Yes you can just be sure to have a lot of grasses and plants in the tank for the babies to hide in. The guppies are just as likely to eat the babies as the bettas is. So the only difference is there are three adult fish that might eat the babies instead of two. Just put breeder grass at the bottom of the tank and also let some float on the top and you will be fine.

Housing a betta with guppies may be questionable, as the betta could find certain color combinations reason to attack guppies.Its not recommended to breed guppies in betta tank...may b u can keep betta separately if u wanna breed guppies..even after breeding u got to keep parent fish separately from fry till they grow to a fair size as they tend to eat them...

i don't be attentive to something approximately breeding bettas, yet you could shop a male and lady mutually as long as they're in a tank thats 20 gallons or better and there are lots of places to conceal (i'm speaking particularly some flora and pretend logs etc.). the female could do high quality with different fish, in certainty, even men can stay with "white clouds" or some neons as long as they have a great adequate tank that they do no longer sense crowded. :)

Female Betta's eat their young-that is why the male takes over the care and protection of the young. I would not take a chance with new baby guppies.

Yes you can, as long as you have enough plants for the fry to hide
Actually out of own experience
Hope that helps
Good luck

i do not think you can. i would be afraid to put the guppies in the tank with the Betta.

the guppies will breed in the tank but please do the research of what to do when the female lays her eggs and what to do after the eggs start to hatch
