As above really just wondering on how many i could keep in my tank with my other community fish??
i currently have 3 danios, 2 platys, 1 dwarf honey gourami, 2 bubbled molly's and a plec and 2 female betta's.
Also would female betta's be ok with guppies??

You should not keep girls in a group of less than 4. You could easily add another 2 or 3 to your pair to form a nice soroity.

I wouldn't go with guppies . It isn't worth the risk. You may end up with a brutish girl who will see the long fins of a guppy as a great plaything. Shredded tails do not make happy fish. Girls can still be pretty bolshy towards other fish, and since you can't know what the fish are like until you get them home, it's a real gamble. I wouldn't bother with guppies if I were you.
