Hmmm this is the one that i thought would be ok?? Because in my local pet shop all the fighter fish are in seperate tanks with shrimp roaming around at the bottom?? Or is this there food? lol

Are these all in the same tank??
Some Bettas get on fine with Shrimp......if these fish are in the same tank I'd be more worried about the Danios and Tetras picking on the Betta as they a notorious fin nippers!!
