the species) however... i had two females in a tank with a wall in the middle... my big one jumped the wall and the little one KICKED THE LIVING c**p out of her!!! she had shredded remains of fin left... that have now grown back 8) anyways... its kind of cruel, but then again we put them together.. we dont MAKE them fight its their mentality.

Answer 7

you know, my brother had like 30 of em one time. put em all in the bath tub, whoever lived could stay. but he  was so mangled at the end, he eventually died soon after. so yeah, my brother did.

Answer 8

I do not, and never will but i was on a forum with a professional betta breeder from thailand and he was talking about how people betta fight. It is much different than putting 2 pet store bettas in a bowl. The fish are conditioned well before the fight, then put together, and they fight until a fish is obviously not gonna win. They then take it, heal it as best as possible then set it free in the rice paddies (the natural habitat).

I still think it's horrible though :/
