Betta Fish with Other Fish

So bettas are famous for coming in a cup. They live in bowls by their lonesome. But do they truly prefer solitude? Is it possible to keep a betta fish with other fish even though they cannot be kept with other bettas?

The answer is yes! In fact some bettas do better in an aquarium with other fish! Fighting fish, as they are so commonly referred to, are quite varied in personality. I have owned bettas that refue to get along with other fish but I have had bettas that LOVE being around others!
