Thanks again

some arnt that agressive and will live fine with them others will kill them i put one in a comunity tank before i knew this and in its first night it killed 2 of my guppies so i wouldnt risk it. 4 corys would look nice or 4 tetras

I keep bettas all the time with peaceful community fish. I keep seeing warnings about bettas being aggressive but I have only actually experienced aggression with other bettas.

My advice would be to make sure you have a back up tank incase anything does go wrong -- min 3 gallon - to house the betta if all does go wrong

Chances are good that you'll wake up one morning and find that your guppy has had his tail ripped off.

Thank you for all your advice I think I will just stick to platy, guppy and neons.

2 x platy female

2 x guppy male

neon tetra x how many can I add to a 10g tank with the 4 others

6 would be ok.

I need to agree with oldman here..Although i always hear about not keeping betta fish with species like neon tetra, i myself have never had a problem

I guess some betta's aggression is different than others..

or you could keep 3 female bettas in there
