I have a 10 gallon with a Betta, 10 ember tetras, 2 mystery snails, 4 nerite snails. I wanted to add a patrician and get another Betta. The divider had holes so the embers could enjoy the whole tank. Aquadvisor says that I’m at 98 percent stocked with another Betta and currently at 88 percent stocked. How accurate is this sight? I’d add two bubble filters on either side. Can anyone recommend a good bubble filter for 10 gallon? I’ll keep my current filter media.
 
Agreed; I would leave things alone. And you just added 10 baby fish and they’re not even full grown yet. They stay small but maybe not small enough to go through the holes of a divider.

Personally given the option, I think bettas appreciate having more space to swim around anyway and may be stressed by the small footprint tankmates and another betta next door.
