What fish can you put together with a male betta fish?

First - you want a tank up around 10 gal or so. The smaller "betta tanks" are barely big enough for a betta alone. Assuming you have the space, small community fish like Neons, platies etcs should be fine. Most small bottom dwellers like Cory catfish, small plecos, small loaches etc are fine. Ian

In a 15 gallon, you can have 3 platies with him. In a 10 gallon, you can keep some shrimp or 2 mystery snails. You can even have some shrimp and a mystery snail. Not that many options in a 10 gallon. In a 5 gallon, shrimp only. Below 5 gallons, nothing. The minimum for a Betta fish is 5 gallons filtered and heated. NO: Danio's Tetra'a Mollies Guppies (fancy or not) The Danio's and Tetra's need 20 gallons minimum and groups of 6. They are also very active and will stress the Betta out. Mollies have larger tails, and they need salt in their water because they are brackish water fish, not freshwater fish. Guppies have to long of tails, even non-fancies. And the fancies hove to bright of color. Cory cats are a good choice, but need 20 gallons minimum and groups of 6. The only ones that can go in a 10 gallon is pygmy Cories, and they are kind of hard to find. Dojo loaches need 30 gallons minimum and groups of 3 minimum. They get around 10 inches long. Kuhli loaches are around 4 inches and also need groups, and do better in a 15 gallon minimum.

Any peaceful tropical community fish can be kept with betta fish. Naturally, exclude any potential fin-nippers like tiger barbs or cichlids. Pet shops and fish shops are the best place to get fish if you're getting them locally. True, places like Walmart have them a little cheaper, but much higher likelihood of them introducing deseases to your tank.

A female betta but there is 50% i could be mean

You can put any small, peacefull fish of roughly the same size with a Bettas as long as the tank is heated. The people who say you can't jeep opther fish with Bettas are amateurs who don't know what they are talking about. you can keep Aangelifish and Discus with Bettas. A number of people do.There are no fish you can add to a Betta bowl.. Bettas should not be kept in bowls to begin with. The one tank exception are ananbantid fish- Gouramis- as they are closely related enough to bettas to start a fight. you should also not put nipping tetras with Bettas. The Lemon tetra is a good peaceful choice, so are Dojo loaches, Weather loaches, and Cory catfish. Also White Cloud Mountain Minnows as long as the tank is 74 degrees or less. The cheapest fish are usually at Petco, however, they are also the least healthy., as no one as petco knows how to care for them. So if you buy a fish at petco, make sure they are eating and that there are no sick or dead ones in their tank. Walmart is the same or worse. Do not buy fish from tanks that have a few sick fish in them. Neon Tetra Disease is going around and can attack fish other than neons, and is incurable.

cories are good with bettas some type of tetras can work with them basically you want to avoid 1. fin nippers (tiger barbs) 2. fish that may eat it 3. really colourful fish (male guppies) having said that ive kept a male betta with guppies ive had a male betta with the following fish male and female guppies male and female mollies kuhli loaches neon tetras black neons serpae tetras sailfin pleco yoyo loaches i now have a male betta in with male and female mollies bolivian rams bronze cories kuhli loaches bristlenose pleco oto catfish male dwarf gourami golden pencilfish

If the fish is not Aggressive , or particularly bright and colorful (like big tail). It'll probably get attack. Unless its a big fish. If the fish IS aggressive, but its not another Betta. The Betta will get slaughtered. If it is a Betta (regardless of gender) They'll be a fight.

depending on ur tank size, you can get many fish. right now, i have a blue ram and 12 cardinal tetras with my betta. they seem to get along. my blue rams a jerk once in a while but i haven't seen any nipped fins in my betta yet.. neon tetras would go great with a betta. just make sure the fish aren't aggressive/semi aggressive. they should be small and peaceful. dwarf gouramis would prolly be great as well..

a female betta fish!
