Anyone know whether a male betta and a couple of tiny endler's might make good tankmates in a 5 gl hex? I've had my endler's for awhile and haven't seen any signs of fin-nipping, but then again, they're not in with anything that ight provoke it. Thanks!
Betta and Endler's?

It all depends on the temperment of your betta, and how stocked your tank is. If it's too full of endlers, your betta might become a bit overwhelmed by so many fish in there and not enough room to get away, but if its just a few and he's got the right temperment and there are hiding spots, then he'll probably be okay. Just keep an eye on the behavior of all the fish.
I have 4 endlers in my betta tank, they are all female bettas in a 20gal with the endlers and they get along great.
Maybe like 5 Endlers. I'm assuming the betta is a veiltail, so watch that the Endlers don't fin-nip. If they do fin-nip, remove them or the betta.
