[QUOTE="fishobsessedt, post: 2013443, member: 729397"] The Betta will actually get along well with the tetras, platys and the cory's if they are kept in schools, and your tank is big enough (I've kept Betta's successfully with these fish). If your tank is too small, this will pose a threat on the Betta, and that's when they become territorial. They are usually quite shy fish though and they normally keep to themselves in community tanks. I would add in the corys first to cycle the tank, and then add in the tetras and the Betta. Then add in the rest however you like. Just add in one or two fish at a time on a weekly basis. Betta's are capable of attacking other fish, I had one that attacked my pleco once, but as I said, they usually are good community fish to have in your tank :) [/QUOTE]
