Should I get a female or male betta fish?

female or male betta??? I have guppies and neons I love betta mayb if yours works I might try it ik females get along relle well with non agressive fish

I have a Male.
His name is Artemis.
He's Real cool,but hes feirce,Hes in his own tank because he attacks everything you put in his tank.
I wouldnt advise putting a male in a tank of other fish.

some famales betta's get along with guppies because I have a female betta and she loves everybody but dont put a male and a female together because if there not breeding shes killing him.

I had a female beta in a 75 gal with a male, and then had some major tank problems and moved them to a 10 gal for a while and she stayed hiden the whole time she died, because she got wrapped around the filter and couldn't move. My male is in a tank full of tetras, and neons, etc... they have no problems with my male beta, just dont get two of them, now my mom has a big tank with angels and the angels pick at her betas fins, but they dont fight but angels are semi agressive.
