Females will get along fine with guppies. I have 4 female bettas, 3 cory cats, and 4-5 little guppies in my 30gallon.
I don't know a lot about gourami. They might compete with the betta at the top of the tank for air because both breath air from the surface.
If you want to keep gourami, I...
So in my 30gallon community tank, I currently have 3 cory cats, 3 neon swordtails, 7-10 feeder guppies, and a pleco.
What else can I put in there? I want something that will swim around in schools and make my tank look lively.
I do plan on purchasing 3 more cory cats and 2 more swordtails...
Fry update: The fry is living well! I placed a heating pad under a thick towel and then put the grow-out container on it so the baby has some warmth.
I swear I say another fry in my tank, but I could never find it long enough to catch it!
He is a common pleco.
We have 3 common plecos and a weird one that my sister has.
I've attempted to feed my pleco lettuce once, but she didn't eat it.

Thanks for the help guys!
There's not enough algae in my 30 gallon for my pleco to eat!
Is there some way I can grow algae for him to eat?
He's gotten kinda thin within the last 2 weeks and I'm really worried!
I read somewhere that I can grow a type of algae if I leave a clear container full of water out in the sun...
I have the frame for something like that, I just don't know if I have something I can put on it to make it a net...
My little fry is doing pretty good!
He's made it a full 12 hours in the current container and I fed him so finely ground color enhancing flakes before I left for school and when...
I feed them TetraMin Tropical Granules...
They seemed to be doing OK on them.
I think the 2 fat ones were females and they laid eggs somewhere and before I could find them, my pleco ate them....
Thanks! His name is Fuzzy! He won lots of big ribbons at the fair last year. Him and I were reserve grand champion for showmanship and he got a big blue first place rosette for quality.
He got sick while we were at state, so he won't be able to show any more. But he sired a litter of 6 kits that...
