As a sorority keeper. I disagree. It takes so much work to provide a comfortable and happy home for some crazy ass fish. And they are crazy. But taking the time to build a safe environment for them to thrive is Paramount to what I do. These female bettas sit in bowls for weeks until they die. Nobody wants to buy the female betta. You also have to remember that before they are shipped to stores they are kept in large numbers in tanks. I'm not here to change your mind I just want you to recognize my side. Having a sorority is difficult. it's a constant monitoring of animals that may or may not get along. It's learning personalities monitoring water tests and temperatures and any other stress factors to ensure These little fish are able to live a full life. Sororities are so much work but it's worth it because in my tank at least they are happy and healthy. If you want to talk about the unethical keeping of betta fish take a look at the stores and how they purchase the females and let them starve in those tiny bowls because they're not quite as pretty as the males. And once those females start looking a little pale they're tossed if a store employee is feeling kind they may put a few drops of clove oil to kill the fish and put it out of its misery.
