Can male crowntail bettas be with tropical fish?
What about a dwarf gourami and a platy?
^Live together peacefully for the most part.
Ex: The United States and Canada coexist peacefully.
Just wanted to share my knowledge, I like grammar

Sometimes bettas get along with dg's, but it is not usually recommended. It works for some people, but I would avoid it if I was you. Platy? That depends on the betta.
