Hi I am still rather new, but raised fish before. I just have a question regarding baby Bettas. I currently have 3 baby/juvenile female Bettas:

Luna- white with red fins measures a little less than an inch; Iā€™ve had her for about 3 months

Jaws- brownish reddish, measures a little less than an inch. Iā€™ve had her for about 3 months.

Bubbles- white with turquoise fins, measures 1/2 an inch; I bought her 2 days ago because she was the tiniest and is missing part of her tail.

Sooo, I kept Luna and Jaws in separate tanks next to each other for about a month. Then I put both of them in a cycled 5.5 gallon tank which is their current home. At first it looked like they were ā€œsniffingā€ each other but no pecking or fighting. Awesome!

Question: I will be transferring Luna and Jaws to a 10 gallon in about a week (when tank is done cycling). I would like to add Bubbles but Iā€™m concerned because she is still tiny and sickly; currently in a 1.5 gallon tank next to Luna and Jaws. Would it be ok to add her to the 10 gallon first, then Luna and Jaws?
 
It should be fine to add the smaller Betta first and then the bigger ones later. Just monitor them and if the bigger ones look like they are going to bash the small one, move it out.
 
Ok thank you :)

Here are some pics to see the difference in their size:
