I know this issues comes up alot, but I was wondering what fish are compatible with most bettas?
I know for a fact that corydoras catfish are okay, but are there any other fish?
Thanks.

Some people have luck with keeping other fish with bettas, however most of the time it does not work out very well. Every betta that I have had does not get along well with others this has also included snails. Also I recently got a male from my local petstore who was in a tank with a bunch of platys who were nipping at his tail, which I am currently treating.
If you are concerned about your fish being lonely then don't be. I raise all of my bettas by themselves, including the females and they enjoy my company more than that of other fish. Bettas are very territorial and their long fins make them prone to attacks by other fish so they are fine by themselves.

White clouds seem to do plenty well with bettas, there is some chasing, and the bettas will flare, but all in all they do get along well, but, you should have a school of these fish, I'd recommend 5+, so this is only if you have a tank large enough to support this amount of fish. I'd recommend a 10 gallon or more aquarium. I also have a male crowntail in a community setup, with four angels, a male swordtail, a female swordtail, two corys, and 4 clown loaches.
