Can I mix a female and male betta in 90gal tank with other community fish? @ the pet store now lol, using my phone
 
this may be risky as there are reports of even the most peaceful male and the most peaceful female living together in harmony and then... a sudden mysterious death
even if the tank size is this big there is still a chance of the two finding each other and possible death
id say if yo u MUST use two bettas,
try two sisters (both FEMALE) that have not been separated since birth (other than for breeding, water changes, etc)
but if you are totally bent on using a male and a female make sure there are a lot of plants, and hiding places, e.g. an upside down flower pot with a hole, etc.
however there is not a large chance of possible aggression due to the tank size
 
Thanks for the reply, I'm not sure if its ok for me to have a betta male or female alone with other community fish, the guy at the pet store says no but I thought it was ok..
