Betta Fish?

What Fish would be able to Be in the same Tank with a betta in about a 2f Tank. Thanks!
Answers:
You just can't keep two male Bettas together. You can keep one male Betta in a community tank perfectly well with other fish like red eye tetras, catfish of any type, angelfish, swordtails, guppies, etc. ...Standard community fish.
Hm, I don't think it's a good idea to put any other fish in with the betta. Bettas are known as a fighting fish, so I wouldn't jeopardize another fish's life. lol. =) good luck
NONE!
fished without frilly long fins and neon fishes.
I do not really know, but I believe is a good idea to keep Beta's separated.
any other fish except gold fish and another betta
betta fish can't be in the tank with other fish, not even other bettas. they kill
ummm nothing becuz betta fish are very voilent
they can only be on a tank by theirself
unless u put a divider in the tank
none at all when having betta fish not even a female and male get along that much, but that would be the only choice, because betta fish r fighter fish and they like to be alone and if they aren't then they usually kill the other fish
i dont think u can put a fish in the tank with a betta fish. the fight every fish that is in the tank with them.
hope i helped
algee (spelling) ,eaters can
none. betta fish are supposed to be alone. they kill anyone in the tank. even another betta fish! if you put a mirror it will kill itself for hitting the mirror so much.
anything thats not bigger than it or smaller than it, cause betta eat baby fish so i would recommend platties, or regular gold fish
I have a betta in with other fish in my 20 gallon tank. These fish fight with the same species, not others, so as long as you dont put another betta in, he'll be fine. I have Angels, a Swordtail, Neon Tetras and Glass Catfish. It doesnt have a problem with any of the other fish.
NONE! I had a Betta you CAN NOT put them in a tank with any other fish they will fight it and kill it!
That guy who said he's from a university is full of crap! Naming all those fish sure go a head and all the poor fish will get attacked by the Betta! I had an angel fish with the Betta years ago NOT knowing I had to seperate them! The Betta took a BIG bite of the Angel fish's fin out!
Any fish that is not a Betta, doesn't have frilly fins and isn't small enough to become food for the Betta. Smaller fish will sometimes nip at Betta's fins. I've had gouramis and sharks with them before.
Go to a specialty fish store and ask.
I had neons with mine, but only a couple in such a small tank
betas dont get along with other fish, it wouldnt be a good idea to put another fish in with your beta
beta fight. and also beta fish are almost blinde.. it is suggested to not put them in big aquariums because they will have trouble finding their food.
maybe a gold fish. i had a betta fish and we put about 2-4 gold fish in a tank and it didn't do anything to the gold fish.
A two foot tank? I am not s ure how many gallons that is, but bettas do well with dwarf frogs and with those cute cory catfish. They also do well with some of those schooling fish, as long as they don't have long fins so as they can be mistaken for male bettas, or don't nip at the betta's fins (neons will do that). If you have females sometimes you can find some that will live together in a beautiful tank full of colors. But DONT mix a male in with females. good luck!
PS, NOT a goldfish! Bettas need heated water, and goldfish are coldwater fish who aslo get BIG and are messy.
None..
A betta is a viciouse cloned fish :)
In pets stores they are always seperated for the other fishies.. do you know why?
Well, Because a betta would seem nice but it would eat all those fish there :(

Hope that helped!

None..but you can place a mirror on the outside and watch it fight with it's reflection! They're not hospitable when it comes to guests.
a beta needs to by itself. It cannot be with another fish or it cannot be with a beta. Beta's like being in small areas accoriding to the pet store.
none i think. they fight. but if u would like something cool, u can dye their water. no guarantees, but ive been dying my Betta's water 4 a couple of months now, and they r still fine.
depends on if it is male or female.If it is a male than you cannot put another male or aggressive fish in there.Two male betta's will fight to the death.And aggressive fish will chew the fins off which will also cause death.
Tetra's, standard goldfish, any peaceful fish. Nothing with long flowing fins or the betta will say, hey a new toy. We had a couple of rainbow sharks and some tetras with ours.
a placostamous
I have a male betta in my 20 gallon tank. He gets along just fine with my rainbows (a turquoise and a pracox), long-finned rosy barbs, tetras, a jelly bean parrot fish, and a pleco. Have never had a problem with him.
Bettas only challenge or fight other Bettas. They are territorial but they don't bother other fish.
The biggest problem you'd have keeping a betta in a community tank is keeping the other fish from nipping his fins, tail off.
You'll have to do some research, but I think Gourami will be safe- cichlids.
No guppies, neons, angel fish, or any tiny, darting fish, as they're really quick and prone to ripping fins of slower fish.
I think gourami %26 cichlids may have air bladders, too,
which means they can breathe regular air, like the betta.
The plecos and other algea eaters are ok in the tank, too.
