Betta Question

[amanda_]

What fish can live with a betta? I have read they can't be mixed with gouramis or other labyrinth fish. Is this correct?

 

[WaterPond]

that is correct.

Just dont keep them with any long finned fish like guppies, and dont mix with fish that will nip their fins

Most unagressive schooling fish are great with them.

tetras, rasboras, danios, rainbowfish, blah blah blah

I wouldn't do danios, but tetras and rasboras should do fine. Just make sure they're at a stage of development where the betta wouldn't view them as a meal.

Since bettas tend to hang at the top part of the tank, why not some corydoras?

I have my betta with 3 peppered corys in a 10g. Perfect size and everyone gets along great. =)
