Hi I am am new here.

I wanted to ask a quick question about community tanks I have a 71 liter tank which i am planning to get sister female betta how many should I get and our there any other fish that you all can suggest other then Harlequin Rasboras and X ray Tetras I do like these but how many can I have in my tank? It will be completely planted soon.With lots of hiding places and have a another spare tank just in case a fight breaks out. I would love the help before I set this up completely just have to disinfect and prepare the tank(cycle etc). I have blue gravel, with a plant backround. I would love any surgested ideas
Thank you so much for reading this.

Hiya
You could have some corydoras, I like panda and I have some in mine. Harlequins are a nice addition for sure but they need to shoal and be in groups of 5, so with these I would have 5 female betta and 3 corydoras. And nothing else. That's plenty stock for a 71 litre.
 
I recently brought a betta because i saw my LFS had one in their community tank, since my is a planted tank with Brilliant rasboras decide, so i decided to add one on saturday they chased so i took HER out.

PUt her back yesterday and feel asleep, woke up in the morning and they were minding their own business!!!.I guess the bettas was too slow..

Looks like females arent as agressive
 
:good: Thank you guys lovely help!!
I will get those this it will look really good !Which Corydoras were you talking about? I have seen the Dwarf (Pygmy) Corydoras which look lovely. Why 3 though isn't that really strange to have fish not in equal pairs?

Thank you so much
